leather armor:to stay light on my feet, but i would probably hand reinforce it to stop more bullets, teeth, and anything else the wasteland could throw at me.
9mm pistol: to take out weak enemies/ low armored idiots (seriously, how do you walk around with no shirt on half the time, powder gangers?)
hunting rifle: you cant kill what you cant see, and the hunting rifles scope does a nice job of that.
9mm smg: with the light bolt and drum mag, its the ultimate "get out of my face right now" weapon
combat knife: for when i need to do business up close and personal, or use it to cut various junk.
