Your Everyday Gear
 
So... As I've gotten older, wiser, picked up a new vice (cigars), and better equipped to take care of certain situations, the other day I noticed my "everyday loadout" is getting a little obnoxious. So, I decided to post a pic of what I carry and ask my fellow Inmates...

Do y'all carry this much crap?!

There is one in the gun as well, so he is carrying 5 mags. I think that is perfectly reasonable.

If someone ever gets the drop on me, i'm not going down for lack of shooting back. That's where all the weight comes from, too. Each mag. holds 16 rounds. I actually forgot to add my backup gun to the pic.

Re: Your Everyday Gear
 
How the hell do you carry all that crap?

I go with a phone, wallet, keys, knife, and sometimes a pack of gum, and I'm with Scott, sometimes that's too much.

Thrak 02-19-2009 05:01 AM

Re: Your Everyday Gear
 
Lets see...

1 gun
1 wallet
1 checkbook (yeah a checkbook!)
1 work badge
1 parking card
1 knife
1 office keys
1 home/car keys
1 cell phone
1 work blackberry

I only carry the 1 mag thats in the gun. I figure if I cant solve a situation with 17 rounds, I'm doing something wrong lol.

We should chat sometime. Malfunctions happen, sir. You ever seen what happens to a mag if it takes just the right impact to the bottom of it? Or, in a double-feed situation, the best thing you can do it perform a failure drill and go back to work with mag. #2.

Re: Your Everyday Gear
 
Kind of a different thing but as I've been riding my bike everywhere lately I carry a different type of gear.

spare tube
small pump
multi tool
small adjustable wrench
two rear lights and one front
u-lock
sometimes a cable lock as well
two pairs of gloves
a balaclava
any books that I may need
laptop
all of which goes in my bag

and then
wallet
keys
cell phone

It is strange catfish as to the amount of paraphenlia that we carry. I agree!

Here's mine. I just added a push-button LED light to my key chain.

The braided black cord, shown in the shape of a "C" is a parachute cord (550 lb. test) wristband gifted to me by wolfgang. He also gifted me the handsome lokking Schrade knife. :D

The spyderco credit card knife on the right was gifted to me by JaKaach.

I love threads like this. It's always fascinated me to see what items others can't leave the house without. While I appreciate minimalism, there's also several things that I just feel naked without.

Some of you guys might be interested in this site. I've definitely taken inspiration from a few of these.
