What did you carry last time out?
-
I haven't bought anything or been in a store yet other than to pick up the wifes snowblower.
I'm getting a lump of coal, like every year... ;D
1911 for me, cocked and locked.....winter clothes cover well and big and slow always works...
for dinner at the inlaws, I'll probably have the snub.....in the pocket!
-
S&W 637 w/CT laser grips. Pocket or IWB.
-
S&W 642 IWB
-
The S&W 649 lives in the front pocket. 8)
-
<--------------------------- Glock 26............ 10+1 147gr 9mm Hornady TAPs

Last time out, (before today, see new addition in handgun thread), was and is my P3AT, as it is shorts and golf shirt weather.
BUT, my brand new Taurus M85 Ultra-Lite .38 +P, will be getting a good ride next time out. 8)
When I can wear jeans, I can carry my M+P .40, or FN9 IWB.
-
I might leave my cell phone at home but I've always got a 1911 IWB with me. I even take places that don't think I have a right to self-defense. ;D

1911 unless I'm visiting relatives, then it's the Mossberg ;D

The only thing that disarms me directly, is the Kennedy (yes that one), Family Egg Nog recipe. Thank goodness that stuff only comes out once a year. Makes one very "Jolly"....
Otherwise, I'm carrying (2) .50 caliber quarts, one as mu BUEN (back up egg nog)
:D
With my family around, it's better to NOT be carrying a firearm, and get slightly "nogged" to put up with them.
:P
I'll just sick my Aunt Irene on the BG, he would prefer being shot when she's done with him....

Funny how everyone forgets about the "Gun Free Zone" When a citizen happens to stop a mass killing at a department store/ church, post office...etc.

I've actually been in Wytheville. We called it Woofle back in the day.
Hard folks... If we beat their football team, the buses would get rocked all the way out of town.
If we lost, the buses would get rocked all the way out of town :)
I'm goiing all in with my Chip McCormick gun and Mitch Rosen leather tomorrow; full battle rattle in honor of the season...
Usually I go with a j-frame carried strongside pocket, but I don't have to do a lot of gymnastics tomorrow.

Sounds like Seabrook NH. You could always tell the Seabrook kids at school, their lunch boxes were all dented from being used as clubs.
Some of the streets in Seabrook flood at high tide, If some moved in they didn't like they'd wait till high tide and torch their house.
The Government forced a Nuke plant on these old fisherman, and they didn't like it so they blew up the Post Office. It's been over run with Massholes now though and has lost it's character.
But if you know what names to look for you can still find some of the old timers around.
-
Note that you can change your vote...which I did because I was out with the 9 and not carrying packages for the wife. SR9 in 5 Shot Leather IWB....
-
XD45 because Xmas this year is at my inlaws in Compton.
-
Weather's been pleasantly cool lately so I've temporarily ditched the 'tupperware' for old 'slab-sides'.
Feels so right I might not switch back.

Dang! You're worse than a woman! I seeing Jeff Foxworthy doing is flamingo dance over his wife's shoes, only it's you with guns and holsters standing in front of the mirror, and then finally asking if the iwb makes your hips look wide :-\

Legally I can't carry here, but for the drive, the Charter Arms Undercover is coming along as part of the roadside emergency kit (legally stored of course).

I would carry something larger but i live in Commiefornia and its all im willing to risk. My girl has her SR9 so i do have some back up.

There were 3 of us packing with a possible 4th who had one in their console (IIRC, he usually does). Also I'm told there was likely a .357 Stashed nearby in the living room. I carried my GLOCK 30 (Carried simply cause I don't get to carry it often anymore), and my now-ever-present S&W 649 in .357 Mag (Which I DID show off to a couple family members who hadn't seen it yet.). My cousin in law was packing his Kahr MK9, and brand spankin' new Ruger LCP. Dad was carrying my AMT Backup .45 ACP. Oh.... Good news about my cousin BTW..... She's finally decided she needs her CHL (I hear a guy tried to follow her when she went to visit her mother. All she had was her mace and cell phone. Thankfully it was enough to get him to keep driving on down the road when she stopped and got out.). She's said to her hubby "I like that new LCP. I'd even probably carry that." And he said "If You'll carry it I'll go buy you one of your very own" I told him, "Go buy another LCP for my cousin" She said after retelling the story about the man following her "It's hard being this cute," and Dad and I both told her to Carry a gun, to which she said "I am. I want to get my license." ;D Before her attitude was "I won't carry outside the house." She has a Taurus .357, which she keeps handy in the house, and can shoot very well, they tell me. My cousin in law said "I feel sorry for anyone who'd try to break in this house during this party tonight."

Only thing I am carrying atm is about an extra 5lbs after xmas lunch! ;D
-
Had the .357 snub in the pocket today and my 870 in the trunk...
No threats, just showing the nephew who lives in Ft Collins a typical pump gun that would serve him well for cougar protection. Just converted another one to the pro-gun side....He and his brother left MA for CO a few years ago to check it out and never came back! Real outdoors kids, musicians who hike, ski, climb and decided they need something more than a rock sometimes in the back country...
Good for them!

you may want to rethink a shot gun for cougie proection. There is a pretty good chance that you will have to use it with in a few feet or might have to use it to get the cat off some one. for both of those a shot gun would be less then ideal. cougies are pretty weak, a 357 is more then enough. often cougies are hunted with 22 mags or a 25 20

I don't disagree at all TAB. The problem is, neither of them have ever in their life handled a handgun. I told him flat out to get lots of information, training and advice from people who know before he makes a decision. There are definately more options but for simplicities sake, a shotgun works for now. Ft Collins and CO in general are loaded with folks who can give hiim sage advice and his girlfriends (plural) grew up in the mountains. They're probably better prepared then the boys are.

They picked a great place to live for their interests. ;D

Seems so Jim.....he's not completely converted but we talked for hours about politics, life and general BS and it gives me hope that his generation IS THINKING about what's going on right now. He's 27 and his brother is 23, both great kids, great musicians and the younger one is hell on a snowboard. They asked me a few years ago what I would do at their age and I said move to CO, ski, go to school, and find something they love that they could make money doing!
So they DID!
It was refreshing to hear that young people, even some college kids are really angry about the D.C. issues and are begining to get active. He also has some pretty whacky ideas and conspiracy theories but when you get all your news off the internet, you're bound to start believing some of it.

Springfield XD Tactical .45 in a Comp-Tac CTAC, with 14rds of Fed HST, two 13rd spares on the belt and, just maybe another spare hidden somewhere about my person ;)!!!
There's something about 54rds of HST on the person that just gives one a warm, fuzzy feeling!!! ;D
....now, the Kalishnikov and six mags, both in 'sneaky' bags, in the truck, that's for a special occasion.....
