If you had on a white suit with a pastel color shirt and/or a skinny tie, what would you carry ?

Picked this one up over the weekend, it would have worked

wonder nines were gaining in popularity for sure.

but maybe i'd go with a BHP if possible.

or a snub .357 like a Model 66 or 65

I love it. My Chief had a lady smith that she carried for years as her duty gun.

This is the double stack 669
Kind of in between a Glock 26 and 19
The 3913 is one of my favorites, but pretty much obsolete for carry

Well, there's always the first Gen Glock 17. First use of a Glock in US media, according to IMFB.org.

Either a 669 like that, or a stainless/nickel Hi Power. In a shoulder holster, naturally.

Or maybe dual S&W 645s, if I wanted to feel like a retro Alonzo Harris.

Nice. All these old S&W semi-auto posts are gonna end up costing me money...

How about dual Bren Tens in shoulder holsters?!?

I was carrying in that era, a Walther PPK/s in stainless - sometimes in a shoulder rig too!

The 3rd Gen 10mms weren't introduced until 1990, 1 year after the end of Miami Vice.

So you must have been a very late adopter of the Miami Vice-style mid-80s aesthetics. Big Grin

I still carry a 669 daily in a Galco shoulder rig.

I liked the sawed-off shotgun that Tubbs carried. Every time he fired it, the sound was dubbed over with that of a howitzer.

You'll need a Bren 10mm then too.


Don't. drink & drive, don't even putt.

I'd go with a S&W 39-2, in a Jackass Co shoulder rig of course!

My first handgun was a Smith 5906—an early version with a hooked trigger guard and non-Novak fixed rear sight.

What I'd probably choose if I went back in time is the real version of the first Airsoft pistol I bought. That was a two-tone Smith 59. I thought that looked pretty slick.

My last 3rd Gen S&W was a 639 with the huge winged rear sight. Which caused me to sell it. I could live it now, though. Frown
