    Bw s256 turbo with 3 in glass pack dumped pre axle raptor liner bed and top rails and fenderflares and rocker panels. Hunter side steps. Plasti-dipped upper fenders and emblems. satin black spray paint here and there inside and out. 5100's set to 1.75" up front . C channel front bumper. Maxxis bighorn 255/85/16
    Played around with my edc a bit. Flared a wing out and a "stop" for lack of a better term. Its not quite a clip it just keeps the holster from rolling down to the right due to the over all weight.
    [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]
    My clip prints more than my handle now haha. Im liking it right now. Its not polished cuz i wasnt sure how it would work and i would rather have the "stop" had been at least a j clip but im happy where this is headed

    Just picked up a new Sig P365 on Friday. Put 200 rounds through it on Saturday. So far, I am really liking it! This will be my new EDC after I put another 4-600 rounds through it.

    The problem I have is the leather is stretching where the belt loop is, I like the blackhawk design, it just sticks out a little too much sometimes.

    A crappy leather holster maybe, but a good one no. Yet another case of you get what you pay for.

    Why go with a light grain high speed round vs a typical +p hollowpoint design?

    I really like how light the rounds are. Makes the magazines feel like they are empty. Plus, you should see how they perform.

    This ammo is an interesting concept but thinking from a physics standpoint I would rather have more mass even if its traveling slower. This concepts has been working for 45 ACP for over 100 years. I would be interested to see the ft/lbs of energy transferred to the target from the Liberty rounds at 2000 fps compared to that of a 124gr +P JHP at 1100- 1200 fps. Regardless of the results I'd rather not get shot by either.

    Oh and to the OP my EDC rotates between a Glock 19, a Glock 43, or a S&W M&P Shield 9 depending on what I am wearing/feel like carrying. All of which are loaded with 124gr Federal HSTs.

    As of now a Zero Tolerance 0452CF (knife) and sometimes Sabre pepper gel since that doesn't have as bad of legal repercussions if I have to use it. When I turn 21 I'll get my CCW and ill do an intrafamilial transfer on my Glock 26 with Hornady critical defense 115gr or 124gr Fedral HSTs. I gave my dad the cash to buy it for me for now.

    I've shot a couple of those and can't believe how well i group them with a <2" barrel but man they are a little snappy with that small grip and no weight. I mean i know they arent meant for shooting 100+ rounds through at the range at a time haha but it just suprised me i guess with standard .38s

    I have pretty big hands and have shot it probably a 100 times and shoot it every couple months to stay very comfortable with it. I am looking for a decent ankle holster had a good place to put it in my Tacoma. Right now I get it under a hat on the front seat when driving and that really is not to bad. On thing about any firearm is to remain very comfortable with it. I get my wife out as often as possible so she remains not only comfortable but confidant. Lots of people get a firearm, basic instruction and never follow up.

    My dad has one of those, but the older version with the exposed hammer chambered in .357. Man they have a little bite to em! The first time I shot my dad's it had .357 +P's in it and I actually got bit by the hammer. Made me bleed a little lol. I guess they don't make the one my dad has any more because I was looking for one and the guys at the gun shop said they only come in .38 with the exposed hammer now. I ended up going with an auto for higher capacity though.

    Edit: Have you considered the Crimson Trace laser sight grips? That would probably be beneficial for you and your wife. My dad's only cost him around $150 or so if I remember correctly. The nice thing is that it still fits in every holster we've tried and it comes on when you squeeze the grip. He zeroed his at 7 yards.

    I have had a couple of 357's and I do not like the bite either. I am much more comfortable shooting my 44 model 29 Smith

    Not sure if this is exactly what you are looking for, but smith still offers an Airweight .357 with exposed hammer. They also have internal hammer or shrouded hammer options.

    Yeah that looks pretty nice. I'm not sure if that's on Commiefornia's list of approved handguns or not, I'll have to check
