Surefire has lights ranging from $30-300+, so idk why you think that’s way off base? If this one is too much for you, there are others that are cheaper. Plenty of other brands too. The Stiletto pro is well worth the money in my opinion. 👍🏼
@@MidwayShooter bro $265 is very standard for surefire 😂 and if you can afford it why are you complaining? They’re USA made quality lights, it’s really not overpriced
@@justified_edc complaining? It’s an opinion and you reviewed it on you tube and should welcome opinions. Much better options for less money. Sure fire ain’t all that
Opinions are welcome when they add something to the conversation. So far, your only input has been “surefire too expensive” and “I can afford any light I want”. So maybe when you start actually contributing to the conversation and giving us some alternatives that you think are better, I’ll take your opinion seriously instead of thinking you’re crying like a little kid who can’t afford a toy his friend has.
Enjoy the first upload guys! Let me know what you think and leave any future video suggestions in the comments. Sorry for the bad video quality, I have a new camera mount headed to me in the mail.
Always nice to see someone carry a J-frame. I carried one for probably a decade with few exceptions. Although I seldom carry a revolver these days, I still think the J-frame is often a sensible and effective choice. Also, I really like that fixed blade. Looks very "slicey."
I started to use a fixed blade for self defense, and a utility knife that looks more like a tool, that you can pull anywhere and people will be ok(if that makes sense). I really like that concept
I am also a Machinist, i run a Cincinati U5. Have you tried the Streamlight Wedge? I like it as a nice EDC light. You gave me some nice ideas for some new gear!
I have seen it around but I already had the stiletto pro at that point so figured I didn't need another light so similar. It looks like a nice option though especially for the price. Thanks for watching!
I carry a 38 SPL and round speed loaders. Same I want a knife that I can use for utility and sometimes it's the same one that I use for a backup self-defense weapon I always carry multi-tool as well and various other items I always have sunglasses. I3T EOS O'light, o'pen2 and a custom utility pocketknife/multi tool and the Gerber multiplayer mp 600
Great video, brother, I subbed. 😊 I know you’re careful, and I also care, so I have to ask to please be careful with that muzzle direction, especially when holstering or otherwise handling. 😊 Great gear, great explanations. Looking forward to more from the channel!
2 questions - how much does all of that weigh and how often do you use, let's just say, the vast majority of those items ? I am a hiker/camper - so I am all about light weight (I wouldn't say UL) and functionality.
I'm not sure the exact weight but I could take a measurement In a future video! The light, notebook/pen and Leatherman (obviously keys and wallet as well) get used every single day especially when I'm at work. The gun/defensive blade/medical I hope I never ever have to use but I'd rather have them and not need them than need them and not have them. I actually have used the medical kit before when one of my coworkers was injured.
I just had them laying around but if you search “soft loops” online there’s a ton of companies who make them. Concealment Express “pull the dot” and Raven Concealment are two of the better ones
I have a full trauma kit in my car and I keep a more extensive med kit in a fanny pack that is always within arms reach when I’m out. Tourniquets, chest seals, more gauze, compression bandages, etc. In terms of carrying spare ammo for someone else, there’s way too much ammunition/magazine variety to anticipate what a random stranger might need. I do sometimes carry a spare gun for friends/family that may be with me in something like an active shooter situation though.
How often do you get attacked? Maybe you could just be more careful or less paranoid or become more trusting. "People sticker"is such a sad thing to say. Sounds like you're going to make a big, stupid mistake one day.
