Caliber of your primary CCW?

[trickyasafox]

didnt ol' jmb originally design the 1911 around the 9mm but the military decided it didnt have enough umph, then came the 45?

 

[Marshall]

.357 J-Frame most all the time

9mm BHP the other times.

.40 XD a little.

 

[TechBrute]

.40 most of the time. I've been known to carry a .45 now and then, and I'll carry a 9mm if I can find a really smaller pistol than those that can be had in .40.

 

[Biker]

Taurus 450 (45 Long Colt) most of the time followed closely by a G23 or 27 (40SW). Sometimes a 380 acp.

[Stevie-Ray]

Primary?

.45 ACP

 

[TNGO]

10mm.

 

[Cavalry]

40 S&W 135-Grain, clips of three

 

[allen268]

How can you have a pole with the .22LR and .25 listed yet leave out two of the more popular CCW rounds, .40 S&W and 357Sig? That probably excludes at least half the people here.

 

[Punkermonkey]

.40 S&W (most of the time)

Carry gear:

 

[Too Many Choices!?]

If it doesn't have a 4 in front of it, you can keep it!

.40 S&W or .45 ACP depending on the weather, my mood, and planetary alignment

A short barreled .45 and a longer barreled .40

 

[Dr.Rob]

Wow 45 and 9 neck and neck... I thought the .357 would have scored higher.

 

[cool45auto]

40 S&W here.

 

[cardboardkiller]

.45 STI Ranger II, 9mm STI BLS9 and a S&W 325PD (it's a S&W getting an action job right now), but I am waiting on a 2.5" S&W 66-1 and a 2.5" S&W 19-3 that I'll stoke with some 158 LSWCHP 38 special loads after I get the appropriate action lightening done on them if need be.

I've got a 6" 66-5 that is going to be sent to get cut down to 3 inches, turned into a round butt, converted to moonclips, complete tune up with a DAO action job with bobbed hammer and brush hard chromed.

Mostly 9mm in a S&W 6906. Yeah, I have a bunch of other guns/caliber/rigs but the S&W and it's rig are the most comfortable for me. If 25 rounds of Gold Dot 115grainers weren't enough to solve my problem then don't blame the gun or the caliber. Blame it on me.

 

[cls12vg30]

I can't have a CCW because I live in Nazi Jersey but if I could I bet a CZ52 with the two rounds of vest busters followed by HPs would be under the front seat of my car.

hehe, this is exactly what lives under my driver's seat. Another lives in the coat closet next to the front door.

But my primary carry is an FEG SMC-918 (9mm Mak), so I had to say "Other".

 

[Alan Fud]

• .45ACP when it around freezing or below
• 9mm when the temps get over 80/85
• .40S&W the rest of the time

 

[1911.45]

.45ACP primary plus 9mm BUG

 

[klover]

.38 special

with a laser to help get it into the nostril hole

Sometimes .357 or .44 in the woods or on long trips.
