Pistol Picture Thread

My every day carry.

Been running 1911's since the 90's.

Colt Combat Commander 9mm customized to my requirements by Cheating Death Customs.

Since I received it late January, I've put about 4,000 rounds through it while taking and teaching courses, competing, and practicing. Zero stoppages.

You can't beat the proven reliability of the M9 platform. If that's your thing I like Langdon Tactical's twist on the M9, even Beretta's offering of it. Now SA's XD line . . . not so much.
The new XDm Elite models are spectacular. Completely new trigger, new slide serrations, more rounds in the mag. You dint need PRP anymore with these guns.
 
As we get older we finally learn that carrying a handgun on your hip, and tied to your britches on a belt, is just not as fun as it used to be. Drags on your side, pulls at your britches, and just not comfortable at all. We have also learned that it is much nicer wearing a gun in a separate belt, not attached to your britches/Pants, and just below the belt. I can wear a gun all day and all night this way, with not too much issues. Now that we are in lock down, and practicing for the Apacalyspe, walking around the compound I have been wearing such rigs. Oh yes, I have been carrying my beautiful and classy elephant leather rigs, with various fancy 1911s and just feeling "dandy" about it.

This morning I awoke to what must be a nightmare at best. I looked down, and behold I was sporting a G'D'm "Plastic Handgun" in a "Plastic Holster" on a "Plastic/Nylon Belt".......... WTF?????

I Must have awoken to COVID-19 HELL. There can be no other explanation. And the Worst of it........... It was comfortable. It was easy to carry. It was Light. It was Fast to Present! OMG, WTF, I am in Plastic Hell.......

I swear, I better not hear a snicker, a giggle or a snear out of any of you! No finger pointing or mockery of any sort! You are not to breathe a word of this to anyone, or I swear I will take you off my Christmas Card List Permanently! Do not let the fact that I do not send Christmas Cards effect your actions on this matter.

This is Obscene to say the very least................... An abomination of untold proportions.....................

When we bought those guns they were Under $200. We bought several and I ended up with one in 9-40-45. Unbelievable value at that price. @Michael458 weren't they about $180 or something???
One of mine cost me $163.50 OTD. :cool:

Yes, something along those lines when you turned in that rebate. I got the 45 ACP, shown above, and a 9mm at that time. I hate to admit it, but liked the damn things so good I now have 4 more of the 9mm guns, and will one day pick up another 45 ACP to go with the one I have. All the other 9s I have the PSA $249.00 each price with those. Still a bargain.
 
I like two piece belts for carrying OWB all day.

Can carry tons of weight. Including everything for a 3gun stage which can include:
Heavy steel pistol.
3 23 round 9mm mags
1 40 round full AR mag
3 8 round shotshell carriers

Rarely carry that all day, but do carry the pistol and mags all day.

Or, just a Glock in kydex on a decent belt like Fatboy!
