Does the circumstances you're carrying in dictate what you pack? For instance, if you're out and about on private land, are you carrying openly with a belt or shoulder holster?
145pro or CZ 9mm in denim painters style jeans or carhart work pants front pocket. there thick and loose enough to carry comfortable and allow setting down without pinching the twins. :smt1099:smt023
How secure are ankle holsters? Im thinking about getting a glock 30 or 36 but wear dress slacks with tucked in shirt everyday. Ive thought about a small keltec in the pocket but i think i want something in the .40-.45 range. I dont think a g36 would fit that nice in a dress slacks but I might get some intrigued looks from the ladies.:smt023
I carry a 8" S&W X-Frame 500 magnum in a shoulder holster. My backup gun is a Desert Eagle 44 magnum autoloader I carry in my waistband.
Just kidding!, but can you imagine? Seriously, I carry a S&W snubbie .38 in a paddle holster, but I am going to be getting that new Ruger LCP .380 as soon as I can.
well since I live in south florida I've found that the best way for me is to have my sc XD 9mm 10+1 with a glaco leather iwb at about 2 o'clock. On long trips in the car I normally have it in the center counsol.
you know what helps alot is if you buy your jeans one size bigger. 36 fits me perfectly but I have the old lady buy them in 38's It fit my gun like a glove.
Best scenario is 2 guns; XD40 and KelTec P3AT as a BUG. Sometimes I'll just carry the KelTec though if my outfit doesn't permit the carrying of a full size gun. IWB for the XD and pocket for the KelTec.
I prefer to carry a larger caliber (.357-.45acp) gun OWB when possible. Usually one of these four.
I will also carry smaller guns in smaller calibers (.380acp-9mm) when I need something a bit smaller or thinner than my normal guns for OWB carry. Usually one of the three below. I will also take that Seecamp .380 (I chose mouse gun in a pocket even though it is a .380acp and not a .32acp) and carry it in a wallet holster when I cannot conceal a belt holster.
I also quite often carry a gun in a fanny pack in hot weather, when riding my motorcycle, or hiking. I use the Blackhawk Weapon Pack pictured below. I do not consider it a "nerd pouch" but I do sometimes feel (after catching a glimps of myself in a store window as I step out of my F-150 with my fanny pack, short hair, and Birkenstocks) That I should probably put a "Lesbian and Proud" bumper sticker on my truck.
I carry 24/7 except for on the job. Around home I'm concealed, but more relaxed. Winter usually OWB under a jacket depending on weather. If I'm going to a restaurant and might take off the jacket it will be IWB with tucked or untucked shirt. Sometimes I carry crossdraw in winter or both strong side/crossdraw IWB/OWB. Summer is IWB only under untucked shirt mainly, but I've tucked them in before over the G27. I've got 9mm, 40 S&W, and 45ACP pistols. All of them see carry at one time or another. Hope I answered some of your questions. By the way--the top photo was a quikie-----I do have a quality 1 1/2" and 1 1/4" thick leather belts for carry.
I agree completely on that one. I wear boots about 50% of the time, which forces pocket carry on those days. The ankle rig just doesn't work well with boots. Galco does make a boot extension with my ankle rig of choice, that I'm considering. Anybody have experiences with those?
So far I have a ruger gp100 4'', blued, in an IWB holster and can carry it wearing shorts and a t-shirt with no worries of printing. I'm waiting on some O.T. at work to adopt a glock 27, we'll see who gets more attention once the new one is home...
Normally a Smith & Wesson 38 caliber revolver in an owb holster. My favorite carry weapon is a 3" model 64. I also like the 642 and the model 60. I have other handguns that I will carry including a number of pistols but I always seem to come back to a 38 caliber smith.
I like my p1445ldaltd in an cheep uncle mikes or an xd45 in the same holster when not at work. There is no weapons allowed in a government building.:smt022 Go figure.
hey you dont now what mite happen i mite have to defend my self against 51 gang member,51 attempt of robbery,51 carjackers....... and the list keep getting longer:anim_lol:
It basically comes down to “the more the merrier” although; you probably wouldn’t be fast enough to conquer that many gang members, etc. etc. I may applaud the effort nevertheless.
But hey “whatever floats your boat”. :mrgreen:
