Mine is a G19C in a supertuck. My fenix is my main beam. A reload, my leatherman wingman. A streamlight as a backup. Other Glock swag in the pic.

My absolute every day gun is my 442, with one speed strip. But carry a Glock23 on duty with normal belt reloads, plus 3 more mags in the driver's side door storage area.

I carry a 642 in my pocket. I use 158 grns LSWC (non-plus Ps).

In Wyoming I see no need for extra ammo on my person. (truck yeah).

I doubt I run across many bandits but I have use my revolver on rattlers, coyotes (stealing my chickens), cat raking baby birds out of wife's bird house.

Even had to put down a horse.

It's my carry revolver for fishing, camping, horse back riding etc. Then I have extra rounds in my pack or saddle bags because I do pick up an odd cotton tail for dinner every now and then.

The only time I feel the need for another gun is while hunting, then I have my Model 70 Winchester.

I still carry my 642 while hunting. It came in handy while trying to sneak up on an antelope and coming nose to nose with a 3 ft rattler.

I don't consider my revolver as a SD weapon (though it would work for that) as much as another every day tool like my pocket knife.

I carry this Model 37 with two speedstrips loaded with Buffalo Bore 158 grain LSWCHPGC standard pressure loads,


and this

Model 13-3,


or this

Model 10-5,


both loaded with CCI .38 Special +P 135 grain JHP Short Barrel loads and two speedstrips,

a Ka-Bar TDI Law Enforcement knife with serrated blade, and an EagleTac P20A2.

On occasion, I add some Safariland speedloaders for the K-frames.

On duty, I have to get along with the Model 37 and the Model 686 that my agency provides with Remington .357 Magnum 125 grain SJHPs in 4 speedloaders.

EDC now = M&P 340. I started in '68 as a rookie cop w/a Colt Cobra (now retired to the safe) and later picked up a 442 which is kept at home for the wife.

Great minds run in the same channels! A 642 in a Mika pocket holster in my right front pocket, loaded with Buffalo Bore non-+P 158 grain LSWCHP "Chicago loads" and a full stripper clip. If that won't get me out of trouble, I'm in the wrong damn place!

Smith and Wesson M&P9 with two mags along with the M&P Shield as a BUG. When I feel like a wheel gun, its the S&W Model 66 with two speed loaders with the model 437 as a BUG.

My EDC is my Glock 27 in a Ritchie Leatherworks IWB Hideaway holster, with my SW Bodyguard 380 in a Desantis Superfly as a BUG. Along with a pocket knife, and flashlight. Very comfortable with my setup and feel naked without it.

I've recently moved from a Glock 19 to something a little smaller, a Shield in 9mm with DeSantis Mini Scabbard. My wife still has the Glock 26... For now. We carry Speer Gold Dot.

Shield in 9MM, riding either in an RKBA OWB Kydex holster or a front pocket in a Blackhawk Size 4 pocket holster, depending on what I'm wearing and where I am. I still have my Bodyguard 380 for smaller pocket occasions, though those are pretty rare.
