Default Re: Second Gun?

Often, yes. Primary is either a S&W J frame loaded with .38+P or a Kahr K9 with 9mm+P; secondary is either the Kahr K9 or a Kahr PM9; The handy thing about the Kahr/Kahr combination is that I can carry a couple of extra 7 round K9 magazines and they also fit the PM9, though they stick out the bottom a bit. My main thinking in carrying more than one is that it's very likely in any situation, that one hand will be better able to get to a gun than the other, resulting in a faster and more flexible response. Other possible primaries will be a Sig 226 DAK or a larger S&W revolver. As just about everybody else in the known universe has pointed out, it depends on where I expect to be and how I'm dressed.
