Being a weapons collector, I'm always fascinated in everyones opinion of handguns or personal carry weapons. I have a concealed permit, however, I don't carry a firearm on my or in my vehicle. I always carry a knife because it's a tool more than a weapon. I will always have a club, bat, or something intimidating in case of a bad scene, but I'm never looking for trouble. My goto gun at the house would be my Colt 45 modified with a speed trigger or my S&W 9mm model 59. I leave the wife with a 38 snub revolver because all she has to do is point and pull the trigger, no loading, cocking, etc. My knives are mainly autos or otfs, usually to $$ to lose. Anyone else?

Gen 3 Glock 19 9MM. My everyday carry. 1st gun I ever fired was my Father's Gen 1 Glock 17. I've been a Glock Guy ever since.

Things get more interesting at home.

Remington 870 tactical, S&W AR15.

I'm still anxiously waiting for the Zombiepocalypse...

Sometimes when I'm alone at the house I take out my Remington 870 and pet it and talk to it. My carry though is a S&W Sigma 9MM. I am going to be picking up some compact 40 soon though. I'll probably go with a Sig.

I've got one of these, and you cannot find a better 1911 for the money. Fit and finish is top notch.

My favorite handgun right now is the G20. My buddy reloads, so he makes some proper, hot rounds. I love that gun.

Glock 26 in a Minatar hybrid, inside the pants holster. Never leave home without it.

Come get some.

S&W 40 cal no special mods. Had a S&W 9mm with an extended clip that was stolen. Since you bros seem to know a lot more about guns, maybe someone can point me in the direction of finding a nice piece for lefty's.

The original G. Great choice bro. Cocked and locked?

Ive had a bunch of hand guns but that is my favorite.

Its the same gun finish and all that is in Millgirls AV.
Chambered not cocked single action too dangerous. Ive seen some dumb ass police officers carrying cocked but not for me.

Bro no need to get a compact .40. They break your hand lol. Seriously, if they are far enough that you miss locating the front sight on a sub 40 takes too damn long. If they are close enough that you aren't going to miss then a .40 isn't going to do anything a 9mm won't. Hell just use a S&W body guard .38. Take the batteries out of the laser though. I fucking hate lasers

Being in the gun biz I have had quite a few personal carry guns over the years. I just swapped from a Nighthawk PDP 1911 bobtail .45 to a S&W 360 in .357. I know, its dinky and kinda girly but DAMN, its comfy to carry! The S@w was going to be the wifes carry but she is in love with my HK USP fullsize so since she carries a purse that can hold that bohemoth, Its hers.
