Joe Klotz from Wisconsin brings us today’s edition of the everyday pocket dump: HVAC service carry from Everyday Carry.
He writes: “My carry is mostly on my keychain to keep my pockets free.”
That’s a good point. If you pocket carry a gun like that S&W .380 Bodyguard in the MIC pocket holster he’s got, you can’t dump much of anything in the old pocket along with a gun or gun-related stuff or it gets in the way.
My old FBI buddy, now retired, says that on the FBI range, he’s seen more than one agent try to stuff a lipstick tube into an 870 along with spare rounds as part of a speed reload. I assume that’s a female agent, of course. But then again, I’ll cop to doing much the same with a tube of Chapstick, although I caught my error before anyone else did.
Don’t be too hard on female agents/cops! They facilitated reduced recoil 12 gauge slugs and buckshot. Something I certainly appreciate.
My other question: Where’s he keep his keys? Clipped to his belt or another pocket altogether?
I tried that same holster, I wasn’t a fan. Just didn’t fit my needs
A Sharpie on a keychain can (and has) resulted in a large black stain on the pocket.
*mutter*…
If you need to be mobile, flexible and have to lug tools, components and the like, a BG .380 makes mucho sense.

That Firebiner is pretty cool.
Easy, everyday, “always” stuff.
I like it when a realistic load-out sneaks into the usual carnival of fail on here.
