Considering the state of the world today, giving that special concealed carrier a piece of high-quality gear might just save your life! Hey, it\u2019s OK if you benefit from your own generosity, right?<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m taking a slightly non-traditional approach with this list. Rather than barf up a list of the newest gadgets, I\u2019m choosing stuff that actually keeps its place in my everyday use gear. You know, those items that I have consistently chosen to carry and use over the long haul. If it earns a permanent place in my limited pocket space, it must be good.<\/p>\n<p>With that said, here are some of my favorite concealed carry lifestyle gift ideas.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/blackhawk.com\/products\/accessories\/knives\/folding\/mod\u00ae-sfk-folder.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Big Knife<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sogknives.com\/twitch-ii.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Little Knife<\/a><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_48472\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-1.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48472\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\" class=\"wp-image-48472 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-1-1024x715.jpg\" alt=\"The Blackhawk!

MOD SFK Folder (top) and SOG Twitch II (bottom)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>I\u2019ve accumulated about a million folding knives, but the one that finds its way into my pocket just about every day is the <a href=\"https:\/\/blackhawk.com\/products\/accessories\/knives\/folding\/mod\u00ae-sfk-folder.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Blackhawk! MOD SFK Folder<\/a>. This Applegate \/ Fairbairn inspired design is about five inches long closed, but I just love the feel. The double hilt protects your fingers, and the handle grooves provide a sure grip. A finger tab allows you top easily open this knife one-handed. The pointed blade will suck at prying, but is great for everyday chores. You can mount the belt clip in four different positions to fit your carry and opening motion style. I don\u2019t carry this one to be \u201cbadass\u201d &#8211; I carry it because it\u2019s so darn handy. It goes without saying it\u2019ll serve as a great defensive tool if needed.<\/p>\n<p>You can find one for about $130.<\/p>\n<p>For the small folder, that\u2019s also an easy no brainer. My all-time favorite is the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sogknives.com\/twitch-ii.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">SOG Twitch II<\/a>. At just three and one-half inches long closed, it has an assisted open that literally flings and locks the blade into place with a touch of the finger. You can get it with a smooth or serrated blade, and a sliding lock keeps it from opening in your pocket.<\/p>\n<p>MSRP on the Twitch II is $72.50, but you can find it for less if you shop.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.maglula.com\/product\/uplula-9mm-to-45acp\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Maglula Uplula Magazine Loader<\/a><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_48473\" style=\"width: 479px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Maglula-UpLula.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48473\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\" class=\"wp-image-48473 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Maglula-UpLula.jpg\" alt=\"The Maglula Uplula magazine loader is one of those things you won't want to live without once you try it.\" width=\"469\" height=\"468\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Maglula-UpLula.jpg 469w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Maglula-UpLula-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Maglula-UpLula-301x300.jpg 301w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 469px) 100vw, 469px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-48473\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Maglula Uplula magazine loader is one of those things you won&#8217;t want to live without once you try it.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.brownells.com\/shooting-accessories\/speedloaders-accessories\/magazine-speedloaders\/semi-auto-pistol-uplula-magazine-loader-prod23962.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Maglula Uplula<\/a> is one of those things that you really can\u2019t appreciate until you use it.

I gave one each to my wife and sister while neglecting to buy one for myself. Big mistake. Once you see how these work, you\u2019ll never want to crush your thumbs again. The standard 9mm to .45ACP model loads most any single or double stack magazine effortlessly.

The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.n82tactical.com\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">N82 Tactical IWB holster<\/a> is the softest and most comfortable IWB holster I\u2019ve found for small to medium-sized handguns. The three-layer construction has suede on the inside while the sandwich construction creates a large back panel with a padded feel. It\u2019s not much of an exaggeration to say that wearing one of these feels like stuffing a pillow between your skin and pants. There are three basic holster pouch options. The original is an elastic pocket that holds your gun in place. Different sizes and shapes are available for different handguns. You can also get the elastic version in a tuckable configuration. If you want positive retention, check out the Professional model. The gun pocket is made from a polycarbonate material that locks the gun in place. A simple twist during the draw releases it.<\/p>\n<p>Prices range from $39.95 to $69.95 depending on which model you choose.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/princetontec.com\/impulse\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Princeton Tec Impulse<\/a><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_48475\" style=\"width: 1034px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48475\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\" class=\"size-large wp-image-48475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2-1024x646.jpg\" alt=\"The small size and light weight of the Princeton Tec Impulse allow you to carry it everywhere.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"646\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2-1024x646.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2-150x95.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2-400x252.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/Gift-Guide-2.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-48475\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The small size and light weight of the Princeton Tec Impulse allow you to carry it everywhere.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>In a perfect world, we\u2019d all carry a gun, a light, and a knife at a minimum at all times.

At about two and a half inches long, this tiny little thing makes a great key ring addition. The oval shape, non-existent weight, and flat profile make it a realistic additional that you\u2019ll actually leave on your key ring. It has three modes of operation controlled by a push button: low, high and flashing. The 10-lumen LED isn\u2019t going to burn out an attacker\u2019s eyeballs, but it will help you see where you\u2019re going in the dark.<\/p>\n<p>You can find this little gem for about $12.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"https:\/\/www.safariland.com\/revolver\/speed-strips---pair-10851.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Bianchi Speed Strips<\/a><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_48476\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DG_BIA_580_Speed-Strips_Pair.jpg\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-48476\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\" class=\"size-full wp-image-48476\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DG_BIA_580_Speed-Strips_Pair.jpg\" alt=\"A must have if your giftee carries a revolver. \" width=\"600\" height=\"455\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DG_BIA_580_Speed-Strips_Pair.jpg 600w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DG_BIA_580_Speed-Strips_Pair-150x114.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/DG_BIA_580_Speed-Strips_Pair-396x300.jpg 396w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-48476\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A must have if your giftee carries a revolver.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Moving right along in the not necessarily new but exceedingly useful category are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safariland.com\/revolver\/speed-strips---pair-10851.html\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"concealed-carry-gift-guide\" title=\"Concealed Carry Gift Guide\">Bianchi Speed Strips<\/a>. These flexible urethane (think rubber) strips hold .38 Special \/ .357 Magnum or .44 \/ .45 caliber rounds inline. This means that you can carry spare ammo for your snubbie revolver flat, as in a pants pocket. They\u2019re not as fast as the reload as compared to round speed loaders, but they sure are portable and concealable. With a bit of practice, you can load two rounds at a time. If your giftee carries a revolver, these are a must have addition to their gear.<\/p>\n<p>MSRP is $9 for a pair<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking for something specific for that gun nut on your list?
