John, a “retired doorkicker” from the free state of Indiana, offers his “Get Home Essentials” stuff. Courtesy of the good folks at Everyday Carry.
He writes this:
Not seen in my get home bag are my first aid kit, survival food bars (4-day supply), survival straw & spare water bottle, sanitary dude wipes (unscented), additional ammo for survival or barter, leatherman tool, and spare personal medication. The get-home-bag goes with me anytime I leave home.
And I thought I was prepared (JBoch’s 10-Pounds of EDC Goodness: Everyday Carry Pocket Dump of the Day)!
He carries a Springfield XD-M in a Fobus OWB holster. Along with the (Springfield Armory) factory dual mag pouches.
Now I know a lot of cops who carry, including some old school guys. This is the first I know who carries in a Fobus OWB for anything but range work. And even then, most cops I know carry their duty rig to build familiarity with the retention system release.
By the way, he has all that stuff and no flashlight/tactical light?
He does carry an extra box of Hornady Critical Defense Ammo.
