You don't count. Being armed is part of your work.


And?
I have options at work as well.

Smith and Wesson Shield in 9mm in colder weather, around 90 days. Warmer weather I carry a Kel-Tec P3AT either in a cargo shorts pocket or in Thunderware, probably 60 days. Can’t carry while at work but have another 9mm Shield locked in the truck 24/7/365.

I didn't mean to sound disparaging. I wouldn't count my nephew in this either, as it's also his job to carry pretty much every day.

Sig 365 most days. LC9 pro if dressed light and using a pocket holster. Winter days with lots clothes, a 1911 Commander in 45. If hiking where I may encounter 2 legged or 4 legged vermin, then a big bore revolver in a perfect packing length.

An old no-rail Sig 229 in 40 S&W. If I ain't sitting with my feet up, it's on me. If I am sitting on my ass, it's a foot to my right.

Springfield Champion Operator 1911 in .45 Auto ~ 200 days a year. Mainly in colder weather when I have a coat on that shows the imprinting.
Ruger LCR .38 Special +P ~ 150 days a year....in warmer weather and I am dressed like the slut that I am.
The days I don't carry are pretty much only when I fly somewhere for a few days at a time.

G17; an estimated 183 days. I carried daily, a G17 at least half the time, so 182.5 days, rounded up, to 183. On non-G17 days, I would probably carry one of several revolvers.

As I get older, I have to carry bigger pistols, for orthopedic reasons. The little ones hurt too much to get enough training reps, and, I lose confidence in my accuracy capability. I mothballed my pair of G19 pistols in early 2018, when I retired from the PD, after having last shot them at my October 2017 qual. Shooting a larger G17 does NOT translate to a high level of skill with a G19.

I carried a Glock 17 Gen4 9mm on me about 300 days last year. Another 30-ish days with a Sig P229 9mm. The rest of the time I was on cruise ships or in the hospital.

If I have my pants on I have a sidearm attached.

Have to go with 150 days each a year carrying a Gen4 M21 45 ACP/P226 tac-ops 40 S&W.

The other 65 days for church/bbq's/visits with old veterans on the creek bank camps divided about equal between:

Colt LWC 38 Super
DW 10mm
LB 45 ACP
Fusion Arms bobtail Commander 45 ACP

Glock 19.

When my pants go on, it goes in a Milt Sparks IWB.

Every day, all day.

My Sig P-365 is my "jammie pocket" gun, and is a "NY reload" for my 19

Never know when someone might try to rob me of my toilet paper! (GRIN!)

I don't wear jammies, but I do wear a bathrobe in the AM, before my shower. In that pocket, for many years, always rested a NAA Mini Revolver in a pocket holster. Since things started going sideways in the current situation, I've switched out to an S&W Airweight Bodyguard J-Frame .38 in a pocket holster. Once my pants go on, though, it's the Glock 26, Gen 5, carried IWB, with spare 17 round mag on the off side of my belt.

PS I do the morning routine with my chickens in my bathrobe, so that .38 is a comfort back by the hen house.
