    Which is hilarious because I have seen so many people with fanny packs lately and none of them have guns :D

    Every since they passed CC in Texas, any website you looked at about how to conceal, #1 option was always a fanny pack.

    When i was still in Houston at my old job, we had a showroom. After interacting with my customers that had fanny packs, id always ask what kind of gun they were carrying. Most answered with Revolvers, Glocks & Shields.

    Dedicated my right front pocket for pocket carrying my ruger lcp ii and the rest is normal. I usually don't carry cash so my wallet is one of those newer super thin ones that holds your credit card, debit card, insurance card, and ID.

    Front right pocket: knife and keys. Right rear pocket: wallet. Left front pocket : kleenex. Kydex holster IWB @ 4:00. P365 w/10+1. No spare magazine, but I do carry a spare magazine in the car console and 200 rounds of ammo in the trunk, just in case of a zombie invasion.

    Rather than have a key ring with all my keys on it, I changed my setup probably 15-20 years ago. Now have a key ring for each car truck & bike with only the vehicle key and a house key. Simpler and less bulk.

    On me, Spyderco knife and keys front pocket, phone other front pocket, wallet back pocket, pistol OWB with shirt untucked. I keep a spare mag with ball nose target rounds in the the truck for the off chance I need penetration. Small flashlight in the truck along with an empty coffee can and roll of toilet paper inside (I won’t get into why). I usually dont carry the spare mag on me because the intent is defense, and not a drawn out fire fight. I will take the spare mag in my other back pocket if I’m going to be outside of a populated area and away from my car. Wife and I like to walk in areas outside of our neighborhood where we might not fit in. In that case, I take the spare mag.

    I think I’m a bit more minimalist than
    y’all. I don’t like feeling like I’m carrying a ton of crap…

    Wallet, super thin and lightweight.
    Sig IWB, 4 o’clock.
    Leatherman on my belt.

    Keys are similarly minimalist…one key, remote key fob, O-light mini that’s barely larger than a AA battery.

    And of course a watch.
    Always a mechanical watch because I’m a WIS - Watch Idiot Savant

    House has electronic deadbolts so no key required.

    Before the nursing home took them all, it was #1 gun various holsters IWB/OWB @ 4:00, 2 mags in OWB carriers @ 8:30 & 9:30, SpiyderCo, NAA & keys rt front, wallet lt rear, 1 mag lt front, heavy T-shirt with Kel-Tec lt chest pocket, suspenders b/t T & fishing shirts, tails out untucked. Extra Kel Tec mag lt front. Pen & tiny flashlight lt front shirt, phone in rt. I won't bore y'all with the rest. I have had friends kidnapped, tortured, murdered, and killed in home-invasions. Truck has hidden weapon(s) & ammo. Before anyone comments, my Police Detective/ATF Son couldn't find it after I told him it was there. Various back-up ammo, often a long gun in truck, too. Yes,, I frequently carry 100 rounds on-person, the suspenders help. My Daughters say that I "clank when I walk", but I don't care. Of course, now there's Nurse Ratchet to scare the BG's off. One observation: I've found it easier to hide things "in plain sight" than using concealment devices. One can mount a black-handled revolver onto the transmission hump of a Jeep so that it looks like a drive-train lever.

    I do the same thing with keys.

    I guess this is considered a fanny pack but works great for me. For work I am almost always off body carrying. This fits a G19 with a light. Room for my phones, key fob, spare mag, and a knife. Have it slung diagonally across my chest.

    Car fob on one "ring" (a cable "ring"); house keys, customer office keys, flashlight (Fenix that uses a 123A battery ; brighter than the BIL's much bigger and much more expensive flashlight), tiny multi tool on another; wallet; pocket pistol; a pack with wipes, masks, and tools (so I tell customers, as I'm not wearing a mask) that really has a full size H&K USP, spare mags for it, and spare mags for the pocket pistol. There may be a mask in there somewhere.
