I got more questions from you internet people about his belt line than anything else. So I asked him, "Louis everyone wants to know, do you wear all that stuff daily?"
Louis replies, "No I walk around naked."
With a sigh, he goes into a break down of what everything is for.
Two slugs - He carries a double barrel shotgun as his truck gun but doesn't keep it loaded to avoid breaking any laws as he travels from state to state. Should he need the shotgun all he has to do is pluck the two slugs from his belt. He prefers slugs since he can make torso shots out to 100 yards if needed or do a hostage rescuing headshot at closer ranges.
Pistol - For classes he carries a single stack 1911 that has been rendered completely inoperable with a plugged barrel. He passes it around at the start of every day and requires everyone to examine it to be sure it can't fire. Before waving it towards any students he checks it to confirm he's handling the dummy gun. This works out better than using a blue gun since he can demo clearance procedures on it just like an operating gun, however it is unsettling to have it pointed at you. On the street he carries a Frankenstein double stack 1911 that's some Para and some Colt.
Backup Pistol - He likes to carry an XD subcompact for backup however he doesn't wear it during the class.
Holsters - He has two custom made kydex holsters a friend of his made, one on each hip. They aren't fancy. The right hand holster has an extreme cant to it. About FBI + 30 degrees. He wears it like this to prevent the butt from sticking out when bending over.
Flashlights - He has three flashlights. The one on the reel is a Safariland he's testing. The weapon light is a Surefire that goes on a rail on his double barrel shotgun. He can also use it for a backup to his handheld light. His handheld light is a Surefire Executive with this scary bezel face that looks like it could be used to smash a guys face in if needed.
Knives - That's a Surefire pocket knife he uses for general cutting needs. The other knife is some type of special bladed knife that he says he "always wanted" so now that he has it he "has to carry it".
Pocket Watch - There is a pocket watch on one of the little chains going into his pocket. I forgot what is on the other chain. Maybe someone else remembers?
Keys - "I have to have my keys."
Multi Tool - He is always fixing something on the range, so I would think the multi tool he couldn't live without.
That's about it. If I missed something or got something wrong please chime in and correct me. Oh one last thing he told me.
"My underwear is blue."
Great I need to run out and get blue underwear now.
