All those nice 1911s are probably just crying inside your safe! "Pick me! Pick me! Dangit!" :p
 
Until very recently, was of course my P95 with 147 grn Hydrashoks. Having got the P97 now tho .. have been toting that and filled with Rem UMC 230 grn JHP L45AP. Not my first choice but they do feed well and look much like Hydrashoks but without the internal ''spike''.

Will look for some fed ammo when i can. So this gives me 7+1 and spare mag of 7.

Soon as hotter tho .. gonna have to be back to M87 snub and 110 grn Hydrashoks.
 
Charles, interesting little skinning knife ya got there. Where did you find it?

It looks like some kind of silat style knife.

Hey...as long as the bad guy THINKS they're hydrashoks then you should be ok. ;)

Nice carry ensemble. I do wish the polymer Kahrs fit my hand a little better...the thin grip feels like a popsicle stick to me. I've been seriously looking at an MK9, though.

Here's my daily carry, a customized Springfield Loaded Stainless. It rides in a Galco Summer Comfort. Carry load is the Remington Golden Saber 185gr. +P load.

Daily carry items not in the picture are the Bianchi double mag carrier for the weak side, the Kel-Tec P32 in the UM pocket holster, and the Chris Reeve Sebenza folder.

The four I carry primarily are: Glock 23, Springfield XD357 (with Insight Tech M3) and two Colts. The knives are both MOD's. One is a James Keating Hornet and the other is a Duane Dieter CQDII.

Howdy,

Here are my two primary carry weapons:

Primary-HK USP45 Compact, Speer Gold Dot 230 grain, Milt Sparks IWB Holster

Backup-S&W 342PD, Magsafe Defender, Kramer Pocket Holster

I carry one spare USP mag and two speed strips of 5 rounds, plus Punch II M-3 OC, a cell phone, and a Spyderco knife.

I am sometimes known to carry a Kel-Tec P32 instead of the 342, a USP40 Compact, a Kahr K40, or my duty weapon, a S&W 6946.

Daily Carry: Para Ordnance C7.45 LDA Companion, same size as an Officers Model. Loaded with 8 rounds of Remington Golden Saber 185 grain +P's in .45 ACP and carried in Galco Deep Cover, tuckable IWB holster. Another 7 rounds of same in McCormick Match Grade mag carried in Gerber Multi-tool pouch on left side at front. Cold Steel folding Tanto in right front pocket, in case I need to finish them off silently.
 
swingcatt- The bottom one looks like an Emerson Fred Perrin designed "La Griffe". Its a great little blade IMHO, obviously Charles digs his.
 
When I can carry. I carry either a Sig P225, Kahr K9, or a Ruger SP101. I always try to carry some type of knife. Currently it is some type of Benchmade automatic. Of course since I recently got a P32 it is almost always with me.
 
My carry depends on mode of dress. Right now its a Colt Mustang Pocketlite with Hydrashocks and a Benchmade 940.
When I carry a big gun its usually a fullsize 1911. either my SW1911 or my Colt Combat Elite depending on environment conditions.
The SW goes boating and out on super hot sweaty days.
The Colt goes everywhere else.

I tend to agree. Though it is comfortable enough to put 50 to 100 rounds of +P Gold Dots through in a short sitting, I think it would be even more confortable with an additional 1-2mm thickness, arched, on each side of the grip. I don't think it's so much the dimensions as much as the total flatness.

Dainel: I really want to be able to carry a 1911. I did for some time, a few different full five-inchers and a Commander but they were all just too heavy or too... I don't, too something! Of course, maybe I'm just too lazy! ;)

Before too long, I want to get a Springfield Compact and have a small bit of work done and see how I like that - lighter weight and smaller in every dimension. Maybe a slight carry bevel, front checkering, new MSH, smooth grips and a trigger job if needed. As much as I love the 1911, I almost feel like a traitor not carrying one but this one works out for me pretty well.
 
Kahr PM9 with Speer Gold Dot +P 124 gr. 6+1 and extra 7 rnd mag along with a Spyderco Endura or Delica knife.
