Over at Everyday Carry, one can peruse what other people carry in their pockets on a daily basis. We feature one of those pocket dumps each and every evening right here at TTAG. It’s interesting to see how others approach packing – both a gun and other accessories for their daily lives. While you see […]
An EDC flashlight is one of the best pieces of gear you can carry, along with a decent pocket knife and/or a multitool. The basic features to look for in an EDC flashlight are durability, output (in lumens), and length of charge. In other words, get you one with a metal housing that can take […]
By Anner Remember the days of D-cell MagLites that doubled as batons? I doubt many carried one of those everyday, save Law Enforcement or utility workers. Most sat in a glovebox or toolbox until a flat tire on a rainy night provided them some attention. Thankfully, this bustling free market economy of ours generates outstanding […]
Let me state right off the bat: I am not a prepper. I’m an urban dweller who usually has a stash of ramen noodles, rice, tuna, and the like in my home because I’m half Vietnamese and having extra food stores is what we do. Obviously, I carry everyday and also have guns that work […]
You will get hurt at some point. It’s virtually inevitable. If not, it’ll be someone you’re with, and a hospital isn’t always right around the corner. It’s basic self-reliance, along with carrying a gun to save lives, to have the resources to plug a hole, stop the bleeding, prevent infection and control pain. Our bare […]
You can assume that if a knife can somehow be concealed in an otherwise unassuming pocket-sized object, someone’s selling it. By combining these remarkably sneaky knives, you could easily have upwards of ten separate blades on your person at all times. If you’re into that. The Gerber Zip Blade: $15 via Amazon Although some of […]
While the GLOCK 26 really isn’t the “baby GLOCK” any more — that title has since fallen to the G42 — it’s still a very packable, reliable, concealed carry gun that gives you 10+1 rounds of 9mm protection to carry on your appointed rounds.
Yes, we call these pocket dumps, and many of the items people display are carried in pockets. But the pistols usually aren’t. In this case, though, Derrick totes a Ruger LCP, a true pocket pistol if ever there was one. Slip one into a pocket holster and you’re good to go all day long without being […]
There’s no reason you have to spend a lot of money on a concealed carry gun. Pennsylvanian @variable2two packs a very affordable SCCY CPX-1 (see Foghorn’s review of the similar CPX-2 here). Long story short, a pretty good gun for not much cash. And who doesn’t like saving cash?
Summer time and the living’s easy. We’re not quite there yet, but the Memorial Day weekend is the unofficial start of the season. And with lighter weight clothing and higher temperatures, a concealed carrier’s thoughts turn to smaller, less encumbering gear. Mike A’s selected the ever-popular GLOCK 43 and one of Benchmade’s most popular knives. […]
Dalton’s a just-the-facts-ma’am, no nonsense kinda guy. How can you tell? Just look at his everyday carry gear. Nothing fancy, nothing ostentatious. But everything he carries does what it’s designed to do and does it exceedingly well. From the unassuming Gerber Shard OPMT hanging from his keychain (you never know when you’ll need to pop […]
Like a lot of guys, I wear dress pants to the office almost every day of the week (thank God for casual Fridays). I also carry a gun every day of the week. While I do have plenty of carry options, both IWB and OWB, for my guns, I often find myself utilizing pocket carry […]
