If “recently” is a reference to the mass shootings, in Texas and Ohio, causing me to change anything, well, no. I recently ordered a couple of lefty holsters, as a general change from my right hand being the “strong” hand, as my right thumb, hand, wrist, and shoulder are not aging as well as my corresponding left-side body parts.
I am actually left-handed, but “right-armed,” and functionally ambidextrous with most handguns. I decided to carry on my right hip, for several tactical and utilitarian reasons, when I started a police academy, in 1983, which was well before Texas had a license-to-carry system in place. I retired from the PD in early 2018, which freed my handgun choices from being something that was compatible with my somewhat limited duty pistol choices, and experimented with several types of handguns. This experimentation was hampered by a left rotator cuff injury, which did not really heal until relatively recently. So, personal factors have driven my schedule of changes in handguns.
I am still sorting-out which grips I want to use on my new-to-me Speed Six and S&W 64-2 snub-guns, but the ultimate “winner” of my experimentation appears to be that medium-frame and medium-large-frame .38 Special/.357 Magnum revolvers have, probably, returned to being my default choices for daily carry. If I have to face an active, mass-homicidal person, and I am going to engage with a handgun, well, I shoot a GP100, or comparable S&W DA revolver, especially if it has high-profile sights, more consistently* better than any other handgun, especially when I factor both of my hands into the equation. (Glocks are my “lefty” autos; the 1911 is my “righty” auto, and long-stroke DA is my “ambidextrous” preference, whether revolver or auto.)
DA revolvers were my mandated 24/7 handguns from March 1984 to March 1995, and then, my default “primary” handgun choice from late 1985 to 1991, 1993 to 1997, and remained my off-the-clock personal carry choice, much of the time, until 2017, when water damaged my favored S&W Model 19-5 during Harvey. That prompted a period of mostly carrying Glocks, during personal time.
So, my recent change, to mostly Ruger revolvers, is a return to normal, which is also a return to my best long-range accuracy potential, which I see as important to STOPPING a killer. The limited ammunition capacity is not a concern, because if I carry one gun, I usually carry another, and, because, “trading shots” with a killer is no way to win a fight, regardless of what handgun I am using.
The second gun is not only a “back-up” weapon, but also because I am accustomed to reflexively reaching for 0300, in an emergency, and I want something to be there, at 0300, even when “primary” is now left-side. The last time I routinely wore a revolver on each side was 2002-2006, when, during personal time, it was either a pair of SP101 fiveguns, or a 4” medium-sized revolver and a 2.25” or 3” SP101. (In 2006, I worked a non-railed P229 into the mix, nicely compatible with the bulkier, railed P229R I had adopted as a duty pistol in 2004.)
*I shoot a 1911 as well as a GP100 or suitably-configured S&W sixgun, on a good day. Not all days are good, which favors the long-stroke DA revolver.
