What have I been carrying since Thanksgiving? The KelTec P3AT.

No more ice cream, no more pie...
Is your new years resolution to carry the M&P again?

You bet. When I had a horse, I used my saddle as my diet guide. Now it's the IWB.

I refuse to carry the .32.

I have been carrying at least one handgun daily for the last 35 years. I carry weapons that I would feel comfortable with using to stay alive when dealing with armed attackers who have decent weapons. I would not want to deal with a large, enraged individual armed with a contact weapon at close range using a peashooter. The old, hack sayings, "Better a peashooter in the pocket than a cannon in the safe." and, "I wouldn't want to be shot by anything, even a tiny gun." are very misleading. In a life and death struggle, there are no excuses or do overs. So, whatever anyone else carries doesn't matter to me. I always carry a capable handgun. Today, its been a Glock 27 and a LCP as a BUG. Sometimes its a 1911 or a S&W 66 snub or a S&W M&P 9c. My lightest carry is a Kahr P9 Covert. Why would I want to carry a weapon I wouldn't want to try to kill a deer with to fight off a determined human predator?
