I've recently started riding again.
While I have larger bikes, I seem to spend most of my time on a dual-purpose/crossover bike cruising the logging roads and narrower blacktops of the East Texas piney woods. I rarely hit speeds above 55 mph and many miles are 20-25 mph. Sometimes I travel roads I've never been on before and I've encountered folks involved in nefarious activities (dumping, hauling contaband, etc). I also run across hogs on occassion, which caused me to question the G42 I was carrying on my hip.
I'm exploring options in regard to weapons and mode of carry.
I have considered a SAA style in .45 or .357, a DA revolver in .357, a Beretta 92, a G26 or 27, and. Redhawk in .454. Belt carry, chest rig, and others have crossed my mind.
I don't want my mode of carry to be obvious, and want access, comfort, and proper firepower, all at the same time.
Winter and summer options might vary.
I'm open to suggestions and would love to hear your experience.
