My usual summer carry is a .357 DAO 5 shot revolver.

Because of this, I try to practice with it a lot. Though I don't get a ton of range time in with it, I do have snap caps, and dry fire every week. In addition, I do shoot it when I hit the range, and will spend more time working with it during the spring/summer (when I'm more likely to carry it over a 1911)

I occasionally, although very rarely, carry a .38 snubby.

My personal standard is that unless what I'm carrying starts with a "4" I consider myself unarmed and adjust my tactics accordingly.

I've shot way more than 300 flawless rounds through my Kahr but it is far from my primary carry piece.

My LCP will be my EDC when I get my plastic (if I ever get it). I have had it only since late May and have already shot at least 400 rounds through it. I believe that if I am going to trust my life and the lives of my children to it, I darn toot'n had better know how it shoots and be proficient with it. I enjoy shooting it more than DH's full size guns. I have 5 different holsters and the CT so I can carry it with whatever I am wearing and have no doubts that I can trust it to protect me.

Went with 2 option, I have a SW642 and LCP as bugs. Have ran alot of rounds threw them but not as much as my other guns. I always run about 20 rounds threw them each range visit when im done with my other shooting. But my 642 hasnt seen a box of +p ammo threw it.

My LCP is a back up, I carry another gun as a primary.

Like many here my .38 is a bug only. I had a .380 but after doing many of the informal water jug tests I switched to the .38 snub. Better penetration with hollow points when you use the right ammo. Trade offs are less rounds and more recoil but its a bug and not my primary so I am not really worried about that.

As for how many rounds I shoot a year? Probably around 6000 a year give or take a thousand. I go 2-3 times a month to the range and put 200-250 rounds down range every time I go.

Guess I missed the "Other" option (man do I need to learn to read better).

I went with "I don't shoot often" because I don't. The only reason I've gotten more than 300 rounds downrange in the last six months is because for two months now I've attended a (monthly) little class/get together that includes between 100 and 200 rounds shot per class, and that's done with a 9mm that is not my primary carry.

In addition, while right now I'm 100% (pocket) carry with my P238, that's only this "month's" flavor. Next month I may be back to purse carry of my other 9mm. Regardless, when I do go to the range (other than for my class), I make a point of including running at least a couple mags thru one or two of my regular carry guns. But again, with this whole "options" thing, it is a little harder to exercise them all regularly.

Other.
As much as I wanted to check #1, I haven't put enough rounds down range lately to qualify.
I usually arrive at the range with my P3AT on my hip and just change mags out for practice. Like some others, I really enjoy shooting it. I'll put at least 50-100rds through it each visit. I also practice tactical mag changes and malfunction drills with it every time I shoot it.
I've put enough SD ammo through it to know what it likes (200+) but, only a few rounds of the Critical Defense ammo I currently carry. I carry my spare mag (OK, 2) full of hollow points I know to be 100% reliable just in case.
I hate to say it but, I probably shoot more rounds out of my KelTec than my Kimber but, then again, I carry it more too.

OTHER-
I haven't fired my LCP yet . I normally carry my 40 XD SC. I put a 200/300 down range before my CHL class and have gone back since. Still need to take the LCP out but don't think I put much through it. I like it because it small enough to fit in my pocket, with the XD I need my heavy belt for the IWB.
