      As if your life depended on it…

      Thanks for the reply. A couple of strong arguments for a revolver over a semi-auto. Exchange function and action over round capacity. Guess the extra rounds are worth it if it is jammed up.

      100% agree. I feel firearms are like shoes. Each one has its occasion. I like to carry a revolver in the summer under light clothing. Thank you for your add to the post and information.

      Just glad you are thinking ahead and are prepared to get where you want to be. I may add this to my vehicle. Would you elaborate on what type of items you have in your GHB?

      I like the creature comforts you include. One thing a lot of people forget about is their feet. Extra socks and comfortable, sturdy shoes can make a huge difference. I never leave the house in slides or flip flops. I want laced shoes or boots on my feet so I know I don’t slip if I have to react...

      You Sir are a role model! I also travel 40 miles one way for work but I have not walked any routes yet. I have driven alternate routes and have them mapped in my GPS. Your kingdom is your fortress and having it prepared is detrimental to survival. Thank you for your post. I hope other read it...

      Very nice. Adding a shotgun to the mix. What made you decide to carry a Glock being a 1911/S&W revolver aficionado?

      First person to bring up a vest. Chest rig, plate carrier (with or without plates), full kit? I did carry a chest rig with full combat load, zip ties, and IFAK for a while when our nation had so many human road blocks.

      I like it. Adding a rifle to the mix as a primary or secondary, depending on the situation, can make a huge difference. I have to ask, is you AR foldable or just have a bigger lock box?

      Carrying and shooting what is comfortable to the end user is always the best option. When I talk conceal carry, I don’t care if you carry a slingshot or spitball straw, as long as you can accurately and effectively engage and neutral your target and get home whole.

      Situational awareness. This is more than just having a view of the door at the restaurant. This encompasses being able to see, hear, and feel (emotion, vibe, tension) your surroundings. Also, just being prepared for what life throws at you is always a safe bet. The realistic problems can always...

      What made you choose to carry a revolver? Function, comforter, familiarity? I carry a snub nose revolver on occasion but I don’t like not having the capacity. I only carry the one revolver because I know I am accurate with it and it’s dependable.

      I like to see the first aid (other than just band aids). The pepper spray is a nice, non-lethal to carry. I have seen some carry batons, saps or brass knuckles.

      My grandpa had the same issue and finally went to a shoulder rig. Gave him a reason to start wearing vest. Another option is just wearing coveralls and a small derringer or 25 auto in the front pocket like the old timers. I guess coveralls might give you the same issues as suspenders though...

      That feeling of not be “helpless” is comforting while traveling or just going to the store. Knowing you have the means and capability to either self rescue, help someone else, or all out defend yourself speaks volumes.

      Thanks for the input. Why the chapstick? If it is for dry lips, ok. I have heard this from many others as part of their EDC essentials.

      Nothing wrong with the KISS method.

      As if your life depended on it…

      No one deserves to be belittled because of their opinion. That is why I posed the question because I was interested in different trains of thought. From my background, I plan to survive and attempt to be victorious to my last breath. I am also a believer in being “my brothers keeper”. I will...

      Yes I did have it and my pistol registration card. I will always follow the law, even as ridiculous as it may be. When I lived there, I applied, showed cause to carry and was permitted my right to carry a firearm. Being able to adjust to your environment is part of being prepared.

      As if your life depended on it…

      That is your right and your opinion. I don’t like to be firetrucked so I like to be prepared. It is my primary goal to protect myself and my family every time we walk out the door of our home and to also be prepared. This has saved my tail more than once. Driving through Buffalo New York and we...

      Question for the masses. This may have been a topic of discussion before but I do see a variance in age of this group. What is your EDC (firearm and items) that you absolutely don’t leave the house without. Maybe even your BOB (bug out bag) in your vehicle. I will start. EDC- currently carry a...
