From the Country to the Hood with a 100-Year Belt: Everyday Carry Pocket Dump of the Day

Jonathan Bodiford, a warehouse manager in Godley, Texas sends his “From the Country to the Hood” ensemble.

I drive from a rural area into South Dallas for work. It is around an hour drive both ways. I need my gear to be able to work in both settings.

He packs a SIG P320…  a lot of gun.  With a Streamlight TLR-HL weaponlight.  And an extra magazine.  Maybe that’s for the “hood” part of his travels.

And check out that unusual Nitecore TUP flashlight.  Seems a little higher tech than I want/need in a light, but I’d be interested in hearing how well it works.

I looked at that belt and thought it was a department store belt that had a couple of weeks’ wear.  You know, the ones that start out looking nice and if you try to carry a gun and stuff with them, they look bad at the end of week one and start self-disassembling by the end of week two.  (That’s a fancy way to say “fall apart.”)

However, it’s a Hanks Legend belt warranted for 100 years.  That’s an impressive warranty.  I’ll just say that.

How many of you have bought a belt that didn’t hold up to the rigors of carrying a gun on your belt?  Lord knows I tried going cheap.  Once.
