Carry
EDC (Everyday Carry)
The gun and gear a person carries on their person every day for self-defense and daily use.
Everyday carry refers to the firearm — and often the supporting kit (holster, spare magazine, light, knife, medical) — that someone carries routinely for personal protection. A good EDC setup balances concealability, comfort, capacity, and shootability, because the best carry gun is the one you'll actually have on you when needed.
Popular EDC pistols trend toward compact and micro-compact 9mms that hide well yet shoot well, paired with a quality belt and holster. Choices are personal: a deep-concealment .380 in a pocket, or a full-size pistol under a jacket, can both be 'right' depending on lifestyle, dress, and local law.
