Exploring someone else’s Everyday Carry (EDC) setup offers both insight and inspiration. While essentials like wallets and keys are common, EDC loadouts often include unexpected items tailored to individual needs and lifestyles. From sleek and minimalist to feature-packed setups, each tells a story about its owner’s daily routine. We’ll take a closer look at a distinct EDC setup. Enjoy

Recover GR48 Full Size Rail for Glock 48
MSRP: $30
URL: recovertactical.com
Our 2¢: Early adopters of the G48, like us, were left without an accessory rail. That is until Recover Tactical created the GR48 full-size rail add-on. It securely attaches to the front of the G48 via a pair of screws and nuts and provides a solid mounting point for your weapon light of choice. Not a Glock person? You’ll be glad to know that Recover offers pistol rail additions for a wide variety of makes and models.
Savior Equipment
Mini Loose Sac
MSRP: $29 (4-pack)
URL: saviorequipment.com
Our 2¢: Savior Equipment is taking the firearm soft case and bag segment by storm, but they didn’t stop there. The soft-side storage experts also offer pouches that are perfect to get small items organized and in order. This Mini Loose Sac is made of sturdy material and features smooth-operating, heavy-duty zippers and double-stitched seams for durability. The bottom of the sack features a drainage grommet.
Gerber Prybrid Utility
MSRP: $30
URL: gerbergear.com
Our 2¢: Every member of the UN12 staff keeps a Prybrid close at hand. Useful for opening those endless streams of Amazon packages, the blade can be replaced with that of a standard box cutter, making it affordable to maintain its sharpness. This pocket tool can also be used as a pry bar, nail puller, wire stripper, small flathead driver, large flathead driver, bottle opener, and cord cutter.
Knipex 4” Cobra XS Water Pump Pliers
MSRP: $33
URL: knipex-tools.com
Our 2¢: A tiny pair of pliers carried for EDC may seem odd to some people, but don’t knock it until you try it. German tool company Knipex makes top-tier tools, and these Cobra XS pliers are no exception. They’re compact, yet they can do the duty of tools triple their size. We’re big fans of these little pliers.
SureFire XC3 WeaponLight
MSRP: $299
URL: surefire.com
Our 2¢: SureFire’s latest pistol light is a perfect fit on compact pistols. Its 550-lumen output provides more than enough light for close- to medium-range work. It features ambidextrous switches that can be activated for momentary and constant-on uses. The switch can also be deactivated to prevent accidental operation. Utilizes one CR123A sized battery for 1.75 hours of continuous use.
Thyrm CellVault Battery Storage for AAA & CR123
MSRP: $2
URL: thyrm.com
Our 2¢: Slim, durable, and able to be mounted in a number of ways including on molle webbing, this battery storage tube keeps batteries close at hand when they’re needed most. It can also be repurposed to store anything you can fit in it—lip balm, matches, even candies. They’re useful enough that we have several attached to our plate carrier as well as our backpack.
