How Many Change Carry Guns?

Though I've previously switched back and forth between many different guns, lately it's either my Glock 19 or an N Frame revolver (I have several), and I don't see that chaniging anytime soon. All are essentially point and shoot weapons. In addition I always carry either a S&W 442 or a Taurus 650 as a BUG.

Depends on what I am wearing

Most of the time a Taurus .45 ACP revolver but sometimes a Glock 30. Normally IWB for both. Depends on what I am wearing and which one conceals best.

I like my revolvers, but like my autos, too, and I switch according to whim, mostly. I keep everything DA or DAO so I ain't switching from SA auto condition one to revolver to whatever and I can change guns without changing the function, long DA trigger stroke and no safeties to mess with.

I have a bunch of revolvers, but mostly either tote a Kel Tec P11 or a Taurus M85UL, but lately I've been totin' my new to me SP101 a lot.

I live in Florida and only pocket carry. The only gun I have suitable is a Kel-Tec P-32. I'd love a Rohrbaugh R9 and if anyone would like to donate one to me, I'd be happy to carry it instead.

I'm not really sure how I fit. I have a P3AT and a P239. At work I only have the P3AT. Anywhere else, I carry both pistols. I wish I had more pistols to choose from

Depends on time of year and what I'm wearing.
I have four main carry guns - S&W 642, Sig P239 SAS 9mm, Sig P229 .40S&W DAK, and a Sig P220 SAS Carry.

I voted "always carry the same" although strictly speaking, that's not true.

However, my summer carry (Kahr PM9) and my winter carry (Kahr P45) are functionally identical, and the carry method is the same. Only the size/weight of the pistol varies, and not by much.

I have 5-8 guns that I consider adequate for carry (Glock 26, Glock 19, Glock 23, S&W 1911PD, Kahr P9, Kahr P40....), meaning that I've fired boatloads of rounds through each and trust them completely. However, I keep finding myself instinctively grabbing either the G23 or the 1911PD. I always carry in an AKJ Concealco IWB, somewhere between 7 and 8 o'clock (I'm a lefty).

Ditto what Doc said.

Maybe a third poll option: "one primary and occasionally a different one."

It depends on what I am wearing and the season.
I prefer my Colt Gold Cup Trophy but when I cannot carry a full size I carry a Colt Compact.
I have been testing the Colt New Agent and I believe this will be my new choice for a small carry pistol.

I always carry my Steyr M40-A1. In the summer, when it gets hot here in Texas, I sometimes carry in my laptop case. I sewed a holster into it and it's easily accessible at all times, but also still concealed.

That is the gun I know best, the gun I can hit with, and the gun I know isn't going to jam.

But I also have a Kahr PM-40 clipped into my waistband just in case I can't get to my bag.

When the weather allows me to carry the Steyr, the PM-40 goes in an anckle rig.

I choose between several possible CCW guns based on clothing, weather and destination. Sometimes just because I want to carry something different or special.

By far, my Beretta Tomcat is with me the most. However, depending on the situation, I may carry something else. For example, if I am going to be driving the Mountain Parkway, something that can handle the very real possibility of meeting up with some wildlife is with me such as a .357. If I am in a not-so-nice part of town, something with high-capacity is with me like a 9mm. The other factor is my mood. Sometimes I just feel like putting up with a .45 and having some extra heat onboard!

70% of the time its either 442 or seecamp in pocket.but I'll carry about any thing in the safe.most carry guns are 1911 or da revolver friendly.IMHO a natural pointing firearm is more important than mode of operation.getting the first shot off does not win gunfights getting the first hit will.

I voted that I change between weapons, and this is between semi and revolver. But I much prefer to carry my semi. And I carry it through the summer, and to work, (a very anti-gun establisment). But under certain, very difficult to prevent -the-print situations, I'll switch to my 5-shot .38. This is less than 5% of the time. I used to carry it quite frequently, but like the higher-capacity, better power of my .45 ACP pistol, and dress around my gun most of the time in order to not have to switch.

I prefer to change my carry weapon like women change their shoes and Flava Flav changes his bling.

I have three .357 SP101 snubbies, with varying hammer types, and one of them is with me virtually 100% of the time. So, from that viewpont, I do not rotate or switch. But, the SP101 is rarely alone, and its role may change during the day, such as when I am my police uniform, and the SIG P229R DAK is on my hip, the SP101 migrates to "back-up gun" status. Even out of uniform, the SP101 is usually accompanied by another handgun, which may be another SP101, a 4" Speed Six, a 4" GP100, or, rarely, the SIG. All of these carry guns have a long-stroke DA trigger pull, though the SIG can be used in short-reset mode. I had tried to use a Glock with this mix, but found that shooting the short-trigger-stroke Glock had a negative influence on my skill with longer-stroke DA shooting. Bottom line, I do always carry the same gun, but I also carry different guns, though I try to keep all of my normal, serious carry handguns similar in operation.

I carry a Baby Browning all the time. I add my 6" pre-model 10 when carrying openly or when weather permits better garments for concealing a bigger hand gun. When I have more money, I intend to get something in between, like a snubby .38 or maybe a Colt 1903. Okay, I like the classics.

How many change carry guns

Glock 19 for summer and Glock 21 for winter.

Will be getting a Glock 30 for the between seasons.

Kel-Tec P-11 or 357-model 60 Smith in summer , 44 Colt Anaconda in winter ,or walking the dog in the back country.

Switching Carry guns

In winter with bulky clothes or if I'm just in my car too and from work I carry a 5" 1911 either in a Bianchi bag or a Blackhawk CQB Serpa paddle. Where concealment is more of an issue or in the Summer if I'm walking around town I carry my Sig 232 .380 in either a Bianchi bag or a Bianchi 3S IWB holster with thumbbreak.

I have 4 guns I carry depending on what's going on. To the movies I carry my G26 because it's so small it's comfortable to sit on for 2+ hours. Often to run up to the grocery store I throw on my 1911 because it sits in its CTAC near my clothes. My G17 is my favorite to shoot and carry but it's reserved for home protection. My girlfriend doesn't know (or want to know, at least for now) anything about guns. But she does know where the Glock 17 lives if she ever needed it and it doesn't have any complicated safeties like the 1911. If I'm going somewhere I know I won't need a gun, I take my Raven.

sig 229 winter..sig p232 summer

I switch between three different guns, depending on what I can conceal at the time. It's good to have options.

I'm about 85/15 between a couple of revolvers. The .38 is more comfortable without a doubt. I feel better in the woods with the .357.


Had a mousegun, but it did not last in my rotation very long.
