I like the compactness of the shield, plus the 40 packs a nicer punch..

 

I agree on the size of the shield( I have one also) but I just feel better with 12+1 over your 6+1. I don't carry a spare mag......

And don't start talking about shot placement over number of rounds......

That's a different kind of stippling job! Where did you get it done?

Spray and pray, eh?

I like stopping power.

You can always get a Glock 30S.

Great list.

I have pretty much the same thing except for the matches and fire extinguisher. I may have a line on some automotive stainless steel fire extinguishers here soon. A lab that I deal with is about to start filling them. I am just waiting for them to get up and running and tell me how much.

I also carry my EMS med bag which has everything from band aids and gauze to ring cutters and decompression needles. If my XD is not in the dash holster, then it is in the console vault. That is my truck gun so it rarely leaves the vehicle.

 

Spare fuses! Other than tires the only time I actually was stuck on the road was when the fuse for the fuel pump became too corroded. For that matter a piece of sandpaper for the same situation wouldn't hurt. And a VOM to test electrical issues. A spare battery for the VOM. And the list goes on.


Most of the items you could probably fit in the jack compartment and behind the spare tire. But keep the fire extinguisher, flashlight, first aid and hammer where it is easy to get to preferably from the front seat.

 

I stippled it myself. I have done a couple of them also some PMAGs of mine.

 

We had some guys at work that were using what was basically grip tape on key points on our blocks for added grip and also to remind them of perfect placement for accuracy. Seems to have worked nicely put it was tearing up uniforms and gear at contact points while carrying. Never had to worry about slipping no matter the weather. Very nice job on the stippling do you notice any advantage of it on the P-Mags though? Not to hijack any threads...

 

Yes huge difference with the PMAGs especially when wet. I know some guys are strongly against stippling but it is my EDC gun so I really could care less about resale value. I have no intention on ever selling it so I want it to serve its purpose 110% which is to be there and ready when I need it. With the stippling, I am not worried about a slippery grip when my hands are wet or sweaty.

Also, sorry to the OP, but you title of "every day carry" means something else to some of us.......

 

Yup!

Stewart

 

No worries. That's why I used the term.

 

I wish I could be trusted with a weapon again I would love to have a nice sidearm and an AR. I got to do some breach training with my MP unit back in Texas with shotguns and I thought my hard on would never go away!

 

I think i need a bigger X don't know where to mount it yet. I want to carry it all

 

I have the winchester version of that in black, I have a few guns in there and the rest is full with 100 dollar bills
