What Size Hole Makers Are in That There Handgun?

[Amadeus]

What caliber handgun do you carry for your CCW/CHL?

 

[joab]

Was carrying either a 45 or .38. As of today I'll be carrying .44spl

 

[Brian Williams]

I like the 9mm caliber
940 in 9mmx19
13 in 9mmx32R
586 in 9mmx32R

AKA 357

 

[Standing Wolf]

I didn't see .44 magnum listed. I don't know what a ".38/.357 magnum" might be.

 

[tc300mag1]

I voted 9mm only becuse i carry it most of the warm weather time ... right now im carrying a 45 fullsize.

 

[coma]

Right now i have on my P229 in .40

Yesterday it was the P239 in 9mm

Someday it will be a 1911 in 45 acp or a M610 Smith ans Wesson in 10mm

 

[Harbinger]

.38 special most of the time.
.45 sometimes.
.38/.357 once in a while.
.380 when I'm James Bond.

 

[Wakal]

18 rounds of 9 by 23 Supercomp in a STI Commander.

.45 ACP most of the time, soon to be .40 S&W sometimes and I've carried 9x19 before

Defective Poll

Does not allow for multiple choices.

- .45 ACP (70% of time)
- .380 (25% of time)
- 7.62x25 Tok (on occasion)
- .45 Colt (on occasion)
- .22 LR in pocket (always)

[Win75]

9mm for summer carry and 45ACP in the winter.

 

[Chupacabra]

.40S&W for me. I like the 165grain Golden Sabers and 180grain Hydrashoks.

I would also feel very comfortable carrying a .45 or a 9mm. I would definately want HPs for the 9mm though.

 

[Marko Kloos]

.40S&W or .38 Special....Golden Sabers in 165gr. in the former, and the new Speer 135gr. GDHPs optimized for snubbies in the latter.

 

[Billy Sparks]

The only problem is that depending on my mood it is either a 9mm or a 45 acp. See I have contracted this disease...its called 1911want.

 

[HiWayMan]

Speer 140gr JHP .357mag handloads @ 1100fps, times 5 rounds.

Git-R-Done

 

[why_me]

.40

But i dont carry. Does that count?

 

[nhhillbilly]

40 because it is issued to me.

 

[Black Snowman]

I carry in my house, it's can be several things but is usually a .40 S&W. I can keep a gun in the car in SOME parts of my state (unfortunately cities and counties make it weird). It's usually a .40 S&W then. My CZ 85 Compact or my CZ RAMI, or both.

Sometimes I'll carry my Delta Elite, Glock 24P, or my Taurus 455 Ti in the house. The shotty is handy in the house so the pistol is just so I can return fire while I get to it.

 

[mainmech48]

This time of year, always a .45 ACP. If punching through layers of heavy clothing is gonna turn my JHP into FN ball, I want it to be a big, heavy FN ball.

In the Spring and Summer, I feel okay about my Star M43 in 9x19 with 124 gr. Gold Dots. It hides more discretely under light clothing than almost any of my .45s, even if it does weight about the same.

 

[denfoote]

Mostly 9mm.
Sometimes 45.

 

[nonsense]

7.62 tok?

dev_null,

what do you carry in that caliber and can you post pics?

 

[Tacoma]

Usually anything I can stuff into a J frame. Mostly 38+P, sometimes .357 or 9mm.

 

[Vern Humphrey]

.45 ACP in a full-size M1911 (currently a Kimber Custom Classic.) I also have a Colt Detective Special that I will occasionally drop into a jacket pocket when going out the door.

 

[JeepDriver]

90% of the time it's a 9x19

Every once and a while I'll carry either a 45ACP, 357 Sig or 38/357 Snubby

 

[Erik Jensen]

I nearly always carry either my Springfield GI or my S&W 642. pretty even split, depending on mood. (sometimes both. )
