Not even a Skittles dispenser?
a terrible oversight!
A Batman pez dispenser is wayyy more tactical.
just when you get to thinking you know someone!!!
Single shot Skittle dispenser? Or Full Semi-Auto?
Grevlain if your going for practicality single for tactical situation you need fully-semi automatic.
The best part of your EDC is that it was mostly gifts. Thrifty. :-D
hell0philip lol
I stopped paying attention when you said no throwing stars. Then no hook, how can you be taken seriously without a grappling hook. You must be paranoid to carry all that! I'm an over achiever...
+Chance Carlton haha! You are THAT guy eh?!?!
Chance Carlton well said.
2 throwing knifes and blade can hit someone before they reach there holster. Just saying
Their*
@@theoffor647 knives are scary up close. No doubt
Ya'll are freakin paranoid. I don't even wear pants. I just carry a glock.
haha
So you Rock out with your Glock out' XD
pants are over rated!
I'm dead.
hah n1
*It's so true the two kinds of EDC guys you mentioned.*
*One guy will ask you even need to carry a gun, or a knife ...*
*The other will complain you have only one knife, no backup gun, and don't carry three spare mags.*
*Just found your channel, new subscriber.*
*I like your non-overly-tacticool approach to things.*
You seem to carry a normal-ish amount of stuff. I dig the tourniquet option there. That is why people make these videos. For other people to learn from. Thanks for sharing with us.
+shox rox ice nothing fancy. Thx!
shox rox ice if ya have a belt ya don’t need a tourniquet,jst my opinion n I feel that if I felt the need to carry all that crap around everyday I’d diagnose myself with paranoid schizophrenia and or become a hermit n live in my closest,I carry a small flashlight on my key ring n occasionally a pocket knife (but don’t live in a war zone) I live in Myrtle Beach South Carolina
Zak ? Belts make crappy torniquetes lot of data says improvised tq’s don’t work.
A belt doesn't get tight enough and if it slips it could send a deadly clot into the rest of the blood stream. Also never remove a tourniquet for the same reason wait and let the paramedics or Emergency Medics take care of it.
you come off as down to earth.... glad you're on our side....
I try to be pretty chill. Thanks bro.
I like that he started with the shoes. Every one forgets them in their edc.
could just have very tactical feet and don't need shoes lol.
Do those come in black or camo or desert tan?
KainusGulch LOL they vary greatly depending on the owner lol mine would work great as snow camo, but show up like a neon light anywhere else lol
John McClane did alright with out any shoes. My feet aren't tactical enough to match his though
Can't agree enough. Did an Active Shooter class and the first thing I did after was buy three pairs of quality running shoes. I should have taken pictures of the bruises around the arches of my feet from sprinting around corners, using cover, and dodging fire. I always, always have shoes I could hoop in, on now.
Don't be the grappling hook guy say's the guy carrying a surpressed .22 in his backpack! hahaha...just showing some love! Great setup. Looking forward to the video on the RATS T setup.
+manageablerecoil haha! Touché- you win this round
You can't win with the EDC guy. You're either carrying too much or not enough
+Greg M so I have realized!
Well, if ur carrying to much, challenge them to a fight. And shut them up
Rusty Shackleford yes, if every5hing you are carrying is useful and you can use them. If they are in another room, if u have a flash bang grenade or some shit, yes you have an advantage (if u know how to use them)
I found your channel because of another gun RUclipsr shit-talking you and I've got to say, you're one of the most charismatic and knowledgable RUclipsrs I watch. All the information you've provided I've validated to the point I now trust you as a credible source and I genuinely enjoy watching your videos be it training, lectures, etc. Keep up the good work.
Love the vids, love how you approach certain topics. Keep up the great material!!! I've watched tons of EDC vids and I have to be honest I haven't taken much from the others but a freaking flashlight is genius. I normally always have 1-2 in my vehicle but on person is a great idea,because we cant always get to our vehicles. You just single handedly upgraded my EDC. Thank you sir.
i like it. i carry a pen light, just more comfortable. i also often carry a multitool, i have little kids and always am fixing something.
I love how he drops the knife and it lands ever so perfectly.
🧐🧐🧐
Love your vids, John. What a great and positive attitude you have...real genuine man.
John your hysterical and fun to watch. Keep on making videos and being real👍🏼
Good perspective from a trained professional. Thx!
As a reformed theology guy, I would add a bottle opener in the event that you were attacked by a stout or a porter, but other than that, I think you have your bases covered. :)
The Treyvax wallets have a bottle opener on them :D
Also that utilikeythingy he has also has a bottle opener as well as a file a couple small flat screwdrivers and a pair of tweezers.
www.trueutility-store.com/multi-tools-c2/true-utility-keytool-p19
Jim Aldridge I saw a self defence video that suggested carrying a bottle opener as a weapon to break fingers.
John seems that he may a Reformed lean about him, any ideas?
+skyisred2 that's the rumor
Man I like this guy! John you put out a great vibe it makes watching your vids enjoyable. I can honestly say you have a great attitude towards proper gun control. I see so many ass hats out their that take everything so serious they forget to enjoy the firearm. Teaching respect for the firearms with the proper attitude not just how bad ass a person is. Thanks for the great content.
This video intro really showcases John's excellent sense of humor. I look forward to training with him soon. Great video as always.
I'm more of a mindset guy. Mostly what I try to take away from these edc videos are the general principles of what to have on your person, outside of the normal pocket lint which seems to boil down to:
1 functional, durable clothes
2 heavy duty belt that can carry the weight of a holster
3 reliable handgun w extra magazine
4 a good sturdy knife
5 flashlight
6 something to stop major bleeding (tourniquet)
And ninja throwing stars, never leave home without them.
Even if you left home nude, duct tape those ninja stars to you.

“Don’t where overt tacticool gear so you don’t look like a gun guy”......hence WPS and 200k subscribers, which will be 1mil within 4 days of 1 & 4 watch AND a wakeup!
God Bless you & yours Mr. Lovell! Keep’em comin brother!
Even the knife knows to stand and show respect around him. That’s the true sign of a man.
5 years ago "im just an instructor...i don't own the company...." yeah......things changed in 5 years. great work John! you grew so much...we grew with you.
I hear you on the Surefire lights. I still carry one because I know they're the best, but I do wish the bezel was more compact.
Solid video... Thanks... I think I'll start carrying a RATS on me instead of relying on the one in my kit in the car.
Your channel is starting to blossom, John. Keep it up!!
I watched this after seeing your discussion with Bryan / ITS tactical. I love your thought process and your sense of humor. This was a great video to learn about you some more!
Love Bryan. Cool dude. Thanks for commenting.
Come on John, with that beautiful hair we know you EDC a can of dapper Dan and hair brush ;)
+Shane K hahahhaha #busted
You forgot your go go gadget spring loaded boots for jumping tall buildings in a single bound and your go go gadget helicopter hat to fly off into the sunset lol.
🙌😂
First, Yankee Marshall has NOTHING on Instructor Zero and he shows appendix carry a lot. If you aren't competently trainer, any kind of carry is dangerous. Next, being military or ex-military doesn't qualify you as an expert in firearms. There are desk jobs in the military. And finally, where are your credentials as an instructor to throw shade at Mr. Lovell? I won't resort to character degradation as you did but don't talk shit if you ain't shit.
campsite a Yankee Marshall? hahahaha....That dude couldn't fight his way out of a paper bag...BTW, what's an ex-mil or whatever supposed to look and act like? Do they all have to be alike?
5:06
I've noticed with EVERYONE, including myself, that we all speed up our speech when we demonstrate a quick movement while talking normally.
Great video as usual John. Liked that you started with the shoes. Also comfortable clothing. People forget that being able to move easily is key. I guess most instructors want to focus on the cool stuff rather than what is really important.
Always informative and entertaining. Found your sling video while looking at options for my AR. Have since watched everything and even made the Girls, wife and daughters, watch your situational awareness stuff. Keys in your hand and head on a swivel. It was nice for them to hear it from someone other than cop dad. Also have changed my drills cause yours make more sense. I find the whole warrior poet mentality something I can relate to as well. Lol also shared your segment about tactical accuracy with some of the guys I shoot with. Some times good enough is good enough. Thanks again for the information and all you do.
I wear my rat-t the same way.. great minds think alike! lol only thing I usually have extra is a lighter of some sort. really like the Emerson !
awesome! great minds indeed! Or we are both idiots....either way...we are dumb or smart together!
Dude where is your pocket ah-64D longbow attack helicopter??
Love the video! The sarcasm fits well with the daily jokers but the simple practicality of your carry items van put all that to rest. Keep doing what you do and thanks for the educational witty videos!
I'm a fan of "what's in your pocket" videos.
I enjoyed this one, thanks.
underwear back up man... two is one, one is none
Tindall Knives I read this at the wrong time .. elevator everyone was looking at me like I was crazy I was Laughing so hard. 👊
Tindall Knives - All joking aside, I wear briefs for support of ‘ye old wedding tackle and regular boxer shorts over the briefs. 24/7 365. You’d honestly be surprised how handy rocking 2 pairs of underwear can be, in literally dozens of situations. I can’t stand boxer briefs because they ride down. I know, I know TMI! Solid funny comment though! 😂😂🇺🇸🗽🦅🇦🇹
Saved my bacon more than once.
My father used to do work with getting people out of gangs and they would wear two pairs of underwear so when they would get arrested and in jail they could wash one pair in the sink while still wearing the other. Got to stay fresh.
He said "that was a gift" so many times that I want to be friends with his friends as well! Which Salomon shoes were those?
I carry exactly every piece of gear you mentioned on this video with the addition of a lighter. It's the only other thing I'd recommend for an every day carry. It's unobtrusive, light and can serve in several day to day purposes and or possible emergencies. I just subscribed, you run an excellent channel.
John I Always carried everything you do before my weapon, so now completely covered with all of accessories
He was immediately entertaining for me lol
+Jamie Jackson thx!
"Start from the toes up"
Good video John as always..keep up the good work bro!
John love the wisdom you bring to IIa community. I am impressed that with all you had in your pockets and waistline that I could barely see your wallet printing. I have some work to do on that subject. Keep it the great video.
Those Trayvax Wallets are great. I've used one for years.
Tyler Austin thinking about buying one. Is it comfortable to sit on when it's in your back pocket?
I don't put my wallet in my back pocket, but if I did, the wallet is pretty thin, so i would imagine it would be more comfortable than a fat leather wallet.
Tyler Austin The new Magpul wallet is even better - super slim, rugged and keeps all the basics on deck! Oh yeah, and available in FDE, lol.
You mentioned a tactical knowledge about drawing the flashlight. i would be really interisted in video about that topic. Thank you for de great Content :)
I'll circle around to low light stuff soon I hope
oh ok just like me ;) i expected something more tactical XD. Simple and effective. Thank you very much
+Rudolf Kasper amen to simple and effective! The person is the weapon, and tools are tools. Except some people are tools... ha! Yes, I laughed at my own lame joke
John Lovell For me it is even a little more important to us all the none leathal tools, and my self as as a tool. Im German so on one side we cant carry guns, but on the other side we have no need because no citizen can carry a gun. sure you can buy all guns, with some exceptions, and shoot them in a club on the range or use them for Hunting. Hunters for example can carry their gun from theire home to the hunting ground in a locked case. Only there they are allowed to load the gun. In the US everybody can carry guns, because of the constitution. So if i would life in America i would carry gun too. I find it very interisting to follow the gun community and the differences between our cultures and things we have in common. Sadly many Germans dont understand the reason of the gunlaws in the US, because they see only the bad things in the mainstream media, such as shootings and dump people which ignor the gunsafty and shoot them self, for example. So thank you for your great videos.
+Rudolf Kasper there is an America portrayed in the media that paints a wildly different picture than what life is like in my home in Georgia.
Br love the sarcasm!
Great info and simple!
Glad I found your videos!
So I think you're an excellent trainer from washing your videos and you're very knowledgeable and you say Marco all-around good person so God bless bro
I've considered making an edc video, but it could get ridiculous. To start with, I carry an XD Compact .40 usually under a jacket in a shoulder holster, my backup gun is an XD Subcompact.40 that rides in an ankle holster. Here's where it gets ridiculous... I always have my M92 AK pistol in a tennis racket bag next to me and my folded Uzi Pro riding shotgun. I also have a holster under the steering column that holds my XD Tactical .45, spare mags in the glove box, center column, and the racket bag for all of them. I'll carry a small fixed blade knife occasionally, and a flashlight at night, and sometimes even a Cobalt mini multi tool. My trunk has my plate carrier along with more spare mags, and an ammo can filled with all calibers I'd need. I don't do it out of fear of being attacked, more so out of fear that my home could be broken into while I'm gone. I've had guns stolen from home break-ins before and it's a helpless, violated feeling. My car has an alarm and I do have a home safe that some of my guns stay in, but in my opinion, it's a pretty flimsy safe. That's something I need to invest in soon, a good sturdy safe. John, I'm a very polite and friendly guy (unless you cross me) and I consider myself a member of the warrior poet society. I have a strong relationship with my God, Creator, and Savior and He guides and protects me daily. Thank you for all you do to educate, inform, a drop some spiritual knowledge to the ones who desperately need it. Keep the great content coming! This has quickly became one of my top favorite channels.
you are most welcome sir. As for EDC - I was trying to just cover what is on my person, not within hands-reach. Your loadout is .... um....intense.
John Lovell Hahaha! I've been called worse things.
All those guns and no less than lethal tools like OC spray or medical supplies. Some situations don't call for a gun and some lethal force situations could be prevented if stopped before they escalate to that point. If you carry a gun it's probably to save a life, not because you want to get a kill under your belt. With that said, a few key medical tools would be as likely to save a life as a gun, like a tourniquet.
Need to “invest” in a good safe. Yet you have 1000 of excessive guns that most likely won’t help you win a realistic fight?? Unless your high security sell some of that shit and buy a safe for 1000 that will last you a lifetime so that no one steals your guns and endangers the rest of us. The do payment plans and there’s no sales tax in quite a few states.
You have every right to do what you want but it grinds my gears when dudes buy a shit load of powerful weapons and keep em in a stack on
IDOALL
XD is trash. Everyone knows it.
Sound load out
Thanks brother. It's always a work in progress. Do you carry a similar loadout?
John Lovell thanks guys for great content. @mrgunsngear referred me to your page. Are you related to Jim Lovell? Just orederd the Aeroes aegis belt. Never had it but like the idea of adjusting on the fly. I have 2 of the cobra buckle type belts that are becoming uncomfortable.
Mrgunsngear Channel he doesn't even have 2 or 3 backup guns.
This wedding is horseshit.
Awesome to see that to give me ideas of what I should be carrying.
You're a very funny guy and down to earth, one more subscriber right here.
Bet those stretchy pants came in handy for Thanksgiving! :)
yep!!!
I had that flashlight until I lost it....
I always get a good chuckle here. "...maybe that will blow my hair back" and the " feeling like I have a Batman Utility belt" also made me smile. I work with a "grappling hook" guy and I swear it must take him 30 minutes to dress. He's got shit strapped around both ankles, the stretchy under shirt holsters, Asp, Glock with three mags, backup revolver with backup speed loader, tourniquet, spare batteries for his Surefire light and iPhone, and so much other crap that just remembering he has all that must be a challenge. Love this channel!
Thanks (especially for the tip on the Gerber pen).
I think everyone likes Surefire quality but Surefire is always a bit behind the curve with regards to lumen output, features, etc. I won't buy a light these days that can't handle running off both primary cells and rechargeables. But Surefire sure doesn't offer too many of those. My EDC light is a HDS Systems. Not cheap but overbuilt for the apocalypse.
No fidget tool John (totally joking) Nice EDC 👌
+Vegas Gurl what is a fidget tool??
They're toys made out of aluminum usually with a bearing for spinning & fidgeting...I did not know about them until I saw people's posts on Instagram of their "EDC display". I shit you not.
John Lovell He's talking about the new spinning top fad.
Vegas Gurl my fidget tool is a 500
@@WarriorPoetSociety hi lovell. I would love to love you BTW Another figment of my imagination much like yourself. Gotcha
Nice and straightforward setup with what you need. While fun to watch the dumps that look like a tactical warehouse, you have the necessary items. Thanks for sharing.
no prob bro - and thanks!
My new favorite RUclipsr good on ya John keep it up!!
great video no judgement here keep sharing the true gospel rltw
Where is the hydraulic breaching stuffi?
I mean... come on John!?
+Do I Even Lift Hahahaha - what an oversight!!
John first off thank you for the vids ive been watching them all and i have to say i havent seen anything i disagree with. The things that you teach are right on the money, I would definitely come take a class from you man awesome keep the vids coming.
+Ulfhednar 506 thx brother
Love that lots of your stuff are gifts. :)
Not really a fan of these EDC videos but you at least did a good job at making it entertaining still, thanks for the video! :-)
+MrDeathsmbrace I'm not either. Thx!
Hey John, why is a flashlight so important? I typically use my phone flashlight app for every day use.
80% of all violent encounters happen during hours of limited visibility. For me, it is to search, navigate, blind, distract, identify, etc. Also, it can be used to prevent attacks, as criminals will associate it with law enforcement and assume you are situationally aware and carrying if they see you use it at night. Also, I hate little tactical surprises I use it for.
John Lovell I noticed you also have a light on your 19 so if the point of a flashlight is to be used during a violent attack in a low light situation wouldn't your gun be out as well and it would be perfectly acceptable to do everything you listed except for maybe navigate with that weapons mounted light?
I thought the same thing, Then went thru and still do, go thru some bad storms and random power outtages. Your phone may fail or you might need the phone to make calls. Heat of the moment, an independent light just might do the deed. YMMV.
This was actually a really helpful video. I usually carry my m&p shield with an extra mag and a pocket knife, plus the basics wallet phone and keys. I never thought about carrying a glass breaker/pen or a tourniquet. Guess I know what my next investment will be.
What we learned from this: everything you carry is a gift
The modern day Chuck Norris

Dude perfect trick shots.
Had to subscribe. Really great channel you have here. Keep up the good work.
- iPhone 6s
- Cheap but decent Kershaw assisted open knife
- Maglite Solitaire
- Cheap 2 fold black wallet
- Keys with a small multitool
- Some sort of thick leather belt that was given to me by a friends brother
- Ruger LCP on which I’ve polished the feed ramp, hammer cocking surface, and magazine feed lips, as well as added a hogue grip
- I’m currently running an uncle mikes floppy, junk fabric IWB holster at 11:00 crossdraw, but I intend to replace that with a good holster soon.
At 21, this is kinda my starter setup haha. Still working on it.
A man that travels without a grappling hook is NOT normal..
that's about all I carry too. need to be able to move around. please give me the name of a good tourniquet I'm not going to carry it around my waist I'll probably have it on my leg. thanks John God bless
Thanks for sharing- learned a few things- especially the flashlight
You are right on the money!!!! I carry the exact same gear everyday.
that's not a change pocket, that's for your pocket watch
+christian mcnally if I don't carry a pocket watch (or even know anyone who does), could it be all right to repurpose this a change pocket? ALL IN FAVOR....Say "I"
Thats actually incorrect, the pocket used to be for pocket watches vut after ww2 they actually began getting smaller and in vietnam or korean war i believe they were the size of a zippo lighter either to fit a zippo or the zippo was made to fit the pocket, though i digress, you will be hard pressed to find a pocket watch that would fit in the pocket now a days as its 1/3 the size they used to be and pocket watches havent really changed standard size in about 100 years
John wears stretchy pants!! LOL!!!
John EDC pants are prepared for the worst Thanksgiving day scenario. hahaha
enter nacho libre pose
Jason Foran 3% stretchy. Don’t getting wrong :)
Just like Chuck Norris action pants!
Pajama Jeans!!! (As seen on TV)
You're a good dude, John. Great video. De Oppresso Liber!
I like the sarcasm, that earned you a subscribe for sure.
I just don't carry a flashlight as much as I sometimes think I should because when I do carry one I do find that it comes in handy quite often.
thanks for following along! Yeah, for the light, it has a bit more to do with self-defense as a blinding or deception tool
So no car keys or sunglasses, clearly removed items from the video to be "that guy". Must have ditched the short sword and beats headphones along with the spare 30 round magazines on the shoulder holster. Now you want us to believe this is real, I take my tin foil hat off for one minute and this is what I find!!! Btw, what sights do you run?
haha! tin foil hat! Sights: telluricgroup.com/products/sevigny-carry-sights-for-glock
well sir, how can I say this... I'm disappointed. Ever since you pulled your carry weapon seemingly out of nowhere during the intro class, I have envisioned you with a grappling hook around your waist, stars on an upper arm band and a kukri hidden somewhere. You mean that you are NOT Batman?
I know, I know, such a let down! Turns out....I'm just a regular dude!
The enthusiasm is overwhelming. lol
Merry Christmas; thanks for the vids.
You are crazy!!! I love your vids!!!
Everything is perfect because it works for you. That is the key. More so, looking at you , I would never guess you carry all those tools dressed the way you are. The long sleeve under the short sleeve says no way your a gun guy. Bravo.
Great shoes. I forded a few rivers in the thawing arctic in those things, and my toes didn't fall off.
I love it. Less is more. Outstanding videos.
+titanlp26 thx!
Love the simplistic EDC setup. I do carry a surefire E2D defender and agree the Basel is a bit big. Also I use an SOE belt. Keep up the great videos.
I'm a bit like you. I don't give up all my tactical advantages. I am relatively certain you EDC more than you have shown. Kudos. You are the real deal. Keep up the good work. And, May God Hold you in the palm of his hand. James
looking forward to seeing the tourniquet vid!
I started carrying a SOF T a couple years ago. I carry it in an ankle rig at work and while wearing pants. I also carry one with shorts. Folds down flat now that they have newer generations without that huge clamping buckle!
BTW, you are crazy quick with your draw and first EFFECTIVE shot placement. A monster shot.
+Harlan Savage thx brother
Nice options, thanks for sharing!
Your carry is perfect bro!!
Nice! Different strokes for different folks!
Best edc in the world is the one that works for you. Good job 👍
Subscribed because you are funny while speaking knowledgeably.
The more knowledge you carry in your head the less you have to carry on your back (or belt). Great video!
Love your channel John! After watching your EDC series I've gotten a RATS and the Aegis Enhanced (through Telluric, thanks for the discount!) and have been rigging them similarly. Still keeping my CCW in the 3 o'clock position for now (what I'm most familiar with) and have recently added an Alien Gear Cloak Mag at 9 o'clock. You can never have too much ammo on you, amiright? Anyway, keep up the great, insightful content!
Good edc choices. I have a lighter added in my edc and just ordered a rats tourinqiet when I seen your video on how to wear it. Good stuff
