There has been a Smith and Wesson J Frame with me almost every day of my adult life since 1980

First as a BUG but in recent years as a primary sidearm
 
Old school

I carry a 1980s blue 36 chiefs special wearing some barami hip grips and a tyler t grip. Can carry with a bloused shirt and no one notices and it’s actually pretty fast on the draw.

Other times a 442 in a pocket holster
 
For many years I would never trust a semiautomatic pistol no matter whose name was on it or how much it cost and I carried service grade S&W revolvers. Now times are "different" in many ways and I am quite content to carry my $298 Glock 17.
 
As a routine thing, my S&W M649. Everything you need; nothing you don't.

BUT! When venturing out to certain areas of target rich environments where goblins might tread I up the ante to a 9mm, a Walther CCP or a CZ Compact.

30 days a month it's the M649.

A good man has always know his limitations. I have seen people on the shooting ranges. Some are trying to shoot a handgun that they can not manage safely. Either too powerful or just a poor choice.

Of course the ones I don't see is the ones whose handgun stays in the nightstand or just puts it in his pocket.
