All the way back 30 years ago, I bought and carried a Ruger p85 which still sits in my gun safe today, but most recently I’ve been carrying one of my sig sauers (226 legion or a p320) and occasionally a smith 638 airweight

 

[Lt Scott 14]

Indiana issue: 1980, Model 10 S&W, 4in bbl, Tapered, Sq Magna Grips. Wifey: same year, state, Beretta 25ACP. Like James Bond. Martini, Shaken, not Stirred.
(close call from 4-12 shift, 3 possible carjackers) Never left home without it! Add: Still have M10! Beretta traded for a M49 Bodyguard J Frame. Same ammo for both.

Indiana, of course. First carry was a Ruger SR22 that I dropped into a coat pocket on my evening walks during the winter. Later moved to a Taurus 709 with an actual holster. Dropped that for a PC Shield which has been my EDC since.

[rhino]

First carry license in 1994, from the great state of Indiana.

My first gun was a Ruger P89DC, but I never carried it. My first carry was a Smith & Wesson Sigma SW40, which changed when it started breaking and then I learned how much better I could shoot with anything that wasn't a Sigma.
