Former infantry. Carried a weapon 24/7. Haven't touched one since I got out. The burden of responsibility, situational awareness, ballistics 101... never made me feel excited. Ever. I've found being prudent and friendly has kept me pretty safe for 1/2 a century.

This is written in the New Testament. Any tangible reminders we may carry are only crutches for our own moments of unbelief.

12:06 A tansanian priest was once asked at an airport in china if he carries any weapons with him. He answered with "yes" and the guard was terrified. He then showed the rosary to the security and said: "59 rounds (the beads) for satan." Pray the rosary everyday. Thanks Shawn!
So where at in the scriptures are we commanded or even recommended to “pray the rosary”? When did Christ say to act like pagans and use talismans or ascribe spiritual powers to pendants? My prayer is that Shawn comes to the realization that Roman Catholicism is steeped in pagan mythology and brings reproach upon true historical and biblical Christianity.
@@BasedBalboni The Catholic Church compiled the very bible you rely on yet you have the audacity to question the traditions of the church. It is not perfect, no institution with humans involved will ever be perfect. And if you were Satan, the one church you would want to attack is the original church, the Catholic Church. Secondly, the prayers used in the rosary are all compiled directly from scripture. Why would Jesus instruct his followers on the sermon on the mount on how to pray, using a "structured" prayer? The rosary is simply a tool, not a talismans, it's a reminder and there to help guide us in our spiritual life. The beads have no power, it's the prayer that protects us. It's crazy how scared protestants get of the rosary, truly shows how far away from God they are. Matthew 6:7 is speaking about pagan prayers that were blasphemous, not prayers used in the rosary directly from scripture.
@@joeyassyrian if you think calling Mary “holy, and full of grace” and asking her to intercede for us is from scripture you are either lying to yourself or you are deceived. We’re not “scared” of the rosary sir. We are saddened to see the idolatry and want Christ to be honored, not Mary. TH-cam comment section is the last place I want to have an in depth conversation about all the errors coming out of Rome though. Have a good day sir.
Loved the show! I picked up a 365 when they first came out and it also took the place of my G43. My brother in law (former Marine, VN) got me got me hooked on Sigs about 20 yrs ago......started with a few older WG ones, it never ends. Also have a thing for old rifles, if only they could talk....K31 is exceptionally sweet!
365xl here. Got the macro slide with a EPS carry optic and nightstick laser/light combo. Absolutely in love. Easy too conceal and easy too handle. I'm a true believer now lol.
1:39 in and I’ve seen more Shawn than I have in the past 2 years. Dude keep killing it, great content. Mad respect from Ohio, the vet community here loves what you are doing. Bring the dark into light. Let people tell THEIR stories
A Rosary!!! I pray the Rosary everyday...there are times when I do not, but I always come back to it. I will include you and your family in my daily Rosary intentions. Regina pacis ora pro nobis.
Black triangle group makes nice G10 and is pretty small still I think too. I used to EDC a G10 Sharpie when I was working on the ambulance, gave em some good piece of mind.
Shawn. I’m from Tennessee. You’re a great guy. I love your podcast. There’s a lot of things that don’t make sense in this world, but I’m glad there is a trailblazer like yourself to follow.
Shawn, I agree with your rosary you carry. I wear a anchor and cross day and night as part of my edc. The cross because I am a Christian and the anchor because I am a Navy Veteran myself. Protection I received from God in unwanted situations I was involved with has definitely saved me from bad guys and evil being able to overtake me. Never loose your faith brother 🙏
Dude, thank you so much for this vid. I’ve gotten away from my practice since service days. This is culturing and refreshing. Love the show I’ll always tune in. Stay blessed🙏🏻
Oh, no! I just promised myself no more knife shopping this year, and now the promised is broken:). I love your blade collection. Cold steel makes cool fiber glass knife FGX Skean DHU, absolutely beautiful, not detectable blade. I totally see you inventing your brand blade and seeing myself buying it and promoting it. I really love all your EDC, and I appreciate links for shopping. You made a really good point about authentic and reliable shopping sides to get quality products.
Hi shawn, big Argentinean fan here from the begining of your youtube carrer. Did get a 43 a couple of years because of you and have not planed to make any change. Cheers mate!
Been carrying a axg legion for a couple months now and love it. Thought I was going to be miserable with a full metal frame gun and I can still carry it with my sweatpants with no issue. So it’s here to stay haha
It's been a privilege to watch your shows and to see your own personal journey. As a man of faith, it gladdens my heart to see that part of your journey as well. I think your show is one of the best out there and I've been heavily impacted by some of the guests you've had on as well as by you. Thanks for the vid- This video and a few others have convinced me that I need to carry a tourniquet as often as possible. God bless.
That tourniquet is bad, they have been tested. They snap and break. They do not work. Shawn is not a man of God or faith. He’s a man of money / marketing and he just sold you a tourniquet that is proven to fail and leave people bleeding out. Please get a CAT. Shawn took money, he lied to you about the effectiveness of that tourniquet brand. Please research yourself
Shawn, my favorite part of this was your wardrobe choice. Love it. That had me laughing. Keep it simple. 😂 I have been following you since the old days. I’ve seen every pocket dump video. Thank you afor all you do brother!!!
I am an EMT and a stop the bleed instructor. I not only carry some official good tourniquets, but I also have ace bandages everywhere. Not only do they work for use as a pressure bandage, but also a tourniquet.
THEN YOU WOULD KNOW THAT TOURNIQUET ISNT RATED AND HAS A PROVEN HISTORY OF FAILURE. That isn’t even a real tourniquet Dude seriously? Go do the research
I should have explained better. On our engines, we only carry 3 actual labeled tourniquets ($ 20 per). But, we also carry 4-2" inch wide elastic bandages ($2 per) because they are multi use. So, if we have to tourniquet more than 3 extremities, we use whatever we have to keep them from bleeding out. If you're wondering how you use an elastic bandage as a tourniquet, you apply it using the same method as you would if you were using an official labeled SWAT-T tactical tourniquet.
As for those seriously concerned about using improper tourniquets, I spent the morning researching it and sharing your concerns with all of the fire departments, Ambulance services, and our base hospital emergency department including my fellow EMT's, Paramedics, the ER Doc, and the trauma surgeon (he did 2 stents, 1 Iraq, 1 Afghanistan as an Army Trauma Surgeon) they (28 experienced EMS providers in total) assured me that it was okay.
@@jamesarmstrong5238 you’re a good human being. If you see someone using these quickly let them know of their history and get them something that works. I couldn’t live with myself if I had one of these and it cost someone their life
Appreciated you being 'uncomfortable' by sharing your EDC along with the reasons you choose them. As you noted your preference for a deep concealment holster, I tried it out... thank you as it perfectly fit the bill for me, and comfortable as well which isn't easy for appendix carry!
Shawn Ryan is a solid guy. He has some serious life experience and brings other folks on and does a great job of respectfully interviewing them without being an authority. Closest thing to Joe Rogan but is doing it in military/LEO area and owning it. Much respect.
Just ordered two tourniquets for my Dad and I. I didn't even think about it being an amazing stocking stuffer. (I did take your advice and ordered the North American Rescue ones in rescue orange, having a tourniquet doesn't matter if you cant find it)
You’re the only person on TH-cam I respect enough to hear everything you say lol, not saying other operators sucks but you have changed the game and absolutely deserve this respect.
Mr Shawn Ryan... ive been watching you for a while. I love that you keep a rosary with you. Ive been doing that for a few years. My Father taught me that ❤ anyways.... keep up the great work brother 👍 Thank you for your service
I enjoy and love watching your show. I'm never disappointed and each one has my full attention - they are just enjoyable, including the ones such as this with no guest. Your guest shows are off the charts, I always learn something, usually a lot of something! YOU are a big part of all that, as well as your style, the fact you put no airs on, the way you present yourself, and the language you use. The whole package is so relaxed and relatable. (like talking with a friend) YOUR GUEST LIST IS ALWAYS AMAZING. You definitely found the shoe that fits. Thank you, may God speed and watch over you and your family
Just subscribed. I really like how down to earth you are. The whole no BS is really refreshing! The content is meaningful, very well done. Great show Shawn!!!
I have the wave+ limited. Got the metal bracket clip with the nut/ bolt wrench holes. Never go anywhere without it. Carried a Leatherman for almost thirty years. I agree with your comment.
Great show, I enjoy seeing what others carry and why. I use to carry upper end 9mm handguns, but my son (law enforcement) convinced me to carry Glocks. Glock may not be the best handgun, but it’s used around the world and regardless if it’s friend or foe magazines and parts will be available. Also I only use iron sights (except on long range rifles) because of the reliability factor and I believe it makes you a better shooter. Just the ramblings of a 68 year old!
27:50 Just a tip regarding ammo choice. Very often, if you’re against an evil prosecutor in case you use your firearm for self defense, they can trap you with your ammo choice. If you have FMJ they will say you’re dangerous for over penetration. And if you have Hollow Point, they will say you’re dangerous because you want to kill more easily…. Either way, you loose. One advice that was given by a lawyer expert in firearm self defense, he said just go to your closest police station and ask them what munition they’re using, and then use the same model. So in court, you can claim that if it’s good for the police it’s also good for you. Very often, it will be some kind of Hollow point. I know it could look stupid to think about that, but it could save a lot of hassle if you ever have to use your firearm for self defense. There’s so many ways some lefty anti-gun DA could screw you over, by picking the same ammo brand & model, you remove one possibility out of the equation. My 2¢
Indeed, they're very much choosing based on the same criteria so this can be pretty solid advice. That said the duty ammo is very likely the brands mentioned. Ranger T series, Speer Gold Dot, Federal HST, etc.
this is an under utilized tactic.. the video James reeves did on the likelihood of a conviction in a self defense shooting jury trial when using an AR15 vs a Ruger Mini 14 showed that even though they are both .223/5.56mm and do the same damage, and are semi automatic with 30rd magazines you're more likely to be found guilty with the AR just because of appearance and popular opinion..
@@tharrisonH625 it's as bad as they say for phone theft - happened to a relative a few weeks ago, but still it's not really dangerous.. I wouldn't openly wear a Rolex though. that's asking for trouble.
Really enjoyed this episode, nice pocket dump video, nice perspective on what you carry why you carry. I like the things you mentioned and explanation of of why you do it. Lots to consider for my personal daily carry routines
Hey Shawn I enjoyed your pocket dump; I did 27 years USAF I carry many of the things you do but not the same quality I learned a lot today thanks you’re a good man
Lol! Enjoyed this. Appreciate it! Btw, the rosary is a very POWERFUL form of prayer.. anyone who has one should learn how to pray it.🙏 Lots of vids out there. Pray for our country.🇺🇸
I just bought a Sig 365 and put a Holosun green dot sight. I have a few different holsters. My DeSantis leather fits many of my different Sigs. I have discovered that my cheapest , suede IWB holster is my favorite.
Im liking the EDC pocket dump segments. Yours and your guests. Its cool to see who caries what and why. I also carry the P365. Love it. Thanks for sharing and all your great content and info that you share.
Great video love the explanation for why you carry what you carry! I would love to see a compilation video of a lot of the guys that you’ve had in in the military and in the community that do their every day pocket dump and tell you what they have that would make for an awesome hour long video !!!
6:00... Hate to break it to you, but there is no such thing as secure wireless coms. Anyone could get I to your phone with just an IP or Phone Number. All they have to do is screen record your stuff
"Don't go with the gimmicky shit." Best advice ever. I EDC an Ed Brown Kobra Carry in .45ACP. It is a definite CAR pistol. Having carried and shot 1911s (professionally and as a civilian) for over 50 years, my Comfort level with them is off the charts. It is extraordinarily Accurate. And through over 10,000 rounds it has been 100% Reliable. Thanks for a geat vid.
So glad to hear that you came to faith. Rosery doesn't protect you, God does. If that's how you think of it, it's an idol. Sorry to be that guy but it must be said. Cheers.
"The only thing that makes sense to me is the Word of God and the Bible" - totally "get" it! Don't lose the Rosary - and, don't do like I did .... opened the pouch in my pocket one day to find that hard work had banged against the Rosary pouch so much (construction work) that it was disconnected in many pieces and had to have a jeweler repair it. Pt: use it; pray it; every day ... changed my life - will do wonders for yours' as well. Peace, brother.
Thanks Sean. Really appreciate the tourniquet for kids option. The large plastic frame of CATs make it hard to get a good wrap around toddler size limbs (even though they claim they work fine).
G19, extra mag, kershaw push button blade, phone, lone wolf rigger gun belt, fobus holster and a good attitude. I also wear black shirts because I usually spill something on it.
Thank you for sharing. I have been kicking around the P365 for ECD. Your opinion does make a difference. (Not the deciding factor.) But it does give some more credibility to the piece.
I have a tip, firearms are what I do and I also have a range. If you need to test to see if your firearm will feed your newest HP ammo. Just load every other round with a HP round. So it would be ball, HP, ball, HP and so on. Then fire the ball ammo and look to see if the HP round loaded, then eject the HP round, keep doing it over and over. I have found that with most handguns you can do this around 25 times per round before the tip gets bashed in, if the tip is smashed just shoot it next time. You will find that with a 50 rd. box of carry ammo you can do a lot of testing. I hope this saves someone a lot of money.
To add on Shawn's ammo statements, it's easy to buy training ammo that closely matches the felt recoil of your hot +P Gold Dots or whatever you're shooting. For us p365 or g43 shooters rocking 124gr +P gold dot, Winchester makes a "9mm NATO" 124 gr that's loaded hot and feels exactly the same as the Speer ammo to practice with at 1/3 of the cost. Edit: As Shawn says, though, cycle the good shit through as well to make sure it works with a couple hundred rounds.
I have been watching Shawn for 4-5-6 years now. I have learned ALOT of great information. I.E. Someone breaks in to your house, call 911 FIRST, throw your phone on the floor. That way the operator hears everything and can send units while you have your focus elsewhere. I am glad that you found some happiness. I also got married (no kids tho..pass lol) in my 40's. I have struggled with panic attacks and anxiety for most my adult life. I now have it at a well maintained level. Here is my 2 cents worth of B.S. 1. Please, keep politics out. It is 2024, not every blue/red person believes the same. 2. The 365 xMacro is awesome. 3. Gummy bears and basically anything gummy is an American tradition. Enjoy them. Stay up brother.
Good info. Hey just an fyi, if you don't already know, there's a company called "magguts" and they provide a different spring and end plate where you can put 14 rounds in that same magazine vs 12... Same size, two more rounds... That's what I carry on my SAS hybrid I use for deeper carry.
Shawn, you give out great takes. The Spirit of the almighty God is your protection. The rosary in itself has not power, it is a tool to help you focus on the One who gives you the spiritual power. Christ is King, love yah brother!!

My prayer is that Shawn comes to the realization that Roman Catholicism is steeped in pagan mythology and brings reproach upon true historical and biblical Christianity.
@@BasedBalboni The Catholic Church compiled the very bible you rely on yet you have the audacity to question the traditions of the church. It is not perfect, no institution with humans involved will ever be perfect. And if you were Satan, the one church you would want to attack is the original church, the Catholic Church. Secondly, the prayers used in the rosary are all compiled directly from scripture. Why would Jesus instruct his followers on the sermon on the mount on how to pray, using a "structured" prayer? The rosary is simply a tool, not a talismans, it's a reminder and there to help guide us in our spiritual life. The beads have no power, it's the prayer that protects us. It's crazy how scared protestants get of the rosary, truly shows how far away from God they are. Matthew 6:7 is speaking about pagan prayers that were blasphemous, not prayers used in the rosary directly from scripture.
That's kooky pagan stuff
@@joeyassyrian if you think calling Mary “holy, and full of grace” and asking her to intercede for us is from scripture you are either lying to yourself or you are deceived. We’re not “scared” of the rosary sir. We are saddened to see the idolatry and want Christ to be honored, not Mary. TH-cam comment section is the last place I want to have an in depth conversation about all the errors coming out of Rome though. Have a good day sir.
Loved the show! I picked up a 365 when they first came out and it also took the place of my G43. My brother in law (former Marine, VN) got me got me hooked on Sigs about 20 yrs ago......started with a few older WG ones, it never ends. Also have a thing for old rifles, if only they could talk....K31 is exceptionally sweet!
I like my p365 with the optics cut. It replaced my m&p shield. Much better, but I haven’t shot a shield 2.0.
365xl here. Got the macro slide with a EPS carry optic and nightstick laser/light combo. Absolutely in love. Easy too conceal and easy too handle. I'm a true believer now lol.
1:39 in and I’ve seen more Shawn than I have in the past 2 years. Dude keep killing it, great content.
Mad respect from Ohio, the vet community here loves what you are doing.
Bring the dark into light.
Let people tell THEIR stories
A Rosary!!! I pray the Rosary everyday...there are times when I do not, but I always come back to it. I will include you and your family in my daily Rosary intentions. Regina pacis ora pro nobis.
Black triangle group makes nice G10 and is pretty small still I think too. I used to EDC a G10 Sharpie when I was working on the ambulance, gave em some good piece of mind.
Being vulnerable is good. In this setting...
Thx!
Shawn. I’m from Tennessee. You’re a great guy. I love your podcast. There’s a lot of things that don’t make sense in this world, but I’m glad there is a trailblazer like yourself to follow.
Shawn, I agree with your rosary you carry. I wear a anchor and cross day and night as part of my edc. The cross because I am a Christian and the anchor because I am a Navy Veteran myself.
Protection I received from God in unwanted situations I was involved with has definitely saved me from bad guys and evil being able to overtake me.
Never loose your faith brother 🙏
1st comment. I watch you religiously. Thank you for all you do and all the things you’ve brought to light. Many people appreciate you.
@justinwhite7468 He's Great!!!
Wait til you see the Chris Bledsoe episode. You’re gonna be blown away
Dude, thank you so much for this vid. I’ve gotten away from my practice since service days. This is culturing and refreshing. Love the show I’ll always tune in. Stay blessed🙏🏻
Oh, no! I just promised myself no more knife shopping this year, and now the promised is broken:). I love your blade collection. Cold steel makes cool fiber glass knife FGX Skean DHU, absolutely beautiful, not detectable blade. I totally see you inventing your brand blade and seeing myself buying it and promoting it. I really love all your EDC, and I appreciate links for shopping. You made a really good point about authentic and reliable shopping sides to get quality products.
Hi shawn, big Argentinean fan here from the begining of your youtube carrer. Did get a 43 a couple of years because of you and have not planed to make any change. Cheers mate!
Love your sincere acknowledgement of your faith unashamedly Shawn. It's so awesome to see that from someone like you in your position
Been carrying a axg legion for a couple months now and love it. Thought I was going to be miserable with a full metal frame gun and I can still carry it with my sweatpants with no issue. So it’s here to stay haha
What brand jacket is that? Looks quality.
In the outro too. Great looking jackets- I’d love to know this too
More than likely Barbour
leaving this comment here! if anybody finds out lmk!
Lmk
Anybody figure this out yet?
We love all your interviews with other interesting folks, it’s great to hear some personal views and preferences from you. Keep this up.
I clicked and clicked around on the video to find the rosary. And there it is! God bless you Shawn
❤
It's been a privilege to watch your shows and to see your own personal journey. As a man of faith, it gladdens my heart to see that part of your journey as well. I think your show is one of the best out there and I've been heavily impacted by some of the guests you've had on as well as by you. Thanks for the vid- This video and a few others have convinced me that I need to carry a tourniquet as often as possible. God bless.
That tourniquet is bad, they have been tested. They snap and break. They do not work.
Shawn is not a man of God or faith. He’s a man of money / marketing and he just sold you a tourniquet that is proven to fail and leave people bleeding out. Please get a CAT. Shawn took money, he lied to you about the effectiveness of that tourniquet brand. Please research yourself
Shawn, my favorite part of this was your wardrobe choice. Love it. That had me laughing. Keep it simple. 😂
I have been following you since the old days. I’ve seen every pocket dump video. Thank you afor all you do brother!!!
Shawn, I always learn something from you and your guests. Its always time well spent.
I love this guy. Quality dude. God Bless you and all your loved ones! Thank you!
Smash the like on all the comments it boosts it in the algorithm;)
Shawn is such a great teacher. I love all his guests. Prepare as best as you can you can only carry so much on one person.
That’s why we love you ❤, you keep it real and be real as it Gets!!!! 🇺🇸
I am an EMT and a stop the bleed instructor. I not only carry some official good tourniquets, but I also have ace bandages everywhere. Not only do they work for use as a pressure bandage, but also a tourniquet.
THEN YOU WOULD KNOW THAT TOURNIQUET ISNT RATED AND HAS A PROVEN HISTORY OF FAILURE.
That isn’t even a real tourniquet
Dude seriously? Go do the research
I should have explained better. On our engines, we only carry 3 actual labeled tourniquets ($ 20 per). But, we also carry 4-2" inch wide elastic bandages ($2 per) because they are multi use. So, if we have to tourniquet more than 3 extremities, we use whatever we have to keep them from bleeding out. If you're wondering how you use an elastic bandage as a tourniquet, you apply it using the same method as you would if you were using an official labeled SWAT-T tactical tourniquet.
As for those seriously concerned about using improper tourniquets, I spent the morning researching it and sharing your concerns with all of the fire departments, Ambulance services, and our base hospital emergency department including my fellow EMT's, Paramedics, the ER Doc, and the trauma surgeon (he did 2 stents, 1 Iraq, 1 Afghanistan as an Army Trauma Surgeon) they (28 experienced EMS providers in total) assured me that it was okay.
@@jamesarmstrong5238 you’re a good human being. If you see someone using these quickly let them know of their history and get them something that works. I couldn’t live with myself if I had one of these and it cost someone their life
Appreciated you being 'uncomfortable' by sharing your EDC along with the reasons you choose them. As you noted your preference for a deep concealment holster, I tried it out... thank you as it perfectly fit the bill for me, and comfortable as well which isn't easy for appendix carry!
Shawn Ryan is a solid guy. He has some serious life experience and brings other folks on and does a great job of respectfully interviewing them without being an authority. Closest thing to Joe Rogan but is doing it in military/LEO area and owning it. Much respect.
Major points for carrying a strider, keep up the good work Shawn!
Was going to come to say about three things that been said so all I’ll say is Thank you Shawn! Thanks for everything you did and do!🤙
Man its so good to hear you say the word of God is the only thing you truly trust in the world anymore. So happy youve come to faith 🙏✝
As always, thanks SRS. Hoping all is well✊🙌🙏🇺🇸
You’re welcome!
Shawn big props for showing and explaining the rosary 📿 amen brother !
Just ordered two tourniquets for my Dad and I. I didn't even think about it being an amazing stocking stuffer. (I did take your advice and ordered the North American Rescue ones in rescue orange, having a tourniquet doesn't matter if you cant find it)
It’s fall. P365 is shelved. It’s full-size carry season. G17 and the shoulder holster under the coat😎
I have an MP5 under my jacket! 😄
Hilarious
I just shelved my Sig p365 for the winter, now rocking my Beretta 92A1 in a shoulder holster with 2 spare mags.
I used a snake staff tq recently. Came upon a car accident, driver had a severed foot, dangling by a thread of skin. The ss tq worked flawlessly.
Good to know! I carry one on me
Also learn how to make em from shoelaces and a stick or similar item .
@@eddiereyna2998a shoelace is not wide enough 😅
You’re the only person on TH-cam I respect enough to hear everything you say lol, not saying other operators sucks but you have changed the game and absolutely deserve this respect.
Mr Shawn Ryan... ive been watching you for a while. I love that you keep a rosary with you. Ive been doing that for a few years. My Father taught me that ❤ anyways.... keep up the great work brother 👍
Thank you for your service
I enjoy and love watching your show. I'm never disappointed and each one has my full attention - they are just enjoyable, including the ones such as this with no guest. Your guest shows are off the charts, I always learn something, usually a lot of something! YOU are a big part of all that, as well as your style, the fact you put no airs on, the way you present yourself, and the language you use. The whole package is so relaxed and relatable. (like talking with a friend) YOUR GUEST LIST IS ALWAYS AMAZING. You definitely found the shoe that fits. Thank you, may God speed and watch over you and your family
Just subscribed. I really like how down to earth you are. The whole no BS is really refreshing! The content is meaningful, very well done. Great show Shawn!!!
Man, it breaks my heart with the lack of Leathermans in everyone's daily carry.
Hank Hill would be sad.
One of mine is always nearby, just usually in a bag in the vehicle. Thing is heavy, man.
I carry the Skeletool
No need for leather man here. My carry suits me just fine. 👍🏽
I have the wave+ limited. Got the metal bracket clip with the nut/ bolt wrench holes. Never go anywhere without it. Carried a Leatherman for almost thirty years. I agree with your comment.
Unplugged phone is awesome!! This was great!
Great show, I enjoy seeing what others carry and why. I use to carry upper end 9mm handguns, but my son (law enforcement) convinced me to carry Glocks. Glock may not be the best handgun, but it’s used around the world and regardless if it’s friend or foe magazines and parts will be available. Also I only use iron sights (except on long range rifles) because of the reliability factor and I believe it makes you a better shooter. Just the ramblings of a 68 year old!
27:50 Just a tip regarding ammo choice. Very often, if you’re against an evil prosecutor in case you use your firearm for self defense, they can trap you with your ammo choice. If you have FMJ they will say you’re dangerous for over penetration. And if you have Hollow Point, they will say you’re dangerous because you want to kill more easily…. Either way, you loose. One advice that was given by a lawyer expert in firearm self defense, he said just go to your closest police station and ask them what munition they’re using, and then use the same model. So in court, you can claim that if it’s good for the police it’s also good for you. Very often, it will be some kind of Hollow point. I know it could look stupid to think about that, but it could save a lot of hassle if you ever have to use your firearm for self defense. There’s so many ways some lefty anti-gun DA could screw you over, by picking the same ammo brand & model, you remove one possibility out of the equation. My 2¢
Genius tactic.
Indeed, they're very much choosing based on the same criteria so this can be pretty solid advice. That said the duty ammo is very likely the brands mentioned. Ranger T series, Speer Gold Dot, Federal HST, etc.
this is an under utilized tactic.. the video James reeves did on the likelihood of a conviction in a self defense shooting jury trial when using an AR15 vs a Ruger Mini 14 showed that even though they are both .223/5.56mm and do the same damage, and are semi automatic with 30rd magazines you're more likely to be found guilty with the AR just because of appearance and popular opinion..
I’ve received the same advice regarding the ammo the police use from actual cops. Great tip
Guess I’d better contact my local police and talk them into using Underwood Xtreme Defender 😂
Top tip: if you wear a Rolex in London, you'll almost certainly receive a free knife.
Yea off there dead body
Is London as violent as reported?
@@tharrisonH625 it's as bad as they say for phone theft - happened to a relative a few weeks ago, but still it's not really dangerous.. I wouldn't openly wear a Rolex though. that's asking for trouble.
LOL
Nothing would happen in London. Maybe here in Chicago south side.
Really enjoyed this episode, nice pocket dump video, nice perspective on what you carry why you carry. I like the things you mentioned and explanation of of why you do it. Lots to consider for my personal daily carry routines
Thanks Shawn. A lot of us appreciate what you do stay safe keep your faith strong.
Watched The Outlaw Josey Wales last night. Think I’m going to start carrying three Colt 1851 Navy’s.
Don't forget the Walker 🤠
I would highly reccomend you strap up like Bloody Bill Anderson. Stay authentic.
Hey Shawn I enjoyed your pocket dump; I did 27 years USAF I carry many of the things you do but not the same quality I learned a lot today thanks you’re a good man
Love this presentation
Lol! Enjoyed this. Appreciate it! Btw, the rosary is a very POWERFUL form of prayer.. anyone who has one should learn how to pray it.🙏 Lots of vids out there. Pray for our country.🇺🇸
1:36 not the fatherly belt crack 😭😭
That belt crack teleported me back 400 years 😂
Those be the best belts to wear. Very durable and will outlive you.
Dont ever stop carring that rosary. Pray it!
The spiritual warefare is real. Good man!
It's great to call you my brother in Christ. I admire your accomplishments and especially, humility.
22:58 Firearms
G19, chapstick, Ridge wallet, folding knife, pen. At work I include an EDC light and Leatherman
I just bought a Sig 365 and put a Holosun green dot sight. I have a few different holsters. My DeSantis leather fits many of my different Sigs. I have discovered that my cheapest , suede IWB holster is my favorite.
I have worn a white gold Mariner exclusively since 1988. AND my “backup” is my 1954 Rolex Oyster Date just that has to be manually wound. 😁
Im liking the EDC pocket dump segments. Yours and your guests. Its cool to see who caries what and why. I also carry the P365. Love it. Thanks for sharing and all your great content and info that you share.
Also Rugged Rosaries are super tough and have military style options. I handed these out to troops when I was in and carried these deployed twice.
I bought one a year ago. It's very sturdy and bulky rosary
Thanks for the tip on Rugged Rosaries!
Great video love the explanation for why you carry what you carry!
I would love to see a compilation video of a lot of the guys that you’ve had in in the military and in the community that do their every day pocket dump and tell you what they have that would make for an awesome hour long video !!!
Check out cold steel knives their awesome!
6:00... Hate to break it to you, but there is no such thing as secure wireless coms. Anyone could get I to your phone with just an IP or Phone Number. All they have to do is screen record your stuff
Nonsense. Especially if you have your own dedicated sats. Crazyyyyy comment
"Don't go with the gimmicky shit." Best advice ever.
I EDC an Ed Brown Kobra Carry in .45ACP. It is a definite CAR pistol. Having carried and shot 1911s (professionally and as a civilian) for over 50 years, my Comfort level with them is off the charts. It is extraordinarily Accurate. And through over 10,000 rounds it has been 100% Reliable.
Thanks for a geat vid.
So glad to hear that you came to faith. Rosery doesn't protect you, God does. If that's how you think of it, it's an idol. Sorry to be that guy but it must be said. Cheers.
"The only thing that makes sense to me is the Word of God and the Bible" - totally "get" it! Don't lose the Rosary - and, don't do like I did .... opened the pouch in my pocket one day to find that hard work had banged against the Rosary pouch so much (construction work) that it was disconnected in many pieces and had to have a jeweler repair it. Pt: use it; pray it; every day ... changed my life - will do wonders for yours' as well. Peace, brother.
I have so many tabs open just checking out each product. Some really new directions and fun to learn whats out there !
Rosary might be the coolest thing Shawn has. Pray it every day!
Went to their website and everything is "sold out".
2:10 Have you been using that exact same belt for 20yrs, or that brand and style? That belt doesn't look worn more than a day! Is it that Old?
Bro belts go to shit in 2 years when you lose and gain weight.
Thanks Sean. Really appreciate the tourniquet for kids option. The large plastic frame of CATs make it hard to get a good wrap around toddler size limbs (even though they claim they work fine).
Lmao Shawn’s a smart guy. A really smart guy. But it goes to show you at 4:42 even some of the smartest people won the planet are still dumb.
G19, extra mag, kershaw push button blade, phone, lone wolf rigger gun belt, fobus holster and a good attitude. I also wear black shirts because I usually spill something on it.
Grayman Satu Used for chopping down huge Redwood trees. IT IS A MONSTER folder. It should come with wheels. DUA is for medium Redwood trees.
Thank you for sharing.
I have been kicking around the P365 for ECD.
Your opinion does make a difference.
(Not the deciding factor.) But it does give some more credibility to the piece.
I have a tip, firearms are what I do and I also have a range. If you need to test to see if your firearm will feed your newest HP ammo. Just load every other round with a HP round. So it would be ball, HP, ball, HP and so on. Then fire the ball ammo and look to see if the HP round loaded, then eject the HP round, keep doing it over and over. I have found that with most handguns you can do this around 25 times per round before the tip gets bashed in, if the tip is smashed just shoot it next time. You will find that with a 50 rd. box of carry ammo you can do a lot of testing. I hope this saves someone a lot of money.
Glad to see you have the most powerful weapon, the rosary! Give it time Our Lady will lead you back to the Church.
To add on Shawn's ammo statements, it's easy to buy training ammo that closely matches the felt recoil of your hot +P Gold Dots or whatever you're shooting. For us p365 or g43 shooters rocking 124gr +P gold dot, Winchester makes a "9mm NATO" 124 gr that's loaded hot and feels exactly the same as the Speer ammo to practice with at 1/3 of the cost.
Edit: As Shawn says, though, cycle the good shit through as well to make sure it works with a couple hundred rounds.
Another awesome edc man!! Thanks for taking the time out to describe why you carry it as well. Keep the great content coming!
I have been watching Shawn for 4-5-6 years now. I have learned ALOT of great information. I.E. Someone breaks in to your house, call 911 FIRST, throw your phone on the floor. That way the operator hears everything and can send units while you have your focus elsewhere. I am glad that you found some happiness. I also got married (no kids tho..pass lol) in my 40's. I have struggled with panic attacks and anxiety for most my adult life. I now have it at a well maintained level.
Here is my 2 cents worth of B.S.
1. Please, keep politics out. It is 2024, not every blue/red person believes the same.
2. The 365 xMacro is awesome.
3. Gummy bears and basically anything gummy is an American tradition. Enjoy them.
Stay up brother.
Good info. Hey just an fyi, if you don't already know, there's a company called "magguts" and they provide a different spring and end plate where you can put 14 rounds in that same magazine vs 12... Same size, two more rounds... That's what I carry on my SAS hybrid I use for deeper carry.
Shawn, you give out great takes. The Spirit of the almighty God is your protection. The rosary in itself has not power, it is a tool to help you focus on the One who gives you the spiritual power. Christ is King, love yah brother!!
