If you are contemplating still having a Smart watch you cant go wrong with anything garmin. Specifically their Fenix series. You get about 20-30 days off one charge depending on which one you go with in smartwatch mode and if you turn that mode off you are anywhere between 70-100+ days without charge

I know this video is 3 months old so you're probably aware of the new Trex Raptor holster, but man that thing is sweet. I carry my 19 with it and it's super comfy/concealable. And with the monoblock clip it is super slim and takes up little belt space. Would highly recommend (also sweet videos, earned a sub!)

At first I really liked them, but I just ran into some a feeding issue two days ago at the range with one of the four I own. I need to do some more testing. I would recommend the PSA over the shield arms though. I had 4 shield arms mags and had problems with every single one of them. I had replaced my mag catch and everything and almost every time I used them they wouldn’t feed properly. I like how the PSA is over molded with plastic so you can keep your OEM mag catch, it’s nice to be able to run your stock mags and aftermarket mags.

Hey im from australia, what is the poupous of constant carrying, as someone who has only seen a hunting rifle before this really confuses me. great vid though 👍👍
@samde
4 ай бұрын
Hey! Thanks for watching and for your comment. The purpose of constant carrying in the US can be quite different from the perspective you might have in Australia. To give you some context, the US 2nd Amendment was created not just for hunting and sporting, but to enable citizens to defend themselves against a tyrannical government. The US foundation was established on firearms from fighting back against Great Britain. Many Americans, including myself, carry firearms because they see it as a fundamental right, one that unfortunately isn’t viewed the same way globally. If you search for "CCW CCTV footage" or look up crime statistics in the US, you'll see why some people feel the need to carry. Personally, I lived in a high-crime area during college where armed robbery and shootings were common. In the two years I lived there I heard at least five shootings. I currently live in a very low crime area but the main reason I carry is not to harm but to protect. In a worst-case scenario, like a mass shooting, I want to be able to defend myself and others. Personally, I would rather have it on me and never need to use it (which I really hope I never have to in my life) than be in a situation where I am helpless in a life or death scenario and wish I had some means of protection. While the argument that police can handle everything/ protect you from danger, immediate personal defense makes all the difference. I can draw my handgun and stop a potential threat in a matter of seconds vs. the police taking 5-10 minutes to arrive on scene. Thanks again for your comment and I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

I also feel like that's the least of my concerns as getting a CCW in the Bay Area is going to be even more of a tedious process. On another note, you should definitely do a room tour next because I think I spy a DDJ FLX6 back there (a man of culture I see), PLUS I love the sick minimalist gaming setup you got going on in the back with what I believe is the Ikea Karlby countertop as a desk?
