Do you carry a BUG?

[DMK]

Do you carry a backup gun to your primary CCW?

If so, what and how?

 

[Ala Dan]

NAA "Mini" .22 magnum with 1-1/8" barrel.

Sometimes & it's usually a S&W mod 60 or a Beretta Jetfire.

 

[WhoKnowsWho]

Sometimes my BUG is my only firearm. P32. But my Para Carry is getting more and more usage time. And when I carry it, I don't carry the BUG.

 

[aquapong]

I voted never. In my every day affairs I have no reason to expect violence from anyone. If I did have a specific threat I was worried about, I might add a bug to my "kit."

 

[HogRider]

Sometimes. NAA .380 Guardian

 

[Pappy John]

Nah....rarely even carry a reload.

 

[MikeJ]

I never carry a BUG. My two carry guns are a S&W 640 .357 and a NAA Guardian .32 depending on my mode of dress and what I am doing. Mike

No.

 

[Kentucky Rifle]

Well, a lot does depend on where I'm going to be.

Around my house or anywhere close to my neighborhood, I only carry one pistol and one knife. On the other hand, if I have to go downtown, I might be carrying three. (Or even four, if I have the pockets for it. I'd feel better carrying my AR-15 when I go to my gunsmith's place.) I have some pretty nice pocket holsters and "several" pocket pistols to choose from. ~I like my thin little Seecamp in a RJ Hedley "Front Pocket LE" very much. I also enjoy an Airlite Ti, .32 H&R Mag snub in a Galco "Ankle Glove". The ankle glove has turned out to be WAY better than I expected.

Firestorm .380 -- that I'll sometimes carry as my primary if the .45's getting to heavy...

[Preacherman]

Sometimes - usually a .38 snubby or (recently) a Kel-Tec P3-AT.

 

[cordex]

Sometimes.
S&W mod 60 and/or Beretta 21a

If I carry all three, am I carrying a BUG and a BUBUG?

 

[Mastrogiacomo]

If I could carry -- it'd the an auto with the revolver as the back up. Probably a Ruger GP100 3" or SP101 snubbie...depending on what I'm wearing.

At work I carry an AMT Backup .45 in a body armor holster as a backup to my H&K USP .45f.

Off duty I just carry my NRM Colt 1991A1 Government Model.

Always, P-32 on my weak side or j-frame on my strong side complement my primary. I believe "Murphy's Law" is ever present. Why do we feel "naked" driving without a "spare tire." Sorry, in the last 30+ years, I've seen to many machines break not to have back-up. Anyone old enough to remember the "onion field?" One single BUG could have changed the ending of that story.

 

[Okiecruffler]

Occasionally, like any late night downtown outings, I'll carry a Rossi M88 on my weak side hip. Figure it would be quicker than trying to reload my primary.

 

[Kcustom45]

I very rarely carry a BUG, but if I do it is usually a Colt Mustang in .380 or a S&W 60.

 

[RCL]

Only if my sidearm is considered as a backup to my truck gun, when I have one behind the seat (my .30-30 or 12 ga.).

 

[krept]

I voted "never" but wish I had a "not yet" option... just don't have the money for a new piece. gotta get good with what I've got.

cheers

 

[BerettaNut92]

Sometimes drop the P7M8 in left-butt pocket if I'm wearing my Royal Robbins. This is only once or twice a year. Balancing lifestyle, convenience and firepower, a gun with two reloads should be more than enough.

 

[Hot brass]

Never, the only small gun I am lic to carry is a 2 shot, no.

 

[PCRCCW]

MOST of the time! My PCR is my EDC and my KT P11 or Makarov in my left front pocket 95% of the time as my BUGs.

Shoot well.

 

[enfield]

NAA .380 Guardian in a pocket holster.

 

[SapperLeader]

I carry a bug everytime I leave the house. I carry a s&w 642 in a front weak side pocket holster in addition to my main sidearm in a strongside iwb holster. I believe in redundancy, and I dont want a firearm breaking when I need it most.
