Hey Man👋 Thanks so much for the shout out on the hank! I love everything topo of course and im glad you do too! I hope the hank is treating you well! Thanks again and take care man! -Eric -DRH

[@GruntyCaveman]

Hey, Eric. The hanks are going strong. One lives in my back pocket, so I sit on your product everyday!

[@buellxbee]

@@GruntyCaveman Haha awesome! I love when I'm sat on...I mean...wait...you know what I mean. 😂😉👍😁 Good to hear though!

[@wessowell6616]

I clicked on this video just to find out how to get that color combo of Axis Elite….and then I cried at the 9:45 point in the video 😂. Great looking setup man that is one sick color combo

[@GruntyCaveman]

@wessowell6616 Hit me up using the email in my "About" section. I have another that's brand new.

[@Draxzy]

@@GruntyCavemanbeen looking at side cars recently. Want to try one before I pay full price for one. How you like yours?

[@GruntyCaveman]

@@Draxzy I’ve tried a LOT of holsters from big name companies. T Rex Arms, QVO, SlimFit, Vedder, McKinnitec, etc. None of them come close to the quality and design of Tier 1 Concealed. They are expensive, but worth every penny. I no longer bother with anyone else. What gun are you running?

[@Draxzy]

@@GruntyCaveman I carry a Glock 19x mostly and sometimes a shadow systems mr920L (long slide 19 clone) but just got a hellcat pro and have been loving it so far. Haven’t got a holster yet for it though so haven’t been able to enjoy the comfort

[@GruntyCaveman]

@@Draxzy Sorry, I don’t have any holsters for those particular guns to send you.

[@GruntyCaveman]

A re-uploaded video. The original video had copyrighted music that was offered through my video editing software. I didn't want to use someone's music without authorization, so I did a re-do.

[@thorshammer5134]

Hell yeah, love to see a CZ edc. I have a super custom CZ 75d pcr I edc. Best pistols imho. I have CGW internals, custom Vytal grips, primary machine optic milling and buis plate for rmr, burnt bronze cerakote, custom copper guide rod and grip screws. Also carry a karambit on my offhand side, spare mag in left pocket with neomag or reload wrap, a small multitool in back pocket, wallet and folder in back right side, then a Olight ark field in the right pocket.

[@GruntyCaveman]

Yep, CZ's are great. I've never had the opportunity to shoot a PCR, and yours sounds sweet..

[@bobbydynamite]

I appreciate the update, some schmuck. 😂 I enjoyed it!

[@heathmarcum5390]

I enjoy sharpening my knives, and it helps you keep in good practice

[@johngordon2929]

Luv luv the watch!!!!! Waited to the last for the good parts.

[@GruntyCaveman]

Watches, guns, knives... at least those habits are relatively affordable. Cars, motorcycles, planes, boats- those become problematic.

[@stevemastbaum]

Excellent choice in handguns.

[@GreymanEDC]

Check out the Olight Otacle P1 Multitool. That's the smaller Multitool I EDC and I love it. Has a very solid set of pliers on it as well. Definitely worth checking out for $25

[@GruntyCaveman]

Thanks, Greyman. I have the Otacle as well and it’s pretty good. I just want something with just pliers and real drivers, nothing else. I’m just being picky.

[@mikelgeren149]

Color coordinated , how cute .

[@GruntyCaveman]

My clothing never matches. My furniture doesn’t match. Of course my EDC matches, because I know what really matters in life.

I carry that knife, a modlite okw, and 15 round mag on belt 9 o'clock. 43x mos tlr7, sub light and werkz 48 holster 3 o'clock. Tourniquet, and chapstick, and bic light front pockets. Theres more and things change at times. Looking at a tier 1 with ulticlips, Might do another compact build. EDC can be $2k or $3K at times with armor and watches. Lolz most times just a fitbit.

[@GruntyCaveman]

What kind of holster do you use for the kitchen sink? :)

[@Mr.9mm]

Perfection 👍🏻

[@GruntyCaveman]

But not GLOCK perfection :) More perfecter?

[@simmo1567]

Great video!!

[@blobby4109]

Look into Werkz holsters. I got a holster for the kabar and it can sidecar to the appendix rig. Might be something you’ll be interested in

[@GruntyCaveman]

Thanks for the recommendation. I just can’t give up my spare mag carrier. The separate knife sheath setup works pretty well for me.

[@blobby4109]

@@GruntyCaveman have a good one

[@jasonpbrownshooting]

Ha! I just missed out on buying your t1c holster. Still sore about it in fact. 😂 Hope you are still rocking the p10c!

[@GruntyCaveman]

Damn, sorry about that! I have another Tier 1 for the P10C on eBay, but it's a Xiphos Elite, non-light bearing, in Zombie Green. Let me know if that's something you might want.

[@jasonpbrownshooting]

@@GruntyCaveman Not your fault, though if I had realized how long it might be before my own T1C order makes it though the process, I probably would have bid harder! Beautiful setup you got there.

[@johngordon2929]

As far as the CZ goes I am a glock guy I don’t see no reason not to pick one up now with or without red dot milling I can get it milled her in Mesa. That price for that firearm can’t be beat. I got all the glocks but I think the czp10s needs a look at.

[@GruntyCaveman]

Be sure to check out my full review of the P10 C to find out why you may not want a CZ.

[@ResplendentRaider]

@@GruntyCaveman not sure about the P10C but the P01 and P07 are stellar

[@GruntyCaveman]

@@ResplendentRaider Yep, I made the mistake of selling my P01 a few years ago. Dumb.

[@MRsolidcolor]

I’m a CZ guy and own a Glock 45. Wish CZ would make that size of gun. For whatever reason that did the long barrel and short grip. The barrel locks my junk. And the grip makes zero difference in concealing it.. czp09 carried daily

[@MRsolidcolor]

@@ResplendentRaiderI rock a p09 everyday

[@mrfedrick91]

CZ ftw

[@briandriver301]

Nice watch.

[@GruntyCaveman]

Thanks! We all have our addictions…

[@nurturant9243]

I'm looking to get an optic for my P10 C OR. You run a HS407K X2 if I'm not mistaken. Does it work well with the higher sights of the Optics Ready version?

[@GruntyCaveman]

I had a 407K (RMSc footprint) mounted with a CZ Customs adapter plate, and it worked well for co-witnessing with the OEM sights that came with the optics ready slide. I now have a Holosun 407A3 (RMR footprint) with an adapter plate from ANR Designs. The factory co-witness height sights work just fine with that setup as well.

[@nurturant9243]

Got it, thanks @@GruntyCaveman

[@BanditApache-nd6lu]

Wow! Like orange much cowboy!?!

[@BanditApache-nd6lu]

Actually, if you email Aaron from Tier 1, you can get any color combo that you want!

[@GruntyCaveman]

I asked, was denied, so I had to take matters into my own hands. Necessity is the mother of invention.

[@dylnfstr]

Any update on the alpine swiss wallet? Any bending of cards etc.? I had a Recycled firefighter that got stretched out but had issues with it bending my cards and one time it gave them all a really funky smell. (I never found the cause for that)

[@GruntyCaveman]

No issues whatsoever and it’s holding up well. I don’t have a sense of smell, so I’m not sure about the stink factor 😁

[@OneRyLove]

Damn that’s a lot to carry. I mean you would think you lived in East St. Louis or something. Cool stuff though lol

[@GruntyCaveman]

LoL. That's the bare minimum 😁. That's what I mean about an EDC journey though. If you're used to just carrying a phone and keys, then strapped on all this gear, you'd think it's insane. But after decades of fine tuning your EDC, all this crap feels normal.

[@OneRyLove]

@@GruntyCaveman ahhh okay I got it, lol plus I’m not the outdoorsy type so i keep it simplest just my EDU, wallet phone and keys, knife usually I just keep in my car lol also I’m a girl so I can’t conceal that much anyway without dumping it in a purse which isn’t an option 😂

[@kylewood8327]

Nice gear

[@Freedom2219]

Nice watch for price

[@mhl2674]

I know a guy who knows a guy who knows a guy. But doesn't help me!

[@GruntyCaveman]

I have a carbon fiber/orange combo of the same holster if you're interested. Brand new, just under retail price (the price of a solid, non-custom color combo) for a TLR-7Sub. Just let me know.

[@mhl2674]

@@GruntyCaveman Appreciate the offer! But I'm a lefty and shoot Glocks, unfortunately.

[@GruntyCaveman]

@@mhl2674 You’re just all kinds of backwards! 😁

[@jesussalazar9071]

Lol we both like orange

[@GruntyCaveman]

It's the correct choice for manly men :)

[@puffymarshmellow3149]

Whats your favorite color

[@GruntyCaveman]

Haha :) My favorite color is rage.

[@charles17508]

Why is the optic cut so big ?

[@GruntyCaveman]

I've rid myself of a couple of micro compacts, so I have a surplus of smaller optics with the RMSC footprint. My larger RMR optics are on other guns right now. Once I find a good adapter plate, I'll put an RMR on the P10C.

[@wbwills2]

The p 10 c has been catching my eye lately. I haven’t read much about it yet. What were you saying about partial spring tension ,not fully cocked striker? Might have mus heard you.Earsare ringing & giving me a fit right now. Thx

[@GruntyCaveman]

@@wbwills2 not a gunsmith, but on fully cocked striker fired pistols such as the Walther PDP and Canik Rival, the striker is fully pulled back, with the striker spring fully compressed. When the trigger is pulley, the sear is disengaged from the striker leg, releasing the striker. On partially cocked striker fired designs like the Glock and P10C, pulling the trigger moves the striker backwards, and your finger completes the full cocking, then the sear drops and releases the striker. In my caveman brain, the latter is less likely to result in the destruction of my junk.
