I posted my Shorty Forty awhile back but now I have a new candidate for the perfect carry gun:
S&W Model 547 9mm K frame 3" barrel
The gun is reassuring in heft, and points the most naturally of any of my many handguns. The balance seems perfect with the sight coming up into alignment naturally.
Statistically most gun fights last 3 rounds or less and I figure with the sixgun I can fire two sustained bursts of three, or three double taps more accurately and faster with the revolver.
I have a Kydex ISWB holster that I wear Appendix style. The thinner Kydex takes less space and prints less than some leather. Besides for all day wear in hot weather Kydel not absorbing or attracting water or sweat is a plus, especially with a carbon steel blued gun.
After that it's NY reload to my back-up gun, usually a 3rd Gen S&W of some sort depending on dress and environment.
