Relationships are always give and take. The longer I live though I’ve come to realize that the more you give then the more you can take as well. Kind of a win win.
 
I'll be the first to admit I'm old fashioned.

I look at it the same as renting a car vs buying a car. I don't see any 'commitment' with boyfriend/girlfriend status. Sure, you can say whatever you want. But until there's a ring and a marriage license, it's just words. Studies show this to be true far too often. 4 years is plenty of time to know if it's right or not. Nothing's perfect, but you'd be surprised how much things change with a real commitment.

I disagree with you.

Any number of married people are married in name only, and cheat on each other left and right.

We are more committed to each other than many married couples. Committment is in the soul and heart...not paperwork and jewelry.

I couldn’t agree more, commitment comes from inside. The paperwork is making more lawyers rich now than not.
I’m not anti marriage for anyone that wants it, just saying that the piece of paper doesn’t mean much now days. Commitment is sticking with someone who is sick, cleaning vomit up and comforting them, putting up with a bad attitude when someone is hurting.
 
Nice handgun. I carry a Taurus tcp 308 due to its size and low cost. It easily fits in my front pocket and if it gets scratched by anything else I put in there I don’t really mind too much. I think an everyday carry is going to catch some abuse so I don’t recommend anything too expensive. Multi tool is always a must, and since Mine has two knives I don’t carry another. Trying to keep weight down, and started wearing suspenders recently to help! I also keep a couple hundred in twenty dollar bills folded and hidden in my wallet in case the card readers ever go down. A little cash is always a good thing. I like the flashlight idea, but have lost about three of the damned things so far. (Think the son likes em too.....). I’ve gotten used to the light on my phone now, but may get another for backup. Glad you reminded me of the extra clip, been meaning to get one when out one day.

I just got a taurus .380 tcp.

Did you have reliability problems?

I seems like it fails to feed on the last round in the magazine, but maybe its a mag problem or just because the gun is new and needs broken in.

It seemed to feed Winchester target ammo much better than the Remington green box.

The Winchester FMJs had a flat nose, and the Remington was round nose.

The malfunction was, consistantly, a failure to feed. No stovepipes, no failure to eject.

Mine has never had an issue. I will take it out soon and send a few magazines thru it and let you know if I get anything different.
 
I changed my EDC pack some. This is what I have. My cell phone, charges, USB cables, note pad, maps, some tools are not shone and I don't own any guns or firearms.

If anyone was wondering, that ziplock is filled with clothes lint from dryer. On the top left in silver package is food ration bars mainstay 3600, tasty (9) 400 calorie bars.
The med kit is my own make, not the original contents. The pill bottle has several types of OTC meds. Round black thing is a Vivitar PV Series 8x21 lens. My Dependon Sheffield English long knife. Sardine can is a survival kit. Everything else should be identifiable, if not just ask.

At the bottom black baton ESP 21" hardened (low profile version - slim handle), form the left two lighters, classic Clipper and piezoelectric, flashlight Convoy S2, multitool Pro (polish brand for workshops and handymans, seems to be enough durable), Lansky pocket sharpener, magnesium block with ferrocerium, glue sticks and form the right some chapstick, rubber bands and wires, insulating tape, stronh thread with needle, small capsule is snuff (free from tobacco) and 3M ears protection, folding bottle (17oz) and in ziplock bag some tissues, wet wipes and Katadyn micropour tablets. Green BCB pocket is small first aid kit but completly natural and I mean by that natural painkillers, dressings and so on. All of this is inside this black waist bag (we call it "kidney") custom made by polish company Spearpoint. It's capacious and I left lots of space there for some protein bars or whatever. Capacity is adjustable.

Forgot about Spyderco folding knife - it's always in my pocket.

Yerba EDC is normally what is on or about your person, not what is in your bag, Your EDC for example is almost the same as my Get Home Bag .

My EDC is CRKT Journeyer Liner Locknife, Blazer PB207 lighter, Spiderfire Tactical flashlight, Cell phone, Wallet, Shatterproof prescription shades, Cotton kerchief, Mini Compass, Tactical pen, Keys with Blade -Tech knife sharpener, Self winding watch.
 
Well I prefer to have those in one place. Besides when changing clothes you need to remember to move it. It's much easier to me but hey, whatever works for you is good. To Get Home Bag I would add steel bottle, rescue blanket and ham radio.
In this place of Europe where we are buffer between EU and Russia, we understand our geostrategy position and all possible threats. Maybe that's why we wearing more?

Very fair point mate, I like my stuff in my pockets or on my belt, but I also keep spares of some things in my pack. I honestly dont envy Polands geographical location between Mad Vlad and the up and coming New greater Germania . The Polish folks I know around here are worried about BOTH Russian land grabbing and EU imperialism, prolly why they live here happily with us.
 
SilentEarth, we even call EU a "Fourth Reich". Schengen agreement is ok but road that EU chose and follow it totally unacceptable. Back to EDC, I prefer heavy way now bacause after there will be no time to train and used to it.

the EU has been known as the "Fourth Reich" by many here for a long long time.
