I always have a S&W 340 in my pocket where legal. Five shots .38 +P is not much and a J Frame S&W is not an easy reload for me (disabled veteran). My solution is a NY reload if I go when I think a reload might be a good idea (night, downtown-old town). This is a S&W 3913 9mm in an ankle holster. If I go up into the foothills, I carry a S&W 320PD Heavy Buffalo Bore .44 Special loads.
I enjoy carrying my glock 19 but wind up throwing my lcp in my pocket most the time. Doesn't matter what i'm wearing, I can still comfortably carry the Ruger. **I now carry the "custom LCP" but think i'll be going back to the regular one with standard sights. The improved sights like to snag.
Use to be 357 sp101 30+ years. tried the1911 but didn't like pulling my pants up all the time. G26 now with a keltec 32 in my pocket for when the belt carry is inappropriate.
25-5 45 colt or 22, 9 shot when in the woods.
I was told the G26 (gen4) points and shoots as well as the G17 with a longer sight radius. Doubtful,
not a Glock fan, and having none other to compare with, I bought it anyway from a member @ NFWA who had excellently, applied textured grip material to it. View attachment 297
Hopeful the extra rounds of the double stack and lighter weight would overcome any short comings, I found none except maybe the trigger guard could of been slightly larger. I have large hands so it fills them well for a good grip and without wiggling to find the comfort zone. The simple stock sights are as good as it gets for my particular poor vision, instantly comes into view.View attachment 296
All in all, I was impressed, and consistently hit what I aim at 25 yards away. It is a keeper for me.
Who da thought?
The self made holster has been serving me well except for a little leather squeak which I need to address.

G19 and S&W 649. Recently started carrying the S&W in a Galco ankle glove, tried the clip draw and I see it only being used with sweats around the house
649 is a backup yes. I see it in use for grappling since I wont have a slide issue with the revolver when I push the gun into the assailant.
That's why I wanted a covered hammer, although I wont be using single action in a defense scenario, I like the options. My biggest beef is the weight, the gun can slap my leg when I walk cause of the steel construction haha.
try .357 on that haha. my thumb was cut on my first shoot with it haha
learned the change my grip really quickNo thanks! I can only imagine how unpleasant that is.
