Because...to my mind it in reality is. I suit up differently depending on where, when, dress, and weather. Without an unusual extant threat, intuitive or otherwise, my u&c these days range from 1911 down to an NAA Mini, depending.

My new love is my Sig M11A1 with it's 16 rounds of plus p and spare mag. Along with my appendix carry 938.
An M1. I know you said no rifles. I mean this one

Every day IS different.
A prolonged gunfight is extremely unlikely. Unlike LEO's that have to stay engaged, your needs are to disengage (safely) ASAP.
Being armed to handle every situation you could ever encounter is just not possible. You play the odds to whatever level you're comfortable with.
That's just reality.
Had to think about that for a minute.
I mean really, really, really KNOWING you're going in harm's way?
Mmmmmm
I'd start with my Bianchi IIIa vest.
Then strap on identical twin Hk P2000 357 guns with a P2000SK 357 bug.
And finally add icing on the cake - Hk SP5K with a folding brace and mags, mags, mags...
Sounds more like a new addition to the Resident Evil series - LOL!
Normally my EDC is a S&W Model 60 Pro and a Kahr MK9 also.
In times of higher risk, I go the H&K P30SK or my CZ P01 or my FN FiveSeven.
I know this senerrio does not allow, but the answer is to not go. My GF and I were headed out one time and she asked me if I thought I would really need a gun where we were going. My reply was that if I really thought I would need a gun there I wouldn't go. I guess on this day I would carry my Browning BDA .45 on my hip, and PM9 IWB and my CW380 in my front pocket. an extra mag for each would have to do as I would probably be walking in circles due to the extra weight.
Those 2 made my list too. The P-01 is still in breakin phase and I'm thinking about adding Meprolights like the H&K came with. I like and carry the P30SK a lot and it can even drop in the pocket if necessity dictates but its usually appendix IWB. I swear for a 2 finger grip the custom panels make it feel like a full size gun.
Did you notice the follower in the H&K mags? As tall as it is I bet it could be "modified" to carry 2 more rounds but I'd need another follower to experiment.
