What do you carry?

[sofargone561]

TweetJust curious to see what others carry. If you live in a place you cant carry what would you carry if you could?
Im really interested in what brand, model and caliber and why.
Also do you carry with a light on the pistol or do you carry a light separate in your pocket or no light at all? do you carry separate mags?

Right now i carry a gen 4 glock 26. The reason i chose glock is because i grew up in a family with locks of law enforcement and therefor i am very comfortable and familiar with glock. I also know that my glock is going to fire every time i pull the trigger.

Another reason i chose the 26 is due to the the fact of its size. its small and easily concealable but yet not really small. I have large hands and the wider glocks actually fit better for me.

I also have the ability to switch magazine and capacity and extend the grip. I have the ability to carry standard 10 rounds magazines, 13, 15, 17, 19, 30, 33, 35 and they even have a 50 round drum for it lol Clearly anything over the 17 round is not concealable and more for range time or just plain messing around. I i never carry with bigger then a 17 round and even that is hard to conceal at times so 10, 13 and 15 are where i stay.

Final reason is because its 9mm, That means ammo is not to expensive. I just picked up 350 plink rounds for 119.99 and 20 gold dot for 27.99. cheaper ammo means more range time. that means im better and more accurate and more comfortable with my pistol. The other reason is there is not much kick with my 9mm. that means I can put more rounds down range accurately then something bigger.

Im going to pick up a glock 23 (.40) soon. That way i have a 9mm and a bigger .40 to carry. I will be more than happy with those two size pistols and calibers for my carry. .40 is even easier to get then 9mm by me so again more range time with that pistol.

As for the light and extra mags, my 26 cant have a light (no rails) and i dont carry a light in my pocket unless im out of town (somewhere im not familiar with) or think i may need it. i usually leave one in my car though. I will have a Viridian C5L that i will carry on my G23 though. I dont usually carry extra mags on my person but i usually will leave i high cap mag in my car so if im only carrying 10 rounds on the pistol i may carry a 17 round in the car.

Tweeti carry a micro P3AT .380 most of the time it is super small and i have a pocket holster that is comfy. if i have a jacket or extra shirt i carry an M&P 9C in an IWB holster. lots of guys carry extra mags but i don't.

Tweeti carry a glock 30.. after that shit a few weeks ago in NY I have 2 extra clips in my truck.. the reason I went with the 30 is bc of the .45 power.. I had a friend owe me some money and he gave me a Taurus judge he's a gun smith.. it shoots .410 shells or .45 long.. haven't shot it yet now its cooler down here I might have to take it out and test it..don't know if I will ever carry that instead of my 30...

TweetI carry death specially wrapped with a pretty bow. Just for anymore that fucks with any of my family. Trust me. You don't always go to jail for killing a stupid s.o.b.. Especially when your great uncle owns a pig farm.

TweetIf I would ever give up a damn saturday to get my permit. It would be a glock27 40cal. Love this gun. Everything about it., I have a smaller hand and added the mag pinky ext. Perfect i must say.

Tweet.45 colt long Ruger and .357 S&W. I go for the big ones I only need one shot.

TweetGlock 27 with an extended mag grip. Why? Best conceal carry weapon IMO. 40 cal stopping power, sub compact and fits in my pocket if needed. No safeties to f**k with under duress, No external hammer to snag on anything.

TweetGLOCK 40 CAL ALWAYS WITH ME IN MY TRUCK

GLOCK 40 CAL ALWAYS WITH ME IN MY TRUCK

Me too, my conceal carry is a 27. 40caliber is just right, used it for years.

Tweetlots of glock guys. i like them but the double stack mags make it a bit thick for me. my M&P is thinner than the sub glocks and is still hard to conceal without a baggy jacket. (i do give up capacity for thin though)

love glocks, don't get me wrong. qualified with a glock for my CHL and it is the best combat pistol IMO all things considered but i carry my .380 EVERYWHERE. alot of guys don't carry a larger pistol due to the size and weight and having to put on the holster and comfort.

some guys do but not many. i would rather have my peewee pistol than nothing. convenience matters

TweetI tend to wear baggier clothing so concealeemr with a glock it's to bad. Especially my 26 in a IWB holster you can't even tell I have it. I like the weight it's not annoying but I never forget its there. I'm not a pocket pistol guy I usually have to much shit in my pockets lol. But I agree 100% I'd rather have any pistol then no pistol especially now.

[animal87]

TweetReally theres some kind of shotgun within reach in everywhere my house and in the car and don't need a permit to have them at least where I'm at. If I had to do something thats what I would use.
