ripper225 0 Posted January 11, 2008 Report Share Posted January 11, 2008 i will say that hardcore 10mm supporters refer to the .40s&w as the ".40 short and weak" and it was too much recoil for the FBI's tastes. hey now... the .40 guys prefer to refer to the 10mm as the .40 magnum lol Glock 23 here... 13+1 deadly zombie stoppers Quote Link to post Share on other sites

buckandaquarterquarterstaff 5 Posted January 12, 2008 Report Share Posted January 12, 2008 For me... Shorts and tee shirt gun - P3At loaded with corbon DPX's Small carry gun - Taurus PT145 loaded with Hornady XTP's Midsize carry gun - Sig 229 (357 sig) with Gold Dot 125's Full size gun - Witness 10mm with whatever the hell I can find for it. When I'm hiking in the sticks gun (fall through spring) GP100 357 mag for social work and a pocket full of 38 wadcutters for small "meals" without obliterating the meat.

Saigaczech 9 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Dependent on weather and mood. Hot summer days I carry a CZ-83 in 9x18 Mak with Hornady XTP JHP loads. Other times I am usually wearing a Springfield XD-9 Service as it has yet to fail me in function or accuracy. I also have a HK P2000 in 9mm with the LEM trigger system, a customized (Novak tritium sights, extended beavertail safety, commander hammer, full length guide rod, dropped and flared ejection port, magwell and ambi safeties) Springfield GI Champion 1911, a CZ-75B compact and a pair of .38 Special snubbies from Taurus. My carry gun is depending on mood/threat level and I rated master with any and all of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ajackb 0 Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 Living in FL does not allow for a lot of concealment so I stick with a Kahr PM9 in either a Densatis pocket holster or IWB holster. I also rely heavily on a KelTec P3AT in a Desantis pocket holster for it's convenience. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vultite 57 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Carry gun should be whatever fits your clothes and your hand. I carry a 1975 hi power with 15 rd mags, and decked out with C&S parts and new sights, do i need all of it? nah, but its nice to have, its not a comfortable carry, but a comfortING one =D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Saigaczech 9 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 I'm not sure if I posted this here or not, but 2 weeks ago I swapped out my ol S&W .40 for a Taurus PT-92AF. mine has the double tactical rails, and 4x17 round mags Yeah the Taurus PT92 and PT99 are good guns. I have and older PT99 which only has the frame mounted safety, no decocker ability and love it. For under $400 they are great service pistols and quite accurate. Most people do not know that this was the original Beretta 92 design and that Tauruses were made on original Beretta factory tooling. Why Beretta added a slide mounted decocker I will never know (actually, I do know but that does nto sound so good hehe). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
paprotective 362 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Sig 228 with 9mm Remington GS 124 +P. and BUG is KelTec P32 with Winchester Silvertips. When I HAD my G30 Glock I was running Triton 450SMC (that was a load) and then some Taurus 45 ammo that was pretty neat and supposedly good. I still have the Barsto 400 Cor-bon barrell and a box of 400 Corbon for it. That was supposed to be Super 40 type of load. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DHunter 1 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 M&P.45 loaded with 240gr Ranger SXT's. BUG is a .22lr NAA mini revolver. The little woman just picked-up a Kahr 9mm this weekend and some 147gn Ranger SXT's for her to carry. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
getitat 609 Posted January 14, 2008 Report Share Posted January 14, 2008 Hello, buckandaquarterquarterstaff Ditto your first two choices. The P3At when you need SOMETHING and the PT 145 (Millenium Pro) for a small handful of reliable firepower! I've never had a single hiccup from my Taurus. Respectfully posted, guido2 in Houston For me... Shorts and tee shirt gun - P3At loaded with corbon DPX's Small carry gun - Taurus PT145 loaded with Hornady XTP's Midsize carry gun - Sig 229 (357 sig) with Gold Dot 125's Full size gun - Witness 10mm with whatever the hell I can find for it.

buckandaquarterquarterstaff 5 Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 My taurus needed a fluff and buff on all the parts to get 99.9% reliable (especially the bbl keyhole), but now it's a fine compact too. 11 rounds of 45 in a package that goes IWB for 3 seasons is really nice to have. I'm even thinking of getting one of the new DA/SA models. Only dislike is that it doesn't handle long wadcutters for practice. It's between that or another CZ82, or a 229 9mm, or a k31, or a s223. Decisions, decisons... I really don't care for the P3at, but my J frame just isn't as compact as the p3at. However, the J frame is a wonderful point and shoot gun, very instinctive. I'm all over the place in fast drills with the P3at, but as you say, better than nothing. Were it not for the lack of a full length ejector, I'd find a way to carry the J frame in the summer. I love small and midsized revolvers, and can outshoot any of my pistols with them. What I cut teeth on... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MaineMarshal 0 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 I carry a Glock 23 on the job but for off duty CC I used to carry an XD-45 Tactical. Yes, that's right the big 5 inch There's something about carrying a .45 that just seems right. I did find the XD a little too big and uncomfortable for CC though so I changed out to a Taurus 24/7 Pro. Still a big .45 but much more comfortable for CC. Fits me well.

Threecard 15 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 (edited) I carry a HK USP .40 compact most of the time, sometimes a .38 S&W. I highly recommend the HK because it's 12+1 in a relatively concealable package. Also, I've put just over 6300 rounds through it without a single stoppage. If you like 1911's Kimber is a great gun at a reasonable price, for what you get. It'll likely set you back north of a grand, though. And if you like the CZ, a Browning High Power is a possible option as well. Edited January 19, 2008 by Threecard Quote Link to post Share on other sites

gears4554 0 Posted January 19, 2008 Report Share Posted January 19, 2008 Well the topic title explains it all, I've got 30-60 days to figure out what my next purchase is. I'm a 1911 guy, so I like slim grips and heavy guns. Nothing against glocks, I just don't care for them. Any suggestions? I like the fit of a compact Baby Eagle, but I'm open to suggestions. Something SA/DA, around 12 rd mags in .40, safety is optional. Opinions? I am a 1911 guy too. I have had many ot them and still cary two custom match grade 1911's one is a norinco 5" and I spent much time making it better than a match grade gun, the other is a springfield v10 ultra comp 3-1/2" gun. I have and have had many hand guns but for hary I just keep going back to the hard hitting ,reliable,comfortable 1911a1. ruger wheel guns 45 double stacks and so on just don't seem right for me.

shaneman153a 39 Posted January 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Alright, I bit the bullet and bought a Glock 26. I feel like such a traitor to my 1911 peeps. Can't wait to shoot it, and it's light to carry. Damn, I did it again. Got a G23. This shit is addictive!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

philg80 1 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 My carry is a CZ 75 "Semi-Compact" with night sights. I looked for one of these forever and finally found one. They were a very limited production with a full size 75 frame holding 16rnd mags but has the slide of a compact model. Accurate and loaded with firepower. Plus as a bonus all of my mags for my "Open" SPO1 will fit. Potentially I have 144 rounds of 9mm at my disposal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reverendfranz 160 Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 has been getting out with me more and more often, its much more concealable than the 1911, and still .45acp "God's Caliber" Quote Link to post Share on other sites
