What .45 do you carry and how...

[bselzer]

compact .45

i myself am interested in a .45, the only thing i can tell you is if you are planning on carrying it all day, make sure to get a compact. .45 ammo is not light and if you need more than seven shots you should probably be packing a shotgun any way.

Taurus PT1911 in a Dakota Defender. The Defender is a leather IWB holster and is tuckable. Very comfortable for me.

 

[in625shooter]

S&W 625 with a 3" barrel. Because I love revolvers! they always go bang

Sig P220 in a Galco Fletch OWB.

I guess if you're frail or infirm, maybe....

My normal load-out is 25 rounds of 230gr (3@8 rd mags, 1 in the chamber). It isn't that bad. I get more irritated by too many coins in my pocket b

I know I will never sell it. It is one nice wheelgun I also have a 5" 625 and a M&P 45 auto but I just like my wheelies

H&K USP Fullsize with Speer Gold Dot mankillers

 

[haldir]

Springfield 1911A1 MilSpec. I got the Springfield leather owb holster that comes on the coupon.

 

[Ford Truck]

I usually wear an original, 90 year old Smith & Wesson Model of 1917 sporting Packies in an el cheapo Uncle Mike's vertical shoulder holster. In warm weather, I don't bother to conceal it. In cold weather, my jacket or coat cover it.

 

[Spot Me 2]

I carry a taurus 24/7 pro/ shoulder holster.

 

[shooting .44]

para oridnance warthog double stack mag 10 rounds 3 inch barrel no recoil

 

[AverageMidwest]

STI Spartan (full size 1911 clone with some goodies), Milt Sparks Summer Special 2 (IWB). Still have the Don Hume IWB I bought for 35, but spending the money for the SS2 was well worth it. Pulls the piece in tighter and a LOT more comfortable than the Hume. Though for everyday carry I'd rather have a Commander-sized piece.

For some reason, I've been enamored with Argentine arms... mine right now is a Ballester Molina. Would like to grab a couple more variants they had before I call it done, too.

Thanks to all that have replyed. I really think i am going to buy an XD or XDm

I like the idea of carry on my right side (being left handed) cross carry. It just feels natural to me.

Now i just need the extra few hundred to get the one i want. Trying not to dive in and just buy the next thing that comes along it's hard!!!

A 1911 most of the time but sometimes like to switch it up to the glock .40
