What Do You Carry?

[Shotgun Franklin]

As in a handgun for self defense? I carry my work gun, a Glock 22 that I actually hate. I'm wanting to change guns maybe very soon.

[Wolfgang]

I carry a MK VI Webley in .45 AutoRim, . . or a Pietta made replica Remington New Model Army .44 cap & ball.   

[Delmonico]

My self I carry a 5 1/2 inch Single Six in 32 mag loaded with a 128 gr FNGC (Lyman 311316) with a healthy load of H110 that the 323 S&W duplicates, hand loaders have been doing the same thing for over 25 years.

[Modoc]

Kimber Ultra Cary in 45 ACP or a Furrin copy of the 1911a1 in 45 ACP.  Both have been customized for ease of shooting and both are well used as shooters.  Sometimes I will carry one of my Ruger Vaqueros, but that is more when I am out in the woods.

[Forty Rod]

Colt .380 Government or a SAA .45.

Mod 36  S&W

[Blair]

I prefer a Merwin Hulbert .38 S&W in public. The folding hammer is pretty tidy.

The next photo shows M H opened, with an 1851 Colt conversion

I carry a Kel-Tek .32 with a pocket holster, in the front pants pocket. You forget you have it, bout like a set of keys. I really like the new S&W Bodygaurd.

Shotgun.. no point in making them guess if I am packing or not right?  loll   I use to carry a SW 357 and a derringer 22 double shot.  Right now, I don't  carry a thing in the car with me.. I figure they will let me go about 10 miles down the road.. lol

[Shotgun Franklin]

33 years in Law Enforcement has convinced me that anyone who is capable of and can legally do so should carry some kinda gun. I don't go anywhere in public that I don't carry something.

[Deja vous]

Not going to disagree with you.. but I don't pack right now.  Those guns were sold, dumb but they were.  But I do like to keep my shotgun close by at home.. no point in using something else at home.. lol

Carrying a a Merwin Hulber, . . . Now that is ELLEGANT 

[Gypsy Bob]

been totin the same old commander 45acp  close to 30 years now, keep an under-fold AK-47 and a M-500 12 ga. pump in the trunk of my car,
got an OLD S&W 1917 45 acp (Bbl chopped to 4 in.) in the jockey box of my P.U. and a 94 Win. 30-30 in the window rack..
If I'm goin in the hills I 'might' bring my 375H&H.. (Griz gun)

[Shotgun Franklin]

I think that if you have to shoot someone you ought to do it with a classy gun. Shooting in self defense, of yourself or someone else, is a last ditch serious thing. It needs to be well thought out.

[GunClick Rick]

Snake shot and solid after that.

Carrying a a Merwin Hulber, . . . Now that is ELLEGANT 

I second that.  Your preferred carry gun is on the order of 130 years old.  Here in the Dominion, there is a loophole that allows to carry and shoot what is deemed "Antique status" pistols wherever one can legally carry and shoot a rifle.  Won't bore you all with the details, but our "Antique" requirements are more stringent (and stupid) than the Americans.  I have a pre-1898 Colt 1892 fixer-upper that I would like to carry as a bush gun.  Problem is that .38 Long Colt is not deemed an "Antique calibre" but .41 Long Colt is.  So that's on my to-do list.  I have a S&W #3 coming soon in .44 Russian that I may take out.  My minty Merwin Hulbert in .32 MH on the .38 frame has been deemed to valuable to haul around on a belt.

As for modern handguns... one can dream, thinking I'd lean toward a wheelgun.  Big bore, all 4's.

How about this one?Or one of those,i need a holster for those

That statement is about a testimonial....and a quote in the face of all gun grabbing liberals

well said Sir...and thank you
