For the guys that concealed carry every day... what's your main caliber? I'm 9x18 mac in a p64 but i hike with .38 spec(i need an airweight .357 for hiking) Dont be afraid to talk about your girth.... It is better to have a .22 when you need it than to leave your .45 at home after all. |

.45 ACP, 9mm, .38 Super, .22LR. I didn't make a poll choice since you only allowed one. Depends on what I'm wearing and where I'm going. |

I'm with you on that, my 1911 even falls into rotation, especially since i'm only comfortable with a coat carry with anything reasonably sized(i cant CC well in the summer, i print terribly with anything). I just kinda wanted to poll the average, most used caliber. |

When I was allowed to carry it was .40 S&W. Unfortunately I am currently separated from my firearms by almost 5,000 miles. |

I just kinda wanted to poll the average, most used caliber. I think it's more what & how you carry than what caliber. I mean I hear people say they can't carry a G26 & I'm like really? I know several people who carry a full size FN or 1911 everyday. I stopped worrying about printing long ago as none of the sheeple notice with all the cell phones & complete lack of attention span. I switch from strong side OWB & IWB in a good holster & belt combo in jeans to appendix carry. Also what am I doing, could you imagine digging a ditch, squatting down working all day with appendix carry poking you the whole time? Driving with strong side for distances can also be uncomfortable. I change it up often. I have gorilla sized hands & I'm a meaty dude but my gut isn't so big I cant appendix carry. Big guns are nicer to shoot small guns are nicer to carry You gotta play the genetic cards we're dealt & carry accordingly. Just my .02 |

LCP .380 most of the times now, unless we travel or hike, then it’s G19/5. |

This used to be a more robust discussion due to limit on availability in size and caliber. History. Back some 20-30 years ago the availability of firearms to come in almost any size were limited to manufacture and design limits of the day. Meaning one could not get a small micro in a 9mm or 45 unless it was a single barrel design. But now with modern CNC machining and modern designs on ammo and magazines too (capacity). Historically the European designs of .32 and .380 was not very popular a generation or more in the US. But with all that said. 9mm is the clear and easy choice for availability in almost any size and of course modern ballistics. When I started shooting some 30+ years ago it was .45 and then 40/357Sig and now it’s 9mm I still have some 380 and even a .32 and 25 but for carry it’s clearly 9mm. Lethality Capacity Shootability |
