Summer carry. Whatcha using?

Since it gets so hot here in the summer, I have to forgo the 1911 and I carry a Glock 19 in an Incog holster. Incog holsters are a great piece of gear. It's a soulless combination, but I don't care if I sweat all over the Glock. It's a police trade-in, Gen 3, so no big deal if it gets abused.

I'm about ready to pull the trigger (heh) on a Smith and Wesson M&P340 to make a lighter-weight and pocketable pistol for carry. My favorite Kuhl shorts have very small pockets, so I hope it works out.

So how do you beat the heat while packing heat?

The same thing I always carry, winter or summer. A j-frame in my pocket.

Browning Hi-Power in a shoulder holster or IWB, or a J Frame pocket carry.

I.e. same as Paw Paw, what I usually carry

PA-63. One reload. NAA .22LR Mini Revolver, as a backup. If I'm jogging, just the NAA.

* I used to carry the PA-63 in a bellyband while jogging, but this is more comfortable. I may end up regretting this choice, but for now, I'm willing to go with it.

Taurus tracker 357 in the summer and 44 mag in winter , dosent get that hot here , when at the cabin or fishing a 45-70 on my back , because hand guns tend to just annoy big growlers .

KelTec PF9.
Pretty much what I always carry, unless it's a Taurus 605 357 snub. Sometime I carry that.
NAA mini-magnum as deep backup.

I carry a j-frame 360 almost all the time, winter or summer. I don't typically do pocket carry- lately my favorite holster is the a Remora IWB.

I have a Desantis as well- might be the nemisis...I've got a second one for my SD9. It's a nylon clip-on. I got the remora for the ability to tuck in a shirt over it, but I like it so much that it's taken over as my daily carry holster.
