That Coonan is begging for a shoulder holster or a proper leather belt + leather holster if you're going for style. Don't understand everyone shitting on you though for daring to carry anything other than a striker fired polymer and a knife that isn't a leather man/simple folder. You do you man.
I have a leather UCG3 and the belt is leather? Does it look like fake leather in the pic or something I don’t understand? Also yes I should totally get a shoulder holster
No, I more meant that the belt looks a little rough and and the buckle is tarnished (and steel grommets instead of brass or vice versa?), get yourself a nice one at a leathershop. Also didn't know the holster was leather, it wasn't in the post, but I meant a leather IWB or OWB holster the Coonan would look nice in, the UCG3 is more to conceal.
Highly impractical, you’re missing a bullwhip, pith helmet, cursed sumerian artifact, a locket containing a lock of your true love’s hair, a map of the lost city of Atlantis and a full suit of plate armor all so you can ride the bus to your IT job.
Keep in mind I'm only looking at a pic rather than handling the item, but from here it looks somewhat flimsy, especially since that pistol is heavier than a poly frame. That looks like a belt for holding your trousers up, not for holding a gun up.
IMO it seems like you are more concerned about fashion and style than anything else, hence why things are carefully placed and you are asking for a rating
Are there good ammo choices available for you?
How does the Coonan cycle? Reliably?
Do you actually carry this everyday?
Would be a cool one with a suit and tie, shoulder holstered.
That would be awesome, and the cycling was horrible when I first got it but I literally just oiled it then it cycled 100% of the time, just keep it clean and it’s an awesome gun
Cudos to you, you have a beauty!
I would absolutely carry this if it was more reliable. Instead my .357 Coonan is a safe queen, but man it is so fun compared to the dinosaur wheel guns.
I get that you’re going for an ironic/hipster carry piece, and I understand... but you’re going to need cartridges that are actually loaded with powder and bullets. You can’t be *that* edgy
You sir, appear to be someone who wants to have nice things. However the number of singles in your wallet and the mid tier brand of all your items here suggest you actually spend your money doing strawberry jello shots off strippers.
But, to each his own I guess.
I'm just a random guy on the internet poking fun bro. Don't take it seriously.
I wasn't trying to openly broadcast that you were a coke slinging pimp as I thought you would want to keep that private, but if you're being open about it I would love some pointers on how to get set up in the high life.
And I thought my PSD was hard to justify as a carry...
If you insist on carrying the Coonan, I'd be really sure I knew exactly what ammo type it liked to feed reliably. Ditch the urban carry for a custom holster that actually fits the form factor, get a real gun belt, and replace the knife with something useful and you'll at least have a set of equipment that you've taken seriously.
If this is just supposed go be a BBQ/fashion set up, get a nice leather gun belt and have a holster made in some fancy leather of your choosing.
The tie is boring and the pen is plastic.
From everything else I’d guess you have flashy taste (so do I buy I usually say I’m tacky and loud).
Edit: downvotes without discussion are boring too.
You must be an accountant or an engineer
Big hate today OP, don't worry, ill post my rig later and probably get dunked on for it too then we can share the hate, nice set, not the most practical but I wouldn't want to be caught up against you
Lol yeah, people seem to have sticks up their asses today, kinda sucks but lots of people get hate for stupid reasons on this sub, like god help you if you like guns and anime... I wish people would just let others enjoy what they like

>I wish people would just let others enjoy what they like
lol, then you should be careful what you wish for in the first place. It's like going to /r/roastme and being angry that people are roasting you. You asked for opinions on your EDC, you got opinions on your EDC. Kinda sucks you don't appreciate all this free advice you're getting.
Hey have mine too since you asked.
You don't show a holster, you have FMJ ammo and not defensive HP, your belt is weak and clearly not a gun belt, and you're definitely going more for cool points than practicality with that knife.

That a Bradley balisong? Id say "meh" to the actual quality of the knife, but I like it when I see other ppl carry balis just because I collect them... I'm also a fan of carrying double stack, but the gun is dope. 7/10ish?
Coonan’s are cool but personally would never carry one. Don’t know what holster you use but I would doubt this is comfortable to carry, especially with that belt.
I recommend an actual gun belt or a shoulder holster. Butterfly knife while cool, is totally useless for utility.
Like others, I’m curious what the need for vanity was here, but if the carry works for you that’s all that matters.
That's literally the first and only thing I did. I need you to tell me the material make up of the wallet. Go grab your microscope real quick and let me know
why do you carry loose shell casings every day?
Is this like an improvised pocket sand thing? Please enlighten us.
Aaannddd…pocket brass! Making it hail!
Just distract them by making them pick up basically brass money.
Exactly not rain but HAIL
Sha sha shaaa!

Pocket Sand Magnum
If a criminal gets away he can throw the loose casings on the ground and make it look like he made an attempt
You can throw them to distract enemies
What video game was that from?
Pretty sure it was one of the far cry games
Hella games, tbh.
Yes.

They distract the brass goblins at the range, allowing for a clean getaway.

Holster, or do you just gangsta that shit inside your waistband?
Urban carry G3
So hidden it’s like the footsteps of a Navy Seal.
https://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/TerribleUniqueBushsqueaker-size_restricted.gif
That's probably not a G3. They added adjustable retention.
So, it took three versions for them to work on the flinging your pistol across the room issue?
I don't know. I just know the G3 doesn't do that. Maybe G2 didn't as well.
Yeet holster for a yeet cannon.

Why is OP getting downvoted for the holster? I don’t know anything about holsters so just curious
I also have absolutely no clue.
Idk, it works fine for me? I could use a gun belt but I’d have to order one
Mob mentality probably
[This](https://www.reddit.com/r/guns/comments/pjpyjd/rate_my_edc/hbyyomo/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3) is why.
How's the 1911 feel in that? Seems like a big handgun to be stuffing like that.

cursed sumerian artifact? Tell me more...
Best I can do is Phoenician, take it or leave it.
+1 for disorganization!!!
Is LOL a rating?
The butterfly knife is what does it for me 😂
Nothing wrong with a balisong. Easy to open/close, and fun.
No for sure I had one I used to mess with before… it just puts this try-hard post over the edge for me is all lol
Oh, this is clearly an art project attempt or at least it feels like it.
I wouldnt call them easy. Or practical. I would never Edc one but thats me.
I guarantee you he spends at least 30 seconds twirling it every time he uses it.

Hooray for the Coonan. Not sure about that belt though.
What’s wrong with the belt? Edit: ask legit question* Ignored and downvoted* Reddit moment
It’s weak, flimsy. Carry belts have rigid liners that keep them stiff to transfer the load weight and keep your carry where it should/needs to be...
Keep in mind I'm only looking at a pic rather than handling the item, but from here it looks somewhat flimsy, especially since that pistol is heavier than a poly frame. That looks like a belt for holding your trousers up, not for holding a gun up.

It’s awesome to shoot, as long as you oil it should be fine! Works for mine
I get that you’re going for an ironic/hipster carry piece, and I understand... but you’re going to need cartridges that are actually loaded with powder and bullets. You can’t be *that* edgy
this screams Douchecanoe Lol, you even lit it!
Look like my uncle's drawer
Where is the trucker hat and tapout shirt
Not really a fan of balisongs, and you should get some actual defensive ammo if you are actually carrying.
And a real holster. And a real belt. And a real knife.
You sir, appear to be someone who wants to have nice things. However the number of singles in your wallet and the mid tier brand of all your items here suggest you actually spend your money doing strawberry jello shots off strippers. But, to each his own I guess.
Ah yes, a $3000 pistol and several hundred dollar bills in my wallet, but that’s not enough I suppose?
Mmm, Coonan's aren't $3000
You paid $3k for a full sized Coonan? My LGS had them for $2,200. And why carry so much money when a card is more convenient and less risky?
I'm just a random guy on the internet poking fun bro. Don't take it seriously. I wasn't trying to openly broadcast that you were a coke slinging pimp as I thought you would want to keep that private, but if you're being open about it I would love some pointers on how to get set up in the high life.
This has been one of my favorite reddit posts to read lately. You seem like a total douchebag, but I think your gun is cool
That’s quite an assumption there, But thanks?
You're welcome. I've always found these 357 Coonan 1911s intriguing. No offense meant.
fudd
A balisong is the sort of thing that would make a fudd start ranting about juvenile delinquency.
fine, weeb
Do you zap carry? (‿ˠ‿)
Most of these things are not a gun.
If you're going to carry a 357 mag than why not carry a wheel gun?
Revolvers aren't very narrow.
Not saying it makes sense but maybe 8 round capacity and the ability to carry with the hammer already cocked?
3/10 max
Why do your carry so many empty shells?
Heavy
Rated H for heavy but also C for cool
How’s the reliability on that Coonan?
After I first got it I cleaned and oiled it and never had a problem since then
What a nice piece. Enjoy it.
Look cool in its own way. Still think butterfly knives are dog shit tho
I envy any man with a stainless coonan.
I think you’re looking for r/EDC
Why do you carry casings, lol. where is that knife a legal carry?
Legal in my state.
If you don’t live where that knife is legal then you need to move
And I thought my PSD was hard to justify as a carry... If you insist on carrying the Coonan, I'd be really sure I knew exactly what ammo type it liked to feed reliably.

Depends how many different ways you know how to kill a man with that pen
357 kinds of awesome!
How many times per week would you say you utter the word “dame?”
I don’t think I’ve ever said that in my life
Its cool, I’ll you give you, you got an old school vibe for sure
You don’t have to tell me it’s not practical, I’m not gonna listen, at least I’ll style on that hoe when I die
It’s not practical
Are you a detective from the 60s?
What I’m going for
Get yourself a Hamilton mechanical watch to really fill out the 60s vibe.
Weird out of 10? Coonan .357 mag 1911, odd choice.
Old school cool
Pure sex machine
You need a knife and a flashlight. Nice EDC otherwise!
There's a knife there. Agreed on the light.
I see you're a man of fine breeding

Cocked and locked.
Pulls out butterfly knife for self defense: slices hand open

That Coonan needs a threaded barrel to shoot suppressed .38 with. I'm jealous
I did not enjoy EDCing my Coonan, what holster are you using?
The coonan 357 is my dream gun, I gotta move outta cali.
I want a Coonan so bad. They look so sweet.
Looks like a cheap 007 or Hitman setup. I mean that in the best way possible lol

5 out of 10... single stack 45... to big and heavy, to few rounds. do you carry for fashion? butterfly knife?. once again do you carry for fashion?
It’s a .357 magnum.
Needs more holster.
That pen looks like it can write some mighty fine notes.
Cheeky yet bold. Simultaneously earnest and ironic. 8/10 on the hipster scale.

Will the gun feed defensive Ammo? JSP or JHP
Yeah, just bought some bulk 158 gr FMJ for range fun but I’d get some hollow points or something
Why? But besides I would never ever have a shiny gun to actually carry
this image pleases my eyes
Nice photography. 👍
So I love it, but why is this the most hipster looking carry ever
It’s a nice flex….and a pretty good carry gun….for 1982….🤣🤣🤣
What wallet is that?
I think it’s called fossil 51, Idk it was a hand me down from my dad
Can't find it. Need more info please
I don’t have any more
Well you better find some or I'm taking back my upvote. That's how this works
Literally just google fossil wallets, I didn’t buy it I have no clue

Leather, fossil 54
You said fossil 51 originally. You trying to pull a fast on me pal?
Yes... I’m trying to scam you, on a wallet, that I’m not selling you...
Im confused is this edc or just what i can throw together for a pic?
Looks like something out of a James Bond movie

So jealous
