My mind, my voice, a good pair of shoes on my feet and my will to live.

Back when it was legal here I used to carry a Leatherman, but I concidered it to be a tool, not a weapon. A bit slow to deploy anyway.

I have a ccw, and usually carry a nine (Baretta), but after a family member of mine was killed because someone took her weapon from her and shot her with it, I decided I need more training to feel comfortable packing anywhere but when I go out in the mountains. The mountain lions and coyotes are less likely to take my weapon from me and kill me with my own gun.

You know, I have always wondered if persons carrying more than a pair of combat knives (or guns) expect to grow extra arms in a fight... :confused:

See and there lies the biggest fear I have if I were ever allowed to carry (which being Canadian will be around the same time as pigs learning to fly) I just don't have the confidence that the weapon wouldn't be used against me. However, I guess if the laws of my land were different, my training would be different and so would my confidence.

when I'm not at work, I carry a glock 22 and glock 27 concealed. A cold steal xl voyeger pocket knife. Surfire, or Stream light flashlights, depending on which is charged. My wallet with my cradentials. the most important item i carry and make sure is fully joy, is my cell phone.

And when I'm at work, I add a Colt M-4(M-16), Remington 870 12gauge shot gun with all the goodies, OC spray, expandable batton, three pair of hand cuffs, and as a side arm I carry the glock 35. Again, the most important tools I carry are my radio and my cell phone.

Are you sure you want to know why I carry all of this?

Sure, I think I already know some of the answers, but go ahead....
