Yup. Big Grin

My "go to" is a Dan Wesson CCO in 45ACP. My BUG is a Sig P238 in 380 as shown here.




Certifiable member of the gun toting, septuagenarian, bucket list workin', crazed retiree, bald is beautiful club!

If not carrying my 239 in 357 (or my 239 in 9), I carry my 245. Though as 92sftech has pointed out with his photo, perhaps I should show some love to one of my 229s.

I carry a SIG P220 from time to time. Mostly I carry my GLOCK 22 .40S&W, and to a lesser extent GLOCK 17 9X19mm.

When more discretion is called for, the GLOCK 27 .40S&W, HK P7, or SIG P6 is called on.

When I carry my SIG P220, I have 3+1 magazines for 32 rounds, so I don't feel like I'm at a disadvantage in firepower. Plus it's one of my most accurate pistols that I own, and I shoot it well.

I’ve been carrying a Wilson Compact CQB for a lot of years now. It’s a bit heavy, but it does wear well in a Sparks IWB and a spare 8 rd. Mag. When I need something smaller, it’s usually a S&W CST.

Not me. The weather most of the year is too hot to carry a larger/heavier gun due to clothing choices.

Curious to see the regional differences. If it's winter and you are up north, I can see carrying a larger gun due to clothing being able to conceal better. But we don't have much of a winter here, might last a month if that.

I carry a S&W 645. Kinda heavy due to the stainless steel. So sometimes I carry a Colt Government .380 Recently bought my first 1911A1 when the CMP started selling them. Now my wife and I have 3 of those.

Commander length 1911. Dan Wesson CBOB. All steel, its heavy, but it gets the job done.

I have always thought of my HK USP full size 45 pistols as being king of the heap of 45 semi auto pistols.

What is that old joke -- guys like to talk 45, shoot a9 mm, and carry a 38.

HK USPc 45 is routinely in my rotation. Was an all seasons gun, but now carry a P30sk in summer. That will probably soon change to a P365.
