Who carries a full size gun! Sig p226 in a Vedder holsters light tuck iwb kydex or in a Maverick Gun leather owb concealment/ my open carry holster. Belt is a Beltman double bull hide belt (highly recommended)

Those of you who carry full size what do you carry and what in and what on? And do you Oc?

G19, not quite full size, but close, with a fully loaded spare magazine on weak side.

Also, an elephant hide Beltman Gun Belt.

OC, very occasionally.

Full size S&W M&P 9 OWB DeSantis scabbard with thumb break. I OC the majority of the time, but it covers well with just an untucked shirt, if I decide to CC.

Government or Commander size 1911 in a Dual Carry from DM Bullard with a Beltman belt. I do not OC.

G23

Full size 1911 or XD45

Since I live in a reasonably quiet, rather rural area, I often carry a Ruger Security Six OWB, and a speed strip in a belt pouch. I almost always wear button up shirts untucked (even before getting my CHL/LTC), so I still cover it up, though. A good GUN belt is the key to carrying a full-size firearm.

Your 100% correct. The belt is the key

Full size or commander 1911, vm2, beltman belt.

Full size XD-45. Lives in a Triple T IWB holster on an actual gun belt (forgot what brand of belt).

That sits at about 4 o clock, with a spare mag on my left side.

I sometimes carry Glock 17 with a +2 magazine. It's fairly easy to conceal. I also carry once in a great while either a full-sized M&P45 or a 5" 1911. Concealing a full sized gun - even OWB - is not that hard if you dress around the gun. And if you're going to OC, then of course, concealability is irrelevant. The main reason I usually carry my G19 instead of the G17 is that its compact size and slightly lighter weight makes carrying that much easier.

Full size 1911 in .45, .38 super and 10mm. 1911 Commander in .357sig and .45. All carried in belt slide. 38super carried 90% of the time.

Tanfoglio BTA90 9mm, 12+1, chambered round, safety off. OWB nylon paddle with thumb break.

I carry openly where I can, conceal as the situation dictates, disarm only if I must. I prefer OWB. When wearing a suit or a winter coat, my pistol will be behind clothing just because that's how works.
