A Criminal Investigator and His S&W Model 442: Everyday Carry Pocket Dump of the Day

Big Todd, a criminal investigator from Tennessee sends us his “Working EDC” today.  Via Everyday Carry.

He writes:

This is my 9-5 EDC. I carry all of this everyday. Looks a little bulky but the belt loop organizer really frees up pocket space. Everything stays in the same place so I always find what I’m looking for on the first try.

How about that:  A S&W Model 442 revolver.  Yeah, I remember those days when S&W came out with a new revolver or three every month.  At one point, a retired cop gave me a poster with about a hundred S&W revolver models on it.  Yikes.

And then, twenty years later, revolver sales have fallen off a cliff and everyone’s shooting semi-autos.

Heck, I know some fairly serious gun owners (defined as having a dozen or more guns) who don’t even have a revolver.

And here’s Big Todd with a wheel gun and no reloads.  Hmmm.  He does have a Field Notes notebook and pen.  Along with a Leatherman tool (Signal model) for fixing things.

And I’ve got that same model of DeSantis holster, only for a Beretta 84.  It offers little in the way of retention when taking one’s pants down to change or visit the restroom for business.  Making lowering and hitching up one’s trousers a delicate operation.  One false move and Mr. Gun visits the pool.  No bueno.
