Who’s carrying what?

[Cellar Hound]

I’m sure this has been discussed and the intent of the thread is not to create a debate. I am simply curious. If you had to pick one gun for carry how would you answer the following two questions?

I’ll go first by saying if I only had one choice I would pick D (DA/SA) and B (No safety).


What configuration would you carry?
A - Revolver
B - Double Action Only (semi auto)
C - Single Action Only (semi auto)
D - Double Action / Single Action (semi auto)
E - Other

Would the gun have a manually operated safety lever?
A - Yes
B - No

Large dog.

 

[ColbyBruce]

1) I fluctuate between B and D
2) B

I carry a double action revolver, .38 special, 4"bbl., in a holster on my right hip. Where it belongs. If I want to conceal it, just leave my shirt tail out or wear a jacket if it is cool. Couple of speed strips or speed loaders, depends on size pockets in whatever I have on.

Colt Commander in 45 acp

 

[TomkinsSP]

M640......

 

[Godslayer]

My current situation leaves C (single stack striker fire no safety) as my EDC. That's only cause in FL I'm limited to concealed carry. Let's face it with it this hot it's hard to cover a huge gun.
If open carry was an option, I'd go for a full-size Double/Single with a safety.

 

[ldryder]

Usually it's A and occasionally D

 

[WheelGunMagic]

Only revolvers for me

 

[carpriver]

I carry a 1911 commander, cocked and locked, so I guess it's a single/double action with a manual safety. with 2 reloads.

 

[31FordA]

I carry a revolver every day. Currently a SP-101 or 64-2 backed up by a 340M&P.

When I have carried an automatic it was always a cocked and locked 1911.

 

[shouldazagged]

Pocket-carried steel DAO revolver, a 640 no-dash, every day for years. Simple is good. So is reliable.

 

[Hang-Fire Hank]

MY CHOICES

Model 65LS or 66 half the year (snake season). Both 3" barrels.

Old Colt LW Cmdr in .45 ACP, chambered/cocked/locked the other six months.

To each his own, as long as you are comfortable.

"carrying what?"
Six hours ago I was thinking that I have not seen a "What are you carrying?" topic thread for a while in the flashlight forum or in this forum. My thought was: When it happens, will it be a new thread, or a lengthy old thread bumped up?
Well, anyway, by night: Acebeam X65vn or two of them and G29 10mm 775 m.e. Underwood, or Thrunite TN42vn and .40 Shield 582 m.e. Underwood, or Acebeam X45vn and Defender .45 Super 694 m.e. Underwood, or any other combination/permutation.
By day: Same as above, but S2 Baton instead of the super magnum lights, and either one of the firearms, rotating daily on whim.

Single/double action Commander??

Same here.

 

[mgriffin]

Usually A sometimes D

 

[BAM-BAM]

In Penn's Woods...... a revolver ......3 or 4 inch 66 or my "Kit Gun" a 3" micro 686.......... aka 60-10.

In the "City of Brotherly Love" or other urban area in Penn's Colony a single/double action 9mm auto..... w/ a decocker only if I can get one! Otherwise de-cocked "safety" off. 90% of the time it's a S&W 3913NL

 

[oldiesradio1560]

My daily carry is my 640-1 Pro Series with 125 gr. Critical Defense.

Would the gun have a manually operated safety lever?
A - Yes
B - No

IF I were limited to a single firearm for carry, I would choose C from the first section, Single Action Only (semi-auto) and A from the second section, Manually Operated Safety Lever - Yes.

Example: Kimber Super Carry Ultra .45 ACP.

Fortunately, I'm not limited to one gun, and have no plans to leave my others out of my carry routine.

 

[crazyphil]

Revolver, DAO, No safety.

 

[DD357]

A, (I'd be OK with B as well) - B

 

[cybermgk]

I CARRY

1. Walther PPS M2 LE - Striker fire semi-automatic with trigger safety and external physical indicator of trigger pull.

2. Taurus TCP - DAO semi-auto when I need to pocket carry.
