  • Let's see some EDC set-ups!

    My every day carry set-up has gone through some changes over the years, but it has always had the essentials. My pistol, at least one reload, an edged weapon for close quarters, and a flashlight if it is dark. I have been carrying my Kahr CW9 with a reload (soon to be 2 reloads), a Ka-Bar TDI large fixed blade knife, a SOG Sogzilla small knife modified with a wave cut for fast opening out of the pocket, a Ka-Bar Besh BOGA neck knife and a Streamlight Stylus Pro flashlight.



    What's yours?

    those flashlights are super bright.
    i am a mechanic and have had dozens of lights over the years.

    that light is great because you can drop it in oil and the o-ring seals keep it all out.
    that light sucks because when you use it 59 times a day the on/off switch is garbage.

    if you want a long lasting, super bright light that you use occasionally, that is a fantastic choice. the batt lasts forver, its drive a truck over it durable.

    if you are cool with a 35.00 light, thats a really good choice.

                What is this, you show me yours and I'll show you mine? You guys are taking the concealed out of concealed carry.

                  Not really ... it's just an old-fashioned show and tell.

                            Well, I'm just starting to carry again, so this is my first attempt to gear up. I'm on a low budget so I have to start small. My CW40 with the GripHugger rubber slip on grip, an inexpensive leather holster from ebay, and two spare seven round magazines. I've had that Kobaton since the early 80s. And I just picked up the Smith&Wesson knife at a NAPA store, it was under $20. I'm learning about knives so I thought this would be a good first (tactical) one. It's cheap materials (quite heavy) but sturdy and has many "tactical" features. I figure I can learn some basic handling skills, then move up to something better, like a Kershaw Blur, or a Benchmade Griptilion, maybe the Spyderco Tenacious.
                            I'm leaning towards AIWB and will probably be looking for a better holster soon (some nice ones in here). I haven't decided on how to carry the mags on my self yet. What's a good mag case (cheap)? I have a small camera case, I keep a sack full of loose rounds in it and there's room for the mags too. There's a pocket on it and I have a small flashlight and a Swiss army knife in there. That's in the center console of my truck, I can attach the whole case to my belt if I feel the need.
                            And finally, I hate carrying a billfold, mine stays in my truck. I thought about just slipping my license, permit, and credit cards in my phone case, any ideas on that?

                              I've apparently found what works for me since I've pretty much stuck with this set up for a few years now.



                              Only thing I've added is this for when I go to town.



                              And I throw this in if I'm suspecting trouble.



                              I don't go out much.
