Your 2019 EDC

[cmgee67]

Post what your carrying this year. Do you think that it will change? Has it already?



I know there’s an EDC thread so if this needs removal Moderators go ahead!

Mine will not change. I carry a 1911 of some form along with at least 2 additional magazines as my EDC and a P938 as a BUG.

[Middle Age Russ]

M&P 9C (Not 2.0) + 17rd extra mag, or Walther PPS M2 + 7 and 8 round extra mags, or BodyGuard 380 plus two extra mags. Same as the last 8 or 9 years except for the PPS. I don't anticipate a change any time in the next decade or so, but who knows...

Same thing that i carried last year:
1. A 1911 of some flavor plus extra mag
2. Shield 9mm or LCR 9mm as BUG or DC
3. Ganzo G753 folding blade
4. Leatherman Signal multitool
5. Radix One wallet
6. A wooden comb

1. Glock 21 Gen 4
2. Glock 30 Gen 4
3. (2) spare Glock 21 magazines

I need to build out my IFAK, thanks for that reminder Montgomery. How do you carry yours? Back pack, fanny pack, glove box?

I use a Voodoo TQ with medical shears pouch MOLLE attached to a Condor Rip-Away EMT Lite pouch. Most of the time, it is with me MOLLE attached to my 5.11 MOAB 10 bag. When I do not have the backpack, I rip away and use the hook and loop to attach to a range bag or pistol case. Other times, I MOLLE attach to my belt at 6 o'clock or rip-away and use the carry handle.

Maratac trauma shears from County Comm and the IFAK contents from Rescue Essentials.

Looking at $150 all-in.

The specifics:

INSIDE POUCH
(2) Sharpie markers to write down time to keep track of Golden Hour.
(1) Celox-A
(1) H&H Combat Medic Reinforcement Tape
(1) Hyfin Vent Chest Seal Twin Pack (folded in half)
(1) Israeli T3 Bandage - 4"
(1) QuikClot Combat Gauze Z folded
(1) SWAT-T Tourniquet (to apply compression to cuts)
(1) Hypothermia Wrap blanket
(1) pair nitrile gloves

OUTSIDE POUCH
(1) SOFTT-W Gen 4 Tourniquet (primary TQ)
(1) Maratac Premium EMT Combat Trauma Shears

I purposely do not carry an ARS decompression needle, nasopharyngeal airway tube, or first aid items to treat cuts or burns.

I do highly recommend basic gunshot wound first aid training from a qualified instructor. Also highly recommend the Texas LS gunshot wound first aid book. It is chock full of full color photographs, organized by wound location, and has plain English step-by-step response plans. It is the best field guide I ever saw.

I am not a TCCC medic, but I have been to a rodeo a time or two. Hope this helps ...

Just retired my Hi-Power and Colt Mustang from my carry lineup and went with a Shield 9mm. Have an Alien Gear Cloak Tuck 2 or 3, On Your Six, leather pancake, Remora clipless and pocket holster so I can adapt it to what I am wearing.

It's amazing how much difference a pound makes when it comes to wearing a weapon. Gained 2 rounds also when I carry the extra mag.

Glad I made the switch. Wish I would have done is sooner.

My EDC is an iPhone 8+.

That other tool, though, is the same as it was in 18, 17, 16, and 15. I just don’t get to carry it every day.

I don’t know where you’re putting all that. You still look only about a buck eighty.

Carrying only wheel guns this year.

There's a thread about it.

Until I started having a few surface rusting issues, the old school M10 was probably my favorite to carry.

Right now it's the 586 L Comp instead.
