I carried a DW .357 in a shoulder holster, back in the 70's.
Didn't have a "legitimate need" for a CPL by 1980, cause I made a career change.
Then, around 1988 I found myself visiting crime scenes and designing alarm and video systems in Detroit. I just retired from that occupation, about a year ago. Will renew my CPL in about 2 yrs.
These are the pistols (pictured) that are in my very flexible carry routine.
I prefer the CBOB, in the little Galco or DeSantis (wich is ocupied by my C3 in this picture). Depends on my mood, the weather, where I'm going, etc.
Also in the line-up you will find my P220R in a Minotaur holster (no, those grips did not come with it), M&P 9mm w/thumb safety in Galco leather, Kahr C9 dressed in Don Hume, and my CZ 85 Combat 9mm is wearing it's Concealco holster.
