I used to carry a Glock 26 when called upon to do so and a Heckler & Koch MP5 on the rarest of occasions (only the former being concealed) and never felt totally comfortable but firearms are strictly controlled here in the UK.

Woo.

Sco19 or was it So19 or was it Co19?

Never carry guns when you got a copy of Best of Mayfair on you, there is no room for both.

Generally when a firearms issue was called in your patrol area or a 'shout' at Newcastle Airport.

I usually have a pocket knife with me, but that is more of a tool than a weapon, though it can be used as on if need be. Whenever I go outdoors on a hike or some such I have a hunting knife with me on my belt, but that isn't really concealed, occasionally have a handaxre on the belt as well.
As for firearms, I have had a long term plan to get myelf a CZ 75B just for some range time and I find maintaining firearms relaxing, sort of like meditation. I doub't I would carry it on a regular basis even thouhg I would be within my rights to do so.
