@Cole Alan so what do you think should be a carry gun? A glock 19 with 5 30 round magazines?
@JTimberB.453 жыл бұрын
@Cole AlanClint says that we all get to choose what we carry. He chooses a 1911. He also frequently carries a glock. He has the most experience with a 1911, but likes both. He has said many times, pick what you like and be familiar with the system. I’m not going to go and rock a Walther CCP, or a Ruger 57. I’ve never shot one. I’m going to stick with a 1911 or a Glock of some kind because I know the system better than anything and I know they do not fail Edit: he has never said that we should all carry a 1911. Some people need a Bersa Thunder .380, some need a Glock 21 in .45.

"I'm not shooting anything I can't positively ID" THANK YOU. went to buy a new pistol in march and the guy at this new gun shop told me "you don't need a light, just aim the laser at the silhouette and you'll be fine." Jesus Christ I couldn't imagine being like "i'm cool smoking that based on my assumptions." I also I love how you push home "you can and should carry, but you also must be proficient and accountable for that weapon" The number of guys I know who carry and never go to the range, or don't practice the basics you've talked about is baffling. It's like having a car but never learning to drive. What's the point in carrying if you're just as likely to hit someone you're not aiming at as you are the person you are aiming at? A well armed society is a polite society, but a well armed society that doesn't practice with their weapons is fucking terrifying.

Great stuff as usual. However, I am going to make one comment regarding the seatbelt issue. You are more likely to get in a collision where you want your seatbelt to work properly than you are to get into a scenario that requires a draw from concealed while seated and belted in, so I would recommend against lifting the lap belt up/over/behind the holster. For a lap belt to work properly, it needs to lay on top of the "hip pointers" or wings of the pelvis, which for the vast majority of people is the same general area as the pants belt. When seated in a car, the "ideal" positioning of the seatbelt might actually be _below_ your pants belt (unless you're wearing super low-rise/low-waist pants or some such). Having the seatbelt above the pants belt by a significant margin (closer to the belly button) means that the belt is not covering the pelvis, and hence instead of a strong bony structure with skeletal support, it is rather "restraining" the soft tissue of the lower abdomen. And yes, it is "soft tissue" regardless of how ripped your 6-pack is, because large structural bones are far stronger in compression than any muscle group. In a crash, this bad placement of the lap belt can cause significant bruising and internal injuries, as well as possible lower spinal damage and increased likelihood of "submarining" the lap belt -- meaning your hips slide forward under the lap belt and pull your torso down and forwards through the lap belt, like a submarine slipping under the surface of the water -- which can lead to knees striking the under-dash panel which increases likelihood of knee/femur injuries. Proper seatbelt positioning would essentially have the seatbelt more or less overlap your gun carry belt if not slightly lower, overlapping the body of the holster, and while I've been living overseas for the past few years and hence haven't been in a car with a modern carry holster, I imagine it wouldn't be that much more uncomfortable than carrying in a regular chair sitting position with the pants belt cinched down a bit more. And in any case, this positioning of the lap belt still leaves the grip of the pistol completely free, since the seatbelt is down by the trigger guard area of the holster, so you'd still have decent access to draw in the event that it's needed (not much different to drawing from seated in an office chair or restaurant booth besides the limited lateral mobility and the steering wheel in the way like the restaurant table). Anyway, just my $0.03 (inflation), and as usual your individual situation, priorities, and clothes/gear/seat fitment will dictate.

One thing I BEG people who conceal carry is to hold yourself to a higher standard, not only in how good you are with your gun, but to do everything to de-escalate situations. In my state, we've had several incidents recently in my city where someone is legally concealed carrying, and they don't remove themselves from a confrontation, causing tempers to continue flaring, but they won't just back down because, "fuck you, I have a gun", and then someone loses their life over something incredibly stupid when it didn't need to keep heading in that direction.

@@gamergeek8933 I've ordered four holsters from Vedder. Two of which were made for accessories: Hellcat w/ reflex sight, Glock 19 w/ Streamlight. Fit/ function on all the Vedder kydex holsters is excellent. I have another hybrid leather/kydex for my M&P Shield. That's also good, but retention is not adjustable and relies on body pressure. Less retention than all kydex. I have little experience with other brands, but have been happy with what I have from Vedder so far. I've used these holsters daily with no quality problems to date. Hope this helps. If you have recommendations, please reply.

One thing about leaving your mag compressed with ammo in it: it'll be fine. Springs do NOT get weak over time, compressed or depressed. Using them, as in cycling ammo through them, will cause metal fatigue and wear out the spring, however.

Pretty silly of him to carry FMJ and say it’s because of where it’s zeroed and what he practices with. He should know better. The difference between POI is measured in fractions of an inch in any self defense distances. (And you can still buy a few extra HP to learn where it hits at long range compared to FMJ if you regularly practice that far.) Zero with what HP you carry, buy training FMJ that’s somewhat close in recoil if really it means that much to you (it doesn’t matter but “you do you”), and then just accept the negligible difference in hits on target that you’ll probably NEVER EVEN NOTICE. And FMJ removes the thing that makes 9mm so competitive with its bigger brothers, which is modern defensive bullet technology.

FN FNS-9C, 9mm Sub-Compact carried in a kydex IWB holster in a 3 o’clock position. Works good for me, reliable, and easy to use and comfortable to wear for 10 hours at a time. 2. Sig Sauer P220, .45 Full Size, Carried in a Galco leather shoulder holster. I have other holsters for this gun but the shoulder holster is 95% of how I carry it. (This was the first handgun in a real caliber I ever shot, my dad carried his as his duty gun in law enforcement back in the 90’s and kept his when the department changed over to Glock. I grew up shooting his P220. And decided to buy one of my own a few weeks back and it’s made its way into my carry options.) 3. Glock 43, 9mm I have two holsters a dedicated ankle holster (I Personal don’t like carrying on the ankle) as well as a second ankle holster that also doubles as a front right pocket holster. That is my primary option for short trips where I’m not expecting to be out of the house for more then 30 minutes.

For my EDC pistol, I ended up going with an RM08 (dual illuminated; green 12.9 triangle). Yes, it does get a bit dim indoors but I also use a nightstick 850xls with irons cowitnessed to the RMR. The reason is that on 2 of my other pistols that had optics, each had bottom batteries that needed replacing every year-ish. The first time I replaced my first battery, the mounting screws stripped the threads. The second one sheared off 1 screw and the head stripped in the other. All of these were screws that came with the original typical semi-permanent thread locker and everything was installed 100% to spec (12-20 in/lb) with a torque wrench. I couldn't use the usual blackout bits so I ended up snapping the optic off, backing the threaded end out, buying a new mounting plate/screws, and having to reinstall. One of the screws that holds the plate onto the slide stripped also, meaning I had to re-tap the slide. It was all insanely arduous and infuriating considering it was a very basic task on a very refined gun with a top-end optic being performed by a highly experienced fabricator/gunsmith. With the RM08, I never have to remove the optic so I used heavy duty thread locker and have not had a single issue since. I always HIGHLY recommend that you use an optic on your slide that does not need to be removed for any reason. There are awesome sights that have top-load or side-load battery trays or there are the fiber optic and tritium sights that are good for 12-15 years (for the tritium) and get brighter outdoors than ANY other sight. I'll take the dim reticle in dark areas (still able to cowitness irons) for 12 years over stripping screws and tapping threads every year. Hell, I probably won't even have the pistol for 12 years since I love the trading game. Peace y'all, and keep one in the pipe!

You cover some excellent points and speak about stuff most don’t think about. You can’t protect life unless you train! Thanks for the awesome video! This is probably a topic we will cover on our channel as well in addition to mindset! Great video 👍

Just get that local judge to sign your petition that you're in fear for your life due to some particular reason. Or just be fishing always.

@@walt3719 Ah you would think, but CA being the dumbass state it is, you require a sheriff to sign off on the permit. Not a judge. 😬 Oh and it’s at the discretion of the Sheriff themselves personally. Not the office, but THE sheriff. I’ll have to research about always going fishing. And boating accidents. Edit: for clarity

So glad you addressed the ammo thing. I've always thought it nuts to train with one thing but carry another.

I got tired of crunching my nutz with appendix carry which is why I now carry at 2:45 ish....slightly forward of 3 o'clock. It has proven to be just as fast after training in that carry position for years. My on-target hit, drawn from concealment, is sub .8 of a second. How ever you carry, training is the key...train a shit ton as you said in the video. Great video!

I recommend carrying appendix even if you do have survival weight. The discomfort will motivate you to drop the donut
