If I ever get a holster in, I'll be carrying a Shield in 9mm. For now, I'm still carrying the M&P full size 9mm.
Picked up a S&W 43c that will be carried when I run year round. Looking at a clip draw for it but have a couple other holsters coming in to try. Ya I know it's just a 22 but 8 little 22 shells still keep it under a pound.

My choices haven�t changed much. My holster gun still remains S&W�s M1911PD (LW Commander) in .45 ACP, and my pocket gun is my S&W 431 J frame. However, I do find myself carrying the Colt�s Cobra over the 431 quite often these days. The Cobra is not appreciably larger (not in any way that actually matters), has a more comfortable grip, and with my work on the action, is as smooth (or slightly more-so) as an out of the box Python.

I carry either a Glock 17, or Glock 22, year round.
I don't have a small handgun, but a Ruger LCR 357 has appeal to me.

Still carrying what I am told. G27 loaded with 155 grain Speer GoldDots. Desantis Mini Scabbard for a holster and I generally use a magazine with a Glock +2 adapter.

Damn......the last couple days have been the hottest yet. I spent part of yesterday, and the better part of today, with a carbine in hand. I did have to switch my Sig for a Glock but was able to dump that [bleep] thing at 1500 and put my 229 back where it belongs. After hours it's still the "same ol' " for me. M&Pc or the old 642 depending on mood. George

I've shot Travis' LCR22, and some time ago Had an SP101 (2.25") 357 Mag, and an S&W 642 38Spl.
Based on my experiences with those, I think I could like an LCR 357.
I'd probably load something in the 158-180gr full wadcutter hardcast, at 900-1000 fps.

Either an H&K P7 PSP in an IWB holster or a Colt Detective Special with hammer shroud in a pocket holster. The H&K really fits my hand well and I have shot it in IDPA matches, and I shot the Colt in a snubby match and finished in the middle of the pack with all the other shooters using K-frame Smiths.

That's exactly what I'm carrying, too, these days, an Airweight Bodyguard, except IWB with Gold Dot 135 grain "Short Barrel" load. ![[Linked Image]](http://i176.photobucket.com/albums/w188/TheRealHawkeye/IMAG0478_zps0b141a77.jpg)
