What's your most boujee gun you carry? Or maybe just your most unusuaL?

Maybe this little TPH. Its more of a piece of jewelry than a gun.

I have my Nighthawk on my permit for some reason, but I would never carry a gun that size.

This confuses me; how do you shoot this thing??

The bougiest gun I’ll be carrying (as soon as the holster arrives tomorrow) is my DWX compact. Other than that, it’s G19 or most often P365.
Hey
I had the dwx compact I got it specifically for caring, but I cannot find a holder that I’m happy with

The ones I’ve tried to scratch up the frame, but now doing research could be. It’s not the holster could be the finishing and it has to be redone.

What holster did you get and you have the same issues?

CQC holster here (https://closequarterscarry.com/), so far no finish issues. I did read that some of the DWXs had finish issues and some people actually got DW to refinish it under warranty. It might be that you got a bad one and need to redo it, rather than the holster being the issue.

Though admittedly, I haven’t gotten enough reps in and out of the holsters yet to 100% say I won’t see some finish wear…

Got it I’m still figuring this out
Most people online complained that the barrel and slide finish is bad. Mine is great. It’s just the frame.

I actually really liked their holster, but it scratched it up bad look at pics

So I’m debating maybe to go through warranty and once that’s complete do I really wanna carry it or since it will be my largest pistol on my tend to leave it at home

It’s the opposite of bougie but I think the combo of being off roster and a single stack and the shift away from .45 means I’m probably one of like two people in the state who carry a shield 2.0 in 45.

I just saw it as the equivalent of a 3” 1911 that’s lighter and not ammo sensitive or in need of tuning etc.
 
Honestly I shouldn’t. It’s too damn expensive to not care about if it gets seized for evidence. But…Wilson edc x9. At least there’s a version on roster now so replaceable…..at a price
Yes if this wasn’t 5k I’ll grab it and carry it daily

How much will the CA version be??

Pass on the 2.0 on roster variant sadly. It's not optics ready right? Although maybe if Wilson offers the new pin system for it like the Experior Elite and Divison 77 stuff instead of the older true zero plate system.
 
I don't think my usual ccw rotation is unusual, but they work for me and have been reliable, easy and fun to shoot, and can be replaced if needed (no sentimental value, just dollars).

I usually carry, among other 2011s, an Atlas Ares 4.25, Staccato C4X, or a Wilson Combat Edc x 9 (1.0). Compact tends to be my preferred carry size, but I have a customized shield 1.0 if I need to go much smaller for some reason.
 
Wow with no optic and ugly lci
I actually heavily prefer the aesthetics of the 1.0 over the 2.0 anyways. The visible screws just ruin the aesthetics of an otherwise pretty classic looking gun.
