I would carry a compact 1911 frame.
which one?
Make THEM (manufacturers) bid on the right to become "the sidearm of the president" with proceeds to charity.
Then fill out and use the event as an excuse to properly set right the personal carry rights of DC residents.... Then work on maryland.
Then tour New York and california and pick a gun rights fight at every stop, continue until sanity is restored.
Then my own version of a bully pulpit with a big stick aimed at restoring individual rights and seperating the ideas that individual rights have to be compromised excessively to get state/federal services.
But I am crazy, I mean, I don;t even mind high taxes if the return on investment in terms of services, living conditions and economic health/opportunity can "sell" the rate. We just haven't managed to get our money's worth. I mean, for all the otherwise questionable laws on personal rights and freedoms, much of the left europe DOES manage things like health care, education assistance, etc quite well. I want the best of both worlds with benefits worth the taxes AND my individual rights in terms of privacy, free speech/religion, weapons rights, property rights secured, with a tough as all heck border but sensible LEGAL immigration standard. (simple - legal immigrants are great,and typically work hard and actually appreciate the rights and opportunities of the country. illegal immigrants absolutely must be stopped, as they not only undercut domestic job markets, they reflect a dodge around the process of choosing to become a member of the country, and not just a body taking up space)
thusly, I stand no chance whatsoever of any election.
