Personally, I always cringe when someone talks about their CCW "rotation". I firmly believe you should become proficient with one platform and carry it and only it. JMO.

... carry it and only it. JMO.

...Why?

Why not become proficient with more than one?

Not always practical to lug around that 5" 1911.

Hard to conceal in your speedo.

...Why?

Should high stress, self defense situation ever occur, I do not want to have to remember what gun in my "rotation" I am packing. I want my reflexes to take over and get the job done.

btw - I think we have had this conversation before. I pretty much consider a S&W DA J frame and a Glock to be the same platform - DA, point & shoot.

To elaborate a little further, I know some folks who carry a 1911 one day and a SA/DA revolver the next. If they can shoot both in a self defense situation, fine - but I do not want to take the chance. To me, a CCW is like an insurance policy - something I have but hope I never have to use.

Again, JMO - but it's my opinion and I am sticking to it.

I see! I can agree with this, especially with being proficient with anything one carries. I dont believe in limiting oneself.

SIG P220. For light carry I reduce the extra mags I carry by one.

Once upon a time I had a 1911 I carried, a SA/DA Sig, and a DAO SP101. Three completely different platforms.

I now carry either a Glock 19 (most days), KelTec PF-9 (either BUG or primary if concealment with the 19 is an issue), or Ruger *-Six .357.

All of which are DA point and shoot, and have a button to reload.

Same thing I've been carrying for years, SW3913, and SW640ND.
