As much as I like my Commander
This has become carry gun #1.
I carry it in a cheep Uncle Mike's fabric IWB holster

When I carry OWB which is 90% of the time my gun of choice is my Springfield Champion.
If I am in the woods it is always my Sig P220ST or Kimber Custom TLE II.
In the office or in church it is my Taurus PT145 or my Kel-Tec P11.
If I am walking or jogging it is my Stainless Para Ordnance Carry 12 in a Fanny Pack.

Started out carrying a Sig 239 pancake style but I was limited to having to wear my shirt tails out or a jacket and that wasn't always an option. Now I almost exclusively carry a KelTec P11. I usually carry it in a Fobus paddle because its easy to put on and take off. When tucked in I carry it in a Hign Noon Hidden Impact which is a tuckable IWB. It's also small enough to fit in my pocket. Both holsters and the KelTec fit in a zippered gun rug and make for a convenient place to keep everything when I'm in situations where CCW isn't allowed.
I'd love to be able to carry my Sig or 1911 everywhere all the time but I can't do that. If it's legal-my Kelly is on me.

I carry a S&W 642 in my right front pocket all the time. At the gym is the only exception, and I work out at the university complex, a relatively safe environment. I have a Kel Tec P3AT but I never carry it, though I have thought about bringing it in for gym duty.
I also carry one speed strip and a knife of some sort, normally a benchmade 705 or Spyderco Calypso Jr.
Oh, and an LED light of some sort. If going out a night, a Surefire Aviator or L2, but EDC is a Inova on the keychain.

Nice 36, got one NIB just like it purchased in 78 or so.
I see you carry various ammo in the cylinder, brass and nickel cases. Reason? Loads used in that cylinder?

Since I have to carry either a 6906 or SW99 .40 every day as my issued weapons, and will soon be trading both of those back in for an issued 4566TSW, I generally carry something lighter on my own time. Not always or exclusively, mind you ... but generally. There are certainly some instances and situations where the issued duty weapon serves as the off-duty weapon, as well, or I simply feel like carrying one of my larger framed and/or heavier personally owned weapons.
Anyway ... MOST of the time ...
That 'something lighter' is generally a 642-1, and to a lesser amount it sometimes includes one of the following ... G26, G27 or CS9. Just depends on my manner of dress, planned activities, and where I may be traveling. An evening down at the local cigar lounge may only 'require' the 642-1 or the CS9 being dropped into a light jacket pocket. If I'm wearing a jacket which I don't plan to remove while out and about, then one of the little Glocks often fills a belt holster. The G26 gets the nod more often than the G27.

Brownie, thanks on the compliment. Mine was NIB when I picked'r up too. Great little guns. I've put many miles on this one and she still runs like a champ! 
Nah, just like you said, a few nickel cases or aluminum, whatever they are. I think they started life as blazer or something. And I have regular brass too. They are just my homeloads, so there isn't any variety other than all the prudy colors Everything is a SWC.

Depending on weather and attire either a Kahr PM9 in a pocket holster (liking my new KD Pocket Defender) or a Glock 19 in a rotopaddle Fobus at about 11 o' clock for crossdraw.
Occasionally I'll carry the SW1911 Commander but the Dan Wesson I bought to provide a 1911 carry option has not yet proven itself enough for me to carry that one.

SP101 .357, either in High Noon Hidden Alley IWB or Don Hume OWB holster.
On occasion I'll carry my CZ97B in a HBE OWB.

Most of the time I carry my duty gun off duty a Wilson CQB with light rails in a Milt Sparks Versa max 2 with two spare mags. When I am jogging I carry my Glock 26. I also use the 26 when I am traveling out of town. Don't trust the airlines with my 1800 dollar Wilson.

What do I carry?
Most of the time a Kel-Tec P-11. I recently got a Makarov that I really like. I've never carried it, but may from time to time.
My wife carries a Bersa 22. She likes it. She shoots it well. She has been eyeing the Makarov though after shooting a 2", 8 shot group with it at 10 yards the first time she shot it. She said "COOL. I like this one."

I use a combination of backpack carry and then I change to a fobus paddle holster when i need it. I only have one pistol, my sig p229 in .40, so thats what I carry. I carry it with a 12rnd mag filled with golden Saber 165gr. i carry 2 10 round mags of same in the backpack.
I also carry the sig in my camelback pack when hiking or mtn biking.
And i thank the Vermont Constitution every day i don't need a permit, even in my car.

Kimber fullsize stainless, built by C&S, with the grip cut to officers length. Holster is a Rosen ARG. Belt by Wilson or Rosen (Rosen has some great looking dress gunbelts). I also wear a pair of Perry suspenders. The Perrys spread the weight of the heavy steel gun across my shoulders, and my pants never need pulling up.
