       Well this week is thanksgiving here in the states.  I don't thing I need to go into detail of the holiday I'm quite sure even the international readers understand it.  So this is a short week for me at the shop.  Ill take it we run long and hard hours. I'm just glad I no longer run field operations.  the old saying was the hole in the ground does not care what day it is so holidays never seam to effect us.  we work threw them.  the lights need to stay on the cars and trucks need to run and the energy need to flow.   so we do our best to make sure it all happens and cheep cost and the most effective ways possible.      I'm sure you are all thinking exactly what does this have to do with every day carry and EDC culture?  well nothing.  It has exactly zero to do with it.  but its my blog and Ill write what I want I guess.  so what I'm saying is at times you will get a peak behind the curta...

    The big part of EDC is what's in your pockets or on your person at all times.  I have a few items I simply will not leave the home without.  for a hand full of reasons.  1 its a simple tool that is used evert single day such as my phone.  I know we all can't go with out them any longer the phone is now an extension of our lives.  We play games, text use it for navigating the city what ever.  they can also save our lives by looking up how to fix something or calling the emergency hotline because we are facing danger.  the second item that is with me the wallet,  I use a OPEN SEA leather top sider as the wallet I carry daily it contains some cash, two cards, my drivers license and my CC license  I have a bifold that gucci and a bifold montblanc I use when traveling    it has more items such as my health ins cards, more credit cards and what not.  I dont have that on me daily due to bulk and the fact I don't need the...

   well about a year ago I decided to grab a 12G PUMP ACTION with a box  magazine.  and come across the civet 12.  and was floored at the price.  At first I was like okay this thing has to be a pipe bomb or something.  but after checking some reviews , and not seeing any thing bad I decided to well give it a shot.  placed my order and a few days later it sowed up at my local gun shop.       After work I ran over filled out all the paperwork and brought her home.  So lets run the specs the furniture is synthetic black, has a 5+1 capacity and takes 3' shells.  the weapon will accept saiga magazines so that is a plus those mags are plentiful and cheep. the barrel is 19'' and threaded has ghost ring sights as well as a rail for ease to mount and sight the front pump has a lip for non slipping when operating at speed.   if you do not like the factory hardware it can be easily switched out for anything  ...

 Well I really want to post at a minimum of once a week.  I'm knocking around on Wednesday. I know its Friday today but ill ask for forgiveness now.  As I sit here now at my normal job just trying to get something down for the week.   Not exactly sure what to put on this page right now.  concentrating on consistency I think. Forcing myself to sit down and put pen to paper sort to say.   I plan on getting this more engaging soon.  punch it up with photos and what not.  Ill blog on politics keeping an open eye on both sides of the political spectrum.  calling out what I feel is good and bad from all the liars and chief in the river of power.  I have some trips planned and Ill let you all know about that and how they go.  also have some toy/ comic shows lined up and a few record shows in the mix as well.  like I said doing that stuff off sets the cost of the other stuff I'm into not only that but yes I do love comics and...

 Hello and thank you for stopping by and checking out the blog.   I have not done one since the early 2000's   it was about record collecting.   As I still dabble in the collecting world I mostly sell and deal in them.  As well as in comic books and toys.  I use them to off set the cost of my real passion.  every day carry items.   Yep EDC watches, knives, wallets, flashlights... and yes GUNS.  so with this I'll be doing reviews of what come in and out of the collection.   I will share photos of travel's and this will be the behind the curtain of my life.\ Now for some of my stats lol  I have a few degrees, physics, history and political science.  I do BBJ and escrema.  I am an avid shooter and out doors man.   I work in the energy industry mostly in gas and oil fields in the north east.  my passion is photography and travel.   I have two of my own children and four steep k...
