Do you carry a .45?
Yup. Big Grin

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

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.
