Touché… someone else already pointed this out. That’s a hoodie from a school I went to so I give that one a pass. I here ya though, I hear ya…

🤣😁😆

Thanks! 👊🏻 that’s super encouraging! 👍😁

Ya buddy 😎👊🏻

Good info there. And I agree that if I’m not comfortable with my gear then it’ll eventually wander away it’s way off my carry list.

Haha, touché 👴🏻 I had a bad slide stop/release but everything worked out when I switched back to the OEM release.

👊🏻😎👍

Haha, I probably would. Well… I’m right handed so my right leg is going to be stronger. Generally that would mean I would walk in a counterclockwise circle 🔄 Since my wallet is on my right side then that may actually balance out my stride and allow me to walk straight… 🤔 Haha, I don’t know man 🤦‍♂️😂

Caffeine ☕️👹

Thanks man, it’s good to have you on board 👍

I’m actually getting some Axwell wallets to look at pretty soon. For whatever reason I’m pretty attached to my chunky wallet. But it may be time for a change 🥲

@@downingindustries I carry a leather wallet too, I don’t like the ridge or trayvex wallets either

Ridge are a ripoff for what they are.

Mountain Voyage all day

I’m using the model the Glock 20 full size. AXIS SLIM Gun Make & Model: GLOCK 20/21/21SF Weapon Light Model : Streamlight TLR-7 A

We talked about the “clicking” noise over on IG, that one is still got me puzzles. The only thing I can think of is the connector 🤷‍♂️ I use the ALIAS clip on the weapon side of the holster because it helps in concealment. It’s kinda complicated to explain but it works for me.

😱😱🤯

Just saying, for a guy who doesn't like his shirts to have firearms related stuff on them, I just find it odd that a hoodie is the exception

And he is working the counter at a firearms store. I think that ship has sailed.

I see what your saying…I didn’t get the context the first time. That’s a hoodie from the school I went to, so I guess it’s a little bit of an exception for me.

I came here for this comment 🤣

Maniacal laugh… maniacal laugh 😈

I feel like that’s an 80s or 90s thing 😎

@@downingindustries never leave home without protection 😂

Haha 🥰👊🏻😎

🤣. Nice! A condom holster. Sweet!

😂 Yup 🤣 I’m a sentimentalist, I can’t get rid of things… But your so true 😁

Suarez Street Comp

I prefer Federal HST 124gr 👌

Hey man! We’re in Anchorage. Been up here a few years and absolutely love it ☃️🏔️

@@downingindustriesagreed. Moved up here with the Air Force. Retired and I’m still here.

The 43x holds the same ammo, it’s just slimline version of the 19. 🤷‍♂️ I do have a 19 that I’m working on though. Hopefully I’ll be able to get it in the rotation this year.

Very interesting noticed

I’m not but I hold James in high regard(even if I did bastardize hit light 🫣).

@@downingindustries all good man not hating it’s funny

Gotcha 😅 Did you see the original video on the old channel where I “fixed” the light? I should reupload that one on to this channel 😂

Last week we had 300 plus videos and 25K plus subscribers 😉 We got caught in KZfaqs great guntuber purge. All my old content is still up on Rumble. Links to that platform are in the description of my videos.

I’m assuming you’re his is a serious question 🤔 We currently don’t have the technology to see in the dark without the aid of some source of illumination so I need to carry some sort of illumination… Additionally, a light adds weight to the front of the firearm and that aids in recoil management.

@@downingindustries I know what a light does but you must not have read anything I wrote. It's illegal to draw and point a firearm around unless your life is in danger first.

Let’s try it another way… Why do you think I have a light on my carry pistol? I’m serious, let’s talk this out.

@@downingindustries absolutely i like to ask people why they carry a light on their concealed carry pistol. Typically I give them reasons why they're unnecessary and they usually just get mad and resort to trash talking me because what I say makes sense and they don't have a logical response. I don't know what the reason you use them that's why I asked. I don't like to speculate. I know many people do it to feel like they are a cop or feel cool. Not saying that's you, but others just act that way. Police need them because they pursue armed criminals and have their lights on to find them. But for self defense of a civilian everywhere you're at has enough ambient light to determine if your life is being threatened. And if you can see enough to determine that then you can seen enough to put rounds on target. For home defense I can see the benefit for having a light. But not concealed carry put in public.

Thanks for the civil response. If you watch the video and take into account the other things that I carry then you’d see that I carry a handheld light. That handheld light is what I would use to “look around” and find things or identify potential harm. Most of the time (according to most statistics and such) self defense shootings occurs at very close distances where a light wouldn’t be necessary. Also, most people will go through their whole lives without ever needing to use a firearm for self defense, yet many choose to carry a firearm anyway. I carry a weapon mounted light for the fraction of a chance that I will need to utilize the light during life threatening incident. Obviously I would not pull out a weapon mounted light to search for dropped keys or to simply look around. As you mentioned, pulling out a firearm in a situation is exercising lethal force, so there already has to be a “clear and present danger” for me to even bring the gun I to the equation. I mentioned earlier that a light adds weight to the front of a firearm and how that aids in recoil management. This is reason enough for me to carry with a light attached. I’m not sure how/if you carry but added length and weight below the belt actually helps me conceal the firearm and carry more comfortably. This may not be the case for everyone but it’s the case for me. So in short… I find a light useful in concealing the firearm, aiding in recoil management, and if the off chance that I would need to illuminate an area during a “violent encounter”. I hope that info helps.
