What's Your EDC Caliber?

[Plinkuh]

.32 ACP Big enuf for me.

What's your weapon system of choice for that caliber?

 

[tmkr]

what do I carry?

I carry a sig 238,(.380)I'm not a very big guy and cant conceal anything very big.I always figured a good hit from a .380 is better than a miss with a .44. so practice,practice

 

[ArcadiaGP]

Lately .45 (Colt 1911 100yr anniversary edition)
Also option of .40, H&K USPc

 

[canav844]

.40S&W in a G27

.40 and 9mm have exentsive history in real world shootouts, and every state police agency in the US is either carrying .40S&W or .45 GAP; so if it goes to court, the round is well documented as a protection round. I've also seen some published FBI reports on the terminal ballistics that had autopsy assessment, X-rays and photos demonstrating the perfomance of the round. I can shoot it accurately inside 25 yards, or self defense distances, so there is no reason there to change caliber for accuracy; and I am able to conceal the G27 well so it is also no reason to consider changing platforms for concealabilty.

I carry either a Sig C3 or a Kimber Crimson Carry Ultra both in .45. For pocket carry places / days, I carry a Kahr MK9.

10mm FTMFW!

 

[sparkyfender]

LOTS of variety in this thread. That's good.......

 

[acarnahan]

Kel-tec PF9 w/ Crossbreed supertuck if I don't have layers of cloths.
Glock 26 with a Remora for normal cloths
Sometimes I'll go with the M&P 40c in the same remora.

Depends on what I'm wearing as to what I think I can conceal best.

Sig P238 with the 7 round extended mag

The Tomcat 3032 loaded with Federal 65gr Hydra-Shok and one extra mag.

 

[Amishman44]

I wish the best caliber out there was included....the .357 mag revolver! Ruger's SP101, in 357 magnum, is a fantastic personal defense gun!

Probably should've made the .38 a .38/.357 option instead.

 

[jsunjones]

Glock 26 here. I've seen a lot of other options that look nice too, but this serves my needs pretty well

 

[REM299]

Glock 23 SW 40 or Sig 229 sw 40

+1. I want a 1911 in .357 magnum.

 

[gunfreak6989]

great pole idea. 9mm will probably win because the majority of people question the effectiveness of the .380. also 9mm guns are generally avalible in a smaller slimmer sizes which is better for edc.

 

[WebHobbit]

Currently:

SP101 .357 Magnum 3 inch loaded with Golden Saber 125 gr MV Magnums

holster - Galco FLETCH (made for the 2 & 1/4 so the barrel hangs out a little)

+ 2 Bianchi speed strips with 5 Sabers in each

Will probably soon switch to:


XDM compact 9mm loaded with Federal 124 grain +ps HST (Spring/Summer)

XDM 4.5 .40 S&W loaded with Speer Gold Dot 165 grain (Fall/Winter)

I also carry a Surefire 6p I've modded with an Oveready McClicky butt switch and a Malkoff 260 lumen drop in LED.

 

[T-Mann]

.357 (will occasionally carry 9x19, but 85% of the time it is .357)

 

[clt46910]

+1. I want a 1911 in .357 magnum.

Look into a .38 Super.

 

[iChokePeople]

Look into a .38 Super.

I have a .38 super, thanks.
