I’m pleased to see so many revolvers chosen. Sometimes simpler is good.

I much prefer revolvers to DA/SA autos. I do love my 1911, but I feel more at home with my revolvers. I posted the 1917 to be a smartass as it's a big gun -- my Ruger SP101 is much more easily carried concealed. But with the right holster and clothes, the 1917 can work.

I love my Kimber .45 (had it since 1997), but like the simplicity of a revolver. Also, I’m old and lazy, and prefer carrying a light weight firearm.

For me it's also about the trigger. The feel of the DA trigger dong the work and returning to the same position is reassuring.

Yea, so...

I told you it was not much to look at....

Love me some great "old, fat and slow", but do they have any cartridges optimized for 2" barrels?

I have two Kimber Ultras - not seen that ammo yet for those, everything seems to be 230GR hardball for 5" barrel.

*not shown the Ultra Carry two-tone .45acp - hard to keep up!

For a while I carried a 4 inch 686 IWB. It was a lot like carrying a 1911. It was definitely as big as I would go though. :D

The last gun I edc’d was an s&w 642 but that was a decade ago. I loved having that in a hoody pocket. I don’t carry a gun anymore.

It's nothing to look at - but it presents very quickly -

Handgun - Ruger LCR 38 Special +p
Modifications - Hogue Piranha Grip - G10
Holster - Safariland Model 25 Pocket Holster
Ammunition - Speer Gold Dot Short Barrel Personal Protection 38 Special +P
Pants - Duluth Trading Duluthflex Firehose Carpenter's Pants

And if your garment has not been considered, you didn't think deeply enough.
I hope you all have carry insurance.

What made you decide to switch from your 1911 styles (Kimber and Colt .380) to the Ruger revolver?
 
Ease of carry, speed of presentation.

I still love the 1911s, but the revolver is the choice day in and day out nowadays.

Been carrying my Sig P220 Carry alot and occasionally my HK P30 during colder weather ... but as it's warming up I switch more between my HK VP9 .... a Beretta Cheetah .380 ... a S&W Shield 9mm ... and a S&W 637 PC J-Frame ...

I tried to snap a few of what most of what I've carried over the last few months ... damn rain keeps me from getting good pics outdoors ...
