Summer carry is usually a 642 or Ruger LCR with a couple of speed strips. For bad areas and winter I go with1911 officer, commander, or 5" depending upon my needs for the day. I have a SP 101 that I sometimes carry OWB rather than pocket carry like the smaller 38s.
I like wheel guns and SA. Variety keeps life interesting

My EDC usually rotates between three different Glocks, but for "quick run to the store" events, I'll put my Taurus 85 Ultralite with Buffalo Bore +P rounds into my pocket.

...what's the weight of those slugs on the Buff. Bore and how's the recoil with the Ultralite???

Both. Glock 30 and S&W 642 as BUG; 2 reloads each.

158g LSWCHP. They can be a tad snappy in the Ultralite. But I try not to put a lot of +P through it. Don't want to beat it to death before its time.

It's probably somewhere in between.

It really depends on where I am going and how I feel that day. If I'm in a rush and I'm going to the grocery store, I'll carry my S&W 360 357 mag. At other times, I'll carry my S&W M&P 9c or my S&W M&P mid-size 45. If I am going on a longer trip, I'll use my 360 as a BUG. I have a DeSantis pocket holster for it and an IWB Galco KingTuK that fits the pistols.
