EDC Bag (Every Day Carry) What do ya'll use?

[JoeyBones]

That's pretty gay. Don't go jumping off anything or anything.

(Funking with some paracord right meow...)

ha, as far as paracord, i probably now have 20' on me at all times. stupid stormdrane making things look so cool! haha

[JoeyBones]

sorry for no updates. I have both bags and both are actually fantastic in their own respects and for their different functions. I've actually switched to the Pantac for full on daily work carry due to the nature of the pack and the laptop padded area. No name brand or not, the materials and hardware used are top notch and so is the stiching.

I've used the Maxped bag the past few weekends, the first being a jaunt to Helen Ga. for Oktoberfest at which point, i carried about everyone's crap and all the souvenir mugs i could manage to drink down. The second was this past weekend at Road Atlanta for Petit Le Mans, where it functioned to carry swag, water, and my meds (and advil for everyone at the camp site for the mornings...*HANGOVER*)

The only additions I've made were to purchase some MALICE clips, and Grimlocks for use on the webbing. The maxped came with an m4 mag pouch that fits my cell phone perfectly, and a Haffafug that at this time has nothing in it, but looks nice wearing my name plate and flag. ha

I ordered a Maxpedition Sitka, and supposedly Pantac is sending me a bag in trade for an evaluation and complete write up... We will see how they stand up!

29. Secondary EDC bag
30. Gun made of bullets
31. Bullet made of guns

These got me laughing. And if the world is ending, or shit is going down:

-cigar or cigarettes with lighter or matches
-pint of something strong

I agree that I'd much rather carry on my person, but due to regs at work and about 99% of all manufacturing plants in the US, they have fairly strict policy on no concealed weapons...which is funny because all but 1 had no clue that I had a weapon with me since it was...concealed. I did get questioned at the one plant that had a metal detector though as I walked in, saw it and walked back out and locked it in the car....

Also, if you have to wonder when you'll ever need a weapon, put yourself in a situation like the students at VT...if JUST 1 of them had a weapon they could have saved the lives of dozens.

I dont want to debate guns, just would like to find an ideal briefcase/backpack to use for my daily needs that will keep everything organized.

btw, anyone else find it difficult to actually read Mr. Sleeve's posts with his avatar right there?

thread delivered a good lulz to srs ratio.

Nothing screams "there's a gun in here!" to 99% of people. They're just way too oblivious/unconcerned about their surroundings. Except maybe a grown man wearing a fanny pack

YES THAT You have beat me too it

Yeah I have MT, PA, permits and will get a FL and UT permits when I have both the time and the money (at the same time) to take the approved course and submit the forms.

When I am working there is little time to go to anything and normaly I am out in the middle of NOWHERE just the way I like it. I am county/rural kid so I HATE THE CITY towns over 5k people are annoying to me lol. And why are you implying that Ohio is worth going to, its nearly as bad as Iowa

What is going on... why is the world ending??? Are mr. sleeve and hannah montanna going to save the world?

I believe Milliey is still to pedo to be saving the earth with so there for I must say I would not be repopulating the earth with her. The world is not ending but you never know when bad shit will go down. That and there is the old aesop's fable about the ant and the grass hopper, I guess I kinda took that to heart as a kid. That and spending more time with my g-Parents (depression kids) and growing up on a farm in the middle of nowhere has rubbed off on me at an early age. Frankly I am so very very thank full for it.

Check out Chrome bags. Not sure if it will fit all 119 items, but at least when you look at it, it won't scream "there's a gun in here!"
