My current set-up(s):

IWB carry: H&K P2000sk 9mm w/ LEM trigger
pocket carry: Ruger LCP
night-stand: H&K USP .40 Compact (stainless)

I finally bought myself a real digital camera for Christmas, so I don't have to take pics with my iPhone anymore. It's a Canon PowerShot SD780is..nothing too crazy, but there are still so many things you can adjust! I'm still learning, but here are a couple of decent shots I took earlier of my USP.40c:

When I get a chance, I plan on cleaning all my guns for a nice photo shoot.:) I've been wanting to dress up my toys and take pictures of them so I can share with you guys!

You get the idea, I honestly try to learn which gun works the best for everything, I don't want to have to get different guns for everything. Maybe one day when I'm rich I'll change my mind. I would like a 6" 1911 10mm, a nice 4" Python, etc. But right now, I have no desire to carry or use anything other than what I've got.

I like that. All my guns have a purpose, but some can be used for multi-purpose. I have guns for self-protection, hunting, home protection, and Range and target shooting. Some are multi-purpose and some are designated for only one purpose, such as my CCW.
 
Of course, and I try to dream up other rolls, like (defensive carry if guns are outlawed (percussion .31)...yeah, I know, but I needed an excuse....:rolleyes::banghead:.

I have outdoor carries, CCW carries, hunting revolvers, hunting handgun (TC Contender), and just plain guns just because. I mean, I guess I don't REALLY need a reason, but it helps when I'm spending money. I'm so tight I squeak sometimes. But, if I weren't, I never could have gone into retirement at 51. While all those guys at the plant were buying fancy boats and fancy trucks, I was building a 401K...:D....what's left of it. :banghead:

But, as I get older, I'm learning that you can't take it with you. I'll start buying some REALLY nice stuff when I start gettin' my gubment checks. :D Or, maybe I should say, considering the state of the social security system....IF I start gettin' my gubment checks. :banghead:
 
Mossberg Cruiser for HD and trips to the city.
Taurus 24/7 Pro C 9mm IWB (daily carry) will most likely change after I get the CZ 75B
Taurus .22 mag 8 shot UL in my coat pocket.
S&W mod. 14 .38 spec. carried in shoulder holster but not always. (it's in pretty good shape for an old '58 and I wanna keep it that way)
Bersa Thunder Del .380 acp
Kimber .45 and a few others just for fun. Hope all I ever need any of them for is fun at the range.
