Yeah, I know, another "what do you carry" type thread. But, it's Monday, and many folks enjoy reading and commenting on these threads..
If you carry both a primary and BUG....
What is your primary and how is it carried?
What is your BUG and how is it carried?
Do you always carry the BUG?
My primary is a Para PXT SSP .45 in a Galco IWB Royal guard or Galco OWB JIT w/ Galco double mag pouch. The belts are a tan Gould and Goodrich and a black Law Pro.
My alternate primary is a Glock G30 .45 in a Galco IWB RG or a Don Hume OWB
w/ Dillon leather double mag pouch.
For my BUG. I always carry a S&W J frame model 36 in a Safariland pocket holster. I carry my primary at 4'oclock, mag pouches at 8'oclock, cell phone at 10'oclock, and a 4" 'gentlemans folder' clipped on the right pocket. My BUG is being carried in my left pocket. I'm curious as to others strategies on where to carry the BUG. One reason for the left side pocket is that if my right hand gets taken out of commission, there it is for the left hand. Another not so good reason is my pocket knife on the right tends to scratch the grip and interfere with a draw if the BUG is carried on the right.
The only time I don't carry the J frame is if I am not wearing the right type of pants. In other words, jogging shorts, pants w/ no pockets, etc. I've also got a KT P32. But my wife carries that around as her BUG. It runs without a hitch, but I hate the trigger pull on that thing.
Thanks for putting up with my long post. I look forward to everyone's input.
