If I'm traveling I'll have two guns because it's nice to remove the IWB gun and still have an option when you want to get out of the car for a quick break but other than that...
The benefits of having a second gun at all won't be apparent until needed. It's the same thought regarding carrying a gun at all in the first place. Better to have one and not need it than to need it and not have it.

I do not carry a second gun. Only two spare mags and two knives.
Better to have 3 and not need them? What about 4? A SAW? Where's the line drawn on what is needed and what is not? I draw mine at personal comfort vs. realistic threat assessment.

I too carry a knife and extra mags.
It's a personal choice. I like to live on the edge and only carry one. :biggrinjester:

Re: EDC a BUG

My EDC is a Glock 30SF. It is classified as a BUG for IDPA and will now fit into their classification for CCP.
