Superesse sends his carry ensemble for a river trip for today’s Pocket Dump of the Day from Everyday Carry.

A little guerilla marketing there, I guess. Because everyone needs a “Bug Out Bracelet.” And yes, it can be yours for $125 (follow the link). Plus $10.50 shipping.
I love the Beretta Model 84 .380 ACP. Unfortunately I don’t see a carry rig. Hopefully he has one. Even if it’s to throw into a dry bag if it’s a “wet” river trip.
I’ve got one of these 84s and it’s my “throw it on to go to the gas station for a moment” gun (with a DeSantis rig IIRC). Mine came from a guy who committed suicide (sad for him and his family). Using a different gun.
The trigger on mine feels like a toy gun. It feels like barely more than four pounds… and that’s double-action! It doesn’t like hard primers though. American ammo works just fine. S&B and some other European .380? Not so much.
With 13+1, it’s a great little gun. But then again, I romanticize it because I’ve wanted one since I was a teenager and when it came along a few years ago, I jumped on it and five extra magazines.
I see a lot of stuff there but no knife. That leaves me scratching my head. Knives are incredibly versatile for everything from utilitarian use, to rescue to self-defense. They do so much. And he’s got a $125 survival bracelet but no blade. Hmmm.
