Among others, I own an SR40C, an M&P9C and a Beretta Nano - my favorite carry pistol is:

The Beretta Nano
9mm using mostly Speer Gold Dot 124gr +P
In a Remora 4ART in my pocket or IWB depending on how I'm dressed
Because it's accurate, easily concealable, but still powerful, it is very left-hand friendly and I'm comfortable with it.

Currently:
S&W 642 pocket or IWB
Now that the weather is getting cooler I'm carrying a Springfield loaded model 1911 in a Galco Miami classic rig.

I have a miami classic rig for a beretta 92 as well, but I don't have the adjustments just right yet, its a lot harder to hide than the 1911.

I've been carrying my Springfield Range Officer in an IWB Cozy Partner. The holster works really well.

If not that, it's a LCR in my pocket.

Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but looking at the Desantis cocked and locked, it looks like it is an Outside the waistband holster....is there some modification to allow for it to be worn IWB or are there different models of the cocked and locked (an IWB and OWB)?

I have a DeSantis Intruder and love the level of comfort, which is why I checked out the cocked and locked when you mentioned it........

I find that becase how easy it is to slip in my pocket that I am much appt to carry often vs say a glock 19 in an IWB holster.

Fit like a glove for me and I knew I would always carry it.
Always goes bang and fires all the ammo I feed it.

Looks pretty nice. I like DeSantis stuff, though I don't generally carry IWB and don't use thumb breaks. Does it have a sweat liner (probably not the right term) but a piece of leather that rides between the gun and you? This is really nice especially if love handles like to ride into the hammer!

Make: Glock
Model: 27
Caliber: .40
Where you carry it: IWB
Why you chose that specific firearm: Its an extremely reliable sub-compact with the punch of a .40


I will start carrying my SR9c on occasion

Ruger SR1911 great gun very easy for me to shoot well thin enough to carry IWB comfortably........and a big ole chunk of .45 cal lead. I carry IWB Galco is my holster choice. I carried a glock 30 before it didn't really appeal to me, grip to thick. Just wasn't comfortable to wear IWB because of the thickness of the weapon. Wasn't comfortable to shoot. I've always love ruger firearms and would carry my other ruger occasionally if I had a good concealment holster for it. OWB for sure with that beast superblackhawk .44 mag.
