Default Re: Spin-off Thread - Why do you carry what you carry?

Alpo, Is that a front pants pocket or a hip pocket? I didn't carry concealed for 70 yrs. and am becoming some what frustrated in finding a satisfactory weapon. The LCP I just sold satisfied the weight factor but my fingers are too long (I'm 6'3" & 215#) and I could just not get the trigger finger rapidly into the trigger guard after drawing from the holster. Practice, practice, peractice did not solve the problem so I got rid of the gun. I carried the LCP in a Fobus paddle which I liked or a Nemisis pocket but never got comfortable with the pocket carry but didn't do it much. Right now I am looking for the next carry weapon and looking hard at the Ruger LCR. I have a S&W 649-2 that I have carried and will probably always keep but the weight is too much for it to become that regular carry weapon I want to obtain. I agree with Hellix that switching carry guns is not such a good idea.
