I dunno... "concealed carry" and "general defense" seem to be things that a bad guy would be interested in as well, unless he's a stupid bad guy. If I was planning to off somebody with a 9mm or similar, "concealed" would be a major advantage until the moment I started aiming. And if perchance my first shot didn't drop the target, and he suddenly popped up with armament of his own (highly likely in the bad guy vs. bad guy case), "general defense" will suddenly be very important to me as well. Remember - if you're returning fire because a bad guy shot at you first, the engineering considerations are the same, and it doesn't matter if you are a good or bad guy. Either way, you'll be looking for the same qualities in the weaponry you return fire with.
