What firearm is everyone carrying in an IWB holster or similar?

Well, the OP might get at some kind of answer by looking at some previous INGO polls.

Most people on INGO (the largest group) seem to carry IWB on the strong side [1].

Also, most people on INGO seem to carry a semi-auto rather than a revolver. I'll say at least 75%ish. (I won't bother to cite the polls on this.)

Furthermore, the largest group of people also report carrying an auto of at least medium (to full) size with a 4" barrel. [2]

Put that all together and I think you'll find that carrying at least a medium-size semiauto (ex. Glock 19 or similar) in an IWB holster is a very popular option.

Eyeballing the responses to this thread so far seems to confirm this once again.

Thanks for the links. I was more interested in the size of handgun everyone was carrying and the barrel length to me is less of a factory than grip size and thickness. A nice three dimensional poll or plot would work great ;-)

If have a rainy day w/o billable hours, should compile the answers and post.

Was wondering what everyone is carrying now days when something more than a pocket carry is possible? (i.e. IWB holster under a square cut polo jersey, jacket, in a vest etc.)

1: A "large" pocket pistol (i.e. Kahr or S&W J Frame)


2: A subcompact full size pistol, such as an officer's model 1911 or the Sphinx SDP Subcompact is looking interesting.


3: A compact full size pistol, such as a Glock 19, USP Compact, Commander etc.


4: A full size pistol such as 1911, USP, M9, FNX, CZ75 etc.

Thanks

I made a liar out of my myself earlier in this thread. I never got a compact 1911 for carry. I opted instead to get a CompTac MTAC holster for my CZ P-01 and man I couldn't be happier with my EDC set up.

G19 in a Desantis Nylon IWB, or a Kimber(1911) Tactical Law Enforcement Custom II, in a knock off Crossbreed style. I found a place that sells jeans for men with a flex waistband, allows a little room for any holster/firearm IWB. Also use a nylon BDU belt in either black or coyote brown. Stiff belt to clip/ or snap strap. If you remove the holster you just tighten the Bdu belt a bit. Works great.
Good luck.

Really like my Springfield lightweight Champion 1911 45 acp for IWB carry,I wear my PA 63 for more discreet carry on occasion though.

640-1 by Smith and Wesson....Always...

 

[indiucky]

Always one of the 1911s, usually one of the 4" on compact frame.
Currently, this gun in this holster.

Meanwhile, in Heaven someone tries to sit in an empty seat to the right of John Moses Browning...John Moses says, "No, that seat is being held for someone." "Who?" says the interloper..."Jetgirl" replies Browning..."That girl knows what's what..."

I carry a Sig P226 in a Crossbreed-like holster made by DTrap here on INGO. Its a sweet setup.

M&P9C Compact, appendix carry IWB or M&P9 FS Strong Side carry IWB. I don't have any desire for pocket carry at this time.

HK USP 45 or HK USP 40....depending on my activities for the day...the 40 is a little smaller....
