*I know you're looking at my keys. If you want to know how to make your own, stay tuned...*
"To preserve liberty, it is essential that the whole body of people always possess arms, and be taught alike, especially when young, how to use them..."
-Richard Henry Lee
A couple weeks ago I was watching game 6 of the NBA Finals (notice i said "watching" and not "enjoying") with some friends when all of a sudden, boom! The lights go out. While everyone began to try to open the flashlight app on their smartphones, I calmly reached into my pocket and pulled out my mini flashlight. I handed it to the owner of the house, he reset the circuit breaker, and we continued to watch the game. While I was putting my flashlight back into my pocket, someone asked me a question. "You carry a flashlight on you all the time?" My reply, of course I do! It just seems natural to me, which made me think. What should a man carry on his person everyday? What is the basis for a good Everyday Carry (EDC)? I think it's pocket dump time... This is a picture of what I carry on my person, every single day. It has evolved over the years, but I have used every piece multiple times and was definitely glad that I had it.
An EDC is very personal and should be tailored to the carrier's daily needs. It should contain the essentials you need to carry out your daily life, but not be so bulky as to the point that you don't want to actually carry it all. Post a pic of your EDC pocket dump on Instagram. Use the hashtag #MCHQPocketDump and tag the @ManCaveHQ page. You may just get it reposted!

AuthorKeep in mind that I am by no means a gun expert. I have had some safety, handling, and shooting training, but nowhere near the amount I feel is needed to claim the "expert" title. With that being said, I am a man that owns a LOT of firearms, knives, and gear! I have been shooting since I could hold a rifle and have even competed in and won a few competitions. The advice and tips that I give are based on personal experience, but are by no means to be taken as law. Please consult a trained, certified professional for all your firearms needs. Enjoy! Archives
