Ryan calls this his summer carry and says it’s an, “update on my edc. New items are the Stretch, TK 4L, and the Olight S1A. Still carrying the Glock 19 (w/ Federal HST 147 gr) in the DOS and a Big Skinny wallet. Not pictured is my G17 spare magazine and iwb carrier.” Check out the details at Everyday Carry . . .
Simple. I like it.
Very nice – especially considering it’s similar to my setup! I like the 124 grain HST +P, although I have a lot of standard pressure rounds as well. I notice a bit more noise and recoil, but I also notice an increase in velocity.
I used to be a 124+p guy. But, moved over the 147 standard pressure loads….
The noise was the part which sold me in the end. I figure, if I need to pull my smoke wagon in a DGU, I am not wearing ear pro.
So, I don’t want to blow out my ears anymore than necessary.
I carried a spyderco with a vg-10 blade for several years while stationed in Mississippi. The humidity and summer heat resulted in drenched-with-sweat clothing, especially when working outside. That blade never showed a spot of rust, and I probably only oiled/cleaned it every 6mo; I was very impressed.
I noticed a lot of folks carry larger mags as a spare.
Just a word to the wise, I used to di the same thing and it can cause issues. During a training class, I kept having issues with the extended mags.
Nothing catastrophic, but things which you don’t want happening in a gun fight. Especially, if you are reloading, which already means bad news bears.
It is literally impossible to overinsert a glock magazine (at least for all the double stacks). See the following video: https://m.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=90&v=DXohG9HfR1M
The malfunctions came from extended mag rocking around and causing a jamming.
I didn’t mean necessarily the reload (over insert) is the issue.
Ryan, that is an excellent summer carry, I would personally add a weapon light but thats its. All the bases covered quite nicely! Good to see such a well put together edc
