So I'm going to make a quick video once my new bag arrives that I ordered. But in the mean time I am curious what y'all EDC and how you carry it. As a bonus if you dont mind including what you do for a living. Doesn't have to be specific if you dont want, can say desk job in 5 story building or whatever. I'm not asking what's in your BOB or GHB in your trunk or all that jazz. I'm curious what you have with you most of the time. If you were about to go to lunch during work what's with you type stuff.

I work in a prison, so I'm limited at work. SpidSpyd Manbug, Zippo, Space Pen, Pocket Calender, ID holder. Fenix EO5 on keys. Omega Seamaster.

When I get out though, Glock 26 or Walther PPS or Sig P238 depending on dress. Spyderco PM 2. Fenix LD22. Zippo. Wallet. Space pen. Pocket calender. Watch of the day. Like to switch it up. Phone. Can't have that in work. :(

I use to work at a friends dairy farm, switched jobs, now I'm buildings houses, we frame some and totally finish some
I carry a Smith & Wesson 642 Aireweight from when I wake up until I go to bed. It has been carried in my front right pants pocket for over seven years.
I like it so much I bought another one just in case something happens to this one and I bought a Smith 640, same gun but made out of stainless.

I use Hornady critical defense ammo in all of my carry guns because it is always available.

I open carry several different guns occasionally. Mostly revolvers, sometimes a 1911 or a glock. I have three glocks.

I want to buy a Rock Island Arms pistol in 22TCM. 9mm necked down to 22 caliber. I have their rifle in 22TCM, LOVE IT.

When I am actually home? Lately its the Glock 19, formerly the Shield, a nice pocket knife such as a Spyderco, Benchmade, or Zero Tolerance, a Leatherman and my trusty 500 lumen AA Zebralight. On the road I have to leave the guns behind unfortunately, I carry everything else, which I actually use daily.

A folding knife and fixed blade, bic lighter,cigs and dip. Sometimes a flashlight, titanium single knuckle bottle opener. Down South add a Glock 19 and 2 15round mags.
I work from home so when I do go out it's to the grocery store. I hate carrying a bunch of stuff on me most of which I never need. The weight and bulk isn't worth it to me. I can see why some people carry extra gear and bags. I just don't and don't feel I need to with my daily activities. Now if I'm hiking or going far from home ect I certainly have more gear with me.

If you don't mind my asking, what lockpicks? I have been thinking that would be a good skill to learn.

On my person, during the week at a desk job in the city, generally:

Phone
Keys
Wallet
Work ID's
Train pass
Cigs/lighter
Pen and paper
Handkerchief
Watch
2 oz can of Saber

I also have a bag under the desk which God forbid would let me walk the 50 or so miles back to my truck.

Do you let the prisoners clap your cheeks?

I work in manufacturing (3rd shift) so dont carry there.

But my EDC (subtract gun and ammo when at work)

Switch between CZ P-07 with RMR RM07 and Inforce APL (gen 2), and Glock 19 gen 4 with agency arms trigger and Inforce APL.

The glock still needs a bit more work done to it, mainly getting milled for an RMR. And really cant wait to throw away the Inforce APL and move on to a surefire x300u (1,000 lumens)

Both with the CZ and Glock carry a spare magazine.

Also Streamlight ProTac 2L-X and just some rando knife which I have been meaning to upgrade but honestly not in a rush since I never really use it for anything.

And then more importantly
SOFTT-Wide tourniquet
NAR compressed gauze
HemCon Chitogauze XR Pro
Twin Pack or Hyfin Vent compact chest seal
Benchmade 7 Hook
