Methods of Carry?

[dvajda]

Depends on situation/season:

Winter: SIG P229 .40 5 o'clock, IWB canvas clip holster 5 o'clock, extra mag front pocket.
Spring, Summer, Fall: Para OPS .45, CompTac C.T.A.C. IWB 5 o'clock, extra mag.
Deep Deep Cover: Used to be Para, now SA XD compact 9mm, IWB canvas clip holster 5 o'clock, no extra mag. This may also be in a galco ankle holster.

Backup: Colorful language.
Blade: None.

courantly glock 23 strong side OWB 4pm

[drgrant]

Here's mine:

HK P2000 .40 S+W LEM
3:30-4 o'clock - IWB - uncle mike's sidekick.
Sometimes spare mag 9 oclock, often not.

Sometimes carry OWB - same position, if I'm going to
be walking outside a lot... Don Hume JIT slide.

Summer is the same, but with Glock 19. I might
end up carrying the P2000 full time now though.

Blade is Emerson CQC-8 (clip rt pocket).

Only the attacker will know for sure, but I've been known to use one or more of the following:

Sig 239 in a Rosen G5 (I really like this setup)
LesBaer 1911 in a HighNoon In Waist Band (IWB)
Kel-Tek P32 in rear pocket Hedley Holster
J frame .38 in Kramer IWB
Firestar .40 in Kramer On Waist Band (OWB)
various other combos. More depends on what I'm wearing than anything. I have one holster that is used for ONE outfit as it sucks for anything else and I wear that outfit maybe twice a year.

Have a few Small of Back (SOB) that I like the comfort of (I never had issues while driving except access) but the prospect of falling on it keeps these in the drawer.

Haven't found a good holster for the .500. Yet. (^_^)

Ankle rigs annoy me. Shoulder rigs never seem to fit the outfits I tend to wear (I own 2 and wore each of them ONCE) but I do like vertical holster versions better. I have Thunderwear and there just never seems to be a comfotable place to put anything I can't just hide in a pocket.

I don't know what it is, but everyone seems to start off with autos, but it's amazing how eventually a few wheelguns enter the mix. (^_^)

SP101 38/357
IWB - plan on getting a good high ride OWB
sometimes a GP100 in Bianchi belt holster
speed strip in watch pocket of jeans or shirt pocket
no backup
Blades - an old Buck lockback 3" blade , on belt , or a Benchmade assisted open clipped in pocket or IWB or a Gerber ,slim profile, in pocket

 

[dbhn]

A multitude of pocket carry combinations of Seecamp .32, always a Kershaw Ken Onion Assisted, Spyderco, or Byrd blade, and always a Fenix L1T or Luxogen CR2 light.

Still working on getting my mid-size CCW (I started small) and always upgrading the blades and lights.

"...combinations of Seecamp .32..."

I'm looking forward to getting my new Seecamp .380 to replace my Beretta Tomcat as my second back-up. My first back-up is my 2" Taurus .38 with a shrouded hammer. Primary is a XD-9

IMHO dbhn carries way too many blades. For me,one is enough (especially if it's an assisted opener) along with a credit card with one edge filed to a sharp edge in the wallet (just by coincidence it is my Capitol One card- What's in your wallet?). The credit card and my Parker spun aluminum barrel pen are my "airline kit" for weapons when I am forced to travel "naked".

Phantom,
One blade and light at a time. Those are just the ones I typically choose to carry.

Uh, OK. Good 'cause with all that hardware you mentioned plus your pistol(s) you'd have made a good boat anchor.
