This needs to series like cartridge talks. Get a guest in? Quick 10 minute pocket dump. Vortex employee? Pocket dump.

We didn't cover the pages of notes mark edc

My EDC. Does include a multi tool ( Leatherman surge ) because I do outside manual labor ( farrier) and it gets used 10 times a day easy. Not saying everyone should do the same but for me it's absolutely essential. My knife is a spyderco Delica ( straight edge ) . Wallet one of those super thin card type wallet carried in a shirt pocket. My flash light is a streamlight micro stream. ( blue, so Noone steals it) watch is a Casio G-shock 1500A. Ear buds Tozo t12. Cell phone ( Samsung S10 because phones are not important to me so I take my wife's hand me downs) and last is my pistol. This really irritates people. Smith & Wesson M&P Sheild Gen 1 in 40S&W. With a spare 7 round mag. I bought this at a Cabela's on clearance for $199.99 6 years ago and add a hoage beaver tail grip sleeve to increase the surface are so I can get a proper grip on the thing. I get people EDC shaming me all the time. I really don't care. It my set up and I never tell anyone they should do as I do or say.

A few great topics for you guys to cover #1 I know you guys deal with Hornady a fair bit but discuss other popular brands and hunting bullets, nosler, norma, berger, and BARNES (I share ryans fan boy-ness for them) #2 a complete hunting setup rifle, cartridge, optic, binos, pack, kill kit, everything you would bring on a full day hike/ spot and stalk weekend hunt for american big game #3 agreed with posted below employees EDC pocket dump #4 what day to day operations look like for each of your jobs at vortex ryan, mark, jimmy

Heck yeah. I carry the m&p 2.0 4.6” 10mm with a tlr1 hl, holosun 407ca3x2 a lot, awesome pistol.

It's always crazy to me to see posts on Reddit where they pull out a backpack worth of stuff from their pockets. Brennan's setup isn't unrealistic for me compared to the amount of stuff I already carry. I carry keys, wallet, airpods, and a comb in my left pocket and 2 phones in my right and I feel bulky already. Planning on getting my ccw permit soon so I'm trying to be more conscious of what I have room for in my pockets/on my waist.

Great info guys!

6” channelocks, 8” crescent wrench and utility knife sometimes flashlight

I carry a GIANT edc knife...I carry the Cold Steel Rajah 2 knife.... it's heavy AF but it has been the most useful edc knife that I have ever owned. Plus, after 2 years of carrying, it doesn't seem that heavy anymore. The other VERY IMPORTANT edc that I don't leave home without is a defensive pepper spray.... the strongest I have tested is "DPS Black Label ".... The stuff is no joke . It's like having an army in your pocket. People can't hit what they can't see

Need to add more of this type Of content. 👍🏼

I get asked about EDC constantly because I am an armed self defense instructor. My basic rule is this, carry only what you have a need for and it should be quality goods. All the other items you think you need or fear you may need are candidates for your go bag or your get home bag. Don’t over do it when it comes to EDC.

Fantastic content thanks for sharing the expertise on the guns. You boys need to up your game on the knives and start looking at Chris Reeve Koenig and shirogorov. Those are serious cutting tools. Keep up the great work love your channel.

Breaking into the EDC world!

Hello, very good podcast! I have question. Which model of optic would you recommend for .223. Fox hunting, and target shooting. Up to 200m, and budget is not an issue. Tomorrow is a big hunting fair, so I would like to buy one. I know there is a different level of quality between a models, but I am just not sure.

what pants is Brennan wearing with that pocket on the side.

The nub on the Thyrm SwitchBack is not for striking. It is a leverage point for your thumb when using a technique similar to the Syringe Method of employment.

Check out the „Swiss Card“ by the people that make the classic Swiss Pocket knife. Small but a helper in so many not so „manly“ situations which I need much more often then having to defend myself against agressors.

I've gotten so many odd looks from people when I take my knife out in a coffee shop to open up the vent hole in the kids

I love this podcast. I eat knowledge.

Leatherman style ps. It’s a compact multitool that fits on a key ring. And it’s TSA compliant.

Brennan's is a realistic EDC. Unless you're walking around like a fool doing grocery shopping or getting lunch in a damn utility belt with a million pouches like Batman, that's about the limit of what a normal civilian can conceivably and comfortably EDC carry. There are some parts of the EDC community that have completely gone off the deep end and have lost sight of what "Every day" means. No one's rocking a full harness and utility belt every time they're stepping out of the door unless it's their job.

I know he mentioned he didn’t use his multitool, but if you’re going to carry a knife anyway, imo it may as well be a leatherman multitool. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Brennans watch? cant tell

Lol..its a notch to carry my G19 I can't believe he carry a 5 inch fs gun ..smh

Knew the dude on the the left was gay. Hates 30 WSW and goes to unicorn conferences. Totally gay and complains too much.

“How many holsters have you gone through”? “I feel like…. Uhm… close to a dozen” Do you FEEL like or do you THINK. This younger generation and their precious little feelings. Uhg! And they carry guns. I hope that if you fire your weapon at someone you are THINKING and not going on your feelings

T rex arms and no light i hate hoslter with a gun light if im gonna put a light on my gun ill ware owb.

Take a shot every time they say "super" Cringe
