US Southern Command Challenge coin

Pipes aren't really carried on my person, but I have a nifty pouch that will carry a pipe, tobacco, lighter and tool that's always in my briefcase (work days) or the little backpack my famiyl calls the "Bat Belt" (weekends).
Always in those bags is a small "boo boo" first aid kit, a blowout trauma kit, spare lights, spare ammo, 100 mph tape, cable ties, some food bars, etc etc.

Tslex....my family calls my pack.......HIS MANPURSE! lol
How do you like that holster? Right now I use a Galco leather for my glock, its pretty universal though, ive carried a S&W and the ruger lc9 fits quiet nicely in there as well.

You guys do carry a lot of stuff around...how the hell do you keep track of it all. My everyday carry items are Pocket change, wallet, keys and knife. I do have a cell phone but you wont find it on my person after 5:00 pm.

 

[ohin3]

And Hobie is right...that stuff is awesome as far as lubricants go.

 

[matchstickman]

Hey bogie, I have that exact same travel pouch for my pipes. How do you like it?

 

[tslex]

@Bogie.
the holster is from this fellow: TT GUNLEATHER
I have been carrying it every day for three years in Miami heat and humidity and it is simply excellent. Hardly a mark on it, the retention is still perfect. I have trained hard with this holster, including retention drills with a blue gun, and it has held up perfectly. The guy is great value, and better turnaround time than many of the better known semi-custom guys.
I need a holster that is QD because I cannot carry into the courthouses. This one is unique in that it has double snaps on both flaps and it slides under and then over the belt -- so it is MUCH more secure in an attempted grab or a FUT than most QD holsters.
This is the only TT holster I have (the G19 is the gun I carry 360 days of the year) but i wouldn't hesitate to buy from them again -- assuming this thing ever ever needs replacing.

Cripes! I go to the woods for 2 weeks I take 2 pipes, few packs baccy, hatchet, light rifle, fishing string, hooks, pot, pan, coffee pot, cup, plate, fork, spoon, cold flour, crushed corn, coffee, 10x20 groundsheet, 2 blankets, hatchet, knife, few books, and one xtra set clothes.

 

[bogie]

Man i love the pipe pouch! Lots of times i had a spare for my dad to smoke with me because i always have pipes in the pouch with me. Its great and it didnt cost me all that much lol.

Well, my list of day-to-day essentials is not quite the same as my day to day carry around items. I actually travel quite light most of the time.
At work it is down to a can of OC spray, a handcuff key, restraints on certain duty posts, and an UZI "tactical pen".
I do utilize a Moleskine notebook, the one with one weeks worth of days on one side, and a note page on the other. Working 2 and even 3 jobs, and with a rotating schedule, I need something to keep my life in order, as well as take the basic notes I might need to recall in Federal court some day...
"Out and about"...
Cell phone, Solingen Cat Knife, Smith and Wesson 642, Bianchi speed strip. One of my Casio G-Shock watches; (Mudman or Solar-Atomic).
Getting ready to do some part time work in a Pawn Shop, so will likely bump the sidearm up to my Charter Arms Bulldog Pug.

But, that would be it.
I do have, in the truck, a Spetsnaz shovel and an SOG tomahawk. Both for utilitarian/emergency reasons, rather than zombie killing, although both would handle CQB rather handily, as well as a Smith .357 with 18 rounds of .38 Spcl. "FBI Loads". That stays in a locked and "locked down" metal box, for travel to and from work, as those are the regulations for carrying a personal firearm onto the unit.
