Below you’ll find quick, straightforward guides to help you handle the essentials so you can focus on staying ready for real-world life.
Most new gun owners start with a simple, consistent daily carry setup and proper holster safety. Avoid complicated gear and focus on mastering the fundamentals first. Our Training & Resources page breaks this down in plain English.
You don’t need more gear—you need better insight. We test and review EDC tools, handguns, holsters, lights, and safety gear so you can buy what actually works instead of what’s marketed as “tacticool.”
The “best” handgun depends on your skill level, local laws, and how you plan to carry. We provide simple breakdowns and honest reviews to help you narrow down safe, beginner-friendly options.
Gun laws change by state and even by city. Always check your local concealed carry regulations, reciprocity laws, and required permits. We offer resources to help you find updated information quickly.
Focus on low-profile, practical carry methods. Avoid unnecessary add-ons and train for consistency. Our YouTube guides walk through real-world examples of comfortable, discreet daily carry.
Everyday Gun Owner focuses on gear that earns its place, not items that look cool in photos. Our recommendations come from real use, practical training, and honest evaluations. Whether you’re building a simple EDC setup or improving what you already carry, these tools were picked to help you stay prepared without wasting money or adding unnecessary bulk.

Carry consistency means using the same carry method, position, and general setup day after day, so accessing your firearm becomes instinctive under stress. Consistency matters more than having the “perfect” setup.
Most people stop carrying due to discomfort, inconvenience, wardrobe changes, or lack of routine. Inconsistency usually isn’t a motivation problem—it’s a setup and habit problem.
One primary carry method is strongly preferred. Switching methods frequently slows access and increases mistakes. The guide focuses on building a default carry system that works across most daily situations.
Comfort and concealment must work together. An uncomfortable setup eventually gets left behind. A slightly less “ideal” concealment that you actually carry every day is far more effective than a perfect setup that stays at home.
