Need a flashlight? I carry one daily, and highly recommend the SureFire G2 Nitrolon. They run about $30 something or less and will fit in your pocket. Its about the same size and shape as the 6P but half the price and half the weight. You can get them in black, yellow, or OD green.

Right now the favorite carry package is:

Sig P-226 9mm (Working on a P-220 in .45acp)
with one extra hi-capacity magazine, sometimes two
SureFire G2 Flashlight
I'm knife poor at the moment, but I have a couple I'm looking at. Trying to find a good one that doesn't break the blade length law. (3.5")

SA Micro Compact with 1 spare mag
Surefire E2 Executive (thinking I need something smaller but dang is that light bright)
and Have added the Kel-Tec P32 in the front pocket as my backup gun. And I have a spare mag on order for it too.

Oh almost forgot the knife it is always one of the three

CRKT M16
Spider-co (Dont remember the name)
Bench made axis lock (the first one they ever came out with)

7,

I like my surefire it has a belt clip and that is the way I wear it. But the belt clip is cheap and will quickly resize its self to your belt thickness so it falls off easy so you have to be carefull. So now I am thinking of getting some sort of sheath for it. So that might be something to consider. Just my $2.00

(1) Sig P229/40 with Black Talons

And/Or

(2) Grendel P12/380 with Black Talon handloads.

BTW Ghost Recon, I thought I was the only one with anything like a Kel-tec backup. The Grendel and Kel-Tec look a heck of a lot alike. Didn't Kel-Tec buy out Grendel a few years ago? That's what I heard.

Here is what I recommend:

In addition to a quality pistol (I love Glocks)

A good holster: something that you can run with that will keep the pistol where it is supposed to be and that covers the trigger guard. Also you want to be able to reholster with one hand, without looking at the holster. This requires a ridged holster that won’t collapse when the pistol is drawn.

At least one supplemental magazine: The problem is your magazine can fail at any time in the gun fight. We call this a phase 2 stoppage. The only way to clear this malfunction is to have an extra magazine. As I was giving this speech to a friend, I took the magazine out of the Glock 23C I was carrying (while leaving the gun in the holster) and looked down at the mag that had just been in the gun and low and behold the follower had bounded up and would not have fed. If I had not had an extra mag on me, I would have had 1 bullet to win the gunfight.

Also, carry the biggest factory magazine you can get. Example: You carry a Glock 26 with a 10 round magazine inserted. Your supplemental magazine should be from a Glock 17 and have a +2 base on it. This gives you 19 rounds and is no more difficult to ware.

A good folding knife: Great backup weapon and tool. Good to carry on your support side for many reasons.

A good flashlight

OC spray: It is really nice to have a non lethal force option. It allows you use it to escape situations where you are not justified to use deadly force. Not only that, if you do have to use deadly force, it looks much better on your behalf if you can say “I tried to escape the situation, the BG kept coming. I pepper sprayed the BG, he kept coming. As a last resort, I employed deadly force, giving loud verbal warnings before I did so.

Nice 'Benzas. :)

My current EDC consists of:

Sebenza.

That's it right now. I'd like to get another flashlight to carry; I have a Streamlight 3N in my work toolbox and it's great. I should probably also get a small can of Fox. And eventually, once I collect the time and money, I'll get my CCW and carry my G19.

I like it.... It is definitly a target gun the size and wieght are high. Accuracy is superb weaver mounting on the barrel. I'm trying to find the carbine conversion for it, then it should be more fun. Not really a fun gun, more of a target gun. For fun you should consider the Walther P22.
