But don't try coming in my house, especially when only the Mrs is home.

Post by: Dharmaeye on October 11, 2008, 05:44:30 PM: I'm below average size and height and carry a Kahr P9 with 124gr GS. As I am getting on in age, may switch to something like a LCP to reduce weight or change carry style to something other than IWB.

Title: Re: What do you carry?
Post by: PegLeg45 on October 12, 2008, 12:46:49 PM: Colt 1991A1 .45ACP about 30% of the time....Glock 27 .40 the other 70% due to climate issues.
I am comfortable with either with respect to defense issues.

Title: Re: What do you carry?
Post by: DesertMarine on October 13, 2008, 10:44:58 AM: Pictures of what I carry. On the Colt 1911, note the rear sight. It is a S&W revolver rear sight which was poplular when the slide was worked on, slide was hard-chromed. The M28 had the front sight changed from ramp to target front sight. The CRKT is always with me.

Post by: Big Frank on October 13, 2008, 03:52:35 PM: For some reason the local and state police think I can only carry a knife with a 3" blade, even though the law says I can carry a big hunting knife. Now I carry a little bitty pocket knife so I don't confuse them with the facts, and they don't confiscate my knives that are a little over 3". If they are that afraid of a knife I don't know what they would do to me if I carried a gun. I'm more afraid of law enforcement than I am of the criminals that make me want to carry a gun in the first place.

I take it Michigan has changed it's laws somewhat over the last 25 years? It was never that bad before...Sorry to hear it!

Not south because I can't take the heat, but maybe west. It's just over 80 degrees and I'm too darned hot. I'll be glad when the snow gets here and I can put my lawnmower away until spring and quit sweating.

Nice guns, Mack.... (and everyone else, too).... :D
Is that a 'Hip-clip' on the bottom pistol?
If so, is it quick to draw?
Thanks.

Post by: DDMac on October 14, 2008, 01:07:34 PM: Factory belt clip on the P3AT. Had one on the 9mm, but it cut meat out of my knuckle shooting Gold Dots, so it's back in the box, along with a factory trigger shoe that is considerably wider than the trigger guard. IWB carry is life threatening.

I sometimes carry the little one inside waist band, next to the belt buckle, using the clip. Invisible even with a tucked in T-shirt, but it does require a push up on the muzzle with the left hand to get a grip with the right. Quick enough with practice. Don't have as much room inside the waistband as I used to though, if you know what I mean.

Mac.

I know EXACTLY what you mean.
That's why I switched to an OWB Blackhawk SERPA holster for my Glock 27.
When I need 'deep concealment", I still (from time to time) carry a Colt mini-gov't model .380 IWB in an old Uncle Mikes holster.
Thanks.
