An earlier post of mine got me thinking about that. For my walking around, warmer weather gun I usually carry a Makarov or a g-17/g-20 during coat wearing time(not too often in Fl). But in my bedside quick-safe I have my .45 that I shoot competition with, loaded in 10rd mag 230g Hydrashocks. Because I have a child two rooms down and I know that load wont penetrate the walls, and I perfer the .45 when concealment is not an issue.
When I go on a road trip my car gun is a Dan Wesson 6" barrelled .357mag 158g XTP. Because I know that the combination will penetrate a car door and a windshield, and a .45 or 9x18 wont.
Then when I go out into the woods or go fishing my sidearm of choice is a bull barrelled Ruger MkII-because I can hit a snakes head with it in 10 shots or less(3rd and 4th rounds are the CCI snakeshot).
Anyone else use different guns for different scenarios?
