    Any of you all carry a Back Up Gun also?

    been giving this more thought. I normally carry a S&W Shield or my Sig P239 both single stacks in 9MM.
    have been looking more at getting something small like a Ruger EC9s for a BUG gun and carrying it in a Ankle holster as I wear jeans or pants most of the time.
    just curious if any of you carry a BUG and what is it and how do you carry it.

    I carry a P220 for work and a S&W 340PD as a back-up. When not working, only one revolver.

    I carry ether a Glock 19,26, or 48 in a IWB holster and a Glock 19 in my EDC sling pack that I always have with me, never needed it so far but what the heck.

    I have a P220 also and have thought about carrying it some and I will when the cold time of year gets here due to its size. one thing I have been wanting to add to it is a light. do you have a light on the P220 of yours?

    No light. Just a standard 220 Elite.

    I have carried my glock 19 and m&p 9 both with a back up gun before. Dont make it a habit but i have depending on what im doing, who i am with and where we will be going. Its never much of a back up. Usually a smith and wesson bodyguard 380 or NAA mini revolver.

    I don't carry a backup and I don't carry enough ammo for a fire fight. I do good to get my stuff not to print, still be comfortable and accessible. Was easier before I lost weight.

    Interesting you should mention that it was easier before you lost weight. Just the other day I was thinking, "this gun would be a lot more comfortable on my hip if I wasn't so fat!" Thinking of starting to carry in the small of my back.

    I just carry the Kimber. If I thought I might need a back up Id carry a Wilson instead. Roddy you will like the Master Carry. Yeah it might print a little but people have their head shoved so far up their cell phone, they will never notice.

    I carry a 45 Springfield XDs with the 4” barrel and a 32 keltec for a small back up. Also have a 380 ruger that I carry in place of the Springfield depending on where I’m going.

    Have you thought about carrying IWB up front? I keep mine just off center its the most comfortable place I have found and also quickly accessible.
