What's In Your Bag?

This is a community for the nosy among us who really like to see what other people are carrying in their daily bag. Pictures of bag contents and a list of items you carry, as well as any explanation, are preferred in the body of the post itself. NOTE: This sub is generally agnostic about posts that include guns, but the historical culture here (number of comments, downvotes, and reports they generate) suggest you post them at your peril.
