Learn how to FIGHT with your handgun at Rapid Response Pistol. Become empowered, skilled, and ready to defend with confidence!
Can't even finish watching this video
Two guns?! That’s crazy, why not three? Two in each ankle, and one in the waistband🤷🏻♂️
No one can tell you what you 'DON'T" need,a light on a edc pistol is always good to have
Kudos on carrying like a full Ifak! That’s crazy! I have some med a ifak on my gun belt and a bleed out kit for my bug bag
I don't carry medical gear becasue I'm not a male nurse!
If you have time to give a second person a pistol, your not in a gunfight! But if you do carry 2 pistols, they should share mags!
Love the Sapp where did you get it???
I like to add a pocket knife and a baton with my my kbar knife and pistol. Also flashlight all on my 511 cargo pants.
Cool
Great Glock 19!!!! -Greetings from The Netherlands (Europe)
16 minute video... but without the constant "uhhm's" it would only be 5 minutes LOL...
You got me there 😅
Had a teacher in high school said uh every uh other few uh words.
Great video! love your 19 setup OEM +, any reason no OC? I think for me it's a better medium than a knife for the weight personally I have keys to cut box tape.
Much appreciated! Yes, the reason (not a good reason) is I haven't gotten around to replacing my old can of OC. I think carrying a less lethal option is a really good idea.
While this is better than nothing it baffles me that police departments issue this for a duty light. Maybe for plain clothes roles but if it’s in a duty rig such as safariland 6000 series, Blackhawk T series, or alien gear rapid force you have nothing to lose with a full size full power light such as the x300 U/turbo or the TLR1 HL.
Better than nothing is accurate. I definitely agree, for a duty use case where you're carrying in an exposed holster, I see no reason to carry a compact light like this. Once you move to concealment with an inside the waistband holster, that's when priorities change.
Correct I carried a G17 with a TLR1 in a C6 from NSR for about 4 years and then a 5 inch M&p with the same light and same holster from NSR. I then carried a G34 with an X300 in a floodlight for about 2 years and now I’m back to a G17 without a light all appendix due to comfort and in a civilian context my tactician is more applicable than any WML for me. Context drives gear.
And for context I carried the same gun on and off duty due to training while I was still active.
@@travismcmillan564 ah, I see you are a man of culture as well 😅
I find the 5.11 jeans fit me better and last longer than the Vertx, but I have both. I just prefer the 5.11…
It's mostly personal preference, I just got very frustrated with how much money I was spending for a pair of jeans to only last 6-8 months.
Got some ridgecut pants last week. They are very comfortable but well see how they hold up being worked.
Nice set up. I carry a taurus .357 on my ankle and Glock 43x cross body. So those that say you shouldn’t carry two guns. Won’t have a back up when they get their first taken from them from not knowing how to use it and defend it correctly.
There are several good reasons for carrying a backup gun, although there are also good reasons not to. Check out the website, I'd love to get you in a class!
I would say nice dump but this was not a real dump. A dump is you put everything laid out, not put it back in your pocket after showing each item. Why? Memory retention. Seeing overview more satisfying than trying to remember what you showed us. Nice slapjack.
Thanks for watching!
EDC in a fanny pack across my shoulder, there you go.
You can carry a lot in a fanny pack, but it's not ideal for carrying a gun if you have a choice.
You confused me with the 2 front right pockets
I'm a man of mystery 🥸 I can't give away all my secrets...
Look in to the snake staff tqs I think they are the easiest to Carry carry one and the hip pocket of my vertex jeans and they are great
I've heard great things about those tourniquets, I just haven't ever used one myself. It might be nice, especially for the ankle kit, to be slightly more compact.
Awesome edc video
Thanks for watching!
You carry a spare mag is if the spare gun wasn’t enough😂 great video man
Thanks for watching! Like I said, I'm aware the part of me that wants more capability usually loses to the part that wants to be minimalist. 😅 In my mind the spare magazine fills a different role than the backup gun. Realistically I know that both have very low probability of ever being necessary. However, like I mentioned in the video, it's not likely you'll need a gun at all. So, by carrying a gun at all we're prepared for the unlikely emergency. We're not only considering the odds but also the stakes.
Ok, my two cents. Why not switch the shield out to a G26 for backup carry? Same manual of arms for your primary, magazine from 19 will run in 26, and it's a great ankle gun. The G26 will also work in many holsters for the 19. Second point. Have you thought about adding a couple small lock picks to your EDC? You carry a handcuff key presumably to defeat some locks if needed. A small tension tool and an Octo-Rake will take up less room then your lighter and be able to defeat many different types of locks. In a world of civil protests and riots the concept of being able to pass a lock that can be locked again behind me, creating space between me and a crowd, seems like a good idea. Cheap to pick up and you can become very proficient on a rainy weekend morning watching TH-cam, plus its addictive.
Thanks for watching! Glock 26 would be a fine ankle gun, although a little fatter and heavier. I owned the Shield first and it just became the backup when I got the Glock. It works fine so I didn't see a need to spend extra money to get another gun to fill a role that was already filled. The guns also operate 99% the same way so I'm not concerned about a consistency issue. I'm not opposed to having a set of lock picks, it's just not a skill I currently have (or any of the people I'm commonly with) so no point at the moment. I'd be interested in learning though!
When my Agency approved the carry of back up guns, I immediately started wearing a Glock subcompact in an ankle holster on the theory that the same manual of arms would help & in an emergency I could even use the spare magazines from my duty belt... But I quickly learned that weight is just as important a component as size & at the end of a 12 hour shift it felt like I had a boat anchor strapped to my leg. I ditched the Glock for back up & switched to a S&W Model 642 in an ankle holster & never looked back 👍👍 In fact, my Agency eventually adopted the Model 642 as standard issue for back up & off duty use.
@@jeffanon1772 The 642 is a beauty, classic. I carried one in a modified jacket pocket holster for many years. Always felt well protected.
@@jeffanon1772 The S&W 642 is a great choice. Weight is absolutely a concern for an ankle gun.
I wish there was more Tactical Response alumni making content. Some of the most relevant content and information out there. It’s amazing to find people with like mindsets and mentalities, as the only place I have found that is in training and the gun culture.
Thanks for watching! Maybe you're elected to make some of that content... 🤙
Maybe
An amazing edc! I read the description to the video and see you carry 147 grain in the Glock and 150 in the Smith and Wesson. I am new to firearms and actually just got my first 3 weeks ago. Currently running Hornady Black 124 grain out of my Canik Mete MC9. What is the reason you picked a higher grain?
I don't have a short answer so I'll give you the long answer. I used to be issued +P+ duty ammo which the Shield is not rated for, so I needed to pick a second ammo type for that gun. The 150 grain Federal HST was supposedly designed specifically to preform well in small guns (3.1" barrel for the Shield). I'm not sure how much of that is real or marketing hype but HST has a good reputation. The duty ammo then changed to the 147 grain Speer so I chose to use that in an effort for consistency/commonality.
@@RapidResponseTraining okay thank you. My canik has. 3.18 inch barrel to be exact and I’ve been told by my grandpa who also has guns and many years of experience as well as my dad to stick to the middle ground which 124 is. I was just curious but as long as it works for mine that’s all that matters. Thank you for the reply
I think your ammo is a fine choice. Glad to have you on the channel. I'd love to get you in a class, make sure to check out the website to see what training we offer!
Glad to see Tactical Response alumni keeping on with the legacy and delivering great content! Cheers from Brazil!
That obvious huh? 😅
@@RapidResponseTraining mindset (training for fighting and not shooting) and gear (nsr tactical and galco ankle glove) gave it away! Lol Subscribed!
Much appreciated sir. OSS!
