My holsters are usually new  in the thread but my M&P is very used lol. Rust, dirt and everything else. Although I did just clean my frame after a few years to try and get some of the crud out of my stippling.
Last weekend.

My EDC is the M&P but building the G17 up to split the role. I want to add a RMR to it in the future.

Based on the angle of the pictures I cant wrap my head around how the foam wedge helps the grip orientation.  You have other pics or can explain better?

If you push out on the front of the gun, the back of the gun (grip) tucks in.

I've been carrying (and making holsters) for 25 years. It's brilliant. Work it into a leather design and I'm in.

A lot of you guys carry way too much crap. More than I carry on my duty belt. I think it goes from being prepared to being masturbatory once you get to that point.
I'm going the other way. Carrying a bunch of crap all day sucks, especially IWB.  Here's my new, lean EDC. Literally everything I need and use in my day to day life.


S4 in Magpul case with ID and debit card tucked in.

No physical keys, bluetooth car and house locks. Quit carrying a knife because I just never used it.
Hopefully I'll survive my next trip to Kroger without an IFAK

I get your KISS principle.  I don't carry a tactical folder but I do carry my Swiss army knife (tweezers, scissors and toothpick are extremely handy day to day).  I also carry a flashlight.  It also gets used a lot.  I am glad your set up works for you that's what matters.  You shouldn't be implying others are mall ninjas for being able to carry a few more tools.  

On your reasoning.  You shouldn't be carrying a gun because it is odds wise it is the least likely to be used.  I carry a wallet and gun with reload plus a small knife and flashlight and cell phone.   It's not obtrusive at all to carry and I already have plenty of pocket space for it in just regular 5 pocket jeans.

Nice stippling.  Did you use any coating or is that just in the polymer?

 



I just bought some duplicolor bed liner as a base to stipple mine.  I love the A-grip but it doesnt fit anymore with how much i've reduced the backstrap.

I use both, I love the look and feel of my Core. I wore it in Afghanistan and has taken a beating and still functions as new, but...... I bought a Casio Pro-Trek, and I've hardly taken it off. The issue witht he Suunto is the battery life, with the Pro-Trek I don't have to worry about anything. So the Pro-Trek has my vote. Get a NATO strap with the adapters and your be set for life.

My "daily wear" for work is a GW7900B-1.  I like it, though it is a bit thick to wear under long sleeves.  I had a Suunto Core.  I liked the watch, but I wasn't crazy about the color combo I had (light green).  I may end up with another or a Vector.

Looks like this is the only pic I have:

Some folks are carrying a lot of stuff, other things seem necessary.  For example, chapstick, takes up virtually no space, and if you're somebody that needs it, you need it.   A flashlight really is almost a necessity, there are a lot of very bright, very small, (very cheap if you are willing to buy foreign manufacturerd).  A notebook slides into a rear pocket, and takes up no space and adds virtually no weight.  

Pepper spray is a good idea, but YMMV on weather it is worth the weight and size trade off.
Batteries and gloves I don't think need to be carried on your person, but that's just me.

Lifestyles differ. I won't judge the other guys choices.
I carry what I consider the basics: Firearm, reload, knife and flashlight, in addition to cash/cards, keys, etc.,.
The flashlight and extra magazine are carried in a combo pouch, opposite my holstered firearm. It actually balances the load a bit. I use all my gear daily, with the exception of the firearm. I do tend to carry a backpack to and from my truck to my residence, mostly to tote the other stuff you mentioned.

I use my flashlight all the time.  Once you start carrying one, you'll wonder how you ever made it without one.  I keep it in my back pocket beside my wallet.  I have to make notes on work orders and sign off on things a lot at work, so I always have a pen with me.  Chapstick takes up almost no space and weighs almost nothing.  Extra batteries, notebook(s), gloves, and that kind of stuff stay in my backpack.

Surefire E1L still running strong.

Ditched the keychain Letterman.

Went from the Kahr to a full size M&P9.
