#edc #dutybelt
You just hurt a lot of feeing out in TH-cam land lol. Brings me tears of joy
😂🤣💯
Lmao true😂🤣
love your down to earth attitude in your video's Tommy, keep em coming!
The effective, yet simplistic way of having some key essentials carried during summertime is a concept I am coming around to more and more. Shedding pocket weight and tailoring upscale items or certain extra items only to special events and/or venues has not left me feeling unarmed or majorly unequipped. I'd say your carry choices work for me too.
Funny, my first thought on seeing all the gear was "That's not far off being an entire duty belt." Good video!
I thought the same thing lol😂
Konbien kob
Handcuffs and no handcuff key?🤔
You guys cops?
What's this, a common sense EDC setup? As always, we've got Tommy over here dropping some real information based on experience and reality. Congrats on the new property, gotta love AC!
Bought the leatherman with sheers. It replaced three different tools on the table and its more compact and comes with an attachable case.
Yep, the Raptor is nice.
I have the Gerber center drive. No need for shears if you have a knife.
I love how you started with loads of crap and narrowed it down to what you really carry👍🏼
I was the same way with flashlights. I’d keep one in my car next to me but I wouldn’t edc one. But I got a stream light macrostream, it’s cheap and so tiny I forget it’s there, and it’s crazy bright too. Basically like carrying a pocket knife. Now I have it with me everywhere. Highly highly recommend it if you’re looking for an light small enough to edc without noticing.
Super cool, because I've been anticipating if you would make an updated video on this. Excellent as always!
I am a KORE Fan. Love how it micro adjsuts so its very comfortable and rigid supporting my G19 owb 3oclock. Now I want that 1.75 version you have for range days.
" I'm not carrying a pouch around for a flashlight. That's kinda silly"
- A police officer
I carry my streamlight attached to my handcuff pouch. Works pretty well.
the only thing I carry off duty is my wallet badge and gun. literally it.
@@seanm8639 no knife or multi tool?
M
@@sworntoavenge Oh, the ASP Combos?
Thank you for your continued service. Thank you for the video. I carry the same things. The only thing I don't have is a good gun belt.
I love my 5.11 jeans. Not specifically for the edc concept but I love the side rifle Mag pouch pocket. I can put my cell phone in it and so I don’t sit on it or have it stupidly placed in my front pocket where I can’t pull it out while seated
Retiredb LE here and I must say your edc is my edc simple and plain no extra stuff just down to the nitty gritty
Right there with ya, brother. I'm a retired LEO and been toting various amounts of gear off-duty. Currently, its a Sig P365XL, spare mag, Kershaw folding knife, Streamlight stylus Pro, wallet (with my retired LE creds), G-Shock, and that all for on body. In my vehicle is full med kit, another spare mag for my pistol, multi-tools, BIC lighter, axe, hammer, 25' of steel chain, and my old Sheriff traffic vest in case of an active shooter event so I'm identifiable as a good guy. Great video. SS/WY6 out there.
If you are retired why would you have anything that identifies you as a cop sounds like a great way to get shot
Good moment for an update, thank you!
Check out Tulster Holsters. You might really like them. I switched from Vedder to Tuslter for the comfort and security.
Do you have any recommendations for a hydration pack with the safe life defense tactical carrier?
Wallet, phone, firearm for me. I don’t drive as much so I don’t count keys, rarely a spare mag bc I’m not getting into firefights or live in Fallujah. I’m always in town and don’t go out at night so no carrying a flashlight , literally 24:7 emergency care places all over the area I’m at(everyone is a nurse where I live) so I don’t need to carry medical kits on me, only reason I carry a phone is so I can look up prices to see if I can get some things cheaper online or for gps otherwise I’d ditch the phone
Knife?
@@francismartino6890 why a knife? You don’t need a knife. I no longer live and work in the Middle East, I am not gearing up for combat every time I leave my house. There is no need to be carrying all kinds of survival equipment, medical, knives , lights or any of that. If you do that’s your choice. I live in the US where society is still functioning. So a firearm, wallet , and maybe a phone. Some people watch way to much TH-cam of channels saying you “need” this or that. Why not question where they have their training , what are their qualifications to tell people what they should be carrying.
@@francismartino6890 you should see what people who actually have training carry, a lot of them don’t carry all of this nonsense. Unless society breaks down and there’s absolute chaos on the streets them I’ll carry all of that.
Pretty similar to my own edc. Sig 365, olight warrior pro, blue alpha gear belt, raven crest knife.
Nice! An hones edc. Some videos are just crazy with all that stuff everyone knows they don’t carry em all the time. My edc is similar to yours watch, phone wallet and my S&W BG 38. Really like your videos keep up the good work.
Again, pretty close to my choices Tommy! My usual pistol is either a G26 or S&W 40c with the 1911 safety, typically with one reload. Knife varies, I just got several razor sharp ones from the new gun shop here in town which are also feather weight and came in at $5 each. One went to the Sgt. Major for her purse that replaced a much heavier one, another to an EMT friend up in Canada, one went to my truck bag, another is for work, and the last my EDC. As to lights, I'm a geek, as you know, but I also find myself using my very basic cell phone more often than not now. Belt varies but I like Uncle Mike's nylon one if I'm in shorts or 5-11 type pants. Mask? Nope.
What a classic, truly timeless
Pretty much what I carry every day. I use a sling pouch, EDC bag, man purse - whatever you want to call it. In it I keep my badge, Glock 19 in a holster I sewed into an internal pocket, daily medication planner, folding knife, Flipside wallet (which I love), a duct tape wallet I made for my job IDs because for some reason SC thinks they need to give police grossly oversized IDs that don't fit into a standard wallet, a folding knife and that's pretty much it. I'm not out looking for trouble when I'm off. And I'm also not advertising what I do for a living because I always getting pulled into some BS like a lunatic at a restaurant or stupid legal questions or weirdos wanting to fight me, etc. Always. I keep it on the DL now. No more problems since then.
Amazing review tons of information!!
I'm a narcotics agent with Ceará (Brazil) State Police. Very reasonable EDC. Mine, because of my job (always waiting for something at the last minute), is a little bigger. But it is something like that!
I'm interested in your decision behind EDC'ing a revolver over a compact or sub compact semi-auto firearm.?
I don't even carry a Belt sometimes, I carry my gun in a holster with a Ulticlip.
I carry a folding karambit for my EDC and I also carry 2 flashlights so I don't have to turn on the light on my phone just for it to die quicker
I have the same EDC to go along with my board shorts and boat shoes.
I love full size pistols I carry a full size M&P 9 M2.0 and a M&P pocket knife
I have a question. Have you ever needed to use a concealed or open cart off duty
The coffee is also apart of he's survival kit 😂
I have two primary EDC Set-ups I use regularly depending on my situation. "The Prepper," which consists of a fixed-blade work knife, my wallet, watch, Beretta 92 and a small backpack full of supplies like my medical kit and a Life-Straw and much more. This set-up is my general EDC and I do use a lot of which I carry regularly with some "Just in Case" things. However, it is bulky and you can't carry it into a movie theater. Therefore, I was forced to adopt what I call my "Minimalist" set-up for times I know I will be going somewhere that is not "Bag of Supplies Friendly" and that set-up is simply a watch, a pocket-knife, my .38, and my wallet and cellphone.
I loved your comment about "Not needing to invade Iraq everyday." I feel that many of us get into that sort of scenario mindset when creating our EDC setups. I certainly did. I believe most of us veteran (Not Veteran as in ex-military or non-civilian) preppers have begun adopting more Minimalist set-ups as we now have the experience behind us of how often we needed to be prepared for the Zombie Apocalypse and how often having all of that gear just got in the way.
What are your thoughts on the pd360?
Obviously you trust it enough to carry it, Any other thoughts or comments on it?
My man stayed true to the J frame. I love that.
I have the same holster in the same color. Only thing mine is a g26.
You need to get the "clipdraw" for that Jframe. Game changer.
I think a lot of people who don’t have to wear a heavy vest and belt set up all day every working day don’t get the feeling of relief when you get to take all that stuff off and get into jeans and a hoodie when it’s all over. My only concession to pocket carry slightly worky type stuff is a pocketable flashlight and a couple pairs of nitrile gloves stuffed in my back pocket and only because for medical that weighs basically nothing and I forget they are even there. Other than that I just have a basic ifak in my to and from work bag on the off chance I come across something.
100% agree. I used to carry all sorts of gear in my to & from work pack until I realised I never used any of it. These days it's a flashlight, 3 pairs of disposable medical gloves, Israeli bandage, small vial of saline for wound cleaning and a torniquet, all because we get a fair amount of knife crime where I work. All the other kit stays in my work bag which I only ever have to carry from my desk to whatever car I sign out for the shift & back again.
For the sheers I cut a few pennies ahead of time for pocket carry. Sometimes dividing metal currency in the field isnt practical.
This actually made me lol
Where did you get the manual compass?
I carry a benchmade bugout it's best carry knife I've ever tried my main carry is a glock 19 in a t rex holster with spare mag I don't need much besides that I can get out of any situation if I have my gun and a couple mags .
Content , done well, informative entertaining
Simple and minimal. I usually carry a J frame as well and sometimes switch over to a Glock 43x or glock 29
The 43x is excellent
I wear Tapout shorts with a Cold Steel Luzon and Spartan in each pocket ready to deploy, a Gerber Ghoststrike on my ankle under my padded socks, Oakley spy glasses that can see behind me and turn Into a multi-tool, which turns into a holster for my full sized 45 with an extended 15 round mag that fits perfectly into my other padded tube sock......and a moonlight powered compass that is also a fire starter and converts to solar powered backup charger, I also have a pen that looks like toothbrush, but morphs into a karambit as well, waterproof matches, and a lighter that doubles as a Ham radio!
Seems like we are on the same page!
Could you make a video on what you do to Secure your new house
I believe if you carry something that makes holes have something that plug holes
That's cool which police equipment is your favorite? Mind are handcuffs they are the most iconic thing about a cop.
Thank you for the summer edition! I keep medical in my personal vehicle off-duty (JUST IN CASE). I'm normally not out of my vehicle too long when I'm out and about. I'm also in an extremely rural area so I can get away with open-carrying a full-size off-duty and dressing like an average joe and it doesn't raise any eye-brows but I WILL ADMIT it is much better to invest in something much less noticeable, something less heavy and cumbersome. I agree with your decision to not carry hand-cuffs off-duty as well. I'm not arresting shoplifters or on patrol off-duty but I WILL step in during a violent incident, off-duty we are still peace-keepers and peace-makers, not babysitters for non-violent scumbags.
Free Field Training: What's your opinion on truck-guns...? I see a lot of tacticool youtubers getting their 10" Ar's with folding brace and all their extra mags and gear and I do kind of laugh to myself....
I wouldn't ever due to the risk of it being stolen, the risk of someone getting in and finding it is far greater then the chance of having to use one in a defensive or apocalyptical event.
To have a Truck legal AR within reaching distance for a defensive encounter means it will be in plain view.... Don't do that.
My 2c, anyone else's?
Damn that coffee looks dark!! Heavy duty!! 👍
Hey what is that small knife you carry everyday please ?
Me seeing thumbnail. No way he EDC all that stuff. Ahhhhh you got me lol.
Super cool video !! So I’m interested in the small knife and the belt . If it’s possible can you share links to these Items? Thank you Advanced.
The coffee 🤣
Where did get that inner belt from?
You got me. 🍻 I was ready to unload on you for carrying all of that gear! Great video. I carry a J-Frame often.
No kidding, I was like...dude...NO ONE CARRIES ALL THAT OFF DUTY!! LOL...
Belt, Gun, Mini can of Sabre Red OC, Keys, and picket knife.
I happily splurged for a smartwatch like Garmin instead of the regular G-Shocks. Mainly for running
From the slurping of the coffee to tricking the tactical karens. Troll level 11 has been reached. :)
How hard is it to get pass the leo training
Where do you get your battons
You are speaking my language!
All besides the firearm, I have a full size Glock 19 and spare mag at all times, but that’s just because I’d hate to run out of ammo in a really bad situation. Other than that, I kept saying yes, yes, exactly! To every point you made. Lol
That being said, I am thinking of a small light revolver for gym shorts around the house or literally a mile down the road.
Here before someone comments on how every grown adult needs to carry around bat-a-rangs.
🤣🤣😭😭
What brand is the karambit
Thank you for Great Video Content
Good video as always.
Great video!
That’s all I carry. And if I’m going somewhere a little more sketchy, I will carry my Sig P226 and a spare mag.
DO YOU USE THOSE 18RD MEC-GAR MAGS FOR YOUR P226?
@@blackticalmayhem8461 I’m in California. So I could only carry the 10 round magazines. Sometimes I carry two spare magazines. I do have some Mec-Gar magazines and they function just like the factory magazines. So far, no reliability issues.
What fixed blade is that
For me I always carry a flashlight I have the security and police flashlight brand which is very nice and people always ask me why do you carry a flashlight and say you never know when you need it
I keep a pretty stocked first aid kit ( all the basics + meds, blood clot agent, a chest seal, nose bleed kit and Narcan just in case i need to help someone) in my vehicles with a flashlight, a spare quart of oil and a couple bottles of water but as far as EDC on my person, all I carry is a phone, Glock 43X with Shield Arms S15 mag and a Wilcox Tactical OTF knife. Thats it. No spare mags. There is no reason for people to carry a tourniquet, multiple knives + another multi tool, compass, lighter etc. Im pretty sure I'm not going to be playing 1st responder or doing land nav or taking on hordes of zombies that would require more than 15 rounds in my daily travels. I'm never far from my vehicle anyways and if I was concerned I'd just put a few more supplies in the car. I love this type of video though. It's always funny to see what people say they carry when the camera is rolling. Ive met quite a few people that have done videos like this at 1 point and then you see them in town with none of it or you ask them if they are packing and they say no.
This dued makes sure he gets his coffee in the video.
Your only missing the cape and the grappling hook gun
Love this channel
THAT VEDDER HOLSTER IS NICE!
Another excellent video that made my day👍👍😂
I carry my Colt compact 1991A1 45 ACP on my side with two mags, hand cuffs and that's it while off duty! My 45 mag has 8 rounds in it! That 38 snub nose revolver looks nice! Do you carry 2 speed loaders on your side off duty with your 38?!
For your EDC philosophy, I think you would love one of victoinox's alox models.🤔🤷
Respect bro, I carry a tourniquet and flashlight
Have you thought about adding in a speed loader? A little Safariland Comp I might be just the thing.
Statistically, no one reloads in a civilian gunfight.
Bro broooooo your off duty be off duty. Enjoy your life man. That was my first thought when I saw the thumbnail. Lol
KISS (Keep It Simple St--id) Great video...I can hear the masses screaming foul😆
Hey Tommy. Quick question. Would getting a job as a detention officer help with getting hired as a police officer later on? I have 2-3 years left of college & have the opportunity to work in the county jail. Thanks!
Some counties require working in the jail before working as a cop
Great video
Good video i just got that same gun belt.
Nice EDC dump. Im familiar with most of that gear but I want one of those core belts now.
These Kore gun belts are all business. Strong, stiff (especially the nylon) and well made. But they also look great. The buckles are extremely strong and the fastening system is rock solid. Nothing is going to fail at a critical moment on these belts. The instructions say to cut them to length with sharp scissors. Hahahaha- you'd better have some serious scissors for that. Broke the handles off 2 pair trying that. Use a sharp utility knife and a straight edge instead instead- you'll get a nice clean cut and your spouse won't be trying to stab you with her broken scissors...
I love this, nothing wrong with living your normal life!!!

Hello I am a big fan of you
I wish they sold those ankle kits still they don't ever have them on their site and all the other ones on finding I don't like as much as this one I've used several different ones over the years they were out of her while of course but always wanted to try this 1
Try skinny medic or warrior poet
@@stevejackson9952 I have there's but liked this one and wanted to give it a try
EDC rn for me? 2023?
Phone, Agent Baton (ASP, small baton, short) in pocket, Flip knife (10$ knife, durable), wallet & Cash depending on location, Firearm (Jframe revolver .38 special or glock 19 or other duty glock- full sized for maximum sketch).
Phone for phone use, videos, communication
ASP Baton (agent) for just having LTL option, window punch, general defense/poking stuff I dont wanna touch & for Part-time work where a knife isn't allowed but baton/spray is allowed.
flip knife for knife stuff and backup defense for whatever reason
Wallet/cash - Sometimes I dont carry cash in bad places.
Firearm of some time, depending on location/reason.
All this to say, I work armed security sometimes and sometimes you need just a gun, just spare mags and just a small baton/knife and your phone, wallet, jacket and clothes.
All that is super simple. Light weight compared to "duty" gear we wear for work.
I carry a Leatherman and a good flashlight on my belt.
If your already carrying a Leatherman on your belt, you might As well carry a flashlight next to it.
I've seen an EDC where a guy literally carries a SMG with him all the time. I feel your video was really realistic
jeesh i looked up the 360pd and found it being sold for over $800! cant for prices to get reasonable again
First thought when I saw the thumbnail was, ugh my back hurts just from seeing all that weight.
Get the lumintop aaa as a flashlight.
How did you get a left handed gen 3 17
THAT IS NOT A G17 IT IS A G21SF IS ON THE SIDE OF THE FRAME..THEY MADE SOME MODELS WITH AMBI-MAG RELEASES
@@blackticalmayhem8461 dude no need for caps
now I'm wondering what you carry in your personal car
Only thing I add in my car is a car kit (power tools for tire change, compact floor jack, cones, and tow straps) and a small med kit
Yo I have that bear claw knife and the other pocket knife I just don’t know how to spell it
My off duty carry is very similar
Keys bro, Keys.
