Kel Tec P11 or alternately a Taurus M85SSUL.

I'm wondering for the P3AT/LCP guys, is that a "mouse gun" or "subcompact"? How about a P32? The .32 should be a "mouse gun" IMHO, the .380 variant, don't know where you'd put it, could go either way. Probably a mouser, eh? But, the PPK would be a subcompact on this list, specifically named, so, seems that's a little ambiguous.
 
I normally carry my M&P 9c with 124gr HSTs in my Comptac C-Tac or Minotaur holster. I also carry a spare mag on my weak side and a 1 watt LED in my pocket. For times when thats not possible I carry my Ruger LCP with Federal Hydrashoks in a Desantis pocket holster with two spare mags on my belt.

Kahr TP9, with Blade-Tech Ultimate Concealment Holster with Ranger -T's
Note: the TP9 has a 4' barrel and in IMO conceals just at well as the PM9; the barrel rides on my behind a bit more but I don't loose any velocity and gain a better site radius.
 
A Case Canoe, I can't even have a gun in the car of the hospital I work at.
Technically I am not to have the Case.

I prefer S&Ws, I rotate 642, 60-4, 36, 65-5(with a 4" pencil barrel), 13, and a 581.
 
Almost all of the time now it is a 1911. Time of year and clothing just dictate what length the barrel and what size frame.
 
I used to carry a Ruger P345 when I first got my CHL, but I just bought a Ruger LCP a few weeks ago. After thoroughly testing both the gun and my carry ammo (golden saber) I have now started carrying only the LCP a majority of the time. It's just a lot more comfortable in the Texas summer.

There are still plenty of times that I carry the P345 as well as the LCP. It's a great combo for me.
 
Smith 49 BodyGuard
Browning Hi-Power with Detective Slide (Commander Sized)
Springfield Armoury 1911-A1 Mil Spec (Full Size)

Carry one or more of these on any given day.
