Well there is one possible permutation of the future where I end up traveling and living in a small motorhome with the leftover stuff stored in a storage place so less is better.

Not me. God willing and the river don't rise I'm staying put until the end.

And I completely understand that since you have homes and multiple properties to hand down to family, for me I’d rather live and travel in an “apartment” on wheels instead of a brick and mortar building where the view never changes.

I can understand that, dearly love the place we have built up for retirement. But, if something happens to my wife a lot of the area and size is her design. I would be better served by a small cabin in the woods. Barring that a motorhome or large vsn traveling the roads less traveled of the country might be a nice compromise.

To me, it doesn't matter what you carry. As long as you are law abiding, carry what best fits you. Not all firearms are a good fit for everyone. Some may be more effective with a semi auto, some may be more effective with a certain brand and model, and some may be more effective with a revolver. If you are skilled with what you carry and your point of aim and point of impact is intact, then run what you brung. Don't let some of the community dictate what you are confident with. Those people should be supportive not snobs. Walk tall and carry on.

I have a S&W 638 Bodyguard that is always handy around the house. I also carry it when I go for walks or recumbent trike rides. It's so easy to conceal and I like that I can carry either 38 snake shot, 38 special hollow points or a combination of both...
I also have a New Model Vaquero (7.5 inch barrel) in 45 Colt that's my "truck gun". It's with me most times when I drive near the Texas/Mexico border to visit relatives(Mission, Texas area, sometimes also head to Rio Grande City).
The first handgun I shot when I was young was a 38 Special revolver. I've owned lots of revolvers over the years but nowadays I only have a couple. If I didn't have neck injuries, I'd own a S&W 357 magnum or a 44 magnum(and I'd still a 1911 or more....
I've thought about a Ruger 327 magnum revolver...Attachments

There's apparently a bullpup revolver at Shot Show? Why? Why not I guess.

I own dozens of the so called "better options," but I still choose to EDC a Smith 686.
I'm sure you could out shoot and out preform them in a head to head contest. Then swap handguns and embarrass them even more.

Bub, you are behind the times and putting yourself in harm's way. Didn't Summer of Love 2020 learn you a GD thing?

They also aren't EDCing or conceal carrying AR15s, they are simply exercising their 2A rights, and they are legal gun owners. I own dozens of AR15s, AKs, and other platforms that I also train with, but I, like the legal gun owner in the photo, aren't toting them around everyday and everywhere we go.
A lot of Democrat gun owners like and own firearms too (irregardless of the lies that it's only white conservative), and they aren't murding extremist by default just because they are liberal and own guns. They want to protect themselves and their families too just like we do. Plus I looked over her post and the "socialist firearms" groups she is a part of, and I see no violent "kill conservatives" crazy radical leftist talk. It seems more like conversation we would have about guns and them being upset about AWBs and other gun control.
The worst I seen was a thread talking about protecting themselves at LGBTQ and other type of events from those who might try to harm them which is in the spirit of 2A, and even if I don't agree with their lifestyle or views, I support their right to have those views and to protect themselves from those who might want to harm them.

I've been very impressed with my K6S. Somehow Kimber waded late into the game, and knocked it out of the park.
When I carry a revolver, I generally alternate between the the Kimber and the Colt:

Seen one of those Kimbers at the last gun show...it was fully engraved and was amazing but can't beat that Colt...one of these days...nice revolvers...
