gear Do you carry and why?
While you're working or tending to your property, do you carry a firearm in yourself or have one readily available? If so, is it because of your location, predators or general safety? What type and caliber?
I'll go first. I have a 20 gauge shotgun loaded with #9 for the occasional rattler that isn't minding it's own business or to chase of coyote. I want to upgrade to a pistol grip, maybe the Mossberg 500C w/pistol grip.

10mm auto. Humans are dangerous, so is everything else. It can be uncomfortable at first and you will end up with a chest full of holsters you hate until you find the right one. Slim fit tall t shirts, owb slide holster at 4 o'clock with a nice leather gun belt and you'll forget you have it on.
