What EDC FA do you carry and Why?

**StuartDB** · 28-09-2017, 17:00

Okay splitting from the "decisions" Fred, I'd like to gain some info on what weapons you chose for EDC concealed and why? The why is probably the most important factor for me. If you could please post the brand, cal. And how many mags etc. And why you chose that specific FA for EDC I would greatly appreciate it. I am not sure if this has been discussed before so please bear with me ;)

Glock 19 Gen 4
9mmp
Decided on the glock because its reliable and spared are available at every second gunshop.
Have 5 mags for now , when funds allow will buy more.

Glock 26.

Chose Glock because they're known for reliability, great availability of parts/accesories and Bernhard Agencies offer the best support.

Chose the 26 because its small but still can take the larger Glock mags unlike a single stack G43. (important for me, as I can only afford a single gun for both carry and home defense, so I can carry with the 10rd mag and use the 15/17rd mag for home defense)

9mmP because that's the best caliber for EDC - great performance, cheap range ammo and cheap SD ammo.

Currently carry just one spare 15rd mag, because that's the most comfortable for me in summer.
Might change it to a 17rd one since they're similar in size.

G19 based on how it felt in my hands.

PO 7 Duty. The grip is perfect and 9 mm P can be bought at any gunshop.

Orginal EDC, Sig p250. Reason I did not know any better and listened to salesman!

Current
EDC working days. G43 + 2x extended mags. Main reason the g43 is ultra-concealable. I work in construction and need that.
EDC weekends and at night, CZ p01 + 1mag. Main reason I sport with a CZ SP01 and i wanted to stick to the CZ platform. P01 is also fitted with a docter optic

Cal all 9mm, reason cost of ammo and higher round count

G19. Small enough to conceal and big enough to shoot well.

Glock 17 Gen 4

- Reliable / availability of spares and many upgrades. I see it as a AR15 in handguns.
- compact ( no bulky exterior parts that can snag on clothing when carrying concealed.
- feeling in my hands.

At first the trigger pull is the most challenging part to get used to. But with dry-fire practice it becomes easier as time goes by.

I carry 1 spare on me, 2 in vehicle, 4 in everyday bag.

G17, Gen3 with X300 Ultra.

Because I shoot it better than my G26 and I can put a real light with a DG switch on it.

Glock because they were the new hotness back in 1998 and they work well, lots of parts available, cheap mags.

9mm because why not? It works, it is cheap. I can carry a lot of them.
