EDC Lineup 🔫

Shield Plus 4”
M&P Carry Comp
M&P compact
PDP Compact
P229 Legion SAO

I’ll be replacing the M&P Compact with a 24 Staccato C. The slimness makes it easy to carry. The PDP and P229 are chunky boys.
 
Just did my CCW renewal shoot
P365 ?L? Whatever the longer grip is
Wilson EDC X9
HK45c

Was hoping the HK CC9 would be out in time, but guess not.

CC9 might be the only gun at this point that'll make me say "ok fine just one more". I haven't heard when it's coming.
 
Supposedly HK is just waiting for approval by CA. There’s already a sku # for the CA version.
 
So I have an S&W M&P Shield. It's one of my CCW pistols. My only complaint with the Shield is the magazine dissconnect. How does the CC9 compare? Asking because the CC9 is on my radar.
 
HK P2000SK 9mm
Glock 26
Dan Wesson PM7 .45 ACP

DW 1911 is a bit much for CCW/EDC, but that's all I have now and SFPD got a 3-firearm limit so I figured I'd rather fill them. I'll likely get a Glock 30SF at some point (before the ban...) and swap it with the DW upon the permit renewal. Although, I must admit there is something about being able to carry a full size 1911 in .45 ACP...
 
Well, I am lucky. I live north of Sacramento. I only have 7. Glocks 43-26-19 & 38, NAA 22mag-Sig 365 and Ruger LCP Max. My main carry was G43, Sig P238 and NAA 22 mag. Sold P238 too heavy for pocket carry and wearing a vest in the summer was not comfortable and to conspicuous. So, it will be the NAA and LCP Max with the 365 and 43 thrown in now and then.

P365 XXLegion still reigns supreme for me. Can’t beat size/weight/performance.
 
Gotta check my card for this one...

M&P Shield (the one I almost always carry)
Kimber Micro9
Glock 23
 
Glock 48 MOS
S&W M&P9 2.0 (3.6 Inch)
Ruger GP100 (4 Inch)

Going to be renewing next month and contemplating changing it to up
Sig Sauer P365X Legion
S&W M&P10 2.0 (4 Inch)
S&W 340PD (Maybe)

Any suggestions?

I have a 340PD, it's on my CCW. It gets the most carry time, because I can put it in my pocket. That compared to my other two, a S&W M&P Shield 9, and a full-size 1911, cal 45. Those two are IWB carry.

I assume you are contemplating replacing the GP100, with the 340PD. I like my 340PD because it's light weight, pocketable, and no snag. Sure you give up one round to the Ruger, and a shorter sight radius.
 
Try the Ruger LGR in .327 Federal Magnum. Almost the stopping power of .357, 1/3 less recoil, and 6 shots instead of 5. You can also shoot anything from .32 S&W to .32 H&R Mag to ....
 
Glock 42. i don't really see the point in having a bunch of different guns to carry on different days. the Glock works so that's what i carry.
 
Shield with 507 red dot, Springfield EMP. EMP is a wonder. Small, tight, not heavy. 1911 trigger/design. Close as I can afford for a good small 1911.
