I decided to go old school and carried my 1930 38/44 over the weekend on my friends property. It was real heavy on the belt but was neat to do it. So what is the oldest gun you've carried?

Nothing as vintage as the previous posters, but I currently EDC a Colt Series 80 Govt Model that I bought new back in the 90s. It was my first 1911. According to the Colt website, it was manufactured in 1993.
 
I carry this beater M&P from time to time. Dates from the 'teens.

I have carried this before several times in my pocket. Also have carried it in a leather case. It is a Colt 1903 Hammer in .38 ACP. The .38 ACP is the forerunner of .38 Super. This is 1914 manufacture.

Shipped April 1995 my 640-1. LOL

My oldest gun was shipped March 1960.
I never have felt much like carrying a M27 with a 6.5" barrel. ;)
 
M1910 FN Browning, Shoots well, fun to carry.
I believe 1911 production, 4 digit serial number. It now has wood grips and a set of original horn grips. Photo in original FN case. Alas it did not come from the factory with that finish (GI bring back)
