The cash on hand is most helpful. I’m interested in knowing more about the baton carry. I assume he’s referring to an ASP expandable. I carried one on duty for years, and still have two, but there are many, many stories from patrol cops who found batons ineffective against a variety of people. I would be interested in hearing the guest’s thoughts on this. Great show, as always!

90% of trade craft is getting another person to trust you. Learning to be confident, friendly, innocent looking, and in some cases helpless, will put you in a situation where you are in control. Knowing how to control the situation and manipulate that situation to your advantage. Be friendly, be personable, take and give, give and take, develop a friendship even if it only last for a few seconds, minutes, or hours. This will get you out alive. First thing to carry on EDC is a friendly persona.

@@user-kl8lo6rj5i There was a MLM company called Quorum International I was a part of for awhile that sold personal alarms in 1993. Great for kids and mothers and they were loud! About a 1/3 of the size of the average cell phone now with a battery and siren, pull the pin and it activates the circuit! Problem was, network marketing companies do best with products that you purchase on a monthly basis, so you had to keep selling and selling with no repeat business other than building a downline.

As a retired police officer and former military, worldwide traveler, his info is spot on. I would add always wear long pants or jeans especially when traveling, you get more protection and you blend in more with locals. Short pants are for the beach or pool . I always wear shoes and when traveling i wear construction type boots or over ankle heavy duty boots, or hiking boots. Youll blend in more and they protect your feet. When traveling always carry a bandana, with a rock you can make an expedient weapon and can ditch quickly. Wear a leather belt with a heavy buckle....

I like the laminated phone list of family. Cell phones are great, but they can break and batteries do die. Case in point, many years ago, a friend had just purchased a Palm Pilot (yeah, many years ago) and while in a meeting he was bragging on it and saying how wonderful it was. Another guy in the meeting was still using his paper Day Timer system. He stood up and threw his Day Timer against the wall as hard as he could, picked it up and said, mine still works. Will yours do that? Love your channel!

One thing when he was looking at the gun he didn’t check to see if it was loaded, even if someone says it’s not loaded, out of habit you always cock back to check the chamber, trust but verify and always treat a gun as if it’s loaded.

“Intelligence Agency”. Most of the job is collecting, processing, storing, analyzing data to include the dang IT systems and server rooms. Then they have to be super locked down, which means very few off the shelf software because the exploits are known. Imagine the most anal IT department. Then imagine that all the people “trustworthy” enough to pass background check to not leak info are all odd ducks - mega nerds, hippies, bureaucrats, fundamental Christians, especially Mormons (ultra secretive religion). The HR department must have a freaking ball. So then, the amount of people who do actual “spy work” as you would imagine in the movies is probably phenomenally small. It takes an army to support those folk. Then if you are clandestine overseas, why would you give the government you’re professionally screwing with the LAWFUL right to detain you for decades (even if they ignore your espionage) by carrying a firearm? You’d just hire security or more than likely cross your fingers and hide under your cover. Clearly this guy didn’t do anything spooky, because those people never unmask themselves. This isn’t anything unknown, when Bush and other presidents unmasked spies, the concerns were that “even if the US person is safe, foreign governments can go back to old pictures and data to find who the US person interacted with”. Yeah, this guy didn’t do anything crazy. He’s clearly in the large percentage of odd ducks, who also happens to be averse to guns. Gun enthusiasts would not carry a baton (you’ll just get shot or stabbed or it’ll get used against you!) or an alarm (that won’t stop a true psycho!). They would not rack the slide, they would not point it at their hand, they wouldn’t say how an unloaded handgun “has such great balance”. Dude is prolly anti-gun as you get for a federal employee. What’s amazing is that he probably has better physical fitness than the pro-gunners here. And probably better mental fitness, too, because somehow the many indications that “CIA employee =/= gun expert super spy Jason Bourne” has flown over all these people’s heads. FFS, the CIA probably has to hire thousands of Starbucks employees and HVAC technicians with super ultra secret clearances…. “I worked at the CIA”. “Why didn’t you check if the gun was loaded ??? Omg I’m so much smarter than super spy!!!1”. “I worked at cia making coffee for my whole career. Why did you hand me firearm? Irresponsible for you to hand someone a deadly device on camera without discussing”.

And that 1% that does have the authority (nonofficial or official) to use a weapon tends to be within a tier 1 type unit, which is a DoD affiliate. it doesn't surprise me that he didn't handle the gun like an assassin because he probably wasn't an assassin.

Another huge thing I learned during my time in USI from a guy I won’t name is: Know what items you have on you that you can sell quickly to a local for cash. That can vary depending on what it is, of course. You’re not going to sell the items in this video, like your shoes or your handgun, obviously. But knowing what to sell and how to quickly sell it can get you some much needed cash in a pinch. Also, not every country’s cab system works exactly the same. Before entering a new place, you need to know how to work the cab system officially and unofficially. I had a cab driver in a foreign country that saved my ass because I was familiar with how their shit worked in that country. It wasn’t until hours later that the driver had a rough idea of what was going on but by that time we had become friends and he wasn’t going to let me get into trouble. And it only cost me $200 worth of local currency.

I've heard from friends in law enforcement that they won't go to their batons because they've had instances or know of instances where guys don't go down when getting hit with them and will continue attacking. It kind of makes sense because of the adrenaline dump and the idea of having to hit someone perfectly in a chaotic situation (depending on the attacker's size/durability). This is anecdotal, of course, but you also see this with riot police using batons and basically not doing much to deter rioters. Might be a good choice for your kid's self-defense, but I think there are better non-lethal weapons to choose from for an adult. I also believe, that having a firearm on you or in the house can be fine if you can teach your child the dangers of that weapon. I mean, I'd hear stories of my great-grandfather keeping his .38 next to his rocking chair on the end table his entire life and similar stories of back then with other families. There is always that chance of an accident, but it really doesn't seem that issue was an anomaly back then----I'm not claiming to know why those circumstances have changed over the years, but guns were everywhere openly at one point in America.

When it comes to baton you Gotta be careful because some cities in the states actually make baton illegal to carry. especially if it’s an actual ASP or even one of those little miniature baseball bats you can get at the Dodgers game. I had a friend who got pulled over and had one by his door tucked between the seat and the cop site. And instead of saying it was a present for my nephew he said it was for self-defense. That got him a felony record.

In Florida you can carry a buton but it had to be manually opened and closed, it can't be a push button spring, it can be gravity. Pepper spray can't be over 4oz. Best tip for other States or in general if you carry something like that, make it a small baseball bat and add a glove and some baseballs to it as a kit, that way it always looks harmless.

Fascinating! I carry the SigSauer p365x every day. My Glock 19 is too big, heavy and hard to conceal on a woman’s body. When I first had the p365x in my hand, I noticed the exact same thing about the grip and extended beaver/dove tail. It feels so good in my hand and fits my hand beautifully. Shoots great. I opted for the 12+1 p365x instead of 17+1 x-macro because of the weight and size difference. I’ve had lumbar surgery, so weight really matters for edc. The smaller size of the x is easier to conceal for right-appendix carry. You can always carry extra magazines on your opposite side. I don’t, usually. I’m a long-time shooter, very comfortable with my accuracy. Realistically, how many situations could you find yourself in where you needed or had time to fire more than 13 shots? Even if you’re outgunned by someone with an AR, accuracy will be key. Train with the most experienced combat veterans you can find. Train often. Accuracy, recoil management, reloading & clearing malfunctions on the fly, moving and shooting, all kinds of lighting conditions, friendly and foe targets mixed together & dynamic in the scenarios. This is the type of training I find most useful. Standing in one spot at the gun range is for fine-tuning trigger control, accuracy, etc., but you have to do dynamic scenario training with experts to become a proficient shooter. Lastly, I didn’t carry with a round chambered until I acquired a stalker within my gated community. I always do now, because of the ambush potential. I won’t have time to rack the slide to chamber a round, after drawing from concealment. It just took a mental adjustment. And a solid kydex holster. I enthusiastically recommend the SigSauer p365 line of firearms for edc. Check out their new p365 Rose line specifically for women, with the included safe storage, dummy rounds for dry fire practice, and online training program by SigSauer World Champion Lena Miculek. 🌹🐍🇺🇸

So, Sig isn’t like my indestructible Glock that I’ve probably got 10,000 rounds through, huh? 🤣 I evaluated the Glock 43 & 43x, along with 8-10 other sub-compacts, but man, the grip & extended beaver tail, relatively easy-racking slide, all sold me on the Sig. I swore I would never again break in a new Glock. It was unrackable until I had a gunsmith adjust it and even then it was a bitch to break in.
