What .45 ACP do you conceal carry most often?

Actually it is an old Para Ord LDA that I built, for myself. Re cut the dovetails, added a S&A mag well, safety, match barrel, two piece rod, engine turned hood, refinished, tuned mags that feed empty brass, stabilized Vietnam water buffalo bone engraved grips, engraved grip screws.

Even though my SR1911 Target is my favorite .45 acp., my usual carry is a smaller, lighter, S & W Shield .45.

Glock 30 Gen 4.

Dang ! More than 10 yrs on a Ruger Forum , and nobody voted for a Ruger .

I'll go then . Eventually I'll do some more 1911 , but in recent years , most often P-90 .

1911 Ruger LW Commander

Ruger KP345PR which is a little more manageable for me than a 1911.

I had a KP345 and it was a good pistol. The trigger reach in DA was a little long for me or I would have kept it. A solid design and easy to CC.

Sig Sauer P220 Stainless Elite Carry (.45ACP). I carry a Sig Sauer P229 Legion Compact (9mm) more often. It seems lighter but not by that much.

1911 Commander size

The NONE choice on the poll doesn't make sense to me. This number is taking away from the overall percentage figure and is not related to the question.

Hittman asked the question. AFAIC, he can ask it anyway he chooses. I'm in for a 1911 (usually a Kimber CDP Pro).

SA MOD.2 3.3"
Other NOT on poll, nor is SA

Full size Springfield Armory mil spec (modified over the years)

Beveled magwell,
Big Dot Express Sights,
Straight checkered mainspring housing,
Beavertail Grip Safety + commander hammer,
Palm swell grip panels,
Removed the lanyard ring,
Bought lots of quality mags.

Most often because if it's not my primary it is usually my backup.

I own a Glock 36 and Kimber Pro CDP 2 that I can conceal with a loose fitting shirt.

Springfield Armory Officer's Model, my Ruger SR1911 alloy frame Commander is occasionally carried but is my always bedside gun.

I carry a Smith and Wesson 29 nickel with 3 inch barrel in 44 mgnum. I load with the 180 grain Federal hollowpoint.

Glock 30S. All around good stuff

Don't carry them as much as some others, but my SR1911s surely get due respect (in both .45 and 10mm)

I used to own a 1911 just don't like carrying cocked and locked, so I pack a Glock 21 gen 4 now.

My routine concealed carry is a government model 1911. If I want more capacity, I switch to my FN FNX-45 Tactical.
