In this episode of the Acceptable Accuracy podcast, hosts Philip and Tyler welcome first-time guest Nathan to dive into the world of Everyday Carry (EDC). They explore why EDC matters through real-world examples and discuss the mindset shift from being a gear junkie to a purpose-driven carrier. The trio emphasizes that simply carrying isn’t enough—training is essential, covering everything from safety and marksmanship to low-light scenarios and defensive movement. They tackle the balance between investing in gear versus training and offer guidance on how often to train. Common mistakes are addressed, like inconsistent carry and training only on a static range. Wrapping up, they touch on the deeper responsibility of EDC, viewing preparedness as an act of love and stewardship for those around you.
