When the weather is nice:
Para Ordnance P-14.45 with extra mag, both in Coyote Tan Serpa kit.


When the weather is crappy, or I need to "lighten the load":
Glock 36 with extra mag, both in Black Serpa kit.

Both are loaded with 230gr. Federal HydraShok .45acp in the summer, 230gr. Winchester PDX-1 .45acp in the winter.


All the time:
--2 wallets (big one has credit cards, cash, and "frequent shopper" type cards, the other, smaller wallet has my DL and CHP and various range passes--this one is usually in my shirt pocket...)

--iPhone

--Gerber Vallotton "assisted opening" folder

--Wenger Swiss Army Evo 88 (it has scissors, a bottle opener, and tweezers)

--VCDL "Challenge Coin"

--NC Gun Rights brochures

--4gig Thumb Drive (with various files--gun related, as well as resume and digital portfolio)

--Sometimes I also have a Gerber Suspension multi tool in my pocket, or on my belt, if I'm going to need quick access to various basic tools

My Chineese made 28" ASP (baton) expanded great, but kept going, falling into to two pieces. :uhoh: I have learned my lesson with Chineese made anything. I try to find Israeli made when possible.

i used to be a route salesman so i was getting a lot of drinks/food out of vending machines

and besides i rather use cash than plastic and i almost always have at LEAST 8$ in change in case of urgent need or i get caught short (and it practically makes a blackjack if things come to that)

What about What LOCATION do you carry?

Imagine you are standing in a clock facing 12, at what time on the clock do you carry?

With my fobous holster if im in a public place (like walmart) I carry between 2 or 230 or when I am just out and about I carry at 3.

What about you?

I only CCW. I never open carry.

I carry Glock 19 (9mm) when clothing permits. Else, I carry Ruger LCP (.380 auto). I just bought a new Glock 23 (.40 S/W) that I plan to carry after I have broken it is and ensure I can accurately shoot it.

I had to get a crimson laser grip for my LCP because it is very difficult to obtain sight picture with it.

I tend to carry the Glock 19 IWB at 4 o'clock. I carry the LCP in pocket holster either in front pants pocket or inside coat jacket pocket.
