I consider it prudent to carry a second gun, so I do. As one friend has said, If you prepare for the average gunfight, you are under prepared for 50 percent of them.

I carry BUG not so much for myself, but for the ability to arm my loved ones if I had to venture out while they would stay in place in a shtf situation.

Re: Anyone carry a back up gun?
I don’t carry a BUG, and I’m generally not a fan of ankle carry. Ankle carry is really only practical when you are seated in a car. If you’re going to be sitting in traffic in a high crime area then I can understand it. I can also understand it for something like a wedding or funeral or other event you may need to dress up. Aside from those situations, I’ll carry a primary firearm and spare mag. ......either way, to each their own. This is America, do as you please.

Re: Anyone carry a back up gun?
My first carry gun was a Cz75 clone(tanfoglio), and my second(arcus), and third(sarsilmaz). My fourth was a kahr cm9 for pocket carry/deep concealed. Hated the trigger, seemed as accurate as all other mouse guns, belly to wall range lol. Didnt much care for it. While browsing waiting on a transfer it was suggested i get a grip on a p365 and i fell in love. Mind you, i hate striker fired guns, had a glock (i think it was a 23, 2nd gen/almost a decade ago) and sold it after 2 range trips.
I purchased the sig p365 on the grip/egros, and the ease of racking the slide alone(rheumatoid).
What shocked me was how damn accurate and soft it shoots.
If you havent picked one up or tried one out, i think you may be pleasantly surprised. Did i mention it will disappear in damn near any pocket?

Re: Anyone carry a back up gun?
I have the ability to carry up to 3 guns at a time. G26 on the ankle (heavy, need an ankle holster for the 43 or J frame), 43 in pocket, and 19 or larger on the hip.
Do I do this in practice? No, not really. Did a couple times to see if it was livable, it was, I consider it an option for times of extreme unrest. We're not quite there, if there's riots all over the place I'll do that. My current EDC is the 26, strong side pocket. If I'm OC, I do retain a pocket gun, whatever I feel like bringing along that fits.
Now, as to ankle carry in general, if I'm going to be spending a lot of time driving in-state, I'll ankle carry on purpose. Very easy to draw while seated in the vehicle, unencumbered by seat belts.
