Hell yeah!

9mm or Chad's mostest favorite special caliber???

.9cm. I'd rather have 12 bullets that expand to .65 and penetrate to 14.5" than 10 bullets that expand to .70 and penetrate to 14"

I plan on carrying what best matches my outfit

One of those pretty rainbow Sig p238's. They really complement the color of my eyes.

Gotcha, I'll keep some 9mm in reserve then, least I can do is supply some ammo. :thumbsup:

I keep .45acp and 9mm as my 2 primary choices, .45 for when I feel better throwing small bowling balls at someone, 9mm for when I want to throw baseballs - disturbingly accurately though.

I was actually thinking just this. I'd probably drop the 300 for a pf9. I have no reason to buy a mini pistol until I can carry, though. Just bought a new pistol anyway, so it'd give me another month to contemplate.

This is what I carried most of the time before moving to Maryland (and a M&P40c when wearing bulky clothes). I could not imagine a better carry gun. Good firepower with +p 9mm, size that makes it disappear when carried, lightweight, and an optional belt clip that allowed no holster IWB carry (with a trigger block). In sum, the perfect carry gun for me. The sights suck, but at defensive ranges that's not a big concern.

With any luck, I will be able to dust it off sometime in the next couple years. :sad20:

I've been web surfing since starting this thread and keep going back to the P239. Was also thinking P229, but that might be a little too big.

Look at the P239 SAS 9mm oooh so nice!

Not a fan of the pocket carry firearms. Maybe for carrying around the house while doing hard work but all the little .380's and 9mm's dont scream out to me.

I'd be sticking with the smaller large 9mm's and .40.

Glock 19/23 or MP40C.

I felt the same way until I was carrying every day. I started carrying a Glock 30, then moved to a Glock 36, then a M&P40c, then a PF-9.

Some people I know are fine with big heavy guns, but it didn't work for me. I found the weight was distracting and the size always had me wondering if I was patterning outside my clothes. In the end, a very small 9mm proved to be the right compromise.

INMY01TA · Mar 7, 2012

I'm with Smokey.
S&W M&P9c

Or PF9 when it's warmer.

I'm also thinking about an LCR in 357.

BradMacc82 · Mar 7, 2012

Wow, so I'm the only one that's carrying a full-size M&P .45 then??

I'm only 5'10 and 160 lbs. and can conceal that easily.

I'll agree it's best to find something that works, even if it's not idea, because carrying something is better then nothing.

I've carried both a full size Sig and MP40C without issue. For me when looking at other options I didnt even consider the 26/27 since the size difference doesnt make up for the capacity and sight radius you give up.

If I was to CC a smaller firearm it would be a wheel gun.

P7 PSP

Want to get something for pocket carry as well... thinking LCP or LCR...

If I could my Kimber ultrcarrie 2 45acp. =)

Yoshi · Mar 8, 2012

CZ P-01

rstickle · Mar 8, 2012

When it comes to pass... I guess my SIG 239 (9 mm).

That's what I use in places I can carry.

Storm40 · Mar 8, 2012

my Px4 Storm in .40. since its the only pistol i have, except for a nagant revolver which isn't what i'd consider a carry gun.

hvymax · Mar 8, 2012

I might need to look into a Bersa Thunder or similar. I am a huge fan or having the SA/DA option and would like it in a pocket rocket. I suppose a compact single stack 9or 380 would be ok. For now it would have to be my Taurus 85CH or Kel Tek P11 both or which are DAO. I must say my EAA Witness goes in a Miami Classic nicely.

What do you plan to carry?
