I love looking at these pics. I've gotten a lot of great ideas from the pics and the site. I plan to post my EDC tonight.

[xscamerashyy]

There are a few people that really have their stuff together, and a couple that must have pockets bigger than my EDC bag! haha

[langston302]

I am use to a heavy belt. so a little extra in my off duty pockets isnt much at all.

Ok. I'm a jeans and t-shirt guy, so I sometimes have a bag handy. However, this is always on my body.

• Luminox Blackout watch with County Comm Zulu Band
• AO Aviators
• Streamlight Protac 1L flashlight. 1 CR123 battery, 110 lumens.
• Keychain with paracord braid and a ITP A3 1 AAA light, 3 modes, up to 100 lumens. Awesome little light.
• Homemade Bogota lockpicks. I made these after reading the ITS blog about DIY picks. Made from windshield wiper blade steel. They work well, I made two matched pairs but lost one, so the bend on these doesn't quite match up for carry. Easy enough to make more.
• Beretta Nano 9mm wearing TractionGrips in a homemade Kydex trigger guard holster. Great for deep concealment/appendix carry.
• Homemade Kydex spare mag carrier, clips inside the waist band.
• SOG Mini Aegis plain edge knife.
• Old style mil issue trauma dressing. I keep a super cool trauma kit in my truck and in my EDC bag, however this bandage is slim and fits in the pocket nicely so that's where it goes. I don't always have the bag attached to me so this assures at least I have something on me. To me, this is part of carrying a weapon.
• Homemade leather slim wallet. As mentioned before, I'm a blue jeans guy so I needed a slim wallet to carry to offset everything else I shove in my pockets. Made it out of ultra thin leather and some rivets.
• Not pictured is my iPhone 4s in an Otterbox case. Used it to take the picture.

I like to make as much of my gear as I can, and have found ITS to be a great resource for DIY how-to's and ideas. Sometimes I carry more/other variations of the same setup. This is what I have on me right now, and pretty much at all times. Glad to see I'm not the only one who needs a heavy belt.

Just as a reminder about the rules (because we want everyones entry to be counted!):

Your profile must include a photo. Whether it's actually you or in the case of OPSEC, something other than the default "no photo" image.

It's cool if you don't want to show your face but it's even cooler to fill out your profile a little bit. We are a community, kinda like virtual neighbors! Won't you be my neighbor? (haha)

[kyle baum]

Thanks for the heads up. Added a photo from my last "training session."

• Galaxy S3 wearing a Seidio ACTIVE (not shown, it took the picture)

In my pockets:

• CRKT My Tighe, assisted open
  
• Bandaids and neosporin (this "first aid" kit needs some work, clearly)
  
• Keys (car, apartment, rifle, etc)
  
• Microfiber cloth
  
• Flash drives (16gb storage and utility, 4gb bootable with untraceable OS, 4gb Win 7 installer, USB/MicroSD adapter)
  
• Wallet with money and cc
  
• Earphones (little leather pouch)
  
• Pen, ballpoint, black
  
• Compression strap (bad knee flares up sometimes, but it could be used as a tourniquet)
  
• Epipen (allergic to peanuts)
  
• Ziploc (never know if I'm going to have to protect some device from water or collect things)
  
• Cables for my phone (to charge from a computer, to attach a USB device, to output HDMI)
  
• SKD PIG gloves

In my boot:

• Sarge folder

My pack (which I know doesn't count) has lots more (flint and steel, solar charger for my cell, laptop, etc).
