How do most of you move wearing all that stuff.

I have on the right from front to rear CS Spray, Rigid Handcuffs.
On the left from front to rear leather gloves, Left restrains, ASP.

My radio clips onto the overt body armour and is slightly larger than a mobile phone.
Anything else like big flashlights, paperwork, search equipment etc is in the car or van.

I was asking myself the same thing. Like, what is it with all those keepers? I'm sure it has it's purpose.

And yes I know it's a lot of keepers.

See, even Growler admits there are too many keepers. So what keeps... oops... I mean gives? What is a keeper and why so many?

Keepers wrap around the outer duty belt and the inner trouser belt. It keeps the two belts married to one another so they don't seperate.

It offers a much more stable platform to draw your weapons/defensive and offense from.

Much needed.

I don't think he really wrote that! There's no sexual entenders, and it actually makes sense!

This definitely was not the "Say something nice about the person above you" thread.

**sgtbambam** · 09-21-06, 12:02 AM

From front clockwise....oc case, 9mm holster, asp baton, handcuffs, disposable glove case, stinger flashlight, X26 taser, 9mm magazine pouch. Thats all i have room for lol. Need to gain weight before I add anything else.

**JohnnyRotten** · 09-21-06, 01:59 AM

Well, I don't know if us rent-a-cops are allowed to play but I'm going to anyway. Back when I worked in the projects I wore the following counter-clockwise from center: dual mag pouch w/magazines, double-wide keeper, mini mag light, PR-24 XTS (all aluminum) w/ swivel holster, double-wide keeper, (empty space over back and kidneys), double-wide keeper, leatherman tool, double-wide keeper, border patrol style holster w/ Taurus PT-99 9mm, double-wide keeper, Mk IV Cap-Stun, cell phone, and double thick handcuff case with a pair of Peerless hinged cuffs and a pair of Hyatt hinged cuffs (rubber gloves stuffed in the bottom). All the gear was leather.

Plus bug, assorted knives, flex cuffs between belts, and level III-a body armor.

See why I needed a 56" waist?

Oh, and If I was lucky enough to get a radio, I shoved it in the space just aft of the baton and used a epaulette mike.

Don't forget the keys to your golf cart. lol

j/k

**JohnnyRotten** · 09-21-06, 09:05 AM

all on foot, bro... all on foot.

**Pedro56** · 09-21-06, 09:19 AM

Just a little friendly ball busting.

**JohnnyRotten** · 09-21-06, 09:22 PM

I know... I'm saying I didn't even get a friggin' golf cart!

I'm kinda dissapointed in how many of you carry cell phones on your belt. Pet peeve. Bad form, IMO. If I have room for a cell phone, that means I have room for something USEFULL like another set of cuffs or a Taser. It looks like shit on your belt, and it sounds even more like shit when I hear one ring on a belt.

Investigators, fine carry a phone but I still think it should be on vibrate and not heard.

**gozling** · 09-22-06, 09:32 AM

If we carried tasers I would be more than happy to move stuff around, trust me! As for the phone, it is in a black case and I use it alot. The other guys on my shift and I use them alot, so I think it is an important piece of equipment. YMMV.

Also, it stays on vibrate. I agree, nothing worse than being on a call and someone's phone rings!

With the current group of dispatchers we have, a phone has become a must. Not saying they can't run a plate without a long-winded, step-by-step explanation, but.....

You are right about the cell phone taking up space though, some of us girth-challenged folks can't fit a lot on the belt.
