    ditto what mos said...if i was allowed to ccw then this would be part of my edc - glock 43 with +1 hyve mags ($600'sh?).

    [​IMG]


    you reference john wick a lot...where's your glock? you know, one for the day and one for the night :D as a side note: yes, i'm a glock fanboy but there's a logical reason for it...i went through a lot of rounds with an h&k, sig, springfield, s&w, etc. and the glock, specifically the g17, is the one i've been most consistent on...boggles my mind but the less aiming/thinking i do and the faster i just shoot (bordering on doing a mag dump and getting everyone staring at me) the more accurate i'm with it.

    I'd say I carry about $1500 worth of stuff on my person daily. Fancy doo-dads and whatsits; good gear that works well.

    My most prized possession is the Ti ring I've had on my finger for almost 17 years, if you get my drift. ;)

    you won't know until you try it...you owe me a bottle of bourbon if you do try it and make money, lol.

    what's the saying goes by wayne gretsky and michael jordan about missing 100% of the shots you don't take?

    Haha yeah I haven't felt the need to upgrade. It still has a great camera and it just works. I'll be forced to upgrade soon though. Since we've moved to Texas I don't have service anywhere, so we're going to have to switch carriers.

    I still have a pair of their insulated work pants from 20 years ago. Super tough, just too warm to wear very often where I live. No one carries them near me anymore, unfortunately.
