I do not yet carry, but I've always heard tell from several people close to me something along the lines of "Don't carry anything not readily found, afforded, or replaceable. You ever have to use it, you probably won't get it back". They own quality handguns, but they all carry run-of-the-mill new production handguns, from an LCP, Smith 637, and several others I can't recall. Handguns that you could run to the local Academy and take your pick of from the display. They don't carry Colt Gov't's, Pythons, old Smith Mdl 36's, etc.
On the other hand, I have another handful of buddies that carry handguns not as readily found or replaceable- Colt Gov't Mdl's, a Python, a Colt SAA, an original Mdl 36, etc. Pieces that you don't just find growing on Academy display counters.
To which group do the community of THR fall ? The "I'll carry something readily replaced group", or the "I bought it to use it, I'm gonna use it" group ?
