What CCW Would You Choose?

[gfl216 229]

What gun would you choose as an every day carry gun?

I'm not talking about an I'm going to war gun. I'm talking, I'm going for milk.

 

I think a small frame revolver such as the Ruger LCR or S&W Bodyguard would be best.

It will never jam, you never have to worry about a safety, and if it doesn't go bang just pull the trigger again

[Shane45 807]

HK P2K LEM.

[Scorpio64 5,163]

Ruger SP101 .327 FM

[gfl216 229]

Both good choices, but I think the H&K would get heavy after a while and would be a little harder to conceal.

 

Also, I would like to hear why anyone who responds chose the gun they did.

[DevsAdvocate 112]

LCR 9mm. Moon clips baby.

[illy 1]

Ruger LCR would be my first choice.

[Bully 749]

Kahr CM9. Small, reliable, easy to shoot and a great trigger.

[BullzeyeNJ 104]

S&W 640 357 magnum J frame revolver with Crimson Trace grips in a appendix IWB holster most of the time or if I can conceal it well...a Glock 19 9mm in a IWB holster at 4 o'clock

[High Exposure 5,669]

Glock 23 or 35 with SF X300U.

[DSD1026 48]

As of now, if it started today, I would choose our S&W 640 38spl revolver, simply because I dont own another small gun.  That said, My 640 is the older style all steel version, and not all THAT light.  I would consider getting something like a Walther CCP or Ruger LC9s (heard good things about the trigger) if we were actually to get CCW here.  I have very limited experience with compacts/sub compacts, as I have no use for them at this point in time, so I havent spent any time shooting many of them.

Glock 42 works for me.

[fishnut 2,358]

S&W 649

[JTS1469 0]

Springfield 45 XDS. Already have it and it fits the bill

[302w 83]

Browning 380 1911.

[Bully 749]

S&W 649

Nice choice

[redwings9 5]

1911 Kimber ultra carry, spare mags and pocket flashlight. iWB crossbreed 330 position.

[boo 6]

I'd almost like to say my Ruger LCP. I love the trigger. Just a touch heavier than the DA trigger on my Sig but really smooth. I understand that the trigger is only good on mid 2013 and later production. I say "almost" because I've had the take down pin pop out on me a couple times.

[Burns 16]

If I could carry in this god forsaken state it would be my S&W Shield 9mm.

[Burns 16]

1911 Kimber ultra carry, spare mags and pocket flashlight. iWB crossbreed 330 position.

Off topic nice user name you from Michigan? I grew up just south of Detroit.

[fishnut 2,358]

Nice choice

LOL yes it is. Thanks again!

[Kevin125 4,772]

Not sure exactly which models but small enough to carry on my hip or ankle without a big bulge. Something like the Kimber Solo line. Seem light enough, small enough and a 6 round mag of 9mm should be fine. I don't know how reliable their guns are but that's another factor.

 

Their 1911 Ultra carry line is nice but 1911s are pretty big for CCW from what I've seen.

[DeerSlayer 241]

G27 or Boberg XR9-S

Counting down the OGAM days to pick up the Boberg!

[1LtCAP 4,264]

as it stands now, ruger sr9c. small, easily concealed(i've had several customers note that they never knew it was there, till ccw conversation came up....and i showed them)....and it's accurate.

[redwings9 5]

Burns ,no Michigan roots just old Gordie Howe fan

S&W 629 with 10" barrel.

[redwings9 5]

DS that's pretty funny.... Good boots though. Thanks for the laugh

Re: sub compact 1911s. I just saw this the other day.

 

[Underdog 1,593]

I would alternate between the following based on the day, how I am dressed, etc.:

 

S&W M&P 9 Shield

S&W M&P 9C

Ruger LCR in 9mm

NAA Sidewinder

 

I would consider the new Glock 9mm, a Glock 19, a Ruger SP101 in .38/.357 and a S&W Model 60.

 

The nod would go to the Shield.

[magnawing 5]

I'll be getting a Lionheart LH9CN for EDC. I'll get the gun & holster as soon as I get a day off from work to switch my license over to TX. Then I'll take the class & get my CHL.

 

The gun was developed for the Korean military and has been carried by them for 20+ years. For some reason, I have an aversion to Lego guns...tried them, carried one as a LEO for a couple years, just don't like them.

 

 

This signature is AWESOME!!!
