Your Off Duty Carry

[Chuck Whitlock]

Lounging at the house, it's normally a P250c in a CCC Uno v2 with clip, a Wilderness FF belt, a Lone Wolf version Spyderco waved Edura, and a Streamlight PT1L-1AA light.

If I head out among the masses, the P250c goes into an Uno with PTD snaps, a slightly longer FF belt, spare magazine in a JM pouch between belt and pants, a Kahr K9 in a JM IWB #3, and a KaBar TDI knife in a DSG sheath. The Endura gets swapped for a CKRT M16-14ZSF, and a spare Kahr magazine and a spare Streamlight PT1L get added to the off-side pocket in respective pouches.

If I need to be more discreet, then it's the K9 strong-side in a JM IWB #3 and a CW9 weak-side in a CCC Versa-Clip.

I should probably add that when I turn in for the night, the P250c in clip holster goes on the nightstand, and a pair of shorts with FF belt threaded through the loops and Endura in the pocket are folded nearby with a t-shirt, so that's an easy combo to don when I get up, either normally or otherwise.

Same as on duty....Glock 19.

When I'm going to a high-traffic public place with my family, I'll often (but not always) carry a very nice looking leather satchel from Saddleback leather. It's called the "Indiana Satchel", and yes... it's a man purse. It has a trauma kit (including tourniquet, chest seal, pressure bandage, gauze, gloves, scissors, etc.), spare Beretta mag, mini survival kit, and and ESEE RB3 or Anza knife. I get away with it when carrying or holding my 3yr-old daughter's hand.

Eh. I don't get what the deal is with guys thinking it's weird to begin with. I've got a VertX EDC Satchel as a BOB, and just recently bought a hand-tooled leather bag from a Spanish artisan for general use.

In Europe, men carrying bags (whether it's a small traveller's purse or larger attache-style) isn't a strange thing. In Spain, nearly every man has one. It's smart. It allows you to carry more stuff, more comfortably. So when travelling, I can keep my Mophie phone battery, charger, bottle of water, as well as extra cash, wallet, or documents in it. I also have a small travel-friendly trauma kit in it, just as my wife has everyday. It allows me to carry more stuff, as well as keep a lot of stuff out of my pockets which is more comfortable.

When I have some time at home, I'm going to glue a velcro panel to the inside of it so I can better organize things. I love it though.

Off duty is normally a G19/RMR which mimics my on duty gun minus an X300U (that might change if I try a Phlster Spotlight here soon). When I'm not feeling like carrying a gun I drop on a G43. Sometimes I'll throw on a spare mag but that's more often when I carry a G43. I carry a Spyderco PM2, wallet, chapstick, and badge. I usually don't carry a flash light but if I'm going to somewhere like a movie theater I throw on my SF Fury. I don't carry cuffs or OC or anything because I don't want to be carrying a full duty belt when I'm not working.

I was about 26 when I got over the "man purse" stigma. Someone will make a joke every 3-4 weeks, you smile, that's as bad as it gets. As a professional they're too darn useful to have some macho hangup about.

Off duty, I typically carry a S&W 640 w/ wood service stocks and a Tyler T-Grip in a DSG holster and either a speed strip or Safariland Comp I in my strong side pocket.

I have my Surefire Sidekick clipped to my car keys, and lately I've been rocking the old Case Sodbuster Jr in yellow delrin with the CV blade instead of my Delica.

When I'm wearing pants and not shorts, I go with the Leatherman instead of the Case.

I use two front-pocket wallets. One with my DL, CWP, and credit cards. The other has my department ID, access card, and PBA card.

Have you ever used a Phlster? Just curious how this compares aiwb.

Any issues with the clip?
