In the winter for everyday carry I carry a Taurus PT145. In the summer,or if I just want to, I carry a Kel Tec PF9, for deep concealment.
If Im going to pick someone up Im not sure about, sometimes Ill carry one of the above, as always, and strap on my Glock 17 with a couple of high cap mags.
I always carry. If you see me, figger Im armed.

On the "Judge"
Checked with several gun shops local.... Dancers in Petersburg said they had 3 come in that morning and all were gone... they got 11 last week and sold them all in 1 day... they do not know how many they will get but there is a waiting list... the same with 2 other stores... this gun is flying off shelves everywhere.... just local info from central Virginia... price is between $5 and $600 depending on blue or stainless.
It is not classified as a 'shotgun' because it has a 'rifled' barrel.... wonder what effect that has on my 'rifled' barrel I have on my 870?... They outlawed rifles in Lunenburg county for a while back in the 90's... overturned later... but during that ban... I put a rifled barrel on my 870 along with a scope and it was almost as accurate as my .308 out to about 125 yards...
The "Judge" seems to be a really great weapon... wonder how long it will remain "LEGAL"?

You cant go wrong with a Glock. You cant go wrong with a 45 ACP. You got two bases covered. Good job.
The Judge is a nice weapon. I think it would be fantastic for home defense or open carry sometimes. However, Ive handled and shot a few. I dont see them as practical for ccw....

I just bring my Mother in Law, she was a Marine (for real!)
The fugitives see her mean arse face and give up as long as they don't have to sit next to her.

XD .45 GAP Tactical 5'' is what I carry. Cant conceal it very well but it sure as hell is a force to be reckoned with and let me tell you, if I saw that beast pointing at me, I wouldnt want to challenge it. When Im suited up I carry it in my cross draw vest, if casual/plain clothes work then its holstered in the holster it came with on my side.
I love this gun. Best I have ever owned. Accurate, reliable and most importantly of all, very safe. No misfires at all, and I dont have to worry about it blowing my head off should I drop it...
