EDC What's your go to ?

At work I carry a Sig 938 in a pocket holster. Out of work I go between a Glock 43 and a Glock 19/23 in a crossbreed holster.

Typically my PM9 for compact carry, or my H&K VP9 if I want something bigger.

Just picked up a G26 this weekend, so that may end up replacing the PM9 once I get a feel for it.
 
229 carry 9mm with prebans in Vedder light tuck.
Also have a light tuck for 226.
Likely picking up xds 3.3 9mm for times I want my pants to stay up. A3F81D6D-C91E-4AE6-877E-318CFE536452.jpeg

But I remember something an Instructor told me one day, He said" Never bring anything to a gunfight that doesn't begin with a 4"..... He said that with a huge smile afterwards.

One of these two. Usually the LC9s, but sometimes I like the 1911 - Compact length with a compensator to bring it to commander size, Officer sized frame with mag well to bring it to standard sized grip.

I am the minority here for sure. Kahr P9 because I'm more accurate with it than the Shields that I had. Thinking of a P238 again, (had 2) because I like the all metal gun.

I shoot them both very well out to 15 yards.

If I have room in my pocket for a speed loader I carry one

I'm not in the mindset that I have to be prepared for a "mall shootout". I carry in case of an up close and personal encounter.
 
EDC in the Northeast kinda depends on EDW (every day weather).... I always have a G43 in pocket (DeSantis pocket holster), and depending on season/month/weather etc, either a G26 (ankle or IWB) or G17 IWB (in addition to the pocketed 43). I always have a spare mag (or two) for whatever the heavier (26 or 17) carry of the day is.. But the 43 is even in my jogging shorts, or sweatpants, or Borat-style jockstrap literally always... ;)
 
When Marty & Billy decide I'm a big enough boy to be trusted with an unrestricted license I would carry my Ruger LC9S or my Sig P938. Until then I am relying on my guardian angel...
 
Phone and a med kit so I can call 911 and possibly be alive when help arrives.

But when I don't feel like going with option 1, a G19 or 1911 with a M&P9c when I feel like carrying something smaller.
