Poll: What caliber do you carry most often for self defense?

[smitty12b]

.45 Kimber Tac Pro II

 

[1/2 shot]

.45 acp in a Springfield 1911 Mil-Spec or an XD45 Service Model.

 

[PwrCruz]

10mm in either my Glock 20 or 29.

 

[colt45er]

XDM in .40

16+1 180gr Speer Gold Dot with a spare 16 rounds in the off pocket

Kel-Tec P3AT
6+1 Speer Gold Dot

 

[2ADMNLOVER]

Fed. 230 Hydra-Shok JHP 10+1 in a PT145 .

Big bullets = big holes , big holes = faster blood loss , blood loss hopefully = faster threat neutralization .

I don't pretend I could get 1 shot kills .

 

[mconley]

Glock 23, 155gr gold dot ammo

Awww joe, how could you not put an option for 22 short

45 acp has been my main carry since I started carrying, and will continue to be. Currently in my springfield 1911 mil spec, soon in my V12. Although I do want to get a small 9mm as a bug. Prob a keltec pf9 or something similar.

 

[BloodEclipse]

.45ACP 230 grain Remington Golden Saber JHP in my XD45C.

 

[ATM]

XD .45 service 13+1 Federal HST 230 gr.

 

[hotfarmboy1]

oh yeah, as for the ammo I carry. Currently my most carried load is the federal 230 gr HST, but I do normally keep a couple mags worth of the 185 gr +p hst loads on hand, and my 2 10 rd mags are currently loaded with 230 gr gold dots.

9x18 Magsafe. In a Makarov or a CZ 82. 7.62x25 has a tendency to deafen and burn things. Works really well on retreating Soviet soldiers.

 

[USMC_0311]

9mm in Glock 19

Same here for me.

I"ve carried a 1911-style for over 40 years, and see no benefit to changing now. If I went to a smaller/lighter handgun, I'd walk funny...er......

.45ACP .230gr Hydra Shok

 

[No Time to Shoot]

Smith & Wesson M&P .40c with 180gr Hornady TAP rounds

 

[buzz815]

Kimber ultra carry 11 in 45ACP. Winchester Black Talons
