I just purchased one of these, I have two 5.11 Push Pack(s), that I rotated regularly, one with a pistol, one without, (I was federal employee that used public transportation, so I could not secure my weapon in my vehicle), I saw this on sale at 5.11, ($39) so I decided to purchase it and plan to make a more of a well loaded med kit to carry with me, looks plain enough to be just a regular bag.
I appreciate that! It's gettin' there. I really think you'll like the Hill People Gear Chest Rig too. Check it out and thanks for supporting the channel. 👍
I had to watch it again but I think it was! Good guess. I was using it as a "bag" mechanism for that pack at the time. I think I have a single stack shield in there now...
this is my 5th yt view of this bag and none of you have shown what it looks like worn and how it operates when wearing it. Any chance you could do that? How high does it sit? How adjustable is the strap? Can you sling it round to access stuff? How does it move around when you're running or it's loaded? Can you attach small items or pockets to the strap, like a phone or Garmin InReach, and where do they sit for access? Cheers.
This is a great bag, one of the first sling bags I've used that you can go on long walks for and doesn't hurt your shoulder. I took it on my trip to San Francisco and walked the Golden gate Bridge with it 👍
Grew up hunting and camping and I am an EMC today. So, a "go-bag" is not a new concept. The items I have used more often and always carry in my truck are: 1) $20 Bill for when I forget my wallet, 2) Bic Lighter, 3) Extra Ammo and Ear Plugs, 4) Surefire Flashlight, and 5) Tweezers and Nail Clippers. I would have included a pocket knife but I don't carry my knife in a bag. It is ALWAYS in my right front pocket. BTW: Has anyone out there ever used a signal mirror, a compass or a credit card fishing hook for survival? I laugh as bandaids are more useful. Just throw all that shit in the trash and buy a small 6 pack of water. Dehydration is your enemy. PS. Paper Towels and TP are a good idea too. ** Be Prepared - No One Is Imune From A Disaster.**
For sure. This was just the first bag we reviewed (because I could fit it in frame) but my daily is a maxpedition pygmy 2. I prefer that one because it has a holder for my 40oz yeti water bottle. Colorado is extremly dry, so water is a major deal for me (we even keep a few gallons in our trunks). Extra money is always a good idea. I also rock a silver and gold bar. I'll do my daily carry bag soon (once we figure out how to film it) but you're preachin to the choir. I agree with everything you said. I'm glad you meantioned a toe nail clipper too! I always overlooked that until my lady got me one of those victorinox multi tools with clippers and tweezers built in. Rides in my every day bag now. (I have never used a signal mirror, compass or fishing hook card either. haha)Great comment and thanks for tuning in man!
I agree. A friend who was an army ranger said TP has many uses other than the primary. Use it to start fires, stuff a wound, partially make bandage, insulation - the list goes on. Being from TX, water is always good!

Love my 2 banger! Been rocking it for a year for my EDC gear. Sure it’s small but it’s enough for everyday life.
Is the holster for a Taurus spectrum? That's my guess but idk

Not making another video just for that, but it was fine. I gave mine to a friend long ago though as I found better options for me. 👍
@ Thanks for the reply, what did you go for that was better? Cheers
Just stumbled on your channel because I’m considering a purchase of this bag. Your frankness and honesty is much appreciated 👍
Welcome aboard! That's awesome man. Glad I could point you in the right direction.

@@seanbowie7966 When SHTF, TP is not optional. LOL
@@texasnannyjoe2049 loL!
All super sensible things to have, chapstick makes so much sense as it has multiple uses.
You're the first person to back me up on that but I have found many uses for ti over the years, so it stays in my hiking gear. 👍
Just picked up this bag at a thrift store for $5 brand new with intentions of using it for hikes with my dog.
Sweet find!
