I usually carry around one of these.

I also like to carry a tin foil hat, wallet, keys, and a cell phone.

Phone (Incredible)
Car Keys
Keys with Flash drive (Keep them separate because I have a bunch of works keys on there that I hate carrying all the time)
Wallet
Small Kershaw Chive (Useful at work and for general purposes. Probably not much good for protection)

I would love to reduce the things I carry. Dislike carrying a flash drive, but it's very useful at work. And I hate carrying 7 different keys for work, but I've tried leaving them at the office and always forget them till i'm already at a remote location that I need them and have to go back.

I carry because in the off chance that I end up in a bad situation I can take care of myself. The extra magazine is just because. Sure, I probably don't need it, but I'd rather have it close by if possible. The gun and the mag are both on my belt and don't weigh down my pants at all. My normal carry is much smaller but it's in the shop right now. The knife is just good for all around. It's not really a self defense weapon, it's more of a tool.

I think you're silly that you think I give a shit about your stupid opinion. I posted this thread because it's interesting to see what everybody carries, not for everyone to get a boner over what I have. So go fuck yourself.

Edit: I don't intend for this thread to turn into a gun debate, so can we please stay off that topic? KthxSTFU.

So... they're not in your pockets?

So we are supposed to post about stuff we have in our pockets, or just stuff that is around in an attempt to make ourselves look cool? I'm confused. :hmm:

Pretty simple, clean, and minimalist. 10 rounds is enough for off duty carry, why do people carry extra mags? going to war with a rival gang anytime soon? LOL.

No camera right now so.

Key ring in the front left pocket, with house key, 2 car keys, little flashlight thing, 8 gig flash drive wrapped in CANADA hockey tape to keep it together.

Wallet in the back left, black leather bi-fold

Phone in the front right, Samsung Wafer

I'm not huge in carrying stuff in the pockets, I generally try to stick to low profile things so people only want to focus on the bulge that matters.

-Keys with leatherman micra (very useful) and a LED light (need to replace dead battery)
-Samsung Flight (poor man's smartphone)
-MP3 player (either ipod touch or sandisk clip)
-Wallet

Sorry no pictures as I don't have a micro-sd card adapter on me. :p Maybe later if I remember?

edit - sometimes i'll carry a knife (Gerber knife) if I'll be in a sketchy area

Magazine failure is not unheard of - the old 'two is one, one is none' saying.

You could also win the lottery, but that's unheard of. Two is one one is none is bullshit. I'll take my 10 rounds vs. your spyderco knife.:hmm:
