9mm is the most popular because it's inexpensive to practice with, easy to carry, packs a punch and penetrates well with minimal recoil compared to say a 40mm pistol. I prefer a 45acp with 185+p ammo. It penetrates like the 9mm, has twice or more times the force upon impact of the 9mm, moderate recoil because it's heavier than 9mm pistols. It is larger, but I carry it well, it holds 10+1 rounds and is the most reliable of my handguns. I figure if I take a headshot, the 9mm could be deflected by the skull, where the 45 would not likely be deflected away.

I carry with .380 ACP, 9mm, and 45 ACP right now, but mostly with the 9mm because it is the best gun I have for the moment for concealed carry. The pistol also takes 17+1 which is kind of nice insurance.
 
Hope I'm not too late to this party.

I'm 357 Sig all the way for EDC weapons - Glock 31 and 32, and a Sig P226. Have a 1911 45 ACP and KelTec PF9, but don't carry either one.
My most frequent EDC is a Sig P938. As I'm frequently on the road I sometimes carry Sig P228 - both 9mm. 228 has 18+1 vs 7+1 on the 938.
I recently picked up a P226 but haven't found a holster for cc that I like - what are you using to carry yours?

I use the Alien Gear IWB holster to carry my full-size glock 21. Very comfortable, doesn't dig into your side, and can barely even notice I carry. Would recommend to anyone for any fun. Best purchase I've made for holsters
