With heavier firearms or long barrel 357/.41/44 all mags, I wear a holster and belt.

 

With a 1911-A1 in 45 or a modern clone in 400 Corbon; I use a web belt and Army surplus holster. Between the weight of the pistol and a few mags; it needs its own belt or my pants slide down. :D

FN 509 Midsize. Great Glock 19-size pistol. I'll be ordering the holster for it this week.

I carry a Glock 19 with the NIB-X coated slide and a Glock 42. Once the Glock 43 hits my store I'll be picking one of those up as well.

I have thought about one also but not until they work out all the bugs......   In the mean time maybe an XD-E in .45acp

I picked up the P365 last Friday and took it to the range last night. Great little pistol. Awesome trigger, recoil isn't terrible for being a subcompact pistol (even ran some +P through it). Though shooting the VP9 after felt like shooting a 22. :lol:

 

 

No pics or anything but I'm real happy with it. Bought a IWB holster from Mitch Rosen (local company to boot!) and it carries amazingly.

Picked up a P365 a few weeks ago. Good gun may start to carry it. . Either a ported M&P Shield in 9 or 45 or a Glock 29 10mm.

Kimber Crimson Carry Ultra two tone, M&P 40C, Sig P238 SS depending on my mood, my destination or what I’m wearing... I sometimes carry a S&W 686+ in a shoulder holster on my Harley...

I've been carrying the M2.0 4" compact 9mm daily all year, I don't think there are any bugs to work out, it's almost identical to the M1.0 that's been pretty much bullet proof... I also have an M&P 1.0 4.25" , Shield 9mm, M&P 2.0 45 acp 4.5", M&P .22 compact, Bodyguard 380 acp and an old M36 .38 spl J-frame,  I guess you could say I am a fan of S&W handguns!

Just kidding, I always carry the Glock 42. I installed Tru Glo sights and slapped a grip extension on, and it’s pretty much exactly what I want in a CCW. I personally can’t get comfortable toting around much more than the little .380...especially in the summer...so if it’s between that or nothing, I’ll take it. It just has to get me out to the truck...

The 509 now has a bunch of upgrades from Apex. New trigger, extractor and striker. It's become my EDC for the bulk of the time. The 365 is still a great discrete carry gun.

In Canada so nothing, as we have to willingly allow the meth-heads to kill us here or we go to jail. Now they want to take away all our rifles now too because of "AR15's used in mass shootings in the USA". So any of you second amendment guys feel free to start dropping these psychopaths before they become an anti-gun media's wet dream. 

 

Don't ever let those rights go.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.

      Rattle in the rear!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      Just wanted to say thank you for posting this. Years later, your thread is still helping Silverado owners.   I bought my 2025 Silverado 1500 in January 2025, and I've had what feels like the exact same rattle since day one. After reading your findings, I believe my truck has the same issue with the cable carrier contacting the rear sliding window. To be honest, I had pretty much given up on pursuing the issue. It wasn't until I recently drove another brand's pickup that I realized just how quiet their cabin was—and how noisy mine has been all along. On my truck, the rattle happens on almost any paved road, gets even worse on rougher pavement, and I can even hear it during braking and acceleration.   I actually referenced your thread when submitting my case to GM, hoping they'll recognize this as a recurring issue instead of treating it as an isolated incident. The reason I reached out to GM first is because my dealership told me they would need to keep the truck for at least two days just to diagnose the problem. I was concerned that even after two days, they still might not be able to identify the source of the rattle before giving the truck back to me. I had also asked a few dealerships about this issue during previous service visits, but none of them seemed to know what was causing it or had a solution. That's why I decided to contact GM directly first, hoping they might already have an official repair procedure or guidance for this issue.   I also hope GM eventually comes up with an official fix for this problem. I have a feeling there are many Silverado owners experiencing the same rattle, but most either choose to live with it or simply don't know what the cause is.   Really appreciate you taking the time to document your diagnosis. Your post is still making a difference years later.

      Do you have access to BP fuels? Some stations have Silver 91 E-0 priced the same as their 93 E-10.  There is a local Marathon with 90 alky free for $6 a gallon but I go down the road to BP for $5-ish. They also have a 100 E-0 but that stuff is $10 a pop.
