Good comprehensive video on an often neglected subject. As a lifetime rider one thing I can tell you that wasn't mentioned, is to consider where you place your firearm. If possible, you do not want to place it directly over bone As the adage goes there are two kinds of motorcyclists, those that have crashed and those that are going to crash. If you can, you want to keep your firearm over soft areas so that if you end up rolling down the road it doesn't end up creating greater injuries. I strongly recommend against carry positions like small of the back. Think of what that chunk of steel is going to do to your back if you land on your back going down the road. It may not always be practical, but it's something else to think about.
Is was thinking the same. I had a gentle dump on a mini mag flash light/Leatherman tool combo holster. It was positioned at 4...luckily a little more ass than bone, but man I knew it afterwards.
I keep it on my hip against my butt cheek we're open carry now
My uncle was hit while riding and carrying. The doctor told him that if he had been ankle carrying like he normally did, we would have absolutely shattered that ankle and may have lost the foot. Luckily he had decided to hip carry that day. He's all fine now although that bike didn't make it due to the frame cracking
I ride sport bikes, and the best solution I've found is appendix. I switched to appendix anyway since it was way easier to conceal, especially with a bigger gun. I carry a Ruger Security 9, and with the right sized pants (best go one or two sizes up) it's not an issue, even in an aggressive riding position.
First video I’ve seen on this, awesome content. I ride with the same T1C sidecar rig that I always use but I’m also 6’3” 185. I have buddies that will just drop their holstered gun in the saddle bag and forget it so I’ll definitely send them this resource.
As a 71-year-old Harley rider, I find my leather vest with interior pockets on both sides is ideal. As said it the video, it's not too likely you'll have to shoot and ride at the same time. However, if I keep my gun on my right side, I could draw with my left hand in an emergency and at the very least put some fear into any attacker. I can wear the vest all the time, so no having to hang it on a restaurant chair back. By the way, some bikes have throttle minders or regular cruise control, so shooting right-handed while riding is not impossible.
I agree,, I've been on 2s for 50 years,,my vest also is the concealed carry vest, easy and simple,,good to see someone else that isn't a RUB on here,, stay safe, rubber side down, peace ✌
Smart move. I also use a 5 shot revolver, no complicated moving parts or flying brass.
Yes, a motorcycle is not an ideal shooting platform... You need an English SUV with Right Hand drive....or a war horse with ballistic barding...
Not everyone is into the weekend pirate regalia.
@@nokoolaid “what arrrrrr ye saying matey???”
A mesh jacket with armor in the summer for me every ride here in the Deep South. The tech is out there for year round safety and comfort. Yes, it will get a little warm at a stop light, but anything over walking speed let’s air right through.
Yep. Hell, my leather riding jacket has enough ventilation that it's comfortable in the summer in central Texas. If a person wants to be safe, there are options. So I suspect that a person who opts out of wearing motorcycle safety gear for comfort is pretty likely to not be all that concerned with firearm safety anyway.
What about conceal carry while single track dirt bike riding? You could be way out in the mountains by yourself and or a group and i would really like to carry my woods gun for protection from Grizzly, wolfs and mountain lions. The thing is that you do fall down and crash every now and then. I thought about rigging a holster with a securing strap to my chest back pack straps but is that safe or?
I carry a compact high capacity 9mm as my edc. I got lucky and found a vest with inside concealment pockets that work really well when I'm carrying on my bike.
If your shirt blows up and exposes the gun you're carrying on your waist (fixed the spelling), you're not properly dressed for riding a motorcycle. Go home and put on proper gear.
*waist
I also agree with what you said. If you’re not wearing proper gear if your shirt blows up.
@@bryanbrown3873 You're correct. I got in a hurry.
@@rangersmith4652 I was born a smart ass and just got bigger couldn’t help it 🤣
What is proper gear for riding? For me, its jeans, a t-shirt, a ball cap, and a pair of shades. For crotch rocket guys it might be anything from full leathers down to shorts and flip flops.
Very useful video, especially the information about if you end up in the hospital and protocols for handling the gun with medical Care around the 5 minute mark. Thank you
I carry appendix and don't really have to change anything, besides pulling my belt up a little. I have cruiser and sporty and no issues in either position.
I use an Urban Carry holster. Since the gun is riding on your quads, it is totally concealed and comfortable for all day riding.
I carry at 4 0clock iwb, have leather on and no problem getting to it if I need. I wear gloves and practice with them at the range so I get used to the clunkyness of having them on.
Nice vid. Keep up the great work.
Even if you’re not drawing while riding, better chance at gas station or red light or some close space you can’t move from while having gloves on. Good point to bring up about practice draw and shooting with gloves on
I got a nee pair of gloves for the reason my old ones were just too thick for me to get good repeatable and reliable draw and shots
I carry while riding and it doesn't change anything about how I drive or dress. Quick easy access is key. You won't be shooting while moving.
Definitely,,,, if I have to “drop my ride “ it better be for a good reason!!!
Thank you been riding quite a while but always have been leery about carrying concealed. Yes have CCWP so this was helpful...many thanks. PS am a USCCA member.
I got a belly band holster.
In my 50 years of pistol and handgun shooting, this type of holster is
the most comfortable I ever have had.
It's wide and adjusts to your appendix to armpit and under 15 bucks!
Only way I carry now!
I’ve found to be the best is under my tank bag . I have a ktm tank bag mounted to my tank it has a section that ties to the bike allowing the actual bag to come off by zipper . I stash my edc weapon between the bag and mount as it’s cordura against my tank gives me easy access if needed in a rush just unzip & grab . Also makes easy access when I get to my destination to holster to go about my day .
Just passed 35,000 miles and 5 years of riding with the same Sneaky Pete on my hip. Never once had a single person comment or mention it. Bars, parades, walked right past police, countless rallies and parks and campgrounds. Zero issues and I wear what I want. Love my setup.
it's like you guys are psychic, I keep having these questions and I just see a video from you a few hours later addressing my very question every time
I have a few comfortable sleeveless shirts with elastic 'holster and mag pockets' built in under each of the arms. Have to wear another shirt to cover it, but this doesn't work great when it's hot weather. Carry a small 380 in my pocket when it's hot. Thanks for sharing the video, we all learn through discussions/comments.
Purpose built concealment fanny pack. I’ve used them for years and they’ve checked every box a CCW rider should be concerned about. With a quality one they’re much more comfortable to ride with and crash with (Damhik). Plus your firearm will always be concealed and never fall out. If you’re more concerned with fashion than firearm safety it might be best to leave it home.
For the ATGATT crew, shoulder holster/chest rig makes perfect sense
ATGATT with a Gat is best ATGATT… or would that be considered “ATGATT+P”
My ride is an old one, left-hand jockey shift, left foot suicide clutch, and most important a deadman throttle that stays where you set it, which leaves your right hand free to do other things.
I do it.
I carry between appendix and 12-o'lock on a sporty bike; right in the middle. I think it helps that I am lean and my belly doesn't hang over my belt.
Anyone that takes their motorcycle safety serious knows that what you wear in your car is going to be very different that on your bike. A real challenge is for those that wear a full riding suit. I carry appendix and its definitely not the ideal situation for a riding suit.
And inside the suit cannot be reached. I love my aerostich suit. Access to my IWB is, well, limited. Same for shoulder rig.
Finally!!! A video on this. I'm not even in the country but appreciate the video. Safe ride in all accord
I carry a G19 AIWB in a Bravo Concealment holster when I ride, this is also my normal carry position and holster.
Question, what if you were on a sling shot, a quad runner, or a go cart, what would you do different, or the same.???
I have never known any police officer, from any department from my state, to lock up his duty gear, while on duty when using the restroom. That would go against some department's policy and procedures. Some motorcycles do have cruise control that allow you to fire when riding. I was taught in the academy the importance of being able to shoot with your non-dominant hand and other defensive shooting tactics from the 1985 Miami FBI shoot out (A recommended case study). Also, in IPSC and IDPA non-dominant course of fire scenarios are used to help prepare you in case you are unable to use your dominant hand. My first physical exam to be hired for a law enforcement agency was that you had to be able to pull the trigger on anon loaded revolver with both hands. I thought how silly, then to my surprise there were candidates who could not do it. From my experience, Motor officers are trained to shoot while riding. An active shooter is not going to wait for you to park your bike and get off. Be safe
Turn the holster inside out so you can cross draw with your left hand while you operate the throttle with your right
I find that open carry with right calf/ankle holster is best while riding. 9mm SIG. Then conceal pocket or ankle once at destination.
I like how he says you won't ever shoot while riding when there was literally just a shooting where two guys shot at each other while riding in Florida. I use a shoulder holster and have been debating on getting a pocket 380 for my left pocket so could draw right or left handed.
I carry 2, one on left side one on right. Learned this from gun class with a swat officer. And he made us shoot with both hands.
Ya, but Florida is to expect the unexpected
You can draw off handed from most shoulder holsters.
Ended up getting a keltec p32 for my pocket pistol. Love it and my walther
In warm weather I wear a blue jean vest in the summer with my Glock 26 in a Glock OWB holster, that works great and I have the quickest access to the gun.
Depending on weather, the location or even model of motorcycle get an underarm Holster carry your main Side Arm and have a easy access secondary in the same calibre somewhere on the Motorcycle in a discreet place you know of and can get to or wear a calf high boot you can put into an ankle holster given seated on a motorcycle it be easy to reach into the boot draw and use.
I have a CPL, but also live in an open carry state.
I'm 6'4"@ 275 lbs.
An IWB is bi&#ch enough, but long distance riding is a no go.
I use a thigh style holster from Alien gear that allows me to set the camphor to the right angle..to boot I'm left handed
Works for me.
great video, lots of very good points made! I carry on my right hip at about the 4:30-5ish, and my concern while riding has always been how the gun will impact my body if I go down - falling onto a metal or hard polymer brick sounds painful, but where I'm really concerned is how that might actually cause extensive damage, such as breaking my pelvis or causing internal organ damage (like with appendix carry). Anybody have any thoughts on this or insight to share?
Need a holster that can strap to the handlebars or fairing. Alien gear probably has something. It ain't going to be concealed though.
I used a vertical shoulder holster with an extra safety strap.
Many states allow open carry. You may draw unwanted attention from a left leaning cop or a bliss-ninny Karen, but here in eastern TN, the odds of that are very slim. Also, check out the Sneaky Pete holsters. They're worn like an open carry holster, but they conceal the handgun.
I have thought about the if you get in an accident part... I would like to think all emergency medical personnel are trained on removing a cc from a person who is injured or unconscious. It probably varies by state. 🤔
Great video, lots of variables to consider, but whatever works works right?
When your on your bike the car always wins. Even a Smart Car wins over the biggest full dresser bike. If you pull your pistol when you're still on your bike you most likely are going to get knocked off your bike. You may get off a couple of rounds but you're still going to get ran over. Avoid vehicles period when you see that they're being operated by idiots. Don't get butt hurt and act like a Karen, just get out and ride. Be the better person.
But there aren't many cars that can keep up with a bike. Pop a mirror and take off.
@gothael1 well if someone starts swerving at me or otherwise trying to knock me off my bike, I'm not gonna try getting in a gun fight with them. Make em eat 500-1000 bucks and be gone. They'll be thinking about their actions after shelling out the deductible and waiting 2 weeks for their car to get out of the shop.
@893 R6
I once filtered up at a stoplight and gently folded an driver’s side SUV mirror that almost squished me. When she put down her phone and asked what I did that for, I just said “You weren’t using it when you almost killed me back there so I just thought I’d get it out of your way”. When the light turned green I took off with most of the other cages and she just sat there stunned. Point made without creating a cager rager that might murder the next rider. You know, ambassador stuff.
Thank you very much
I stopped being concerned about concealment a long time ago. Open carry is legal around here. A good OTW level 2 retention holster at 3 o'clock works no matter what I am in/on. No off body carry, no locking in the saddlebag.
Open carry makes you a target for thugs, and much more dangerous a target for stupid pigs, and there are a lot of stupid pigs who have killed patriots for exercising their Constitutional Rights.
I've had to use my ccw 4 times to protect me and my property......I've had to use my open carry 0 times. Been put in handcuffs 17 times (no charges just precautions) due to my concealed.....had countless cops ask about and comment on my open carry. Your attitude makes you a target not your weapon.
@@busybeans87 I live in Fly Over Country. Cops could never possibly handcuff everyone carrying guns here. Literally 30% of the population has a gun on them. Anyone one of those 17 times you were detained could have been your death.
But that's when I was carrying concealed...not open carry
@@busybeans87 Something seriously wrong with you if you were cuffed 17 times even in a Liberal state.... Were you pulling your gun on people?
Versacarry has a good inside the pants holster. They almost always have sales and are built well. Theis is also good but a little more expensive. You can always tuck your tshirt inside the belt clip to anchor it better. Or wear a jacket as you should
Versacarry has a 5 day handling period…that means they wait 5 days to even process your order and then you have to wait the additional shipping days.
Yep that’s true
A truck hit me last month while I was riding, I was carrying in my backpack and my rear sights got pushed over pretty far due to impact. I constantly ask myself if I would be further injured because of my firearm if it were on my person
Thank you...
I open carry my 357 686 in my nice leather holster when I’m on my bike. Then I throw my 38 special in my vest pocket on my left side. My Kbar is a nice addition also.
If you open carry I would avoid being close to you. You are everybody's No1 target.
@@barendfourie6687 I wouldn’t want you riding next to me. Chicken.
Two words ... "Gun pocket". Of course I am in an MC and when I ride I have my colors on.
okay, this is irrelevant to the video but...yesterday my uncle and I talked about brandishing and stuff, and mentioned that motorcycles gets a lil wierd, and this comes up 😂💯🔥
If you're going to ride and carry, think about what happens if you fall on it. Once I fell on my wallet (inside jacket pocket) while snow skiing. I never got around to getting x-rayed, but it sure felt like I broke a rib. I can't imagine how much fun it would be to fall on something in a shoulder or small of back rig.
Amazing content as always!
Thank 🙏
Anyone know a good level 2 retention owb holster for full size 1911?
I carry a 38 revolver in outside left jacket pocket,incase of running and gunning,carry 40 caliber glock in saddle bag for the serious stuff,i shoot a pistol right or left handed
My Harley is my only vehicle. I carry shoulder, and my backup carry is small of back IWB.
I found a gun in the middle of the street yesterday. Loaded and holstered. I assume it belonged to a fellow rider. I hope he sees this video...
If the serial number is still on it and it is registered then you should be able to find them or drop it off at your local police station
@@mp6640 yeah I already dropped it off to my local station. That’s the first thing I did.
Good man 👍🏽
Don't post this my guy...it'll end up on the news and show how "irresponsible" legal firearm owners are.
@@thamomentum maybe people should actually _be_ responsible.
I have two choices when I ride my motorcycle. One, little 380 with a clip in the vest pocket, or I use a Sneaky Pete and carry a compact 9mm. Preferer the 9mm over the 380 anyway but I never hear anyone bring up the Sneaky Pete for congealed carry.
yep i also use sneaky pete everyday and everywhere I go
I use a desantis ankle holster everyday. Work, truck, or motorcycle. It is a slower draw when needed, but if I have to be Doc Holiday or Cole Thornton on the draw I am probably gonna loose anyway. It is secure & only visible when it needs to be.
I was hoping someone in the comments would mention ankle carry. I use the same setup and it's very comfortable!
Does it bother your ankle pressing against the motorcycle?
It doesn't press against bike. Just got to make sure when putting feet down it doesn't catch the floorboard.
@@chrisbrake7219 Good tip. I may go see how my ankle holster interacts with my boot right now.
As long distance biker myself. Sometimes doing as much as 3,000 miles and one ride. The U koala bags are very very good. The woman who designed them designed them to handle a gun. The bags are worth every single penny to pay for them they hold up to.
Realistically a sawed off pistol grip shotgun, holstered on the side of the tank or on top of the tank, can be fired with an off hand and a wider spread making it easier to hit the target while moving and not worrying about over penetration.
So glad I’m lefty. Only time it’s a good thing!
Be sure you are spending some of your range time training with both your helmet and gloves on. Depending on the situation you may not have time to remove your helmet and/or gloves before drawing your weapon.
You are right. I decided during warm weather to stop wearing gloves. That at least removes one barrier.
One thing I’m glad for in Missouri is open carry is legal so if my cover garment fails to cover my firearm it really doesn’t concern me I understand in some states that’s not the Case though
Good job sir thank you
Thanks for the support 🙏
One strategy I have considered is to have a metal locking holster that I made bolted in the handlebar/ferring area where it could be drawn by either the left or right hand. Right hand drawn when at stop lights and left hand draw while moving. Being buried in the handlebar area it would be fairly unnoticeable. My biggest worry though is forgetting to take it with me when going in to stores or paying for gas etc. This is why I have not implemented this idea yet. In case you are interested in the two metal holsters I made feel free to view two videos I made on locking holsters.
Excellent video well done
Question for everyone who is smarter than me: what are your thoughts on using an ankle holster while riding?
As long as your pant leg isn't going to get blown up to reveal it, it seems a position worth considering, but I am new to the concealed carry life and I figure others have tried this before and have some valuable feedback I can learn from before I purchase the holster.
If you ride a lot, practice left handed, a lot. Personally I wear a vest and a dual holster shoulder rig.
Every freedom loving American needs to be subscribed to this channel
Thanks for the support Adam!
As a left handed shooter, I never knew this power I possessed
Wearing a cut with conceal carry pockets helps big time I can carry 2 guns and 1 nobody knows and 2 it’s comfortable
Too much emphasis on accidentally exposing the firearm. If you go down, the firearm you're concealing on your person could greatly exacerbate your injuries when you land on it. Off-body carry is better, but it means an entirely different set of criteria come into play, as in not leaving your gun on the bike when you park.
Yep. Also the chance for your firearm to go flying out into the wilderness or over a jersey barrier.
I have on my Freewheeler in the trunk a good safe that the cable goes through the back in side to a frame point. And when I was on two wheels I had one in my bike trunk or in a saddle bag. I live and mostly ride in open carry states but don't need the trouble if someone cries wofe. So long trips I just put my edc in the trunk and have a NAR s on my side in 22 mag. As its my EDC here on the farm on my left side with my 9 on my right I am use to it being there. I have custom holsters that ride a little bit high but use to them. It gets hot here and all across this area off I 40 AZ,NM,TX,OKLA. So there is some days I do just a tee with vest. I can pull the tee under my NAR and it stays out of site. I fugue that if anything happens it's going to be at a gas pump or light. So first shot is snake shot. Placement. It's set up for green rattlesnakes at here. Keep safe. Be safe.
I understand what you're saying, but I have to disagree about the gun exacerbating the injury. The gun may very well be destroyed upon impact, and losing it is also a possibility, but unless it's against your spine and you go down right on it, you've got bigger concerns at that point. Not speaking hypotheticals, this is from responding to numerous crashes involving riders with a gun, and that includes when they walk away and fatalities. In those, the firearm was never a factor in the mechanism of injury.
@@RIPbiker13 Thankfully I've never been involved in such incidents, so I defer to your experience. I'm still going to carry off body if I go riding.
Wish there was more solution in this video. You could actually show the various things you mention and show them how they would be in normal use. I would say get a Ranger Bag and you can probably put it on over your gear and have quick access to your gun if it is needed. Try to not make people angry so they want to harm you. There are those who might be looking for a fight but I haven't found any in 20 years of riding hopefully my luck will continue because with today's sue the pants off the guy trying to protect himself when the guy starts something with a biker and pulls a weapon and gets shot I don't want to have to go through that and loose my life savings when some jury makes ME the bad guy
I carry on my Cbr1000rr sometimes being that it's a super sport and the riding position is very aggressive, then add on the fact that I carry a full size 1911 (I guess because I'm just a gluten for punishment). The most comfortable way is to put it in the inside left pocket of my jacket. When I have gone to a restaurant I always go to the bathroom first wiel still wearing the jacket and then once more after paying the tab. I've found its best to figure out the most comfortable way to carry and then work out the rest around that. Think about carrying like always having a infant with you it's always going to be a little inconvenience for the price of safety.
Ps. My bike is fast enough that if anything happens on the road I just ride away like you said the only times of concern are at stab and grab gas stations.
I ride a 1000RR as well, and have been struggling a bit with conceal carrying.
I've just been open carrying on my bike because of the fit of my riding gear. Then just pull my shirt over when I get to my destination.
@@AlcatrazP226 whatever works for you. I should add however I use to carry on my CBR lol. I hit a deer at the end of May on it. I had my 9mm on me this time and fortunately because it was in my jacket it was undamaged.
Throttle Friction Lock frees up the right hand.
if you don't have to defend yourself while riding, how about an ankle holster, either side, those pant clips to your boots should hold it concealed, but crashing and rolling on the ground may hurt more than road rash, breaking your ankle. just a thought.
Could you do a video on carrying in a semi?
Hell man, with a semi just mount a 20mm cannon.
I carry also while riding but I do have the issue of not being able to put it where I want to . And I cannot find a comfortable holster for riding . ::RIDE ON""
Thanks great información.joe
guns and motorcycles. 2 of my favorite things...
Looking forward to this video
Thanks for the support 🙏
good video Kevin
Thanks for the support, David!
Now I'm going to have to drive down and old country road and practice riding, twisting the throttle and shooting at the same time! 🤣
Speed and Strength Quick and The Dead Vest G26 2 extra mags
Some motorcycles have cruise control And also a lot of bikers will have concealed pocket in their coat or vest
My 1973 Harley FL Police Special had hand shift and foot clutch so an officer could palm the shifter while holding a pistol.
As a motorcyclist for 45 years i find it not needed to carry ,I RIDE TO DESTRESS NOT TO WORRY
Would be good to cover (I bet you have already) carry where concealed is not legal or possible, and the firearm must be "separated" from the operator.
Score one for the lefties like myself. Owb, 8-9oclock, long shirt. If it shows I'm not terribly concerned, especially when driving. If someone does see it just shows I'm a hard target, and the ones to notice are the people who are looking, God or bad makes no difference IMHO
I am more worried about carring in a way that I am the least likely to land on it when I go down, or its least likely to cause more injery if I do fall on it. I dont really care if someone sees it, and I live where I dont have to. Hitting the pavement hurts bad enough without the pavement shoving a gun thriugh your ribs, or in to your kidneys. Not that there are great options, but right over vidal organs would not be my first choice.
When I ride I use a Sticky Holster inside my right hip with shirt covering it and tucked behind my belt. The gun is completely hidden with this method. Now, if I don't do this my shirt blow up my back and chest exposing the gun.
What about open carry on a motorcycle without a concealed carry permit? Illegal? What about open carry on a non- motorized bicycle? What about open carry of a homemade pistol since registering it isn't required?
Good video. Would have been better if examples were shown.
I have actually had a motorcycle accident while carrying concealed. Laid the bike down while slowing for a Fire Rescue vehicle coming from the right. Bike slid 150 feet, I slid 100 feet. Gun slid out of holster and a Rescue member picked it up and asked me what to do with it. I lucked out, the station they came from was just 200 feet down the road, one of the Rescue people rode a Harley and moved my bike there for me and locked pistol in tour pack and held my keys for one of my nieces to get when they had AAA come pick up my bike and take it home for me. I live in PB county in Florida, had a permit so no issues there. PB Deputy came to hospital to verify my permit and again no issues. Florida aka the Gunshine state, is very accommodating to legal permit holders. I was riding at the posted speed, but erred riding in the middle of the road, it was damp at 0630 and I didn't notice till too late. I know the Rescue people may believe it might have been their fault, they aer not used to people actually slowing down for them. They came over to me to assist, but could not take me, they already had someone in the back, but waited for 2nd Rescue to pick me up. Props to PBC Fire/Rescue for their professionalism and to PBSO for their respect also. Already a member of USCCA, so there's that.
Had a Beretta 22 in my right front pocket when I went down and hit a fence. Fractured the hip a bit at that location - steel onto bone, steel wins. Dont wanna do that again. Now I wear an IWB for a sidearm at the 4 o'clock position.
In the late 80s I was stopped while riding when I lived in Arizona because of being in possession of a concealed weapon because I had my pistol under my vest, but when I asked the cop how he knew, he said that he could see the barrel hanging out from under my vest, he then looked at me laughed said okay, but wear it out side of the vest and let me go.
I never ever seen a motorcycle cop have a throttle on the left side I even know one and I seem to pull up to my house and I thought it was on the correct side the right I don't know about that but I'm going to have to ask my friend that question cuz I never seen that in my life
I'm 71 and was thinking screw concealed and use a leg holster?
How come there is never a winner? Last on the page was in 2015.
I have a question. If I enter this gun giveaway, and win. What if the gun is not on California roster?
You say that the USCCA is giving away a hand gun I like the Minnie Kimber 9mm, also if and when are the USCCA going to give away a rifle?
Carry Appendix so You can keep a hand on it
It would be more helpful to pop up images of what you talk about on the screen as you talk about them. I have no idea what any of the items you mentioned look like.
