Default 10-7 4" tapered/pencil carry

Does anyone CC this ol' outdated, unsophesticated, 6 shot?
J/k of course.

If so, what is your carry rig and what might be the ammo choice?

Thanks.

I prefer to use one of my 4" Heavy Barrel 10's for CC, but I also have carried my 6" 10-5 on occasion during the winter

I load my CC revolvers with Remington Golden Saber .38 +P, but also load them with some vintage Super Vel +P HP's sometimes. It depends on what gun I'm carrying.

My favorite all around "rig" for them is a simple Bianchi IWB leather clip holster. It fits any of my 4-6" K or L frame revolvers, and it's strong and secure. I may have to buy a few more to keep as backups. I have even carried my 6" Ruger GP100 a few times in that holster.

I carry a few different ones, depending on my mood, weather, ect. Usually it's a M-64, a blue M-10-5 or a nickel M-10-5, all 4", all pencil tubes. Sometimes for fun I throw in a nickel M-10 2” into the mix. All riding in a Galco Speedmaster High Ride and stoked with Federal 158grain SWC +Ps.

On occasion, I carry a Model 10 tapered barrel in a Don Hume pancake. Mainly when I go to the range.

Well my 4in pencil barreled K is a 67. Wish I had a HB 67 but don't think I've ever seen one. Carry it in a Lobo IWB horsehide, it's the newer one with the clip offset, works great at 4 0'clock. Very minimum thickness at the cylinder. Works in other spots as well. Now if that 3in 66 ever shows up, I'm sure it will find a comfortable home in the same holster.

The "new gen" 67's are HB's

I don't often carry my 6" 10-5,there's no advantage in real-world usefulness of that extra 2" of barrel when it comes to CC..... although I do have a 5" RB M&P but it's just too unique to use for carry.

I don't have a taper barrel 4" 10, but I would love to find a 4" taper barrel RB.

Please forgive me Mr. Saxon Pig if my wording failed to meet your high standards of firearm terminology. You have a great deal of time on your hands as evidenced by your 3600+ posts here. This must qualify you as the resident expert. Condescending / elitist altitudes like this are so standard over internet forums and they are tiresome at best. Question: If you overheard someone use this "unapproved" verbiage in your local gun shop, would you feel the need to interject this unnecessary and unsolicited commentary? I doubt it.
