Samsung Galaxy J7
Zizo holster case
[Glock 43](https://www.gtdist.com/glock-43-fs-commercial-
9mm-single-stack-2-mags.html) - First carry gun, love it so far

Strike Industries G43 +2 baseplate - Feed without issues even with the factory spring
Taran Tactical G43 +2 baseplate - Usually on my backup mag because it is slimmer than the Strike Industries baseplate
Hornady Critical Defense 9mm 115gr - Sweet cartridge that feeds and flies great through both my handguns
CYA Supply Co. 'Carbon Fiber' Holster - By far my favorite holster for this gun. Usually carry appendix and it is incredibly comfortable with positive retention

Garmin Fenix 3 Sapphire - Bought factory refurbished from Amazon, bricked on me after a couple months and Garmin replaced it for free
Kershaw Clash - I've had this knife for over 5 years and it won't be quitting on me any time soon
Columbia Leather Walllet - Also had this over 5 years and it has held up very well

Damn, that's a good deal. I have the one with the wrist HR but I only use the strap when I run so I can't personally say that the strap is definitely more accurate (I like the extra data you get with the strap). However, from the reviews I've read, it seems like the wrist hr monitor is slightly less accurate than the strap during runs, but still pretty useful. I wanted the one with the wrist hr just so I'd still have hr data if I forgot to wear the strap or whatever.

Also, I really like that silver/red combo. I wish the 3 HR had come in more colors (I know different bands are available but the watch itself is only available in dark grey, as far as I know).

Actually though, that reminds me of one other benefit of the 3 HR- its also the sapphire model, which means the crystal is of a higher quality than the standard version (at least according to the salesman I talked to). If you tend to beat up watches, you may want to get that version, which is also on sale without the wrist HR. Even the titanium version, which also does not have the wrist HR, is on sale too. The 3 HR does not appear to be on sale though, at least not yet.
