What does a police officer carry off duty?
Today we are taking a look at my everyday carry. Including what I think are essential things to have on you and things that you can probably go without. Everyday carry is an essential part of being prepared for life.

    Personally I just don’t really get carrying cuffs off duty. Unless you live in your jurisdiction, it would just feel weird imho 🤷‍♂️

    man i'd trade that 43x in for a 26, this way you have pretty much the same width/feel as the 19 and 17. Just my 2 cents

    I have the same flashlight I've had it for 10 years to carry every day hasn't went out on me yet, good thing about it you can put a double A 1l or even a triple a battery in it

    Good video, and thoughts about your edc. As a 22 year LEO vet (uniform, detective, & negotiator) I carried much the same, except the Glocks were .40 cal. You did not mention "on call" status, which will dictate more duty like gear. One suggestion: For any non-uniform, including off-duty, always have your badge and cuffs. Also get a badge/ID wallet. Lastly have your radio handy, in your vehicle. I think you made a good decision to skip the alcohol. Keep up your good work, thanks for your dedication to service, and be careful.

    So you guys carry guns and police gear off duty ? If I am off duty... I am off duty. I have my cell phone, my keys and my wallet. Dont need the stress in my free time. Oh by the way. You should not carry a wallet in your backpocket. It messes with your hip etc. In the long run ( or short term for some) it can fuck up your lower body. Stopped doing it a few years back and I feel the differences now, besides having no real problems prior to the change.

    Excellent choices all. There are several manufacturers that make pocket mag holders that don’t get in the way and look like a pocket knife clip. I’ve got to carry a spare mag. Stay safe my friend.

    I like the G26 for all around use, you can use different sizes mags depending on the season/dress needs, etc. I usually have a pinky extension with 1 or 2 extra rounds but flush fit sometimes if it's really hot 🥵

    You should look into emerson knives. The wave feature along with general construction in ergos and grip makes me feel they're perfect for an officer. They're also only chisel sharpened so you just have to worry about sharpening one side, great for field maintenance. Also perhaps a streamlight wedge as it's way more comfortable that a cylindrical light, unless you want it for self defense. Also no gshock? 😢

    Look into "N-ear" earpiece. Little spendy but worth it in the long run. Don't have to replace every so many months and absolutely 0 ear fatigue. Also see you got soem patches, I'll have to send you one to add to your collection.

    yeah, I got safe life defenses vest in the same configuration you got it. the panels I got were 3a+. side coverage is ass even with the extra $80 side panels and the carrier DOES NOT accommodate up-armoring with hard plates. Also got their magazine and baton holsters and hate them both.

    Having cuffs on you all the time you carry is important-a defense attorney will own you if God forbid you have to shoot someone-he’s going to say you never had any intention of arresting the suspect-you wanted to kill him.Our State police agency requires it.

    honestly i have to say is that don’t worry. it’s okay if you don’t carry a spare magazine, realistically you only need 1-2 rounds to stop a threat with a 9mm. the only thing is some people are wimps and scared so they carry like 5 magazines with them however 15 rounds is definitely enough. stay safe!

    • @jmuk3571

      @@jmuk3571 yeah, that’s what drugs do to you, i get 1-2 rounds may not “kill” someone but it’ll stop the threat. and you should carry 2 or 3 magazines in your car, now on a person maybe 1 magazine is fine, but you can never have to much magazines!
