Ok, I thought about starting a new thread but this one may do.

Tell me about how you all carry your hardware. I wear boots, jeans and t-shirts mostly. Hard to hide major caliber pistols. In the winter with flannel shirts and jackets it is not so much of a problem.

What methods and holsters do you all prefer?

Thanks

I live way out in the middle of nowhere. When I am just walking around the yard or hiking, I carry a .22 auto in my back pocket. It is a Hungarian copy of the Walther PPK. I like it better because it is more reliable and just as accurate.

When I drive my pickup, there is a Winchester defender pump above my head in a carrier which all but conceals it.

In the car, I keep an old CZ 52 and two spare mags on the seat covered by a cloth. If there are passnegers I sometimes just put it in the glove box.

During the winter while wearing a coat, I keep a Glock model 17 or sometimes a Browning HP in a Galco shoulder holster. During the Summer, I sometimes wear a Domke photo vest. I keep another Hungarian PPK copy in .380 in a pocket with a heavy piece of canvas to break up the outline. I keep two spare mags and around 25 rounds of ammo in a pocket on the other side to balance things. Sometimes I switch the .380 out for a Glock 19 but it is a little heavy.

Warnings posted !

If I'm packing as a civilian with a revolver I'll use a Kramer or Andy Artoonian IWB thumbreak horsehide holster.

If my Glock 21 I'll carry it chamber empty just in cavalry or mex mode.

If a 1911A1, I'll carry in condition one with a Thumbreak IWB from the same holster makers.

In my vehicle I have a rotomolded holster mount from fobus that I modified to hold a custom kydex holster for my 329PD 44 Mag, it's attached to my center console and adjusted so if I shift gears too fast it can be an ND incident.....It has a small black cover made from a black bandana my girl friday made for me to keep prying eyes of taller vehicles or those parked next to me from seeing it. The 44 Mag and a M1A in the slideout in the back of my FJ80 Lancruiser rounds out my truck guns.

An ankle rig w/ a SW317 .22 snub and 50 spare rounds tops off my carry on my person.
