Almost forgot...

I also carry with me (everywhere):

* iPhone in a military Otterbox Case
* 32oz Nalgene bottle
* Eco-Drive watch

No wonder I'm tired at the end of the day.

Dang. That is quite a bit. i would love to get an HK45. I shot my friend's a couple years ago and it is so smooth. Of course, I love HKs period and would love to get an HK USP .40, but the 45 is so comfortable for my hand also. *sigh* As an alternative, I've been eyeing the FNX .40, anyone have experience with those? I've read good reviews.

My current handguns are:

Glock 17
Glock 19
HK45 Compact Tactical
HK USP45
HK USP Compact 40
Les Bear Custom Carry
Les Baer SRP 1.5" Guarantee
Ruger LCP

I can't comment on the FNX, but I've read mixed reviews online. I've owned just about every other conceivable carry gun and I've narrowed my "I trust my life to this gun" down to primarily Glock and HK.

If I were you, I'd save for a HK45 or HK45C. Don't buy a HK45CT unless you plan on getting a suppressor. I bought the Tactical model because I wanted the extra barrel length (for added velocity) but the cost was $300 more than a standard Compact model.

Yea, I've been thinking about that. It's like i can afford an FNX now, but a USP or HK45 is just 400 dollars more. I hate being a poor student! Soon I'll be a working person. . . but still poor because of student loans!!!!

I wish I could carry to work (especially since it's my fault that trayvon got killed and now some groups are after me - I am federal law enforcement) but in my agencies wisdom I am not allowed to bring any weapons on base even though I ride around in a truck with a pistol, M16, and a shotgun. local law enforcement is allowed to and so are the marshals so I drive my 35 miles one way twice a day with less protection than I do at any other time in my live. but they care about us and that's why we are unarmed and under staffed, anyone who believes the government gives a rat's [censored] about them is sadly mistaken, they care about money and power and only do what they need to do too keep it.
sorry about the rant.
I have my XM, widgidoshi, a ronson blue flame light, a Zippo, my survival bracelet, festina 20ATM. divers watch and my XD45 on me today because its a day off.

ARCH! Glad to see you posting again. Hope you can stop by more often.

I'll try to come around more often.

Well my warm weather EDC is complete after this weekend when I got a steal of a deal on this little number.



So this is my summer load out as it stands right now.



The watch is a rotating piece. I have around 15 EDC watches that I change depending on what I am planing on doing that day, but they are all solar, kinetic, or automatic. The Zippo and Ronson are the same as the watches they rotate out.

Carry the knife my friend

My carry guns are a Ruger LCP and a Glock 17 that I reduced the grip to accept G19 mags. I think I like the modified G17 the best. My other EDC contents are mine and mine alone.

Two or three of these would be an easy addition.

I saw this some time back but forgot to post it up.

really good idea.

I carry a Jetbeam 1aa led light every day. It has high, med and low functions with strobe. When it finally gives up the ghost, or sooner, you never know, I think I might go to this.

I could live with just three brightness levels but 4 will work. Plus the strobe and sos modes could come in real handy.
