Soon I’m going to be tasked with pulling an overnight watch shift at a building my company recently purchased. We’ve been slowly putting equipment and resources in this building, and so far we’ve watched it via remote video camera. We’ve had several break ins, all of them arrested in quick order after remote video noticed the intrusion. I’m volunteering working the first 24/7 shift on site, and I plan on being prepared. If you were in my shoes, what would be your preferred carry setup?
