Concealed Daily Carry. Here's mine, what's yours?

For me, it's a Springfield XDM in 9mm. Sometimes like when it's shorts and t-shirt weather I pocket-carry a S&W Bodyguard in .380. I use a DeSantis pocket holster like this one:



It is damn comfortable and feels (and prints) like you're carrying a wallet. It does take some practice to get used to shooting it in that holster though, as it completely changes your grip.

I personally prefer my Browning Mark iii 9mm.

It's heavy, somewhat bulky, but it sure is one sexy chunk of steel.

That's always been my motto when carrying. I really don't want to shoot anyone... never have, never will. Mostly, I want something that will deter any potential crime, by simply pulling it out.

No permit required and it packs a wallop.

On another note Springfield XDE....or DB.380 with a suit...

A gun for a pig?

Real men use a knife.

Been there, done that. Breastplate with a bowie, push down REAL hard...winner winner sausage for dinner.

Oh...and for the OP....a Glock 36....similar to your 30 but slimmer.

Yeah, I forgot to mention in my list that I went through a S&W M&P Bodyguard after the Taurus TCP...nice little gun, but too little for me. I live in KY where open carry is allowed, and I generally don't care if there is a bit of printing of the firearm in my clothes, so I sold the Bodyguard to my realtor. Originally my wife thought that she would want it, but after shooting the Shield 9mm and the Bodyguard back to back, she prefers the Shield.

Can't argue with that.

I depends what Im wearing. If Im wearing shorts I pocket carry a Remmington RM380 with Hornady Critical defense rounds. For jeans I carry a Kahr CM9 inside the waistband, again with Critical Defense rounds.

The RM380 is a great reliable easily concealable gun that shoots pretty good for a smaller firearm.
I think the Kahr is a great 9mm, small enough to conceal but pack a punch and is pretty accurate. I also love the trigger and Kahr makes a great pistol.

One for close, one for far.

A garand and a 1911?
Both good as bludgeons when ammo runs out

My favorite part about this thread is finding out how many of my fellow paranoid conspiracy theorists are armed to the teeth.
Brings a smile to my lips.
Except you-know-who with the slingshot.
I guess he's not that paranoid

a reply to: mysterioustranger I carry that same 709 Taurus in my Cargo shorts. When I wear actual pants I carry a Ruger 45. Sometimes both if I go into a theatre here in CO! (No sarcasm intended....I do it thanks to Mr. Holmes...)

The only thing I can conceal carry is my wit, a 3" leatherman multitool and my hands in my pockets. Such is life in the United Kingdom.

With that said I do have a Mace at home should anyone break in, so I can bludgeon any would be burglars!

Correct again. The situation varies even if individual laws vary. I stated the generality of it all. Tough call...ever-time.

In training years ago...the whole class was astounded after he took each of us...standing 20ft away with plastic guns, and he a plastic knife...how FAST he got to us before we could even draw.

"1!" "2!"....and he was upon us. Something to consider.......

WOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH! Jumpin' Jesus Je-hos-epth! I wanna be your friend in a SHTF scenario!!!!!

The Springfield Ive wondered about. Looks nice.

The "wallet" type feel is why I switched to the Taurus Slim 9 a well...I just forget Im even carrying it.

The 45 ACP Gen 4 Glock is HEAVY. Always been happy and felt safe with that, but Im older now...I think im sticking with the slim and the 45 only when going out of town...or in the hills...

You know..as much as the UK opposes them...I see the L.E.O.'s there are more and more tactical with them these days. It sure is getting bad there and Im sorry for my UK friends.

See...after all the talk? Its getting SOOOOO bad...its almost a given each country and principality needs weaponry. Not because of any other reason than the criminals and terrorists just dont care about human life.

And too? With the terrorists? How do you fight someone...with ANY weapon...when they WANT to die for their stupid "causes"?

Thanks O.E....Best

No good if your holster choice slows you down or impeads your draw.

Or if protruding sights and hammer snag on it. All the bells and whistles are fine if open carry, not so if concealed.

You can carry in a pocket , purse or sack, just be sure when you want it , there are no snags.
