I have a few I carry but usually if I can cover a holster, it's a Kahr PM45. If I have to pocket carry, it's the PM45's smaller cousin, a PM9.

For quite a few years, I've carried a C9 locked in my glove compartment. I would never do that with one of my SIG's, HK's, Kimbers, or Kahrs. The gun has been 100%, is fairly accurate, is almost indestructible, and was cheap. I pull it out every two or three months to clean and reload it, but...

I bought one of those several years ago, but I think I only used it twice. I'm pretty skinny at 5' 11 and 160, but it just didn't feel right. Maybe it was just trying to get the gun out of there. To clarify a bit I mentioned the PM9 and LCP only because they are my only pocket guns and we were...

For me it's a P220 or an HK USP 40. I use both for HD as they are a bit larger than I like to carry and they have great NS's, but they do remind me that I can shoot pretty well with the proper equipment. Another would be my FS Loaded Springfield lightweight 1911.

My son gave me one for Christmas a year ago. I've kept it because it was a gift. It's certainly not a lot of fun to shoot and the trigger is terrible, but I shot it enough to determine that it is reliable. If possible, I much prefer to carry my PM9 even though it's larger and heavier, but...

I have had seven Kahrs in the last five years, and current have four, PM9, CW40, CW45, and MK40. Two were stolen and one traded on another Kahr. So far, I have not had any failures with any of the seven even during break in, but I do throughly prep all my pistols before firing. Although the CW...

I have a nickel P220 that is 16 years old and still almost mint. It has 4500 to 5000 rounds through it, and the only concessions I make are, don't carry it in a polymer holster, and clean the barrel away from the slide and frame.

Thirteen of my fourteen Semi's have never failed - that includes SIGs, HKs, Kahrs, S&Ws, and a Kimber, Springfield and STI. The fourteenth is being sent to Detonics Monday to correct an ejection issue. The pistol is a 31 year old MkVI in almost perfect condition except for the problem. I really...

A Kahr CM45, and I'll be all over it.

I'm actually surprised by the number of people who have been affected by firearm violence. I'm 67 years old, but other than the two years I spent in Southeast Asia in the late sixties, violence by guns has never entered my life. I will admit though, that had I been home when my house was...

That's a tough one. If I had to pin it down it would have to be one of the two in the middle of the picture, the HK 45C or the SIG P220.

I am quite fond of the 3r gen S&W's. I had three, but, unfortunately, lost them in a burglary in February. I am partial to the 45 ACP and was lucky enough to find these two 2006 build Smiths NIB in a small gun store in MA in March. They are a CS45 and a 457S.

A mint 1980 build Detonics Combat Master last Friday.

Three somebodies attempted to break into my house Monday. A neighbor behind me saw them and called the President of the HOA, [not the police] who lives across the street. He called the police, grabbed his P220, went to the back of my house, and held all three at gunpoint until the police...

Nope. My 2011 build C3 Has an Aluminum frame, as does the Ultra, Platinum, and others. You're right about the fit though.
