No carry here. If I happen to be traveling in a carry state, I would go with a Sig 232 or something of similar size.

everyone makes fun of me but i carry my walther p22 with laser, and i simply reply lets go outside and let me shoot u with it and they shut up

the reason i carry such a small cal. gus is if someone is doing somthing that is a big enough threat to me or my girlfriend that i have to use my gun i think it will hurt enough to make them stop or if i have to kill them i think 10 .22 cci stingers will do the trick, but shooting would be my absolute last resort like my car wont start last resort lol

Para P-13 in winter and Kel-Tec P3AT for hot weather.

Several people have made fun of my wife for carrying the Black Widow; but, given her size & build, there's not much else that conceals easily. So when the ribbing gets too obnoxious, she digs out the target we made, right after I "gave" her the gun for our anniversary, by tracing a line around a quarter with a Sharpe (tm). It's got five neat little holes inside the circle that she placed there from 45 feet (length of our barn plus a little); ribbing tends to stop after that...

Why step down to the .38? You have a nice medium frame revolver that should be relitivly pleasent to shoot with a standard .357 loading.
Why use less?
Using .38 loads will change the way the gun performs a bit. I would reccomend finding a single load for the gun that you like. Use it as your primary and as your speed load as well. Consistancy is good.
I like the Winchester 140gr Silver Tip in a 2 - 3" as it seems to flash less in low light and Federal 158 jhp in 4-6", this is strictly a personal preferance.

I disagree. I really like a 38 +p for most forms of 2 legged defense. I realize that the 357 has a better one shot stop record, but that comes at a price of recoils muzzle blast and possible over penetration. I reserve the 357 magnum for four legged defense.

Haha why is that? They're the exact same size!




For hot weather I carry the trusty Glock 23 in an uncle mike's IWB holster. Can't tell I have it even in just a T-shirt.

For cold weather I carry the faithful Glock 23, but in a DeSantis leather holster, since its easier to draw and is concealed by bulkier clothes.
I have something that I know works and I'm comfortable with, so I see no reason to change

The Kel-Tec P3AT should arrive tomorrow. I dont know if I will carry that regularly as a back-up or if I will just carry it when running and working out.

well i am a big guy so i wish that they make a .380 hand gun that fits my hand so i carry a m&p 9
