What's your currect EDC?


98Z5V

Recommended Posts

What do you carry everyday.  Not "sometimes," or "when it's rough"...   What is ON YOU ALL THE TIME - when you're out and about.  This includes what's in your daily driver, that you can fight your way to, if shiit goes south on you all of the sudden...

What do you have, that's either ON YOU, or immediately available if you can gun-battle to it right away? 

I'm interested.   :popcorn:

I carry a fixed blade on the job as the state doesn't allow guns. But my ride has a g43 in a iwb holster w 4 12 rnd mags filled with Buffalo bore 124gn. 

In a go bag I have a g20 10mm with 3 mags and 200 loose rnds.  Equipped with an olight baldr (s) In the go bag is pistol, the mags  and a small trama kit with 2 tourniquets and bleed stop.  Smith and wesson hand cuffs. Hinges not chains. 

I currently have an ar500 soft armor vest but soon to be a safelife vest . Pistol rated 3a+  if I need more I'm not more then 10 minutes to 

"come get some! " In my best Duke nukem voice! That's all I'm telling.. this may vary due to intel.

S&W 9c with a spare extended mag 40ish rounds total. In a Maxpedition Fatboy slung pack. Unless I go to the gym. Then the fatboy stays home and I have a much smaller SIG 938 with one mag and the much less gear is in a fanny pack that I either wear slung cross chest or more frequently just carried by the belt. 

Lately, since biteme let in all  the dirtbags I also take along, cased, a S&W 5" M&P with red dot and one ext' mag. It's my competition gun and with it I can reach out and touch. 

In all the years I've been carrying (since '82) I've used my EDC to dispatch maybe half a dozen very sick 4 legged mammals and one car struck deer. Storytime... Maybe tears ago on the way home a fox was in the road. This was during the day. Clearly the fox was very sick and was looking at my truck like it wanted to mate with it. I continued on home, maybe 2 more miles and I called the game warden. He was really pissed and asked why I didn't shoot it. A fox is a furbearer and the governor owns them. Not shooting it was safe for me. I was tols in no uncertain terms next time shoot the thing and let the wardens know where to pick it up. He was pissed that he was going to pound the puckerbrush looking for a rabid fox.

If I'm going to be gone most of the day or far away I leave the M&P home and take the B&T GHM9 SBR with 6 29 round mags and can.

Being in the peoples republic of Marylandstan, plus working in DC a lot, nothing on me goes bang at all. Nothing in the ride goes bang.

Now that being said. On me, I always have a cold steel folder, multiple flashlights, water bottle, an oversized version of an IFAK packed into one of those velcro tear away style BDS Tactical first-aid pouches attached to the backpack. Then the standard electronics that just about everybody (except Tom) carries. Phone, laptop and such.

I figure, worst case (if you've ever seen some of the armed guards in federal buildings), I can spin one of them around and use them as a human shield while pulling their service weapon as I drag them backwards until I find better cover and re-assess. But I never put any thought into it. (grin)

Just as a follow up. This is my daily bag that I have for work. It goes everywhere with me for most of the time throughout the day.

I have a similar setup on a separate bag that gets thrown in the truck for personal time.

As I said before, being in a commie leaning state, nothing goes bang. It makes the comrades over in Annapolis very sad that we're even "allowed" to still own things that go bang.
