Hey guys I've got a real simple one for you. What is your every day carry gun? Not what rides in your truck all the time or what sits next to your bed, what is the gun the sits on your hip every day?

Parabellum9x19mm
09-12-08, 00:00
Walther PPS and/or SIG P250C

in Winter I sometimes I just want a full size service pistol and instead of the P250, i will carry a P226 ...either a W.German 9mm or a Exeter .40

but more often than not i just have the Walther PPS. its suitable for deep cover, pocket carry or on the hip in a IWB holster. will work in an ankle holster too, which makes it a nice little back-up gun when you want a bigger primary.

akviper
09-12-08, 00:01
A Colt Gunsite 1911, Glock 23, or S&W Model 65, depending on time of year and mood. Yes I qualify on a regular basis with each.

90% of the time a Glock 26 now that I'm living in the South. An extra G19 mag and Surefire G2 handy complete the "carry" package. My G19 would be next and my Colt OM coming in third. My Series 70 Gov't NEVER leaves the safe anymore:o.

At work either a Glock 23 or 22, Colt M16a1, Rem 870 plain jane.

At the other job a Glock 21sf, Colt M4 or MP5.

Off duty, almost always a Glock 23 in my Kramer horsehide IWB holster. (I have been using the Kramer for almost 14 years. It still stays open when I draw my pistol............awesome kit!!!!!!!!)

I have been thinking about switching to a Glock 30 for the chicks dig it .45 factor. After all the reason you carry a .45 is cause they don't make a .46!!:D

MarshallDodge
09-13-08, 17:35
Most of the time it is my Dan Wesson Bobtail Classic-45ACP in a Milt Sparks or Rafter S holster. Kahr E9 when I have to go small in a holster by me.

Yog
09-14-08, 00:53
Carry a 5" Wilson Combat CQB in .45 ACP.

Currently, this is my only carry pistol.

Sincerely,

PRGGodfather
09-14-08, 03:28
Depending on the weather and the clothes I am wearing, a Kahr P40 or a S&W 442 with CTC Lasergrips. If any of my pistols needed a laser, that 442 did. Lasers own the night, and the 442 can be more than just a bellygun.

Federal 180 gr. HST in the .40, and Federal 126 gr HST .38 Spl. (non +P).

I always have my EDC CRKT M16 folder, a SF E2D LED and a reload -- no matter which pistol is coming for the ride.

Fairly light EDC package, and most everything one needs except food and water...;)

Used to be a Glock 19.

Issued a M&P9 almost 3 years ago. I like it so much that I carry it off duty as well. Bought a M&P9c, carry it some. But I can conceal the full sized almost as well, so...

09-23-08, 09:40
It depends on what the weather is like...but either:

S&W 442 on left ankle
Sig 239 (worked over by Gray Guns) at 2 o'clock
Sig 229 at 4 o'clock
I just picked up an XD9 so I will try that out as well and I have a Glock 30 SF on the way...and yes I plan on getting a fullsize M&P45 when the funds allow. I haven't really decided on my primary CCW gun but I usually carry the 239 the most, so I guess that would be my primary with the 442 as my BU. :cool:
