Hi Everybody,
I recently lost my Inova X1 light out of its sheath hung on a carbiner on my belt loop!! <img src="/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" /> So... I am looking for the "perfect" belt pack to EDC. Maxpedition has some nice ones, but I dont know which one to get??
Here is what I want to carry--my Leatherman Wave, flashlight (up to a Surefire E2e), Doug's mini PSK, and maybe a tiny FAK and/or my Palm or a phone, etc.
I know there are some very knowledgeable folks on this forum, and I would sure appreciate your help.
I want something that is big enough to carry my EDC gear, looks decent, but is not so big that I wont carry it. I always carrry my BladeTech Pro Hunter folder in my right pocket so that will probably stay there. Again, thanks!

You probably need an M1. I have an M2 but it sounds too small for your stuff.

I would go to a camera store or other large store and browse through the different camera bags available. You will probably find the best one to carry *your* specific gear. I'm sure you can find a nice one with a belt loop and shoulder strap for less than 15 $.

Not that I think that Maxpedition gear is not good, I think that you might get more for your money with a cheaper camera bag.

Just my opinion.

Hi Randjack,
Do you think a M4 is too big to carry on your belt EDC?? I like the dual side pouches for light and Wave. I know if I get something too big, I probably wont wear it everyday. Thanks

I have enjoyed the M-2 quite a bit.

Brian and I have both done that. I use the MaxPed as an accessory pouch on my FatBoy. But then, at last count I've got about 6 kits going.

It would be for me, but it all depends upon how you use it. Why not just go to a FatBoy?
