OK...I saw a topic earlier that made me wonder...while it's a striker fire world now...I thought I'd throw this out thereWhat Type of firearm do you primarily carry?Striker FiredTraditional Double Action Semi AutoDAO Semi AutoSing Action Semi AutoDouble Action RevolverSingle Action Revolver (NAA, SAA, etc...)

And...as always, pics are always appreciated so I can be jealous of all the cool stuff you guys in free states can get...

I went from revolver to striker fired.
In todays world, I feel under gunned with 5 rounds now.
The criminal dynamic has changed.

.45 ACP Colt Defender in an R. Grizzle Georgia Snap 2:



9mm Springfield EMP3 with custom-made Hogue Cocobolo grip panels in the same holster:



.45 ACP Remington R1 Enhanced in a DC Gunleather Contender:



The Andrews Leather Monarch shoulder rig ...



... that'll carry all of those, as well as my 10mm Kimber Custom II GFO "woods carry" pistol:



Both the Kimber and the Remington have since been fitted with mag funnel mainspring housings and Hogue G10 grip panels.

I cut my proverbial teeth on DA/SA SIGs, then transitioned to strikers and then when I had kids transitioned back to DA/SA.

I am most comfortable with DA/SA but lately have been devoting more time to my Glocks and trying to come back up to speed with them as much because I am trying to keep my skills up with them as that they are just so damn easy to replace sights on or get holsters for or run a dot on if I want.

End of the day I always seem to find my way back to DA/SA, hammer fired, iron sighted pistols…..because I am apparently a troglodyte and get off my lawn .

Striker fired. I've been carrying one of these two for the last several years.

Began with S&W revolver, then Sig SA/DA, next Glocks which I still carry in certain situations but as my hands got old a 1911 functions best. Also living in a gun hostile environment the slim profile is a plus.

Commander sized 1911

I spend right at 15 years trying different carry guns.... finally settled on what I consider old school. Sig came out with it for concealed carry before plastic or striker fired was the thing. She aint as pretty an many others and has been rode hard but she still shoots... and shoots very well.

DA/SA.

None of my carry guns are pretty or limited to action type.

Striker here. Glock 33 and Sig P365. IWB in Stealth Gear holsters.

Sort of all the above...Striker (P320) at work and sometimes on my own time. DA/SA (Beretta 92X Compact or P245) on my own time when the situation permits, and a DA revolver (S&W 640 or 360) as a backup at work and sometimes as my only gun around the house/neighborhood.

Mostly P365 in various configurations.

Occasionally Kahr PM9

Even less my P229 or P239.

I have not carried my P320 except to the range.

Striker. Glock 23, or Shield+ when attire limits concealability.

Ruger LCP Max 380, 10+1 or 12+1 round magazines of 380 in the back pocket, light, easy to conceal, none of the holster issues or pulling down shorts or pants. Down here it's hot and we wear light weight clothing all year.
