In the crowded field of .380 ACP handguns, why would you pick the Springfield Armory 911 sub-compact over the GLOCK 42, a Smith & Wesson Bodyguard, a CW380 from Kahr, one of Ruger’s LC versions? Why a 911 over a S&W Shield EZ, a Colt Mustang, a SIG SAUER P238, a Bersa Thunder, or traveling back in concept, a Walther PPK/S? I’m not here to sell you […]
A GLOCK 27 and a Ruger LCP II make up this pocket dump. I’m guessing the G27 is the main carry and the LCP II is the BUG. This one makes me nostalgic because my first carry gun many years back was a 27. Yes, I know, it’s a .40 S&W and why would I […]
This pocket dump includes a Ruger LCP II, a .380 ACP pocket pistol that’s a vast improvement over its predecessor. From the grip to the trigger to the overall accuracy it’s a much better pistol. I’ve used mine as a BUG – back-up gun – from time to time. How many of you guys […]
Oh, my. It’s a Taurus Curve. Who here remembers when Taurus first launched their Curve concealed carry pistol? I know I do. The Curve was promoted for use by female shooters because the company said it would be easier to conceal with our natural…curves. Anyway, this Curve belongs to a guy – Arthur – who […]
A Smith & Wesson Bodyguard is front-and-center in this pocket dump. Other items include a tobacco box, a lighter, and a bike chain spinner. The Bodyguard is made for deep concealment with an overall empty weight of twelve ounces and a 2.75 inch barrel length. It’s chambered in .380 ACP, a cartridge with quite a […]
A Ruger LCP is the firearms portion of this EDC. John from South Carolina also has a Kershaw folding knife, a Gerber Crucial multi-tool, and a Nitecore light. Instead of debating the merits of .380 ACP as a main carry – because we’ve totally beaten that one to death – how about letting us know […]
This pocket dump includes a Ruger LCP and a blade. Given the recent .380 ACP debate I’d be curious to hear your thoughts on using one as your main carry. And if you do carry one, is it only for non-permissive environments or is it your daily carry?
Yes, there’s a gun in there, towards the back. It’s a Ruger LCP, one we’re all familiar with to some extent. There’s also a Leatherman, a Benchmade, and a light. But back to the LCP; my experience has been that it’s a reliable, relatively accurate gun and works well as a BUG or boot gun. […]
On January 30, 1948 a Hindu nationalist advocate by the name of Nathuram Godse secured his claim to infamy by carrying out an assassination. At 5:17 PM Godse used a Beretta M1934 he’d apparently stolen to shoot Indian independence leader Mahatma Gandhi in the chest – three times – point-blank. By doing this Godse sealed […]
College student Jacob says he carried these items “today” which makes me wonder…does he mean he carried on campus? And if so, is it one of those “gun-free zone” places (yeah it probably is)? Considering how gun-free zones are soft targets, it’s a Good Thing that he has his GLOCK 42 loaded with Underwood ammo.
This pocket dump includes a bike chain fidget spinner and a Leatherman Tread bracelet, the latter of which is designed for use as a multi-tool. The Smith and Wesson Bodyguard in .380 ACP is a DAO with a 6 +1 capacity.
Millions of Americans conceal carry a gun every day. And that number keeps growing. Unfortunately, fewer people carry a spare backup gun. Innovations in smaller, lighter guns firing potent cartridges, along with my training, have sold me on the idea of a backup gun. And should cause you to consider one as well. I remember […]
