Also, for "carry rig" check out the VersaCarry IWB. I purchased my first one a few months ago. Pretty much all I use these days. It weighs nothing and is absolutely the thinnest, concealable device (it's not really a holster) I've tried. You can find them by googling VersaCarry. I think I've ened up with 5 of them now for various guns.
Maybe I'll eventually become more comfortable but I don't like the idea of have the trigger unguarded in my pants
Just did my first Wally walk!
this is what i think as well, your already compromising with a pistol so you should carry the one you shoot the best, for me its a big steel pistol like the 1911 or the browning hi power.You've made your choice and, I think, a good one. But some of these comments really make me shake my head. My comment is mostly for the "smaller is better" carry crowd. Every handgun is a compromise and an IWB carry presents its own challenges. But if you took all of these guns to the range which one would you shoot the best? I bet it isn't that tiny one that you love to carry so much. I think in all of the discussion we sometimes lose the point of carry. If you had four or five guns to choose from to defend your life, how important would your comfort be? My EDC is fairly big and definitely heavy. But it shoots like a dream and I do very well with it. I do have a Smith snubby that I am getting better with. When I feel confident with it I will stick it in my pocket to run up to the store or other short trips. But for now the EDC goes where I go. Not that I really enjoy lugging it around. Its that I enjoy having the gun I shoot best with me all the time. When your life is measured in seconds an your pucker factor is at maximum clamp do you want that little gun in your hand or your favorite that when you draw seems to go right on target? For me, YMMV, if I ever get into that situation I want the one I don't ever really have to think about it is just dead on every time. There are days where I carry for an extended period of time and I am glad when I finally get home and can take it off. But I never consider changing because I carry to protect my life and I will take the confidence over the comfort. Good luck with carrying and shoot your EDC every chance you get. You should never go to the range and not shoot your EDC at least a few rounds. The more familiar you are with it the better it will serve you when it counts.
