I use to rotate my edc guns between revolvers and semi auto's mostly J-frame .38's,semi auto's 9mm & 40. I bought a CA Bulldog .44 special 2.5" revolver and love it. Now I find myself carrying it 90% of the time now.I don't know if it's because I don't be in the streets as mush as I was when I younger.And I really didn't start carrying till seven years ago all the time. But I go no where without a gun these days.

Currently a ruger lcp II. My favorite pocket 380 I've ever fired.

I rotate in a 637 with classic wood grips and a kahr cm9 as well.
 
Another fan of the 637 here. Right now it's all I carry. I have g42 too, but I havent warmed up to it enough to carry it yet.
 
I usually go with either a S&W Model 638 or a Kahr CM9 as my EDC. Both have decent DA triggers and are about the same size and weight. For something a bit smaller I have my SIG P238.

Typically a Kel-Tec PF9 I've been carrying since 2010. It's often backed up by a P32.

A year or so back, I got a stainless Charter Arms Undercover dated from around 1985 or so. I carried a then-new blued one on the job for a few years starting in 1987, and also have my dad's Undercover, made in 1966, that he carried on the job, so I have a lot of respect for those older CA products. I've found myself carrying the stainless one a lot, too.

My current uniformed profession is not a "carry" one. I tote that P32, with its ten-round magazine, while traveling to and from work. Sometimes, though, I grab my Taurus PT738 instead, though.
 
Right now, a Kimber K6 .357. In the winter, when I can wear a vest, it'll be either a Sig 1911 compact or a Sig 1911 C3 in .45ACP. If reduced to pocket carry for whatever reason, it's a Sig P938 9mm.
 
Mine is S&W M&P shield performance center 9mm. At 19oz. I don't even feel it when carrying and 8+1 mag is enough. Recoil is minimal and I shoot it as well as I do my full size P-226 at 7 yds. I love my revolvers but my smallest is GP-100 4" and I find it to hard to conceal as well as heavy. I like the reliability of the revolvers, but until I find a suitable small one I that I can shoot well and doesn't kick like a mule I'll stick with the semi. My revolvers are my home defense guns as well as a 12ga. pump.
 
Cooler weather is allowing me to easily conceal a Sig P220. I've been carrying a 3" GP100 with a compact grip these past few summers. But night sights, a slightly higher capacity, larger grip, and easier reload in the dark all make the P220 a sound choice for colder months.
 
Summer I like lighter guns, so depending on what I'm training with a Glock (17 or 26), Sig 229 or Kimber Ultra Carry.

Fall/Winter/Spring is nearly always a 1911, though a Sig P245 w/220 mags and Glock 21 have made appearances.

Currently a Kimber Warrior
 
Rorhbaugh R9 with a Remington RM380 as a backup.

I work in crime-infested Chicago where the ruling politicians don't really deal with crime because it would cost them votes, they consider the criminals to be victims of social and economic injustice and the offenders only spend short stints in jail. The rest of the time the criminals are out car jacking, robbing and killing people. They steal cars so they can make forays into the suburbs where people are less cautious and easier to rob.

There really is no place that is safe in the North Eastern part of Illinois so I carry a gun with me all the time, even when I'm in my own home I have the R9 in my pocket.
 
Been carrying concealed 25 years and have increased size of carry over time.
Approximate timeline.
25 years ago: 380 / 38 snub
20 years ago: Glock 26/27
3 years ago: Glock 19/23
1.5 years ago: Glock 21 / 22 or full size 1911
Current: Glock 21 or 35 (I love the 35, disappears under untucked polo)

I can't carry at work. This work issue should be rectified in about 5 years, retire. :)
At times other than work my shirt is untucked and I carry a full size pistol plus 2nd option pocket gun (Kahr PM9/40)
Yes, even in the summer when the heat index is 100+ degrees, unless actually working outside, then just pocket pistol.
 
I don't rotate carry guns. If you are in a position where you have to use it ,pressure and anxiety will be very high. Don't want to be trying to think about what gun is on me right now.
I practice with my only carry gun a lot. If I have to use it, I want it to be my best chance without having to think about it. LCR .357 magnum
 
Been a glock 36 lately. Ill carry a pps as a change and at times a ppq. Walthers are both 9 mm.
