Daily Carry Gear... Whats your setup?

[Chris Plitt]

This post is for the review of THR.org crowd.

Lets talk about daily carry gear, and I don't mean for the armed professional (although I guess undercover units count). Lets be honest, theres a lot of gear out that that is said to be the best for this, the best for that, and some carry high price tags with them. I want to know what you carry, holster, knife, flashlight, taser (if you carry one), and your gun. I'm not looking for why you carry a particular gun, but I am looking for why you carry certain pieces of equipment.

I guess I'll go first!

I carry Sig P229 and I switch off between a JMG IWB tuckable holster and a Blackhawk CQC IWB holster. I carry a Surefire L1 Lumamax (led of course), and a Boker... can't remember the model, picked it up in Germany in 2003. Thats it! Now let me know what you carry!

-CP

[Dksimon]

I dont carry yet as is dont have a pistol.
I have been thinkng about getting a P229, How do you like yours?

[chupacabrah]

M&P9 IWB with UBG holster...its a little bulky. wilderness tactical belt, the 1.25" width belt w/ the rings

Smith Mdl 36 in Mika Pocket holster, need deep cut pockets, but works out well.

that's all I carry as yet. Hopefully will have more soon

[Goblin]

PT111 9mm ina IWB worn cross draw style! Sometimes just a 2inch .357 stuck in my front right pocket!!

[Ske1etor]

Pistol - Kimber Custom II
Holster - Galco Royal Guard II
Belt - 5.11 Basketweave
Mags - Wilson Combat 8 rd, Low Profile pads.
Ammo - Federal HST 230gr.

[357wheelgunner]

I pack a Sig P6 loaded with 124gr Goldensabers, in a Blade Tech IWB and a Wilderness Belt. Emerson CQC-7 clipped to one pocket, CPR shield and gloves in another, car keys, wallet, usually a spare magazine, and a flashlight if its dark.

[tawcat]

I carry either a Ruger LCP or a S&W 351PD, both in pocket holsters. Cold weather is coming which means jacket, in this case I'll move up to a S&W 642 on the hip.

[Ala Dan]

Usually, a Kimber Stainless Ultra Carry II in a Kirkpatrick Compact
Undercover Rig, with double magazine pouch, holding 2x Wilson
mags. Also, a KEL-TEC P3AT .380 auto in rear pants pocket as
a BUG~! ;) :D

[ryuu55]

PT 145B in a desantis holster IWB &
Ka-bar TDI for left hand draw.

[Arrogant Bastard]

S&W 640 in a DeSantis SuperFly pocket holster, loaded with Buffalo Bore 158-gr SWCHP +P.

When it's cool enough to wear an overshirt or jacket, Glock 30 in a Bianchi Minimalist holster, with 2 spare mags on belt. Loaded with Remington Golden Saber 230-gr. Also sometimes worn inside waistband in a SmartCarry with one extra mag, if it's too hot for concealing shirt.

[possum]

until my raven concealment holster gets in i carry my xd sc in a grandfather oak iwb with one extra mag on the opposite side of the gun. when the raven holster gets here i will ccw my service model xd and maintain the 1 spare mag.
i have been knocking around the idea of ccw a bug but i haven't descided yet. i trained with a bug a little at tactical response when i was up there for fighting and advanced figting pistol to get a warm an fuzzy.

[Old Grump]

I live in Wisconsin so I am armed with a S&W border patrol model folding knife and my cane. Fortunately both are still legal.

[sm]

Today ( again)

Kel-Tec P-11 stuck in my waistband. Vic Classic , Bic clear disposable ink pen.

Few days ago:
Early 1930s Colt Detective Special, with standard pressure 158 gr LSWC, in waistband/ back pocket ( no holster).
Boker 204 pocket knife, Parker Jotter ink pen, screwdriver in weak side pocket.

I do the same above with a OLDer S&W J frame, don't matter, if Model 36, 37, 042, 442, 642...

Other times finds me with a -
Gov't Model of 1911 bone stock, with 230 gr hardball in waistband, with pocket knives running from 2 3/4" pen knives to 4 1/4" Slim-Line Trappers ( I do not own a locking knife), various pens and pencils, a screwdriver.

Beretta Bobcat 21a in .22 lr is sometimes the only gun I carry.
I used to use a Jetfire and wish I still had one.

Lights: I do a Garrity disposable key ring light and Ray-o-Vac single AAA LED penlight. Both I paid about $3 for.


Been doing this way a long time, except for the P-11 being the newest gun and I think it is a 2000, 2001 year of mfg ? *shrug* ( forget).

I also spend time in places where one cannot have a gun, knife, nail clipper...
I am in my early 50s in case that makes any difference.

How raised what you do.


Use Enough ADEE

[mljdeckard]

Kimber Custom II with 3 total magazines. I switch between leather fanny pack, Galco Miami Classic, and Milt Sparks IWB. But I am considering trading out the third mag for a good Surefire flashlight/2nd mag carrier. I know I am more likely to need the light than a 3rd mag.

Cheap pen and click pencil. Leatherman Wave on belt. CRKT M-14 titanium in my right front pocket. small Spyderco on keyring. Cell phone, never more than half-depleted battery. (My phone also records voice memos with a button touch.) Camera in phone (which I normally roll my eyes at) is good to have as well. Wear shoes you can run in if you have to. Lately I've been wearing issued ballistic eye shields with the tinted lens over my regular glasses as sunglasses. (I need to get some prescription sunglasses.)

[Floppy_D]

P229 IWB, Uncle Mike's Sidekick holster. Kershaw folder. That's it.

[Code3GT]

Pistol: S&W SS 1911 .45acp
Holster: Comptac Minotaur IWB (awesome BTW!)
Mags: CMC SS no pads
Clip-on Mag Carrier (1 extra mag)
Belt: Comptac gunbelt
Knife: Boker Auto Kalishikov

[Treo]

Pharmacology text book

Kinn's The Medical Assistant Text book

BP cuff

Stethescope

Minnie Mag flash light ( mostly for checking PEARL)

Charis Bible College "Gimme" pen.

My Treo ( duh)

CZ75B or CZ 2075 RAMI both in .40 S&W Galco Summer Comfort IWB

Extra magazines ar kinda hard to carry in scrubs

[Chris Plitt]

@Dksimon

I love my P229, I'll never part with it, and it doesn't lend itself to the HK stigma (HK=BMW). I will admit though, the 229 does have snob appeal.

@Treo

It's good to hear that there's some doctors out there that actually carry. Are you in a hospital or a doctor's office? No matter what your specialty is, I wouldn't mind being your patient (Unless it's of the female persuasion, then I'm sure my wife wouldn't mind going).

[gp911]

Glock 21SF in a Comp-Tac CTAC holster, 1 spare mag. Mag in the gun has 230gr hollowpoints, currently Gold Dots, but I also have HST and some leftover FPD rounds. Backup mag is 230gr hardball.

I try to keep a knife handy, usually my el cheapo Frost Cutlery Flying Falcon (about 4-1/2" unfolded).

It's good to hear that there's some doctors out there that actually carry. Are you in a hospital or a doctor's office

I'm a college student, an MA isn't an M.D. I'm the guy that takes your vitals, does the initial assesment, draws blood , gives shots yadda yadda yadda. MAs are starting to take the place of LPNs and I hope to work either E.R. or urgent care ( or maybe the free clinic)

[conwict]

Kel-tec P11 IWB with clip, OWB with Uncle Mike's sidekick (if I'm wearing a coat), or pocket with Mika round cut (wish I had gotten square cut) if I have to tuck in the shirt, or possibly in coat pocket with Mika. Prefer IWB or OWB. Ammo is 11 rounds of Hi-Shok +p+ (9bple). 21 rounds when I have room for a spare mag.

Sodbuster Jr, the do-it-all sharpen-anywhere knife.

Olight T10 Q5 180 lumen 1 cell light. Don't care much for the SOS or strobe modes. I would prefer an interface that has "tactical momentary on" and adjusted brightness by tapping the clickie in "on" mode...with memory of course.

I also carry Kimber Lifeact Pepper Protector when I can fit it in the right front pocket, a Spitfire keychain unit, a spare batt on the keychain, a focused LED minilight on the keychain.

I try to always walk with a sturdy umbrella or my blackthorn walking stick. I often carry a stainless steel 40 oz water bottle partially filled.

Usually wear a camo "Mossy Oak" belt that is pretty stiff, cost about $20, and works well as a gun belt.

I've lately become dependent on 3x5 memo pads and carry two, one for daily tasks and one for a food log (into fitness/weight training), and to complement those a Zebra F-701 stainless steel pen...highly recommended, $5 at wally world.

Edit: Almost forgot, an id holder around my neck with my DL, Student ID, and CHP. I can get in big trouble if I'm missing one, and huge trouble if I'm missing DL and CHP...gotta make it simple.

[gbelleh]

In the summer, usually a Kel-Tec PF-9 with a P-3AT backup.
In cool weather, usually something larger. Either an HK USP .45c, Sig 228, or Sig 239 also with a P-3AT backup.
Some kind of folder, lately a Cold Steel 4" tanto.
Occasionally a Surefire E2e.

[Matt-J2]

Bang, you're dead.

[Borch]

Glock 23 w/Crimson Trace grips, loaded with 165 gr HST's in a High Noon Speed Skin holster. I carry this about 95% of the time. When I need somethign a little slimmer I switch to my 3913 loaded with 124 gr HST's in a High Noon Bare Asset IWB. No flashlights, usually no extra mags and no fancy knives. My knife is a simple Winchester folder I picked up at Walmart for $15 and sharpened the hell out of. It ain't pretty but it cuts whatever I need it to.

[dmazur]

Colt 1991A1 Commander w/ CT grips in Galco slide holster, spare magazine in Galco pouch, cell phone, Kershaw folder.

[PvtPyle]

If I am dressed nice I wear a 220 Elite for brown clothes or a 220 Equinox with the custom beaver tail and Elite SRT trigger for black clothes. Both ride in a Galco concealed carry holster and extra mags are in a Galco pouch. I carry a Benchmade auto opener everyday in my pocket.

For a regular day my real working gun is a Para P14R with an extended threaded barrel from Barstow. They too ride in Galco rigs.

[jordan1948]

Norinco SKS
http://i478.photobucket.com/albums/rr144/jordan1948/HPIM5433.jpg

Just kidding I don't carry but I pray for the day we can all carry what ever when ever, not because we have to but because we can.

[Stevie-Ray]

Today as normal, Kimber Ultra CDP II, .45 ACP in NRA slide @ 3:00 along with KelTec P32 in Uncle Mike's size 1 in back pocket.

[Bennett Prescott]

This comes up frequently, but here goes:

Mitch Rosen 1.5" Belt
Glock 36 in Milt Sparks Versa Max II
-> Loaded with Federal HST
Spare mag in MS pocket carrier
Ruger LCP in MS pocket carrier
-> Loaded with Winchester Ranger T
Kershaw Black Blur
Surefire E2D LED Defender flashlight

About 50% of the time recently I've been swapping my Kimber Tactical Custom II in (also in a Milt Sparks Versa Max II with Federal HST) for the Glock, with a spare mag in pocket holster as well. I like carrying a full size gun when I'm just about town, but if I'm doing any work I usually go for the Glock.

http://www.thehighroad.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=85481&stc=1&d=1222788901

[texas bulldog]

gun: ruger SP101 w/2" bbl
holster: none. i use a clipdraw (http://www.clipdraw.com/). sometimes at 1:00...sometimes at 4:00. (yes, i know it should be consistent)
knife: kershaw leek (assisted opening) in back strong-side pocket
multi-tool: leatherman XTi in back weak-side pocket

front weak-side pocket contains wallet (if you can call it that...it's more of a pouch with only the essentials: debit card, credit card, work credit card, DL, and health insurance card...i can't tolerate typical huge folding wallets) and loose folded bills or change (if any).

front strong-side pocket contains cell phone, sometimes a speed strip, and a gel-ink pen (my most important daily carry item, frankly).

no flashlight. keys are clipped to strong-side belt loop.

[AndyC]

I carry a stainless steel pencil.

[SoCalShooter]

Well when I carry out of state:


Weapon: Springfield Champion SS
Holster(s): Don hume IWB leather, or g-code IWB
Magazines:3 total
Flashlight: Streamlight scorpion
Lighter: Zippo SS
Knife: Gerber para 4" folder (maintenance worker), and a CRKT m-13D (social worker)

For hunting season:
weapon:HK USP 45
Mags: 3 total
Knives: same
Holster: Don hume IWB and don hume mag holster with don hume gun belt
or I carry with my uncle mikes kydex

I dont use any special ammo just 230 ball.

[Loosedhorse]

Primary gun (revolver) with laser. Pocket holster. Spare ammo.

Secondary gun (semi-auto) with laser and tritium. IWB holster. Spare ammo.

(Caliber and make? Not sure it matters that much. As long as they work.)

Flashlight.

Cell phone.

Knife.

Kubotan.

(I'd like to carry some OC, but it's hard to find space for; so, I usually just keep a can in the car, and one easy to access at home).

[Prepster]

Walther PPK in .380 acp, either in my front right pocket in a Desantis Nemesis or OWB @4 o'clock in a Desantis mini scabbard.

When I can't have a gun (legally, anyhow) I carry a yawara stick. 10 years of Judo will hopefully count for something if it needs to.

[Holgersen]

If I'm working it's my Bersa Thunder CC in an uncle mikes IWB holster. I used to pocket carry it but I need to put stuff in my pockets for work.

If I'm going out any other time I carry my Stoeger Cougar in an Uncle Mike's IWB. If I carry an extra mag it's usually just in my left front pocket. I usually just like to travel light.

[jjohnson]

For regular concealed carry, Russian Mak in .380 sitting in a Nemesis holster.

I know, it's NOT a .45, but then again, it's reliable, concealable, and reliable.

Did I mention reliable? It's also accurate. Nine rounds of high quality HP ammo is minimal in my opinion, but I don't look for trouble and I don't consider the Mak an assault rifle. Having the Mak for self defense is way better than not carrying my 1911.:scrutiny:

No, I don't carry an extra mag. Most folks carry nothing and are entirely aware of anything. I'm ahead on both counts.:evil:

[leftseat]

XD 45 Service with a UBG holster. Great weapon and a great holster.

Light is a Garrity LED in aluminum, its a thick three cell (3 AAA's) with a bottom button. I picked it up at walmart and I like it. Knife is a Kershaw Blur (black model)

Secondary is a Springfield SC in .40 S&W tucked into a DeSantis IWB, black nylon rig with the spare clip slot forward of the weapon. Still usually tuck the Kershaw and the same light. I will occasionally slip my old buck two blade folder into my pocket when I'm wearing tighter pants that make the grip on the kernshaw a pain to get my hand in and out of my pocket.

[TStorm]

Kahr PM9 in SmartCarry or Desantis Nemesis.

As of now -

Colt 1911 Officer's Model .45ACP in a cheap uncle mikes holster tucked into my Blackhawk Advanced Tactical Briefcase (along with all my diabetes gear). Nighttime finds a Surefire G2 in either a pocket on me or in the briefcase. Clipped to one pocket (depends on which pocket my insulin pump is attached to) is my Sypderco Delica 4. For times when I am not walking around with my briefcase, I have my S&W 642 in a Mika pocket holster.

Soon as it arrives I'll be using a Milt Sparks Watch Six for the 1911, which will just allow other items in the briefcase, or I'll switch back to using my 5.11 Tactical Vest to carry all my junk.

[j_charles]

[Geronimo45]

It was a 1911 with two spare mags in a vertical Vega shoulder rig. The 1911 extractor snapped recently, so I'm now carrying a 4" S&W 65 in that shoulder rig, the Ken Null SMZ shoulder rig, or a Bianchi or Ross (South African) OWB holster.

Holsters = I have too many, but I am fortunate to have a Milt Sparks VM2 for both primary guns. I also have a Galco Royal Guard for each.

Back up = My carry anywhere and everywhere all the time (read work) is a 642 in a Mika.

[Kind of Blued]

http://www.thehighroad.org/attachment.php?attachmentid=80382&d=1214266978

Now days I carry a Kahr PM9 instead of the Sig, but it is in that same holster with a replacement kydex body.

Left front pocket:
Spare extended mag for Kahr w/ Federal HST 147gr. 9mm +P JHPs
HKS Speed Loader w/ Speer Gold Dot .38 Special +P 135gr. JHPs

Right front pocket:
SOG Twitch XL Tanto knife
Cell phone

Also carry one nice pen and one disposable pen, a notepad, a Bic lighter, and a pack of Camel Lights. ;)

[Mr.510]

For starters, I wear Carhartt Work Dungarees literally ALL the time. They have a deep, narrow tool pocket on the side of each thigh. The gear I carry is always the same and it's always in the same places:

XD45 Compact w/Lasermax internal laser & 10+1 HST+P
Comp-Tac Minotaur IWB w/full forward cant @ 4:00
Carhartt 1-1/2" heavy leather belt
13 round mag with HST+P in LH thigh pocket
serrated Spyderco Civilian clipped to rear of RF pocket (vertical)
SOG Twitch 2 clipped to top of LF pocket (nearly horizontal)
Xenon flashlight in RH thigh pocket
car keys clipped to RF belt loop and tucked into "5th" pocket
wallet in LR pocket
cell phone w/camera in LF pocket
(RR pocket is useless due to canted IWB)

I think some may not have considered how important clipping your car keys to a belt loop could be. If you end up rolling around on the ground with an attacker(s) it's pretty easy to end up with whatever was in your pockets scattered all over the place. I want retention of my .45 1st, car keys 2nd, and cell phone 3rd. They can have the rest! :)

[cork 1]

KT P11 in a Triple K belt slide or IWB w/belt clip, no extra mag, if I can't do it with 11, i'm a dead man anyway!
CRKT folcer in front pocket.

[dbriannelson]

Being in California as well, I don't carry daily since I left the Marine Corps decades ago. But when I travel and my CCWs work it is one of these (usually the 351PD), mostly in a pocket but sometimes under a jacket in that El Paso Saddlery Street Combat holster:

http://fotog2.net/handguns/j-frames.jpg

Where open carry is legal and appropriate, it's this homemade rig with any of several N-Frame revolvers. A 629-1 is shown:

http://fotog2.net/handguns/629-1sb(b).jpg

The belt has shrunk, so I'm getting close to the last hole and I'll be buying, rather than making, a replacement.
