are those talon grips on your shield 45?
How do you like them? I have several on my other pistols, Not sure how i like the new texture on my shield 45. Ordered a set of rubber Talosn but not sure I'll put them on yet

I have Talons on my P99c. I absolutely love them. Adds just the right amount of texture. Adds no bulk, and look great in my opinion. Much nicer looking than a rubber grip sleeve. Not expensive either. Best $18 I've spent in years.

Most courthouses I know of wouldn't let you in with that handcuff key, much less the P38 . . .

I had no idea what a handcuff key even looked like until I was issued a pair of handcuffs. I wouldn't have given one a second glance

Except court house guards are more than familiar with cuff keys.

Gen 1 LCP ... Sweet Pea Trigger and Wolff Spring Kit upgrades ... Bear Creek Wallet Holster.

Among the other goods in my pockets.

LORDY,,,,someone else also carries a P-38 in their pocket!

Lotsa good stuff and good carry plans. How often do you shoot them just like you carry them? Outside the gates..2 Taurus Views..11 ounces loaded. Inside the gates Colt SAA 3 1/2 45 cal. Carry every step..shoot every day!! Even when the hurricane puts out the lights.

Yes they are the Talon rubberized grips...I actually put Talons on all my handguns.....I just like the feel that much.

Lartely, due to a need for not being "noticed" I have switched to this little pea shooter in a desantis "pop up" which requires violating rule 2 when you draw but daaaaamn it tucks deep. I carry a spare mag in my pocket, in a little carrier.



the rest of my carry items include a CRKT folder, a Fenix LD10 light, bottle opener, pocket monkey, Silver dollar.

I had a Ruger SP-101 but I wanted a little pistol and I was able to get a Beretta Nano with the laser sight for $400 new out the door. I couldn't get used to the laser so I sold it for $100 so I have made out really well. I changed out what I had on the grips, first I had the Talon, then the Pachmayr but now I really like the Hogue slip on. It shoots very well for what it is.




As far as the rest of my EDC, well, a Buck 110, a Leatherman, my Streamlight flashlight and a handkerchief.

 

[carpriver]

One of these, depending on the day.

I'm the boring one: Glock 26 with an extra 17 round mag. This covers about every EDC situation I have. Before I switched to the Glock (3 years ago), I spent 15 years carrying a 642-1 with an additional 64-4 2" if I needed more.

Depending on my needs, the Glock is carried in:

An Alessi Ankle holster w the 10 round factory mag.
A Galco Horsehide Pocket holster w the 10 round factory mag.
A Mitch Rosen Clipper w the 12 round factory mag.
A Mitch Rosen Premier w the 12 round factory mag.

I traded my 3913 out for a Shield 45 carried in a fobus paddle holster with an under shirt and cover shirt. My badge is right in front of my holster. I never carry openly except of course while on duty.

Since buying this revolver I have not carried anything else.
It is a Ruger LCR 357 with a Talon canted holster which is made for the LCR. I carry this gun and holster in my front pocket. Very comfortable and easy access also. The trigger is awesome.

 

[crazyphil]

Seems like we have had this subject a few times before, but I don't mind
posting my EDC again: Ruger SP101 Concealed Hammer .357 Mag.
Crimson Trace, KD oxblood holster with gator trim, Simply Rugged
oxblood belt, Kershaw's Junkyard II knife, Remington Golden Sabers plus
5 more in a speed strip.

Here is a better photo of the SP101 with a Price Western version of
Chic Gaylord's Speed Scabbard and a Milt Sparks belt.

Nice pictures but holy cow...some of you carry enough to defend an entire city.

I carry a MP9C with CT in an Uncle Mike size 12...no extra mags, no knives, or other self defense tools.

It's keys hooked into belt loop, wallet, pistol, phone, and I'm off.

The extra mag isn't usually for fear of running out of ammo. It's because the most likely cause of a malfunction is mag related so the spare is to use if the first one fails for any reason. And for many of us the knife is more of a task oriented item then a defensive weapon though in a pinch it can serve that role as well.

I understand the perceived need to carry a spare magazine, as dumping the old magazine, clearing the weapon and inserting a fresh mag is the next step if "tap, rack, bang" fails.

On the other hand, in the real world a self defense situation will be over by then, so if you carry a semi-auto, it needs to be very, very reliable.

That's potentially an argument in favor of a revolver.

This is my day time EDC, although the revolver may vary from time to time, and at times I'll carry a speed strip instead, or even more often, just leave the extra ammo in the car:

At night I add a light:

The most important item is the pair of progressive readers.
