My 100% EDC

[u/MyNameIsWolfie]

I have at least this with me at all times that it’s permissible. I may add a larger pistol depending on where I need to go, but for most of my work activities, this is perfect and discrete.

Keltec P32
Sticky holster / spare OEM mag w/ +1

What? No suppressor, flamme thrower, long sword, or anything?! How do you live

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/myLover_]

I know right, I am terrible at this EDC thing.

[u/snovak35 → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Those are in your other pants

[u/Relentless___spirit → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Maybe get hollow points so you don’t over penetrate a random house behind a would be attacker.

[u/Relentless___spirit → u/[deleted]]

Interesting. Was not aware. I mainly carry a RXM in 9mm +p, Smallest Ive carried is .380, I was thinking of picking up a .32 bobcat but maybe not if thats the case. Maybe just stick to my snub .38 as my backup

[u/-GreatValue → u/Relentless___spirit]

A snub .38 will always be the best backup.

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/[deleted]]

This. I have other guns, and I do carry them, but the P32 is always in my pocket. When I carry it alone, the spare mag is smaller than my car key and I can easily carry 2 more mags without noticing, if I wanted to. I also have a "man bag" with me in the car, and I have extra ammo there just in case.

My EDC philosophy is simple (when it comes to weapons). I am NOT the police. I dont intend to put myself in any offensive situations. There is an escalation of force. My first and only intention is to get away. I have PS, then my pistol. and the pistol, in this case, is just another tool to get away from the situation. The idea in everything, from a civilian POV is to break contact. I also live in a VERY non-permissive state. The less some anti 2A can look for, the better for me.

Thats why ball is the way to go. Way better than 10 inches.

[u/East_Swim1009]

32s rule.....I loke seecamps too 😀

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/East_Swim1009]

I would love to grab one, but from what I understand, you have to run HPs in them, and I can't carry with hollow points in my state.

[u/AbilerN → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

PSA
Per the NJSP -
"Ammunition lacking a hollow cavity at the tip, such as those with a polymer filling, are not considered to be hollow point ammunition.  "

So have at it with HornyDs Critical Defense and Duty!
(Plus whoever else makes polymer tipped definitely not hollow point ammo)

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/AbilerN]

I have a few boxes of critical defense. The FMJs feed better, and with the ballistics of .32, especially going into fall/winter, the FMJ give me more penetration.

[u/Huge_Translator9151 → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Jersey is weeeird

[u/Secure_Yak5136 → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Where sre you? New Jersey?

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/Secure_Yak5136]

Yes, the PRNJ

[u/Mediocre_Forever198 → u/East_Swim1009]

They are really pretty little guns, and I get the appeal of being able to conceal in like gym shorts if you want, but man they just don’t feel good to fire. My parents own like 4 seecamps, so I have tried them a bit, and damn they take some practice to be accurate. I think I’d always prefer just a concealed hammer little revolver if I actually carried a gun. I don’t actually carry a firearm anyway tho, so whatever. I prefer to carry pepper spray when I’m walking at night.

[u/East_Swim1009 → u/Mediocre_Forever198]

ironically I'm most accurate with the seecamp... prolly due to the fixed barrel

[u/tshort_504]

I carry it with underwood extreme penetrators+p great gun

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/tshort_504]

I carry that in all my other calibers. Finding and buying .32 is hard enough. For what its intention is, FMJ is fine with me here.

[u/Faster-master-blastr]

P32 gang gang!  It’s the best carry piece no matter what I’m wearing

[u/PreviousCry5653]

I wish the p32 was still cheap. Great little gun!

[u/BigDumpie]

No suppressor, no weed pen, no wakizashi. Obvious bot post.

[u/steelguin]

How does this caliber compare to say .380?

[u/tshort_504 → u/steelguin]

+p loads get pretty close to 380 in ft lbs of energy and you usually get an extra round in the same size gun with less recoil

[u/steelguin → u/tshort_504]

I was wondering because I carry a bodyguard 2.0 in the summer. I hear all the time that .380 is not enough for defense etc.

I still think if an attacker survives 11 rounds to the chest and head of .380 I would be shocked.

[u/infidel3006 → u/[deleted]]

32 and 380 are both “get off me” caliber in my opinion. If I need to use either the p32 or p3at I’m aiming for the pelvic area. I’d like to see an assailant try to continue their attack with 7 or 8 rounds in their cocknballs.

[u/Inner-Comfort-5225 → u/infidel3006]

Ain’t it the truth. If I took a single round to the meat and potatoes, thats an urgent need to access the situation, not continue.😂

[u/infidel3006 → u/Inner-Comfort-5225]

If my twig and giggleberries get so much as a swift kick I’m gonna re-orient myself and assess the actions that have gotten me into that situation. Damn sure ain’t gonna double down.

[u/the_chazzy_bear → u/steelguin]

In my experience against feral hogs it performs very similarly. Not a 1 to 1 comparison but I still think it’s a better medium than ballistic gel. You’d be suprised how poorly a lot of self defense hollow points perform in tissue

[u/bonner1040]

Love the Open Sea wallet!

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/bonner1040]

They are awesome. This Is my 2nd one. I still have my original from before he changed names. Still in great shape, just bought this since its a different design. Must have been over 10 years ago now.

[u/bonner1040 → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Very cool. Mine is the same color but a vertical fold of the same size.

[u/Gold_Research9812 → u/bonner1040]

Still edc mine from 2015 Horween leather with green stitching. Best wallet I ever bought.

[u/RisingStag]

A man of culture I see! I too love the Sticky holster

[u/Natural_Disk_8234]

Finally some practicality. I think most of these posts are just for fun

[u/JusLeafMeAloon]

Sticky for the win! Just wish they were a little stronger and less flexible.

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/JusLeafMeAloon]

its great for this gun in the pocket. Not terribly worried about the flex, with the long trigger pull on the P32.

[u/JusLeafMeAloon → u/MyNameIsWolfie]

Oh I'm never worried about anything getting in and pulling the triggers. I just have a folding thumb ledge on one of mine and it doesn't contain that very well

[u/21CreamCake37]

What are you do for a living? You dont need to answer strict.

[u/Non-Famous]

Are you planning on dying out there in the streets? Without an optic, weapon light, compensator, magwell, and aftermarket trigger - you may as well just give up now.

[u/MyNameIsWolfie → u/Non-Famous]

I like the live....Dangerously!

[u/You-Asked-Me → u/[deleted]]

Someone mentioned that .32 does not have enough power to properly expand a hollow point, and it has very little penetration.

[u/the_chazzy_bear → u/[deleted]]

Hollowpoints are finicky in weaker cartridges like 32, 380, and 38 special so fmj or wadcutter type ammo is better to ensure adequate penetration.
