We have an EDC knife thread so it makes sense to start one for handguns. What is everyone's EDC handgun? Glock 43 here.

Mine will most likely be my Glock 23 or my Kahr MK9 once (if) I get my unrestricted. I would like to add a Springfield Range Officer Champion or Compact to that list.

Glock 43 and a cheapo knife. I hope to upgrade the knife sometime soon. I'm not really a knife person so doing a lot of reading.
There are many like it but that one is mine!

Well, since i dont have unrestricted carry i am always going to do some hiking or other sporting activity.. and when i am, i typically carry a glock 43 with 7+1, and bum with 8 rounds. In winter ill also carry the 19 with 2 of my reduced (10) capacity mags..
Kimber ultra carry 2 and 2 spare mags
Depends on the outfit of the day. Most days, when I am wearing shorts it would be the Springfield XDS 45acp. Pants, I change up between 7 different guns.

Ruger LC9 in a DeSantis SofTuck IWB holster. I'd like a S&W M&P Shield 9mm but this one was a good deal and gets the job done. Trying to decide if I'm going to do a trigger kit and some other upgrades to make it better or just sell it off and get the S&W.

Know anybody that would let you try their's? Do you not particularly like the Ruger or is all the Shield hype tempting you? Unless you dislike the the LC9 "a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush".

Right now I have a kimber solo, but the triggers a bit heavy for my liking. Nice small gun and shoots jhp very well for such a small gun. I'm currently transitioning to a Springfield xd. I carry an extra mag no matter what gun and I carry a Kershaw knife and I'm looking for a flash light.
It varies a little for me but in very recent years I've mainly been carrying a SIG P938 (w/factory laser) more than anything else. I always carried a fairly a big heavy gun (Full size 1911 or CZ-SP01 or K-frame revolver) for so many years that it took me a while to get accustomed to the idea of carrying a small gun. I'm very happy with it now though. It's small and light enough to actually be pretty comfortable, but also has very good sights for a small gun and it's very accurate and has been perfectly reliable thus far.
Now that it's nearing winter though and coats are back in play .. I think I might try to carry something truly silly and huge a few times. Just for fun and because I can..heh
Trench coat and an AR pistol?
