I don’t hardly see any at the range when I go is why I’m asking . If you use a revolver as your concealed carry please let me know what type / caliber , etc.

OK, so anybody that knows me knows I'm about as "old school" as it gets. That manifests itself on my hip most days as a 1911. When the wheelgun bug bites (as it did last Friday), I carry a 4" S&W Model 25 in .45 Colt loaded with Winchester 225 grain bonded JHPs.

Ruger LCRx in 38. 2" barrel, pocket holster. Nice to have rat shot the first shot in case coming across a snake in the summer.

The majority of the time, I carry a Sig p938. However, I have my Grandfather's S&W J-frame model 42 in .38 that he carried when he was Chief of Police in Pawhuska. On occasion, I carry his old revolver.

I used to carry a 638, it was my favorite gun to carry. I carried full power full wadcutter loads. they were 148 grain and left the snubby barrel faster than 147s left the barrel in my full size beretta 92. I since moved on after the capacity bug bit me, but have considered going back to the 638 more than once. Also that little gun had an unbelievably good SA trigger, very crisp and under 2 pounds

Had a 642 for about a week. I decided it was too big for an ankle/pocket gun and didn’t carry enough ammo to be a waistline gun.


The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

Whenever the wife and I travel together, I carry a Ruger LCRX .38, because she carries a Ruger LCR .38 every day.

I figure it's an advantage to have two guns she's familiar with... just in case.

I also carry the 3" models as woods guns... I have them in .22 LR, .22 WMR, .38 and .357

I carry a Smith Model 442 in a Kramer pocket holster when I am going to be indoors in a small room environment. The recent Texas church shooting convinced me to start carrying my Cajunized CZ P07 (with expanded mags) every place else. I put another grip on the 442 which makes it much easier to hold and shoot but still fits in my pocket. (Hogue # 60000)

It's not what you say, or think, that counts. It is what you DO!

When I travel to Kalifornia to visit my eldest son, I carry an LCR38 in the free states. Then I have to lock it up in Yuma.

Carried an LCR-357 in a pocket sticky holster with cargo shorts/pants before switching to 9mm. We bought two in 2011 and my wife still carries hers - and she is darned good with it. I have nothing but good to say about these after trying the trigger on other similar S&W revolvers. It is snappy, but I am surprised at how well it absorbs the recoil of full house loads.

A Democracy is when two wolves and a lamb vote on the dinner menu. That is why this country was specifically not designed as a Democracy. We are a Constitutional Republic.

Mostly carry S&W .40 but, about 25-30% of the time carry my S&W model 69 .44 magnum. It doesn't seem overly bulky or heavy to me when carrying.
