Sometimes I carry a Les Baer P2 9mm and a Rohrbaugh 9mm Stealth as a bug.

CCW for 11 years. Mostly carried a HK P7M8 during those years, but for the last 6 months I've been carrying a Citadel CS officer's sized 1911 in a Milt Sparks SS2 holster.

Don't carry a BUG.

Gotta put together a picture of my carry kit :(

Roverron 11-19-2012 06:46 PM

I've had my CCW for 17 yrs, this is my typical daily wear. My NH T-3

Yep had once since 2001...and I currently have the civilian model and the all so powerful law enforcement model good in any state...so nice!

douglas_knott 11-19-2012 07:55 PM

I have had mine for 6+ years Utah and Missouri. I currently carry my Dan Wesson Razorback 10mm in a Nick Mathews iwb holster and a AG custom gunleather belt. Sometimes carry my kel tec P3AT as a bug. I keep my Razorback loaded with 180 grain Hornady xtp's.

MajO 11-19-2012 08:16 PM

Since you asked, Clyde: I had a CCW in Virginia, until I moved back to Pennsylvania in 2005. I have had a Pennsylvania Resident License since. The last two years, I have also had Florida, Virginia and Utah Non Resident permits.:flagwave:

When I carry, it is usually my Colt Night Commander (with tactical package) in a Milt Sparks Summer Special Holster. :D

Best wishes to all.

Riverpigusmc 11-19-2012 08:41 PM

Damn, Ron, that pistol is cuter than three speckled pups!

ABC3 11-19-2012 08:45 PM

I've carried for more than 40 yr's (I think). I've owned and carried just about all of them.

The last 10 yr's or so a Les Baer OWB or Ed Brown Kobra Carry.

Too many to list (my wife may get on the computer) and I wouldn't want that.

Why, thank you sir!

Zilmo 11-19-2012 10:31 PM

I have had my permit for 36 years.

RevM 11-19-2012 11:33 PM

Had mine in NH when I was 18 ... that expired about the time I moved to CT in 1986 after college. I did not get a permit or carry for the 22 years I was in CT, then got my SC resident permit and a NH out-of-state permit in early 2009.

Most of the time I carry my DW Guardian 45 in a Kelley Gun Leather C-Flex. It is so slim, comfortable, and easy to carry I hardly need the diminutive Keltec PF-9 anymore.

titanse05 11-20-2012 07:47 AM

I have had my CCW permit since December of 2008 and have carried my CBOB everyday since February 2009. My leather holster and belt is C5. Will try and get a updated picture asap.

herefordman1 11-20-2012 08:00 AM

My wife and I got ours when we were in VA. We lived in a place off the road w/no close neighbors and home crashing was becoming the "IN" thing in our area. They expire in 2014 and we'll renew here in OH. I carry all the time even around the farm. You never know who'll come down the driveway.

Snipersnest 11-20-2012 11:43 AM

I've had my LTC since the mid sixties, and my MG license since 1978. I also have my LEOSA which allows me to carry anywhere in the U.S. including its possessions and territories. So there :p

NAMVET72 11-20-2012 01:05 PM

I have had my CCW Permit since 1971, Ohio, Va, Fla, Utah

http://i547.photobucket.com/albums/h...DSCF0359-1.jpg


The grips were given to a friend for a Karma and the bottom knife was also given as a Karma...............


It is my DW 09 Marksman and carry a SOG Twitch XL...............

Clyde

Roverron 11-20-2012 03:15 PM

Very nice Chief!

MPrimo 11-20-2012 07:52 PM

I have had it for around 15 years. My primary CCW is a DW CCO. I also carry a J Frame Titanium Airweight, an M&P 9C, a Kahr PM9 and a Kahr P380 depending on weather and clothing. I really love the CCO. Pics in a bit if my batteries hold out in the camera!

AutoMag 11-21-2012 02:32 PM

I have had one for close to 30 years!

When I first got one I actually had to go to court in front of a judge to get it approved.

Roverron 11-21-2012 03:41 PM

Very nice set

Snipersnest 11-21-2012 04:57 PM

John, the grips in picture number two are pretty! Man you're an old booger aren't you! :eek:

Razorwire 11-21-2012 05:30 PM

Concealed carry since 1987. Here are two of the current batch:

Yes I am!!! That is Clyde playing games again!!!:D:D

I am really 85 as I had originally posted!!! Clyde, I have a few of my boys on the lookout for you on opening day of deer season!!!!!:D

I think Cappi made those grips for me Herb!!!

zukinut 11-21-2012 06:21 PM

I'm fairly new to the game and only been carrying a couple years now. Started out with a Ruger LCP, then my 1911 in a crossbreed and have since gone to a G19 in a crossbreed.

If I feel the need I'll carry my wife's 738 as a BUG, actually need to pick another one up for my myself or another Ruger 380 like I had.

Brandana 11-21-2012 07:57 PM

CCW for five years and just received my renewal. Started with a LCP and CZ compact, but recently graduated to a DW ECO 45. Being from Floriduh I will probably still carry my LCP in the summer and when wearing shorts and t-shirts (most of the time) and the ECO in the cooler months. Have a new Garrett Silent Thunder which will probably work in the hotter months. My wife has been liking my LCP so there may be a 9mm pocket pistol soon.

Dred 11-21-2012 08:54 PM

CCW since July 2012 - somebody hasta be new.

Primary rig is vbob in Silent Thunder IWB on one of Lane's 1.5" belts. Sometimes add fancy Magholder Magazine Holder; sometimes carry in any of 3 alternative holsters including my cotep iwb

Secondary is Sig P938. Waiting on a Silent Thunder Solo, but carrying in a cheapo universal.

I need to break out the camera soon. Funny that 4 months of carry have already seen 5 holsters with a 6th on the way and a 7th high up on the list (a solo for the vbob if the 938 solo meets expectations.

TBerger27 11-22-2012 08:01 AM

I have been a ccw holder since january 2011. My daily carry carry weapon is a DW guardian 9mm... I alternate a browning hi power and FN FNX9 as well. All great guns.

Feathermerchant 11-22-2012 09:04 AM

Since 2006, I promised myself I would never bluff again after a run in with bad guys. I carry a Colt CCO .45 in Milt Sparks IWB, or Gun Tottin' Mama's purse, or thigh holster.

GoldenVolt 11-22-2012 09:19 AM

I've been carrying for 3 years now. I'm not sure why I waited so long to get a ccw permit. When I carry it's usually my Ultra CDP II.http://www.cotep.org/forum/picture.p...&pictureid=530

Long time CCH
 
Hi,

I started in 1973 with a FOID card in Illinois (not carry, but at least I could own a pistol...)

In 1980s got my CC License in New York.

LFI from Masaad Ayoob in 1988. I passed this course using my Dan Wesson Model 15 from a complete pistol-pac. In our end of course shoot-off, I missed beating Mas by one point!

In 1996 got my CCH Permit in North Carolina.

In 2011 became a NC CCH Instructor.

I've carried wherever it's been legal, and like it here in North Carolina!

thigh holster.....hmmmmmmmmm...

Hi, Mary :D

DUBYA.R 12-16-2012 04:34 PM

I carried a DW .357 in a shoulder holster, back in the 70's.
Didn't have a "legitimate need" for a CPL by 1980, cause I made a career change.
Then, around 1988 I found myself visiting crime scenes and designing alarm and video systems in Detroit. I just retired from that occupation, about a year ago. Will renew my CPL in about 2 yrs.
These are the pistols (pictured) that are in my very flexible carry routine.
I prefer the CBOB, in the little Galco or DeSantis (wich is ocupied by my C3 in this picture). Depends on my mood, the weather, where I'm going, etc.
Also in the line-up you will find my P220R in a Minotaur holster (no, those grips did not come with it), M&P 9mm w/thumb safety in Galco leather, Kahr C9 dressed in Don Hume, and my CZ 85 Combat 9mm is wearing it's Concealco holster.

Grizzman 12-16-2012 06:09 PM

I've only been carrying for about a year and a half. Primarily it's my CCO in either a Milt Sparks VMII or a Crossbreed SuperTuck.

When I need something smaller, I use a Sig P238 in either an RKBA or DeSantis Nemesis pocket holster.

I think I'll take a few new photos of the rigs later this week.

A wise decision Sir.

Jdl2 01-02-2013 05:18 AM

I have two: New York and Florida. 20+ years. Usually carry a DW CCO in VM2. Will admit to G23 in VM2 also. Sig P238 in Super Fly for pocket. Still don't have a camera:)

HUNTERKJL 01-02-2013 06:05 AM

I've had CCW since 2008, Arizona. My normal carry piece is a Kimber Pro Carry CDP II in either a Crossbreed Super Tuck or a Galco Concealable OWB. Have another that may soon replace or alternate with the Kimber, a Springfield Loaded Stainless Champion.
