I routinely carry my Savage .308 FTR from my car to the bench. It's about 12 lbs.

until this last March of 2017
when I broke my femur/hip... it was a S&W mod 29, 4" in a clam shell cross draw rig when I thought serious social work might be in the offing.. a heavy upgrade from my daily carry gun a parkerized Colt Agent 2" which might be augmented with a S&W mod 36 2" for a fast Kansas City reload. Now I studiously avoid places where such things might occur.
In days long past, a Colt 1911A1, a Colt Combat Commander, a Browning High Power, a Colt Python & Walther PP & Walther PPK all were also used as duty &/or off duty carries.

I daily carry either my 3" 65, or 13. And occasionally my 908.
Used to daily carry my 686, but after years of that I've fallen in love with a lighter companion

Used to be a custom 1911 5" or Commander almost all the time. In the last few years I have switched to a Glock 19 or my 9mm Shield and my M+P 340 on the weekends around the house. I have many choices or heavier Wheel guns when kicking around on the Grand Mesa with the mutts etc. I liken this to woman deciding which purse and shoes to wear. What a horrible dilemna!
A 4" M29 is my daily carry. These days I'm using Simply Rugged Sourdough Pancake holsters.
Here's how it looks currently.
I've got a 6" M629 on its way to me right now - we'll see if I can carry it, but I don't think it will be possible except for the 5 days a year where I need to wear a jacket.
