I gotta stick with my H&K USP .40 compact and crossbreed holster.
How many of you carry a back up? After talking with a couple friends that also CCW it seems to be split just about evenly. Personally I run my 1911 on my hip and a Sig p938 in an ankle holster. For summer I've been thinking of adding a glock 30s or 36 (less of a size concern and more sweat resistance).
Only when I was on the job,,,, not now. I started carrying when I was 22 years,,, The only time I don't carry is when I'm in a country that prohibits it,,, which is just about all of them,,, I actually look forward to those trips with no gun, no cell phone,,, I actually hate to carry.Quote:

Instead of carrying for comfort, I evaluated my normal day to day activity & adjusted my choice of weapon to the environment that I'm in daily. If I have business that takes me out of my daily routine, then I equip accordingly.
I've had a CCW Permit and have been carrying in Kentucky for nearly thirty (30) years. When I am out in the field I carry a Les Baer UTC (1911 platform) and a Glock 36 for backup. Usually around town and the office I carry a Seecamp LWS-380.

These days, a Glock 30SF, tucked nicely in ether a Remora or DeSantis Cozy Partner.

I got into reloading for accuracy, so I had the equipment before I realized that it was a bit cheaper too.Quote:
