I am taking my concealed weapons class in december, and am in the process on figuring out the gear I will need for daily carry. I would love to see pics of your daily carry set-up (gun, holster, belt, flashlight, knife, etc.) Also, if you could explain why you chose your gear or why it works best for you. Thanks so much in advance.

here is mine about a month ago, has changed a little bit

This is what I have done for the past two years after getting too annoyed with the size of my G19, which led to me not carrying many times, and worrying about printing when I did. However, I may be getting a G26 soon because I don’t feel too comfortable with only having 5 shots and then a painfully slow reload, which I could mess up and drop the rounds everywhere. The can of spray fits in one pocket with the revolver perfectly, I can pull out either one.
This is the exact reason why I started carrying my G26. Nice to see OC there. While not pictured, I do carry an ASP Palm Defender on my keys. I think OC is very important for CCW because you’re more apt to use that than draw your gun.
I used to carry an ASP palm defender, but it now lives in a box or drawer somewhere. If you get a chance, actually spray the ASP, and spray a FOX can if you haven’t already. The ASP barely sprays out a couple of feet of light mist and only sprays for a few seconds. The FOX can (not the fox keychain) really puts it out, further, faster, wider, longer duration–comparing the two is like a garden hose sprayer vs a spray bottle. I like the OC option, spray and run away is in my book of strategies, and I would do it without hesitation in certain circumstances.
I also made my wife spray her keychain FOX unit(after carrying it for 2 years), and we joked that she would have totally gotten raped because she had significant trouble with the safety, and then it was a disappointing spray. She then sprayed my larger can and had no trouble with the safety at all. It was also fun because the wind changed and we got to feel a little bit of heat. Now she wants the can.
How do you like to carry your G26? Appendix?
Yes, the ASP is definitely not good after 5 feet and is a fine mist. I used the training cartriges and could only get 3 good shots off with it. That Fox can looks like the same size I carry on my batbelt only Fox is stronger from what I’ve read. I’m gonna have to figure out a way to carry a can. Yes, the G26 gets carries AIWB. That’s a High Noon Mr. Softy for my P2000 it’s in right now. I’m waiting for my Blade Tech Phantom to come in the mail. It’s tough to find a holster that allows a good grip on it since the grip is so stubby.


g17 kershaw knife, coleman max, light its bright aluminum and its cheap, and the 2 holsters i alternate between. 1 is a desantis and the other is a galco. both are great holsters

Here’s mine.
M&P 9 w/ Surefire x300 in a Raven Phantom LC
Spare Mag in Don Hume carrier
Leatherman Charge Ti
The Phantom is worn between 2 and 3 o’clock
the spare mag is worn at 9 o’clock
The Phantom has got to be one of the best holster I’ve ever owned. It’s comfortable and it conceals a full size gun with light OWB, never been able to do that before.
Also, don’t forget about a quality belt. The belt makes the biggest difference in a CC setup.
TRS at 4:00, spare mag at 9:00, Benchmade in each front pocket.
Left the belt out of the pic, but it’s a Ares Ranger.


I started carrying a G19 instead of G27 when I bought it and a phantom LC but I retired the phantom pretty quick for my long time standard the C-TAC. Comp-tac sucks as a company for charging $17 for replacement clips(broken a few over the years) but this holster works awesome for me from riding the motorcycle, working in the yard or rolling around in the living room with the kids. I have a shaggy also but with extended mag release on my glocks if rolling around on the ground it will eject the mag. Not the shaggy’s fault as its a great holster if you user standard mag release.
I’m going to switch back to a G26/27 once I buy a new one as my wife has commandeered my old G27. I think the sub compact glocks are the ideal ccw for me.
The S&W 642 in don hume holster is for when I don’t carry a reload for the glock due to tucking in the shirt. I have crimson trace grips which I’m not a fan of but to lazy to change out. I carry a surefire in cargo pocket or back pocket. The swiss army knife doesn’t look cool but love having pliers, screwdrivers, scissors…
I don’t have pictures, but a Glock 17, or P2000 with two magazines, a Kershaw Blur, and my phone is usually all I carry. Works very well for me.

I carry my 92FS concealed - and I am using a comptac holster. I also have the same holster for an Beretta M9A1 that I occasionally carry.
My light is a 300 lumen/60 lumen Eagletac P20C2 Mk II. My knife is a Leatherman Micra… smaller than a swiss army knife and just as useful. I use the scissors, screw drivers and knife all the time…

ShipWreck that Leatherman looks sweet I’m going to try and pick one up to replace my swiss army knife.
I have a couple of them. They are pretty nice. I find the scissors to be much more useful than the tiny pliers some of the small leathermans/leatherman clones come with. You can usually find them for less than $20
Rig has changed a lot in the last few months. I’m pretty happy with my setup now.

I recently picked up the Comp-tac pouches, and I’m very happy to have that crap out of my pockets. I can conceal them fairly easily even under a t-shirt.
Holster at 4:30ish, mag and light at 9:00, everything else shoved in pockets. ![]()
This setup serves me just fine in IDPA. Just add one more mag pouch and go. I run with a t-shirt since I don’t ever wear fishing vests in real life. ![]()
Going heavy …

Going light …

I did forget to put a belt in the pics. I new I was forgetting something. I wear one of the following; A&G Custom Leather, TT Gunleather, The Beltman, or Wilderness Tactical.
I have an in between setup that consists of a G26 in a pretty compact AIWB from TT Gunleather.
