What's your favorite Carry Gun?

[Independence Arms]

Alternate to my Glocks, if I feel like I need to carry something smaller and thinner, I go for my non Ma. Kahr P9.

 

[45collector]

For a long time it was full size 1911 in the cold months and East German Makarov in the warmer months. Lately though, the Glock 19 has nudged it's way in there. The G19 is just an excellent gun all around. But if it had to be one and only one, 1911 hands down.

 

[Bluefin]

HK USP40c (IWB) or P30 9mm (OWB) winter carry with Kahr PM9 back up (ankle holster).
Kahr PM9 summer carry (IWB or pocket holster).

Looking into a 1911 with 3"or 4" barrel with shoulder holster

 

[ArmedResident]

Glock 26 with Pierce magazine extensions - shoulder holster, or SW 642 Snubby - pocket with Nutnfancy EDC gear system in a mountain smith fanny pack.

 

[jron]

M&P 9 Full size. But Im a bigger guy (6'2'' 235) I honestly forget its there sometimes with N82 tactical holster.

 

[617bones]

Ruger LCP (.380) for lightweight pocket carry (perfect for summer and shorts) in a Desantis pocket holster or a Walther PPS 9mm in a Crossbreed IWB holster.

My Sig 229 and Glock19 are a bit bulky for me, 5' 10" 150lb, and I often leave them in the safe. Hope that helps.

 

[fshalor]

I carry a Ruger LC9. Plenty slim and comfortable for my skinny ass.

I have heard it said that the best carry gun will be the one you actually carry.....

Did that get to deep on anyone?

I actually really like that little gun. As much as I love my Glock 26, the LC9 is just so comfortable.

I've bonded with every gun I have in my safe in some way and honestly just feel better having them with me.

Deep? Nah! It's seriously accurate.

It all depends... On how you dress, where you work, if you are only planning on owning/carrying one firearm, etc...

For me, I have downgraded several times. I used to carry a Glock 17 all day, everyday in an AWIB holster. With a holster with a slight cant, even a fullsize handgun can disappear.

Now, due to where I work, I must go through a metal detector and get wanded everytime I leave, I have downgraded to either a j-frame or P238 due to the size and being able to carry it at 4-5oclock, without being noticable and getting me past the guards.

If you work someplace without security, you should carry the most capable firearm you can, on your list, that would be the Glock 27.

 

[Gastrok]

Walther PPS. I have 1100 rounds through mine and it's flawless. Very thin and excellent build quality.
I'd also recommend the G19. I picked up one recently and it might replace the PPS. Can't beat the 15+1 firepower.

 

[Stryker]

Glock 26 - maybe rethink that when I am able to pick up a shield.

oh im sure you will. the shield is my go to ccw gun when im in a rush. my glock 26 sits in my safe now days

just make sure to have a gunsmith work on the trigger pull and you will be good to go.

 

[beangado]

M&P 9c for IBW or a P11 in my pocket

 

[mac67]

You're making me feel like I should get one.

You should. I don't usually get wowed by a new gun, but after shooting a 9mm it immediately went to the top of the gun's to get list. And that was with a MA trigger !!

 

[shotguner]

Shield is my go to. With an IWB holster, can carry it all day, you forget its there.
The trigger does feel like you're dragging it over a pile of rocks.

Spend the dough on either a trigger job or buy an APEX Carry Kit and do it yourself. It's an easy fix for the trigger.

I prefer my Glock 19 all day long, but frankly, I LOVE my Shield (+Apex Kit & Night Sights) now for everyday carry.

I can only get through half of your postings, I try to read it all, but your avatar is WAY too distracting!

[Mflagg73]

I like my S&W 1911 subcompact pro. But far more comfort with my Kahr P9

mike

 

[AoxoMoxoA]

Ever consider a revolver? Goes bang with any ammo every time. Here's my current carry. Colt Cobra 2" snubbie in 38 Special... Bianchi #5 Black Widow holster.

 

[Tony2Times]

The M&P shield is what I have, with a hybrid hidden holster. Apex trigger is awesome.

 

[Enzo]

My favorite carry gun is whichever I'm carrying at that time.....

 

[NorthShore]

s&w 638 or SR40c - depends on what I am doing

Im thinking of picking up mepros for my shield. What are you using for the n.s's?

 

[That Guy]

I carried a S&W model 60 .38 spl for a long time, but last year I switched to a full size auto when I bought my Beretta. Carrying a full size handgun took some getting used to but since then I haven't looked back. I actually don't know if I'll ever buy another compact.

I am considering a .357 with a four inch barrel as my next CCW addition. Does nobody carry revolvers with four inch barrels?

 

[Jim269]

Have a Glock 27 for the fall and winter months but use the S&W BG .380 in the summer on the Harley and t-shirt weather....

 

[fivepak]

Another vote for the full sized M&P 9mm. It fits well in my hand and it shoots great. Plus 18+1 capacity is comforting. That with a spare madg and bring on the end of the world. I feel ready.

When in just a t-shirt it's usually the Sheild 9mm or XDs .45.

Ameriglo is supposed to get a resupply of night sights in this week for the Shield. Since Trijicon hasn't decided to make Shield sights, IMO, Ameriglo is the next best thing since Trijicon makes their inserts.

I will. Thanks for the offer !! Who did the trigger ?
