What method of carry do you prefer?

I just bought a Rooger LCP. Why, you ask?

I have it in my front pants pocket (cargo pants) and nobody knows it is there.

I understand the puny on paper ME, but if I stick two or three hollowpoints in your right nostril at 20 feet, your palm pocket will suddenly clear the rest of your appointments that day.

I usually have my P-14 with me, but it's a bit bulky and pulls my pants down.

I hear you I.S., that's the reason why I carry a Diamondback DB9. It might not have the smack of a .45, but a 9mm, or even a .380 is NOT something I want to be shot with!

I have always said any gun that works is better then no gun when you need one.

Cross breed makes a wonderfull IWB hoster. I'm poor so I bought 2 SW 5906s one for me and one for my son. I carry it when ever I leave the house. Heavy is an under statement but the super tuck makes it very comfortable. If my rich uncle gets out the poor house I plan to buy a lighter pistol but what ever it is I'll be figuring in $85 for another super tuck.

After piddling around with a bunch of pistols & holsters, have settled on three in the order of carry frequecy:

Ruger LCP in DeSantis pocket holster in front jeans pocket or coat pocket.

Kahr CM9 in UBG vertical appendix IWB holster. Sufficient for carjacking draw.

Glock 26 in vertical appendix modified Milt Sparks IWB holster.

I've fiddled with a few IWB holsters but nothing that is really comfortable for any extended period of time. I like hip holsters but they are not always concealable. I might try super belt slide next. The main thing I'm learning is that a small fortune can easily be spend figuring it out.

AIWB for me. Carrying about 1 o'clock or a bit less, in a kydex holster made by Dale Fricke. I carry a G19 and an untucked shirt. This method is by far the fastest draw stroke. We have proved it over and over in force on force training with airsoft. If you have a belly it may not work for you. It also great to get to when on the ground and somebody is mounted on you and raining down fists or blades.
