What handgun do you carry?

OK, I'll admit that I am a bigot. If the gun isn't a 1911 pattern pistol then I don't like it. I've got more than my wife knows about, but most of them share some very similar traits, most are compact 1911s. A bunch of them are Detonic Combat Masters in various calibers multipe 45s, plus a 9mm and even more rare 38 Super. A couple more are Paras in 9mm and 45.

These two are with me frequently, both are lightweight, one is a single stack 9mm with the LDA trigger, the other is a double stack 45. Both are smaller and lighter than my Colt Officers Model.

Para Ordnance Carry 9, customized at the Para shop for me:


Para Ordnance Warthog, aftermarket customized:


So what do you carry?

Udated/Edited to add pictures.

90% of the time, I carry:
A 1911 (Kimber TLE or mild custom Colt) or,
Browning HiPower (Ted Yost custom).

The rest of the time:
HK P7M8
Usually when I need something a little smaller, but sometmes just because I like it.

Pics:
The Colt 1911 and P7:


The BHP


Kimber (the top one):


And there is always the Kahr PM9 Covert in the pocket.

Hmmm, depends on what I'm doing and where I'm going that day. If it's just around town or bummin around the house, it's a Kel-Tec P32 in a Wild Bill pocket holster. If I go to the "big city" I usually carry a 442 Smith in warm weather or a Kahr PM9. When cold weather comes, I switch to my Colt Commander. But I've carried everything from a NAA .22 mini-revolver to a Mod 29 Smith over the years.....
