This is a discussion on What's your carry weapon? within the CCW forums, part of the Firearm Forum category; What do you carry and why. I'm looking for your primary carry piece.

why--years back, i had to sell off a large portion of my personal firearms. The one handgun i kept was this ruger due to reliability, durability, accuracy, and caliber. I'd make the same choice again today if i had to.
My "six" .357mag is still a work in progress--- but its future looks good!

Colt Commander, 45 ACP, high ride belt mounted hip holster. Accurate, reliable, quick out of the holster, light trigger pull from the first to the last shot.
Ruger SP 101, .357 Mag, 5 o'clock using Blade Tech Ultra-Concealment Holster (IWB). My primary CCW ammo is Buffalo Bore .38 +P LSWHP...GC (Lead Semi-Wadcutter Hollow Point Gas Check).
I picked this gun over others due to it's rugged construction and reliability. I prefer a revolver over a semi-auto.

I know the conventional wisdom is to pick one gun and carry it all the time, but I just can't do it. I have several guns I routinely carry, including:
Kimber Ultra Carry 1911 .45
Ruger P89 9mm
Ruger P90 .45
SP101 .38
NAA Mini Revolver .22 Mag
It depends on the situation and how I feel that day. For instance, today I carried both my Kimber and the Mini Revolver. Tomorrow I might carry something else. And when I go woods bumming I always carry a single action or double action revolver. It just "feels" right!

Glock 27, 40cal
I carry it IWB in either a Kydex holster (when in shorts or windpants) or in a Hume 715 for jeans.
Glock dependability. I like Ruger, but love Glock. But if I decide to get a revolver, it'll be an SP101.
Make: Ruger
Model: GP100 Compact
Caliber: .357 Magnum
Where you carry it: 2030 HRS IWB
Why you chose that specific firearm: Dependable, reliable, handles the .357 cartridge well and is easier to carry than my 4" N-Frame 45 ACP.
I also carry three knives, two reloads per gun and a second gun. This is for off duty carry. Added to the mix is a Surefire E2E, my credentials, my wallet with "plastic" and a can of Copenhagen.
