Question How do you Carry?

Now we've all talked about carrying, but I haven't seen a poll about how we carry. I'm just curious how the percentages stack up, so I thought I'd ask.

What is your primary carry method? If you are one of the members that carries more than one gun, or switches often, what is your preferred method? There have been a couple of recent threads with the open/concealed debate , so I won't get into that.

If you want to voice why you carry this way (have to for work, most comfortable, etc), go for it.

---------

Sorry, just realized too late I forgot the fanny pack.

Thanks, Bud. I appreciate your help. It wasn't but 10 seconds after I hit "submit" before the Homer Simpson moment..."DOH!"

I carry Smartcarry (voted thunderwear) 70% of time, and IWB the other 30%. Do rarely carry OWB but this shouldn't count as my primary means of carrying
