I own ALOT of full size HGs and when I'm home I usually carry a Springfield XD45 Tactical or a 4 or 5" 1911 BUT I spend most of my time driving a truck over the road hauling VERY high profile cargo, I also must carry very large amounts of cash, Because of the types of loads I carry I usually am sleeping in very bad areas, in fact in the last 12 years there have been 27 attempts to either rob or hijack me.... Now that said, the federal government decided proffesional drivers should not be allowed to keep a firearm on theire person or in ANY commercial vehicle.... even CCW holder which happen to be an ex leo and a 9 year Army vet etc... so........... ya know the P3AT has become VERY popular with proffesional drivers, it can literally be concealed behind a 2" leather belt or even in a pack of cigs, it will totally vanish within the interior of a road truck, in fact I had a state trooper once take possesion of my log book, spend 5 minutes examining all the entries and never even realized there was a gun right under his left palm in the calculator pocket of the small binder.............. uhhh do that with ANY 9 mm or .40 period........... and no the trooper was not being nice this was in a VERY rabid antigun state VERY rabid and he was pissed cause he couldn't find anything to bust me for after stopping me for alledged speeding only to find out my truck is GPS equiped and it recorded my speed when he claimed Ias 10 over.... he tossed my log book and other docs in the passenger seat and told me to get the hell out!
As they say better to be tried by 12 than carried by 6.........
