So what do you all carry?

[vmtz]

?

[T210driver]

Springfield Armory Micro Compact .45ACP

[AndyC]

RIA Tactical .45

Well, technically I don't carry it as I don't have my CHL yet, but....

[fastprofessor]

My main CCW is a para ord. CCO. I sometimes carry an HK USP compact, Glock 30, or some other handgun in .45 acp. My backup is either a ppk or SW 642 airweight.

[vmtz]

I have a Glock 26 and 30, but have moved toward my Smith J frame humpback in stainless steel. Of course when I am stuck in a suit my little Tomcat.

Vince

[xcpd69]

Whatever the mood suits me. The list is long, and distinguished....

:biggrin:

What ever I choose to carry, I also carry at least two full reloads.

Hey, If I can't hit them, I can at least make noise until the police come save me...

:biggrin:

[hagar]

Glock 26 mostly, backed up by a Sigma 380 or Kel-tec P32. Car gun is a Sigma 9mm, I got it cheap, and it will shoot rings around all my Glocks except G20.

I also carry an AR15 in the trunk. My wife thinks I'm paranoid, but we had a little "episode" in the AZ desert where my thumbhole stocked L1A1 made for a great equalizer/intimidator against some of our Southern neighbor's finest...:wink: She only thinks I'm partly paranoid now!:bow:

[ggiilliiee]

Bersa .380 back pocket ....
ak and drum mag behind the seat of the truck .....50 cal bac of the bed for long distance calls .....45 on the console ....boot knife on the visor ....4 industrial smoke grenades ......and thats just for going to wal mart on sale day ...women on a mission with a shoping cart can be vicious ....:)

[1MOR]

Inside the pack or inside the waist band. Seventeen more in the full sized mag and, most important, plenty of trigger time. I got this Glock in 1996 and have thousands of rounds through her. She eats it all, including reloads and Woff. She is presently loaded with 115gr Remington Golden Sabers :D

[ALBPM]

A Les Baer Stinger 4" barrel or a Kimber Ultra carry II 3" barrel

[yarro]

I always have a Kel-tec P3AT. If it is not too hot, I also carry a Glock 27 or 22 depending on dress. Sometimes I carry my Scandium .357 loaded with .38 specials.

-Yarro

[Powderfinger]

P-3AT always. Combat Commander as needed.

[panzer]

SA 1911 .45 fullsize moly over park, novak nite sites, "loaded" model I guess. Best part is the summer special holster, love that thing. Also a quick slide for other clothes. When I am at work, I carry an M9, M4 and a M240H sits at the dest pointed out the window.... :biggrin:

[Slo cat]

I carry a Seecamp LWS .32 in a wallet holster. It prints like a wallet, and is about the easiest way to go for me, no matter what my dress or the weather.

Easy to comply with the first rule.

[Goderator]

It varies greatly.. from the Full Size 1911 (Kimber Warrior), to the Glock 19 (daily) or the SIG P239 (also a daily)

[308/223shooter]

Star PD in Starvel with two spare mags. Spanish FR-8 behind the seat of the F-150 when I'm in the woods.

[Booray]

XD 45 Service Model in a Galco Skyops holster

[piperpilot1]

Depends a bit on the weather & how I have to be dressed.

Always a Glock30 somewhere on me.

If I'm in shorts and a t-shirt, then it's in a fanny pack.

In jeans it's either on my hip or in an ankle holster as a back-up to the Glock21 on my hip when I venture into urban areas.

When venturing into the mountains here in Colorado the Glock30 usually winds up in a parka pocket and my S&W 629 3" stainless goes into a belt holster. The bears aren't usually too much of a problem, but mountain lion attacks are becoming more frequent.

[ftierson]

Metalifed Star PD in a Houston Holsters (made in Argentina) thermoplastic paddle holster, Glaser Blues in the gun with a backup mag full of original Speer 200gr JHPs (flying ashtrays)...

For at least part of most every day since 1986...

Forrest

Edited to add the 'paddle' to 'paddle holster'...

[dscottch]

A really big stick. Nicknamed "moses" by the kids. :biggrin:

[FALNOVUS]

Depends on the mood I'm in, but usually a S&W .40 or Glock 21 and always got the P3AT in the pocket

[Otis Treekiller]

2 and 1/2 inch S&W 66 on the cooler days, Colt Mustang Pocketlite when it's warmer.

[BlueDuck]

S&W Model 38 Body Guard for daily carry.

XD 40SC when traveling or it is cold enough for a covering garment.

[MAINER]

Just picked up (yesterday) a Bersa Thunder 9 Ultra Compact to try out. Figuring the snow might be gone by the 4th of July and I'll get a chance to shoot the thing.

Otherwise, I keep a 1911 and a S&W Mod 66 handy.

[whirlibird]

For work a G-30 in a shoulder rig and a G-21 in the duty rig.

For me, a Colt Govt or Combat Commander backed up with the G-30 until I can get the Detonics rebuilt.

[Firestarter]

I thought that Vince carried the pox! :biggrin:

(couldn't help myself Vin!)

[mike minihan]

Colt .45 acp,1911 in cool weather. Warm weather,Colt Agent. At work in an office,NAA .22 mag. I carry an edged instrument also. It works for me.

best regards,


Mike Minihan

[johnsopi]

Glock 23 in a Crossbreed, or a Tomcat in a pocket holster.

[Rifle_Guy]

Colt commander .45 ACP, most of the time. A .380 PPK/S occasionally ( For those times when one must be exceptionally "discrete.")

[k7kit]

Kimber TLE most of the time, a S&W M60 2 1/8" in .357 if I want to go lightweight/smaller.

[renaissance_warrior]

A P-64 Radom/Makarov in 9 mm. Mak w/ Cor-Bon HP and 2 mags. No print carried in the small of the back. A 'poor mans' PPk. :biggrin:

[J. Armstrong]

Usually an Austin Behlert customized BHP in 9mm, or a Les Baer 1911.
Mitch Rosen leather.

[marcus5]

I am a Probation Surveillance Officer for Ga. Dept. Correction an i carry a glock26 and a glock27 they both are great and had zero problems with them.

[Jez Cruzen]

P3AT in a Smart Carry or sometimes a Kahr .40CW (which fits the same Smart Carry)

If driving, I also have a G23 housed in a "Gunny Sack" along with two extra mags.

[Blaster]

Glock 26. Am interested in getting a Kel-Tek in 9m/m luger but don't know if I could hang on to it due to it being such a light weight gun for the 9m/m ctge.

[DYNOMIKE]

99% of the time it's my GLOCK M-27...

IF/WHEN I find a Really good holster I would like to carry my MAK or CZ-82 as well..

For several years before I bought the GLOCK it was my TAURUS PT-99AF..
Reliable gun I had hard chrome plated and worked over by COGAN Custom years ago.. Just a too big for everyday carry though..

Would like to use the CASPIAN .45, but again it's Kinda tough to carry a Full size pistol here in Florida as I almost always were shorts and a Light shirt..

[DJ]

Colt LW Commander most of the time, loaded with 230 gr Hydrashoks. When it's hot and humid, a Colt Gov't .380.

[JimmyT]

Browning Hi- power loaded with Black Talons!

[Timber Wolf]

When I am serious it has traditionally been a S&W 3913 in a cheap inside the pants holster. I like it so much that when I finally had a chance to buy a 4040 PD Airlite I jumped on it to have something similiar in .40 S&W. I paid a lot but like the 4040 every bit as much as I thought I would. That is something that does not happen very often I assure you. I have also been known to drop a stainless Rossi "J" frame with a Tyler T-grip in a pocket holster in my baggy shorts with a Bianchi speed strip in the other pocket. When I do not want to carry anything bigger I go with my P32 and a spare mag. It would be my P3AT but it is not as reliable as the P32. Truck gun is a Smith 457 soon to be swapped out for a 645 I picked up at the last show. I have not shot the 645 enough to trust my life to it yet, and I actually shoot the 457 really well. Bedstand gun is actually two. A Browning HP and a Ruger MKII. The HP for two legged trouble and the Ruger for dispatching critter (we live in the country).

[Jaxxas]

Kahr PM9 (small of back), and sometimes I take along a NAA Pug on a neck chain.

[hongkong3]

Every day carry is a plain Jane series one Kimber compact with two extra mags, for those "special" times I switch to my S&W 442 in a Kramer pocket holster with two speed strips.

[ABNROCK]

In the winter, SIG P220 with a Glock 29 for backup. In the summer, a Glock 29, or a SIG P225, or a HKP7, or a S&W 386 Sc/s.

Rocker

[Retired Bum]

During cold weather I carry a S&W Model 642 Airweight Centennial loaded with Federal +P 129 gr Hydra-Shoks.

Warm/hot weather carry has been the little Kel-Tec P32 in an UM #1 pocket holster. Loaded with Fiocchi 73 gr FMJ which is the hottest .32 ACP FMJ I can find now that the RWS/Geco FMJ hasn't been available for several years/

Bought a new Kel-Tec PF-9 last year with all the so called improvements. I've carried it a few times during this winter loaded with Geco 124 gr FMJ. This could become my main cold weather piece next year if I keep the thing.

And so it goes.


The Retired One

[9thmoon]

G36 and a big, floofy dog with sharp teeth.

[dbbarton]

glock 30 or 38 revolver at times both.

[Windustsearch]

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v317/Windustsearch/IMG_0029.jpg

[jaykden]

lately i've been carrying my glock 20 in the IWB. i almost always wear carhartts so i can fit the extra 15 rnd mag nicely in the right side leg pocket.

works great.

i have a nice, VERY accurate load of 12 grns of blue dot pushing a 155 grn XTP with speeds up to 1350 FPS, still under max pressure but quite abit more snappy than standard factory loads.

i like the knockdown power i get with the 10MM



i used to carry the RIA M1911 exclusivly, but i have to admit the glock prints less and wears more comfortable. also its a choice between 17 rnds of .45 or 31rnds of 10MM. not much of an argument there...

[teamster]

mostly a taurus 85 w/38+P, sometimes a CZ-52 w/ s&b ammo

[RacerRTR]

kel-tec PF9, or a taurus 85 with crimson trace grips in .38 special.

[nightschneider]

P3AT.

just sold the Kahr CW9 and am going to start carrying the Sig 225.

[indy_Muaddib]

am i the only one who uses a CZ-52 for CCW?

[James]

1911 from Kimber, Pro Carry model, lightweight frame with 4" barrel. Inside the waist band winter or summer. I can carry it with a T shirt on and still hide it.

James

[M829A3]

Para Ordanace Tac Four

[Cowbuyu]

Always have my Para Ordnance Carry C6.45 LDA 45acp with a Kahr PM9 as a bug.

[Ssarge]

A Sig Revolution C3 1911. Compact LW frame with Commander length slide. Accurate as all get out. Federal Personal Defense 165gr Hydra Shok low recoil ammo. With the light weight the normal 230 gr. Gold Dot I carry in my full size Sig Revolution and Taurus PT1911 are a bit too intense for rapid fire and quick follow up shots. The only modification I have done is an ambi safety since I shoot left handed now.
http://www.sigsauer.com/Products/ShowCatalogProductDetails.aspx?categoryid=25&productid=165
I carry in a Kilpratrick strong side holster.

[Temp]

Not fancy,.. but it's there fast if necessary. Taurus Model 431 .44 Special. I keep it loaded with 200 grain Blazer Gold Dots. It's always close.

Paid $175 new for it about 13 years ago. It's a good no frills tool,... one of the better concepts Taurus ever came up with, in my opinion. I can't understand why they discontinued them.

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h225/FalMike/MVC-032S.jpg

[tuck0411]

Glock 36 in a cheapo Uncle Mike's IWB holster, which I don't carry in the wasteband, but in the right pocket of my wind breaker. Extra mag in the other pocket and both mags loaded with 185 gr. JHP Remington Golden Saber. Thinking of switching to the 230 gr. JHP Corbons, though.

[FTW2012]

Makarov
or
LLama .380 (baby 1911)
or
Kel Tec P32

Rob

[Quijibo]

Varies, gun-wise, between a Taurus PT145 Mil-Pro, and an FN FNP40.
But my Hawk K-AT is always on my belt. Nice "legal" 2.5" blade..

[daschnoz]

Beretta Tomcat on my ankle every day. Employee handbook be damned.

[W.E.G.]

I'm partial to the Glock Fo-Tay.

But, I have been know to diversify without prior notice.

http://i227.photobucket.com/albums/dd7/rkba2da/pistol%20pics/Glock/glockforty.jpg

[s&w 24]

Taurus 905 as B.U.G. and a SIG 225 as primary. Use 124 =P golddots, Galco pocket holster for the 905 and a summer comfort IWB rig for the 225.

[Ssarge]

I wear a Bren 10 in an Original Jackass Rig with a Detonics Combatmaster on my ankle.
It gets warm here on the Saint Vitus Dance. :shades:

[Jimm2003]

Star PD, though my Sig P6 is starting to look tempting...

[Sgt_Gold]

J-frame, 4" alloy 1911, or H&K45 depending on the weather and dress code.

[Temp]

On dress up occasions,... I slip this 1920 Colt Army Special .41 in my blazer pocket,.... just for the sake of panache', don't ya know?

My "Rolex" revolver,...

http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h225/FalMike/41jpg.jpg

[FIANNAFAL]

Colt Combat Commander in 38 Super and/or AMT in 38 Super also. Left handed so its Galco holsters for me. Also known to carry a Sig 239 in 357 Sig.

[EOD]

Usually a Glock 23 in a Milt Sparks VM-II. Gold dot...but think I'll give the Hornady TAP a look. The wife just picked out a S&W 642 .38 for her first gun.

The Milt Sparks VM-II and Summer Special II are outstanding and worth the money and the wait.

[DABTL]

PM9 in the pocket. CZ RAMI .40 in glove box.

Para Carry6 with a suit.

[Gunny71]

I usually carry my East German Makarov in a Fobus holster with an extra magazine. I like to carry my PT-1911, but unless I am wearing a jacket it's hard for me to conceal well At 5'2" and 138 soaking wet.

[owlcreekok]

Almost plus one, Gunny.

Bulgy MAK in a FOBUS most of the time.

1911 Commander when I can dress for it. (I make effort to dress for this one) FOBUS or Yaqui slide

S&W Model 37 Airweight (exposed hammer) when dressed formally. Drop in a pocket. I keep a rubber stripper with 5 extra +P HP's in another pocket.

[Mebsuta]

Nothing. I don't carry a pistol. If going for a little drive might put 98k in the trunk.

[bykerhd]

I don't normally carry at all.
But, I just picked up a Walther PPK/S .380 in case I feel the "Need".
It goes with the SIG 229 .40 S & W and Colt Commander .45 that might also serve if desired.
You never know.

[Abull]

Glock 23, Colt Combat Commander, Tom Cat. But more likely, my Bulgy Mak. I just love that little gun, hits whatever I aim at and is easy to conceal. Kind of heavy for it's size, but I just can't stand to leave it behind. A Mark Powell group buy gun as a matter of fact, bought two of them. Should have bought four!

Alan

[Cofaler]

G19 in a Milt Sparks EC when it's hot, G22 or a worked over Sistema 1911 in a strong-side belt holster in cooler weather. When I go in the hills I have an old Ruger Service Six in a strong-side thumb-break. An AK usually rides behind the seat of the truck.

[bigant]

M&P Compact .40 and I'm thinking about getting a Sig 520c




I used to carry a Sig 229, but the LoveHandles got into the way:rofl:

[Andy the Aussie]

......attitude.....nothing but attitude...... ;) ;)

[alphadog58]

Colt Pony or S+W model 49. If I need more than 5 or 6 rounds I'm in the wrong neighborhood....

Larry

[MakNorinco]

Glock 26
2 glock 26 mags with 3+'s
1 full size glock 19 mag
gold dots +p+ 115gr for short barreled pistols

[Hot Diggity]

For a couple years it was a Kahr PM9 exclusively, which was soooo much nicer
than the big Ruger P89 I had been carrying. The PM9 opened up whole new wardrobe possibilities, especially in the summer.

Lately I swap around between a couple J-frame .38 snubbies, the PM9 and a 4" 1911 on colder days.

Maybe this oughto go in the *new* "Surplus Handguns" forum, but I've carried the CZ52 concealed, briefly. With surplus ammo there is a large over-penetration potential. It does carry nicely IWB, since it's narrow and slim at the muzzle, but due to its' age, questionable safety features, and without something other than FMJ, it's not a good choice.

Me too.

[superjc]

When I lived in Orlando- full size 1911 Kimber Stainless Match. Now that I'm in Commiefornia and no CCW, it's Mini-14 in the trunk.

When I delivered money for Loomis, it was Kimber in the holster, hand on my HK USP .45 inside the money bag- this way the bank tellers could feel all warm and fuzzy and were never the wiser. Banks are the worst about security, your average Kragen auto is way more on the ball, so sad.

[squid8286]

Browning Hi-Power or SIG 228. Either is loaded with Federal 115 JHP.

[English Mike]

CRKT M21 knife - even that will get me jail time if I can't persuade a Jury that I have "good reason" to carry it (self defence is NOT considered to be "good reason"). :rolleyes:

[Buddy Lee]

About 40 lbs more than I should.

;)

Buddy Lee

[tigerfans2]

I'm streaky, it's normally an M&P 40C but right this moment it's a 3914. Come "stream fishing for whites season" it's likely to be a 3953.

[goldenspurholderx2]

Used to carry a home-smithed, full sized 1911, but since my status has changed to "$hit head that can carry in any state in the union" as a friend affectionally put it I now carry a more litigation freindly unmodified Sig P220 Carry.

[autopic]

P3AT W Gold Dots

[vegasgsxr750]

SIG 228
HK P7 PSP - very slim

[icwells]

Originally posted by Buddy Lee

Buddy Lee

You got a license for that? ;)

I don't have a CCW, yet, but I do carry my Hi Power around the house. I figure having three years' experience before hitting the streets with a pistol in my belt might be a good idea.

[1gewehr]

Star PD and/or Keltec P3AT.

I'm surprised at how popular the Star PD is with people here. Considering it's been out of production for over twenty years!:D

[righttoown]

HK USP 9mm compact on me, Glock G32C in the truck.

[fal_762x51]

For entertainment, I carry the PA-63, but for business I carry a full size 1911 GI.

[John Culver]

Czech CZ82, seems to be comfortable for me.

Though thinking of replacing it with a FN 45

[Brush511]

Originally posted by ENGLISH MIKE

+1 on the CRKT M21 always. When I carry it's usually a full size 1911 or an Officer's model in an Aker yanqui slide. Sometimes a CZ75B in .40. When I need to be really discreet, a NAA Guardian in .380. Out in the woods, usually a revolver.

[twodog]

Glock 23, finely tuned PA63 or the Bulgie Mak.

[Tex]

Glock 22, Glock 27, TRW M-14 ('63 vintage), and an 870.
All courtesy of my boss who I love so much........:cool:

[evan price]

Daily carry is a Sig P239 9mm with 147-gr Gold Dots in either an IWB Galco or a Don Hume JIT slide OWB depending on what I intend to be wearing and how active I am going to be.

If clothing or situation allows it, a Sig P220 with Winchester Ranger 230's in a Galco FBI-cant OWB.

For those occaisions when I am wearing nearly nothing and have to have something, a Jennings J22 loaded with Stingers stuck in whatever crevice is available.

[smokingun45]

Wintertime in CO....anything I want, usually an old S&W 442 or a SIG 228.
Summertime in CO...Keltec .380 or the S&W 442

Oftentimes stick my Walther P22 in a pocket when just bummin around the ranch or local mountain trails.

Non-concealed backcountry pistol is usually a Ruger SP 101 3" .357 w/ 180 gr hardcast lead FP over a caseful H110. Yikes!!!

:eek:

[gds]

Always in my pocket. P3AT

Usually on my right side in a Fobus holster- Stainless commander size 1911 that I put together.

Sometimes a Hungarian Hi power copy replaces 1911.

[gewehrmonkey]

I always carry, every day.
Everyday: either a Glock 17 2gen with 124+p Golden Sabres or Glock 26, in sidearmor or Comptac IWB holsters.
Sickday gun: Taurus 85 with 158+p LSWCHP in Don Hume IWB.
In the woods: S$W 3" 65 with 125 JHPs and 185 JSPs in the speed loader, carried in a Galco pancake holster. Bears, probably not. Mountain lions, Maybe. Tweakers, often.

Depending on the situation, the armament may change to include MarkII (with or without TAC65 suppressor), Ruger Vaquero in .357 mag, or HK P7M8.

[FAL GRUNT]

Either my Springfield 1911-A1 or my CZ-82. I am waiting to build a better 1911 to carry... or find one at a good price, to replace the Springfield.

-myers

[Tsm002]

Glock 19 or CZ82.

Will carry a p11 or NAA mini revolver if it's so darned hot outside that nothing else will work, but I find that the g19 or the cz 82 conceal excellently in a thunderwear rig.

[allobo]

Laugh all you want.......Ruger P-97 45 ACP fiber optic sights, I stippled the grips with a soldering iron, CCI-Speer 200gr +P GDHP's in a Dillon black leather holster strong side, one reload on weak side. Dead nuts reliable and more accurate than my 1911's.

Tried in the waistband but just not comfortable for me. Sometimes, rarely, carry Norinco Nickel 1911 with good sights, commander hammer, beavertail grip safety, long trigger and flas MSH,but load it with Fed 230gr HSHP's.

[Nesrath]

Kimber TLE, 1911, .45 strong side in a Galco Matrix 7 (holds the gun in nice and tight to my side) year round with one or two wilson 8 rounders full of 230 grain ranger +p.

[Skilter]

G36 in the car
G29 in the briefcase
S&W .357 scandium in the dockers pocket
Kel-tec P32 on the joggin trail
G26 in a fanny pack when needed

It all depends (as you all know) on the situation...

I need a Walther for those tuxedo nights though. :)

[Bama Steve]

Sharp pointy stick and a hammer.

What's in your pocket?

[K.O.A.M.]

Glock 33 when in a suit or not readily identifiable as a Deputy. Sig 226 in .357 Sig when I am.

[spatin]

Let me know if you find a good holster, no, I mean a Really good holster, for the CZ-82. I would like to get one to carry mine too.

You guys ought to give Rob @ Tucker Gun Leather a call:

http://rlcompanyusa.stores.yahoo.net/index.html

They are out of Houston, and make some very nice holsters, IMHO:beer:

Kahr 9mm,SA 1911,and S&W 4 inch 357 on occasion.

[Ssarge]

I'm picking up a Walther PPS 9mm tomorrow. My 1911 is just a bit too heavy and bulky with the hot, humid weather.

Don't need a license......it isn't concealed!

[S. Fisher]

I carry my Kimber custom classic stainless every day. Concealed in the winter, open in the summer, no permit required :)

[Azrial]

For dress I carry a little Glock 27.

For Business I carry a Glock 21 or Glock 20 with a TLR-2.

[Thunderbred]

Either my Warthawg or 14-45 LDA, except during those special dress occasions that allow the model 29. Usually have one of my pocket pistols or a derringer along also. Jeff

[dbl-haul]

just switched from a seecamp to a walther PP. sometimes a browning hi power, sometimes a springfield 1911.

[flejl]

FM Hi-Power Detective.

Its the size of a Makarov and still holds 13-15 rounds of 9mm.

I have several other pistols in calibers that begin with a "4", but this one is alot smaller and its a Hi-Power.

[Deltaten]

Usually, some form of Colt's .45....with a DE 10mm back-up:D
SO, what could go wrong?

:D

[jaflowers]

S&W 396 44 Special.

[skwang]

a p3at or sometimes a s&w 64 from time to time (the time I put my pants on to the time I take them off) and a full size springer GI .45 or a compact Tanfoglio in 10mm when not at work.

I would be dissapointed in your name if there wasn't one on stand by somewhere! ;)

My dealer is a HUGE 10mm 1911 fan. He makes a good point when he talks about it. It does have several advantages. The disadvantage is availability and selection. FBI weak loading it pretty much killed it. Norma still has it down. Impressive ballistics.

I will probably be into a new BHP 9mm soon, so I will swap between it and the 1911 when it is up to spec.

[spatin]

"Tanfoglio" - "The Tanfoglio Force, also known as TZ-75, is a modified clone of the Czech CZ-75 pistol. It is made in Italy by Tanfoglio, and imported to the USA by European American Armory (EAA) and called the Witness."

If I'm not mistaken, that was the sidearm carried by Alexander Hope in the book "Hope"?

Never saw one of those in person. Looks nice on the internet pics.

The witness pistols are very nice. Fit the hand well, low bore center and easy instinctive controls as well. Very fine pistols. Grip looks a little wierd, but hold it and you would be a believer.

[spatin]

I'll have to see if I can find one of those. I see they come in several calibers too.

"I see they come in several calibers too."

They sell slide, barrel, spring combos for other calibers.


"Grip looks a little wierd, but hold it and you would be a believer."
+1 I find it just as if not more comfortable to shoot than the big Glock in 10mm.
My hand fills a full size 1911 well, and the compact Tanfoglio has no extra room but my pinky is not hanging off so the grip is just big enough. It also fits completely inside the front pocket of a pair of Carhearts.

Damn, I forgot all about the conversions. If I remember right, its TOO EASY not to have a few top ends around. Good point to mention! They are/were? ( its been years since I was in it ) a popular gun in IPSC circles. Very reliable and would take the .38 super major loads.

[diana-ar15]

Ruger LCP in .380 acp. It is basically a Kel-Tec 380 but with minor cosmetic changes.

Goes in a pocket no matter what!

[Ahroun]

I guess I'm the only one here with a Walther P99.

It's great. I can carry it all day long, and not feel it. It's got no sharp edges to poke me in the side (which age seems to be making bigger...time, not my fault :cry: ) is light, fits my hand thanks to changeable back straps....and it's not a Glock! :biggrin:

Sig 220. Usually appendix carry. I need a round hammer. Anyone got a lead?

[Muggzy]

I carry a pocket knife....'cause IL doesn't have a concealed carry :sad: :mad:

Best we can do is carry in a case with a unloaded gun and mag BUT the mag can be loaded. Then there is the fanny pack carry but that is controversial. Pistol in a fanny pack (unloaded) but with loaded mag.

Not a good State for us people who enjoy firearms and firearms freedoms
and want the abilities to protect our loved ones and ourselves

My carry pistol changes on the situation.

I usually carry a .45 or have one close at hand.......either a 1911 or Sig220.

As of late, I picked up a Kel Tec PF-9, 9mm......7+1 in a very small package.

It is picking up favor as the heat makes the clothes get lighter!!

Muggzy, get out of that nasty damn State of Illinois and you'll most likely have a CCW before you know it. When I moved from Illinois to Colorado, one of the very first things I did was get a CCW permit. I seriously doubt if Illinois will EVER allow CCW's in that State.:mad:

cessna-pilot, What are your impressions of the Smith 642? I've been eying one lately.

Currently I carry a Kel-Tec P11 in the summer and a short Colt SAA .45 colt in cool weather. Yeah,yeah I know it's "outdated" and uncool and all that but I'm more comfortable with a single action than any other type.

Yeah, our three kids are grown and have their own families and we left the whole tribe back in Illinois along with our grandkids. Just got fed up with the shitty Winters, Summer high humidity, high crime rate, high taxes, heavy vehicle traffic, stupid gun laws, requirement to have a FOID and not being able to ever have a CCW. However, I still like seeing the great State of Illinois but ONLY in my rear view mirror.:beer::smile:

Para TAC-S .45 ACP unless it's T-Shirt weather here in Idaho, then it's just the P-32.

In the woods, a Charter Target Bulldog in .44 Special.

The 1911 is in a Sam Andrews holster, the P-32 in a pocket, a pocket holster, or with a belt clip. The Bulldog is in an Uncle Mike's holster. Usually have a reload or two for anything I carry.

I always have some sort of edged tool; e.g., a Benchmade 3" folder or a German Mercator "Cat Knife".

i have shot this 10MM, i have to admit it is VERY comfortable to shoot. maybe not quite as accurate as my glock 20, but lots nicer to shoot.

i would post a pic of my glock 20, but hey! its just another glock!
:tongue:

[Blaster]

Glock 26 and a Kel-Tek .380. The felt recoil of the .380 is sure a lot LESS when shooting it from the wallet holster.

Springfield UltraCompact loaded. Hydra shoks. It is a little heavy. I need to find me something smaller and lighter for the summer months.

Glock 19 on most days, but I've been leaning toward the S&W M&P compact. On odd days I've also been found with a Browning Hi-power or Kimber CDP.

[FALshot]

Depends on the season and where I'm going,...

My trusty Glock19, one of my High Powers, maybe even a 1911. I recently purchased a Taurus "The Judge" in Titanium, and it's been under the seat on a couple of three or four hundred mile trips I've had to take for business recently.

That little "Judge" is one heck of a lot of firepower that only need be placed in the general vicinity of a potential threat's face. (I love that little thing!)

Just depends on what threat level I figure there is where I am going. Most of the time a 5 shot revolver is good enough with two reloads. If I travel I might throw in more firepower with some extra mags. Just depends.

[Chief351]

Well, I originally bought a Browning Hi-Power with the intention of carrying it, but it's just too darn pretty to get a sweated-up and finish-worn.

Bought a Colt 1991-A1 Stainless, but man, it's just too heavy...got tired of always hiking my jeans up, no matter which holster I tried.

Bought a used Glock 21 off of a cop friend. Lightweight, accurate, lots of firepower, but too darned bulky for a concealed-carry weapon.

Bought a S&W .357 Centennial 2+ inch snubbie. Never felt good about only 5 rounds, and I'm too slow on reloads. Besides, if you don't have a flinch, this pistol will teach you one!

Bought a S&W 908 9mm. Not bad, but for some reason I just never liked it - heavy trigger pull, not a good selection of holsters, expensive mags, bear to field-strip and re-assemble.

Bought a Bulgarian Makarov. Now we're talkin'! Cheap mags, GREAT trigger pull, reliable, accurate, lightweight and comfortable to carry, Falcon holsters well made and inexpensive (bought an IWB and a shoulder rig). Those sights are pretty darned small, though. Better practice more, but that 9mm MAK ammo is expensive!

Bought a Bersa .22 as a practice stand-in for the Makarov. You know, I kinda like that Bersa.....wonder about the same pistol in .380? So I bought one, shot it a lot, liked it. Retired the Makarov and now pretty much carry the Bersa. With the .22 and the .380 as a matched set, I can afford all the practice ammo I can stand to shoot, which has got to be a good thing, huh?
