What is your EDC?

 Glock 29SF or Keltec PF9, both in JS Kydex IWB. I am trading/selling the G29 for a Gen 4 G20. I do "OK" with the G29SF, but I like the Gen 4 grip on the 20 and the longer sight radius. The KelTec PF9 is a nifty little pistol, and one in which I use a lot in dress clothes,etc. I like the fact it is small, yet is 9mm. I am having trouble getting it to be 100% reliable with Corbon DPX 115, had a buff and puff job done to it and need to try them again; so far, PowerBall works swell. I had a wrist joint replaced in my strong hand, and 1911s make my hand swell when shot a lot, so I switched to Glocks and do better. However, the little kelTec PF9 is pretty snappy, so it may get swapped for a G26 later. The G29 has been a handful for my wrist, but still not painful. It is brutal with the factory recoil assembly, the DPM helps a lot. I have never cottoned to the G20 full grip nor even the SF, but the Gen 4 has enough subtle differences I prefer it. I carried 1911 Govt for decades, so full size doesn't bother me, unless my ministerial duties conflict, which is often. That's why I like the JS IWB; it goes on and comes off easy and is very thin, yet surprisingly comfortable. I do love the 10mm though, powerfull yet flat shooting. It was a revelation to me, replaced my M1 carbine trunk gun!

Well, I was carrying the G-29 and still do from time to time...however I mostly carry the G-30 in the JS IWB stuffed with Remington Golden Sabers.
Both are capable guns and I prefer the potent 10mm, but if "God Forbid" I am involved in a shoot out, I would hate to have LEO's take and hold the pistol for evidence, or in the case of when you may have to leave your firearm in your vehicle at a location, I'd hate to have my 10mm gun stolen or any for that matter.  I used to carry the S&W1006, but seeing how they don't make them any more, I only use it on occasions for range work or hunting purposes.

I had my vehicle broken into, not once but twice that morning, a few years back (hotel stay while taking classes for FD), in the process of checking out and breakfast with some local law enforcement, they broke in and stole some items, but missed the firearms.  Lucky!

 I sold a project rifle and paid cash for my G20 Gen4. I "was" going to trade my 29Sf in on it, but had another thought ( ta daa) I rented a G30 at a local range and shot it some, liked it very much. I figured I would trade the 29Sf for either a G30 Gen 4 or a Gen 3 G36. When I went to pick up the G20, lo and behold, in the used gun case was a G30 Gen 4. I was able to swing a swap even across for it! It really fits my hand better than the 29SF, just subtle differences, but enough help. I have it over at my smiths to install a set of Ameriglo Pro operator night sights and a 3.5# connector. It fits my JS kydex holster perfectly ( saved me $65)  I had some Corbon DPX +P 185 DPX on hand ( I really like them) but sent off for some Federal 230 HST ( non +P) to try. My smith had already put on a set of Ameriglos/ 3,5# connector on my G20. I am getting pretty jazzed, ha

Sounds awesome :-)

I go back and forth between my Gen4 G20 and G29... The G20 carries better and feels best in my hand but I do carry the G29 a fair amount of the time. I guess I'm trying to even things out LOL

In iether case, the Gen4s feel a lot better in my hands than the Gen3 SF models... they feel just a bit more rounded to me and I love the texture. The new mag release is a real improvement too IMO.

Congrats on yours! ;-)

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who carries a Glock 20SF.
