So…it isn’t the HK P7 that takes center stage this time it’s the Big Black Book of Communism. If you’re thinking this is some sort of how-to guide, it isn’t. It’s a comprehensive work by a group of authors who wanted to get the truth about communism out there. The result was this book which […]

This GLOCK 27 has an extended magazine with an XGrip Magazine Sleeve over it for comfort’s sake. Yes, the Glock 27 is chambered in .40 S&W, and in my experience it’s an accurate little gun. Using an extended magazine is a good idea to improve your grip but it does make it more difficult to […]

Another one of the ever-popular GLOCK 43s along with a SOFTT-W tourniquet make up the high points of this pocket dump. It’s been awhile since we talked about tourniquets but I’ll keep this short and sweet. Do you carry a tourniquet? If not…why not?

Today’s pocket dump comes from Florida and features a Wilson Combat Protector Professional with a Surefire X300. WMLs – weapon mounted lights – are good idea on your carry gun if you know how to use them. Simply turning them on and shining the light all over the place is not a good way to […]

This pocket dump includes a GLOCK 43, a folding blade, and an Olight. The Olight is a 1000-lumen flashlight, but it’s a small one. Being smaller does make it easier to conceal, but does it also make it more difficult to use? What do you guys think? Should you – do  you – carry a […]

Although the pictured GLOCK has a Kydex holster here’s also a Vertx EDC Ready Backpack, a Maxpedition Organizer, and an Urban Medical Gear Advanced IFAK shown. The backpack contains a tourniquet and a Leatherman, among other things. It’s unclear whether the GLOCK is being carried on the owner’s belt or in the bag. If you […]

This pocket dump includes a GLOCK 43 with grip tape and a Kershaw Blur folding blade. The GLOCK is carried in a single-loop Kydex holster. How do you guys prefer your holsters? Single loop or two loops? A single can be great on a smaller-profile holster; a double typically means it’s a larger holster which […]

When you see a 9mm GLOCK in a pocket dump it’s usually a GLOCK 19. Sometimes a GLOCK 17. A “compact crossover” G45 is more unusual, but that’s what we have here. There are differences in size between the G17 and the G45 (although they’re not extreme). For example, the G17 has an overall length […]

Chet from Montana’s pocket dump includes a Glock 42 in a CYA Supply Co. holster, a Benchmade folder, and a Streamlight Protac. The Glock 42 has narrow strips of grip tape wrapped around it, which brings up this question: Do you cover your grips with something and if so do you cover the entire grip […]

This particular gun has popped up before in pocket dumps, but what interests me is actually the note the owner of the gun included: “As I came into my room and prepared to relax a bit, I removed these items from my pockets and thought to share them as they lay. I would’ve organized them, […]

The CZ-75 here is apparently the bedside carry for gun owner Richard. You might notice the condition of readiness of this gun. Is there one chambered? We don’t know for sure, although my guess would be no. How do you think a bedside self-defense gun should be stored, hammer down or cocked and locked? Do […]

This daily carry shows a Glock 19 with a few aftermarket additions including an RMR and a Streamlight WML with a laser. Here’s the question. Do you think this particular WML is enough for a carry gun since it has a laser or do you think the RMR is a good partner for it? Conversely, […]
