Everyday Carry (pics & explanation)

[TX69]

Big Phil do you ever get looks or comments when carrying that set up? I use a Maxpedition manpurse when walking dog that my wife "use to" poke fun at. Its been three years now and no one has ever said anything but it may appear that I have it for a purpose. Not sure if I would venture out with all of that gear plus the concern of it being separated from my person.

-G19 gen4 with Hornady Critical Defense 135gr rounds (will start carrying extra mag when I get a mag pouch)
-Smith & Wesson Extreme Ops pocket knife
-Aviator glasses
-Keys
-Wallet
-Sturdy belt
-Not pictured: phone, because it's being used to take the picture

It's a light load out complete with the bare necessities compared to most of you folks but it gets the job done.

How well does that G19 conceal on you? I've been debating on getting a g19 or g26 for ccw, but concealability is a concern.

Excellent. I have a smaller frame than you and I pull it off nicely. The only stipulation is that I tend to wear looser shirts i.e. fishing shirts more often now because I carry at 5 o'clock and the rear end of the shirt goes down further than a regular t-shirt. Some would argue that carrying 5 o'clock is too far back but I practice my draw enough that it doesn't affect me. When I'm in my truck I just put my G19 under the console. I highly recommend it though and many others would agree that the G19 is ideal for a CCW. Plus, the Alien Gear holster is comfortable if you like wide set holsters.

Good to hear. I primarily am looking to carry AIWB, so I'm still debating on whether I can reasonably conceal a g19 there. Thanks for the info though.

Honestly, if it's for AIWB, I'd go with a G26. I couldn't see a G19 fitting comfortably in the front but if you were carrying in the back it would be ideal.

Typically it's either my G26 or P6. The Glock rides in a FoxX Hybrid and the Sig is carried in a Crossbreed. I like 147 gr HSTs and Gol Dots. I carry a minimum of one extra mag. Torch is a Fenix LD10. Blade choice is Bokër SubCom F, Ka-Bar TDI or Kershaw 1760DAM Skyline (not pictured).

Lately, I've been carrying my LCR 357 in a pocket holster too. It's stoked with Buffalo Bore low flash short barrel.

I work in a corporate environment, so this is about as tactical as I get.

 

[sonuvaTXgun]

Is that Cerakote on your G26?

 

[IXLR8]

If I carried that much stuff I would have to wear suspenders to keep my pants falling down...

 

[MrBigIron]

Bic lighter
leather trifold wallet
pack of ciggs
ink pen

I have a cell phone, but I don't wear it. I check messages when I get back in the truck.

Hardly justifies a photo, so none included. I sometimes have a knife and/or gun. You guess when ;-)

My friends and I were all shooting together so we snapped a couple pics of our gear

Sig P6 with Rat 1 and Ontario Utilitac 2 and Bk11

CZ 75 compact and BK2

Ruger GP100 and Ontario RAK

 

[kotetu]

That BK2 is a lot of knife to carry around every day. I've toyed with the idea of carrying my Fin:

For now I have switched out my old bear grylls folder with an S30V Propel Downrange AO:

My EDC is a Kimber Eclipse Ultra II, which I carry in a Comp-Tec OWB paddle holster. Condition 1, of course.

No joke. I have one and it's like a sharpened 1/4 pry bar.

 

[556.45.12]

I'm calling BS on this one. Who EDCs a wheelgun like that? Does your friend have blue ox named Babe? But really though, since no holster is present I'm guessing it's just a range toy?

 

[Jakashh]

I bet I coulda gotten away with Mexican carrying my old 44 mag 7.5" redhawk. I'd just tell people I have a very big dick.

Right! Though, they do sell one of those, the BK3. I go back and forth on what to bring camping and usually bring too many. haha
