FNX 45 Tactical in a KT Mech holster. You can conceal a lot under a suit.

Glock 17 on duty. Glock 19 and Shield 9 off duty. I plan on carrying my VP9 once I get a new holster for it.

I've found the round grip profile of the VP9 as being conducive to good carry comfort.

I wanted to want a G34 pretty badly. I think it and the 41are excellent pistols...but the grip, man. May end up having to build a Glock "ghost gun."

Nice. The half lug 4" N frames are a thing of beauty, and shoot beautifully as well.

Like I said, you can hide a lot under a suit. It is bulky though, and not that comfortable to carry. I recently bought an EMP, and once I'm sure it will run reliably I expect I'll carry it much more often.

Carried the Beretta 92 Vertec today in an Alien Gear IWB 3.0 with a spare 18rnd mag in a Safariland paddle mag pouch. A little on the heavy side but comfortable.

Started out carrying a Glock 19. It was my first handgun. After about 8 months, I got a P220 for a steal and figured I'd try carrying it just to see. It was honestly more comfortable than the Glock. After I while I decided I wanted more capacity but didn't want a Glock. So now the largest I regularly carry is my M11A1.

That's dedication.

I've got this feller, but only use it to go to/from the range without drama.

Biggest would be a "full size"1911. I think.

With the right holster even I can tuck it away at 5' 8" 175 stones.
Went to a full size M&P in 9mm for a few years.......and now its become a Shield in 9mm as of a week ago.

I finally have a much better carry gun, but it's not any smaller than what I carried for the last 3 years or so (but it is thinner and lighter). Before that it was a G20sf.

I would guess that if you weigh 2450 pounds you can probably conceal whatever you want.

I appendix carry a Glock 26 TLR-6 with a 19 magazine and X-Grip spacer regularly. The main reason I carry the 26 over the 19 I also have, is the slide and barrel length is perfect for appendix carry for my body type, as I can fully bend at the waist without any discomfort. The 19 is doable, but just not as comfortable and limits certain everyday body movements for me personally. The back strap "hump" of the 26 also feels like it is in the perfect position for my hands, where as the 19 its too low on the backstrap.

I carry large guns all the time. Hard to say which is "biggest". I carry a Glock 34 (probable contender), several 1911's, Smith Wesson M&P .45 and 9 mm L, Browning Hi Power, Cz 75, Glock 17, Beretta 92......Lots of big guns out there.

I have a 34 with a Grip Reduction that is my primary carry gun these days. I mix it up every once in awhile but it's the gun I shoot the most....Try a reduction, whole different gun.

I've though about it. The squared off front strap still kills it for me.

When it comes to grip shape and angle, Glock is about the most imperfect for me.

Glock 19 most days. Glock 20 when going into the woods or when I can wear a jacket.

Glock 20 does see carry time here and there.

The Shield 9mm is the biggest gun I carry regularly. Before that it was the M&P9C, and I still carry that, but far from regularly. After I found out how comfortable the Shield was, I started carry a Ruger LCP more often than the M&P9C. Small guns make a lot of sense when you're not out hunting down trouble (not a cop), and don't want everyone to know you're carrying.

People who carry 1911's and full size guns are fine in my book, but that is just not for me, because it is waaaaay too uncomfortable. The weight alone drags my pants down and requires me to wear a belt much tighter than I'd prefer.

Posted: 5/27/2017 9:10:14 PM EDT

Its usually my full size M&P 9 in homemade holster, but some days I will carry my Shield. Always OWB for both.

I carried my Roland Special for a couple of days. Occasionally I'll carry it but it's very big. I made a video about it.

1911 or Glock 34, though lately the 34 has been relegated to classes and competition.

Posted: 6/1/2017 10:12:51 PM EDT

Biggest recently would have to be this:

HK USP Tactical 45 in a DM Bullard custom rig. Usually I'm carrying a Glock 19, a 1911, or sometimes one of my 2.5" 66's.....

I've carried this brick IWB every day for the past six years.

Posted: 6/3/2017 9:39:31 PM EDT

Glock 20 or S&W 686 4". I kind of cheat and usually carry them in my HPG recon kit bag as I'm usually hiking in mountainous terrain. Otherwise G17 in a Crossbreed Supertuck or G20 in a RCS Phantom.

Posted: 6/30/2017 3:50:25 PM EDT

The biggest I carry is my Colt LW Commander in 45ACP. The biggest handgun that I have is a Ruger Redhawk in 45Colt/45ACP.

G20 as well, but less frequently than the above.

I'm afraid I have been carrying my G 17 with RMR lately. IWB I use the INCOG, OWB a custom from Red Nichols. Red is old and worked as the manager and designer for Bianchi during the early years.
