Do you carry All the time.

When I leave the house, I carry. Hell, I carry a gun more often then I wear underwear.

When I get out of bed, my Keltec PF9 in 9mm goes in the pocket of whatever pants I am wearing and stays until the pants are put in the dirty clothes hamper.

TMI Gunny..




OP, I cannot say all the time as I travel internationally for work. That means not even a pocket knife in most places.

When I am in the USA. 98.% ish.

The 2% is for when I have to go where guns are prohibited.

I carry all day everyday. The only places I dont, are places where theres a metal detector or a pat down.

When I get dressed in the morning till I get ready for bed at night.

I won't go anywhere I can't carry unless I absolutely have to, like reporting for jury duty.

I'm not saying... .

All the time. G19 in my travel bag everywhere and LCP in the pocket or G43 IWB. I definitely get your problem though, it was an annoyance to me for a while, couldn't find the right holster+gun combo, always felt awkward. An LCP in an uncle Mike's sorted that out pretty quick, if you can comfortably carry a wallet you.can pretty much manage an LCP until you find the right gun+holster, position, etc...

I travel a lot internationally as well, mostly Asia, and I have to say; most places I feel safer than big city America.
Japan, China, Thailand are fine. Japan is just safe. Thailand, If you get in trouble in it’s likely to be with the military and a PDW isn’t going to help.
The only real exception, since I don’t travel the Middle East, is Mexico. I would prefer to carry there but of course that’s not possible. However, my company provides a high level of security there.

Pert near. I'm carrying even if all I'm doing is yard work, or working on a project out back.
As I've said before though, there are occasionally places I have to go where carrying a gun is forbidden, or even illegal - I occasionally have to go to the post office, the courthouse, or the social security office. I don't like it when I have to go to one of those places, but I do it.
Another example of a place I have to go where I won't be carrying is the doctor's office. I have an appointment there tomorrow morning for my annual wellness exam. There's a "No Weapons" sign on the door. When I'm just taking my wife there for her monthly INR test, I normally just ignore that sign. But tomorrow morning I'll be getting examined myself, so I won't be carrying. Besides, my gun adds a little to my weight - which is already on the border between okay and my doctor telling me I need to lose a little.

The only thing I can carry comfortably around the clock is my LCP. I can easily go all day with it. If I am around home in my usual familiar places, I am fine with my LCP.

If I'm in unfamiliar territory on the road, I carry my sr9c.

As long as I'm wearing shorts or pants there is a gun in the pocket. If I'm in my house I have a loaded gun within three or four steps from any place in the house. (small house)

Middle East is a lot safer than Mexico for sure..

Unless there is a metal detector, I'm carrying.

During the 18-19 hours a day that I am not sleeping, I do not carry 100% of the time. Perhaps as much as 95%.

FYI, as I sit here typing this, my .45acp XDs Mod2 (in its DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster) is on the table beside me. I take it out my pocket (as a single unit) when I expect to be sitting for more than a couple of minutes. I count that as "carry" time.

If I leave the house I'm carrying. Where it is prohibited, either by law or the property owner, I will comply with their restriction and not carry if I have to go there. If there is another similar business that has no such restriction they get my business. I frequently forget my cell phone but never my firearm.

90% of the time, give or take.

Everyday, everywhere legal

With very few exceptions, all the time.

24/7/365 everywhere I legally can.

Got my license a couple of days ago, but don't carry because I simply don't feel like it.

All day, everyday unless I am at work.

Nope. Less than 50% of the time.
