I started keeping my wallet/badge in my left rear pocket (I'm right handed) about 20 years ago... Yes officer my gun is on my right side and the wallet is in my left rear pocket...see gun?...reaching with left hand for wallet/badge....real slow like....

Nothing goes in my gun hand except the gun and nothing goes on my gun side except the gun and maybe one of the knives... magazines, wallets and keys go left side... until I have to start the truck/car/whatever....

Don't carry water bottles, soda nothin' in the right hand...

I got caught flat footed once with a charging dog and alot of stupid worthless stuff in the right hand... you tell yourself to drop the extra stuff... and then watch yourself not drop it.. . it happens...call me paranoid... but just because I'm parianoid doesn't mean "they" aren't out to get me/both of me/etc.
