jsbcodyIt is seasonal and where I am going (some places here in St. Louis, you need more gun

).
For warmer months:
Sig P365XL
S&W 642 revolver
Walther PPK
For colder months:
Sig P365XL
Glock 26 MOS
Tisas 1911 Bobtail Commander .45acp (now filled mostly with Wilson Combat parts, runs great!).
When I switch out, I have a little airsoft range (heavy duty tarp on expandable curtain rod with freestanding targets, the bottom of tarp is rolled up to catch the pellets) in the basement that I will use an airsoft Glock or Sig or revolver or PPK or 1911 for some training reps.

KELTec P3AT when discretion is more important.
I have a handful of other options for which I've got holsters but don't carry much.

Admittedly, lots of redundancy there, as they're all striker-fired 9mm compacts with 15 round magazines (well, 12 in the P365X but then 15 round in a spare magazine).
The G19 used to be my primary off duty carry, but it rarely sees use lately. Now it's almost always either the P320C or P365X, both on and off duty. I'm not even going to qualify with the Glock this year.

sigarms229By far my #1 carry gun is top left, Sig P365XL with the slide/barrel from a P365 Macro Comp. My primary carry mag is a factory 12rd mag with the Magguts spring/basepad making it a near flush fit 14rd mag. Carry ammo is Federal 124gr +P HST.
2nd most common carry gun is top right, standard Sig P365 with a factory flat trigger added. This is when I need to go with pocket carry in a custom leather pocket holster. Carry ammo is Hornady 115gr XTP.
3rd most common carry is when I feel I need a "bigger gun", Wilson Combat Beretta 92G Centurion Tactical (Vertec). No mods, just Mecgar 18rd mags and ammo is Federal 124gr +P HSTs

Same BUGs
Still shooting well at 81, always carry. Hands can't take repeated .45 recoil or repeated DA/SA pulls any more. Mobility compromised, so likely have to just stand and fight. Figure 18 or 13 rounds better under those circumstances. Have always and still carry two spare mags. Beware of Old Geezers. Some don't intend to leave before their time.

I have used Safepackers for years. My Daughter has my first one. I bought another one for the same reason as you. It's great for traveling and very discrete when walking to and from my hotel room. I usually keep a G19 or G17 with spare magazine in mine. It keeps the firearm clean and dust free.
My 3 top carry guns are:
Glock 26
Glock 19 Gen5
Glock 47 MOS (Replaced my non MOS G17)
