Howdy from the SW desert. New here but not to guns - got my first gun many years ago, a Moss 500 at the ripe age of 15. I am retired to a small ag property, where I daily carry a .38 Spec snubnose loaded with CCI snake-load. Somedays it is concealed otherdays, not - depends on if my shirt rode up

. But when I make a run to town, the ammo is changed out to .38 Spec +P JHP, worn totally CC.
Our state doesn't require any permits, so it's my choice to CC or not. If the news shows a lot of gun violence, I often opt to OC my Ruger GP101 .357 Mag loaded with HPs. All depends on where I am going.
When I was still working, I commuted on a big Harley, and found carrying my big Ruger OC, made other drivers a bit more respectful of my space
My wife still works in the city, and CCs a snubnose .38 Spec in her purse and a Ruger SP101 in her glovebox, both loaded up with JHP .38 ammo
