I am not sure what the poll means so I will explain. I started out with a full size 1911 AMT Hardballer in 45 a.c.p. Now, several years later , that has evolved into an Airweight S&W J-frame in 38 special.
I have discovered if it isn't small , lightweight and easy to carry in a pocket, it tends to get left behind....and rule #1 is you got to have the gun ON YOU or it will not do any good. The Airlight goes with me , easily.
I am one of those people who just can't fit a big gun , in an inside the waistband holster with my abundant waistline, It hurts.
