Well I am getting that itch to get a new pistol for the collection and I wanted to know whats your favorite sidearm to carry.

I have a Walther PPS and a Glock 19, I like both alot and am looking to add to the stable any thoughts and suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance for your comments

I heard they were having problems with the LCP, good size for summer carry but was told not that accurate and a good kick to it. Have you found that to be true at all ?

Can't say enough good things about my Springfield XD sub-compact. I carry the .40 and the wife carries the same in 9mm.

I have carried a Sig .40 and a Beretta 9mm (both for past jobs) and I really do love the Springfield for everyday carry.

I do want to buy a Beretta when I get the money though.

For OC my CZ-82 12+1 9x18

For CC my Taurus Pt111 MilPro SS 12+1 9x19

The CZ is such a sweet shooter I can overlap shots at 35 yards..

The Taurus while not quite as easy to shoot is very nice for when CC is the best plan as it has a nice flat profile!

Holy mother, that Hi-Point is ugly, you weren't kidding! :D
I must say though, that if it goes bang every time, and is relatively accurate, then that's all that matters.

The only one I have. Mainly got it because of its $139 price tag.

My Hi Point C-9 9mm.
(Not actually mine but even this guy has the bicycle inner tube grip like me)!

For OC I usually carry my Dan Wesson Commander Bobtail (nice choice there sevenplusone).

For CC I usually carry either my Kahr CW40 or my Bersa .380.

If the front pockets of my pants are large enough I'll usually have a Kel-Tec P-32 riding in there also. If the pockets are toosmall I'll put an extra mag on my belt for whatever I'm carrying that day.
