Carry Setup Checklist

Before I call any carry setup “ready,” it has to pass this checklist. Keep it simple, reliable, and repeatable. Fancy gear does not replace consistency.

Daily Carry Checklist

  • Confirmed reliability with your defensive ammo.
  • Holster retention and trigger coverage verified.
  • Belt and holster position tested for comfort while moving, driving, and sitting.
  • Optic/iron backup zero confirmed and screws checked.
  • Spare mag carry method practiced, not just purchased.

Training Checklist

  • Cold-start draw-to-first-shot drills at realistic distance.
  • One-handed manipulations and reload reps.
  • Malfunction clearing with your actual carry setup.
  • Low-light validation with your real carry light configuration.
