Question for you mall ninjas and Tactical Teds: How do you carry your Glock 19 (or other pistol if you're a pleb)?

Big Timer surprisingly, I dont carry a knife. I actually plan to address that in a video soon. In gym shorts I can only imagine carrying in a belly band type holster but I actually have no experience with them.

Best Gear Review of this bag I've seen so far. And I've watch several. No Bullsh*t, a little humor, and REAL Dad stuff. Although I'm Grandpa now. I'm old as F**k and a lot fluffier than I ever was. Maybe I need a gym membership. But me and my Grandkids are protected by a Glock 19. James Yeager used to say, "Glock 19 is never the wrong answer".

Damn good review and info delivered comically in under 9 minutes.. caused me to subscribe on just one vid (that never happens). I have no idea why or how others spend 26 fuggin minutes reviewing a bag they've owned 30 minutes.

Dude I'm so appreciative of you saying that... I pay extremely close attention not to do all the shit that drives me nuts in other videos. Number one is taking too long to get to the point... like we are 4 minutes in and you haven't even shown me the thing we're talking about... and another is talking to me about some shit you've never even used. I've carried guns and diapers in this thing for years. Thanks for sticking around!

I have the Maxpedition Kodiak Gearslinger. For 8 years, this bag has been so reliable as I carry it almost everywhere. (As you can see I'm wearing it on my thumbnail pic too) To everybody who's thinking of purchasing, you will not be disappointed. They are made very high quality with so many pockets and variety of uses. 10/10!

LOL. I have the same bag, same color. Has held up like a boss for 6 years. The only difference in my setup is that i swapped out the pull loop for the gun/hydration compartment with hi-vis yellow paracord. Also, couldn't tell, but i have the Maxpedition velcro holster with an additional loop for a mag. Keep 'em coming, Icy.

If you find that you're having trouble finding the zip lace under pressure you could try securing it in place with some black electrical tape, that might be strong enough to hold through the day without making it harder to open the zip.

Great video. I dont have carseats anymore (thank god) this bag is awesome I wish is had 2 straps but the sling has its versatility. I had a 5.11 rush 12 but a too bulky And firm.

@jamesgosling4303 4 жыл бұрын

You could make some minor modifications and optimise the draw on this bag a lot more than your current configuration. The gun pouch zip you took the loop off is set in the correct position; the zip that you kept the loop on requires too much indexing and is a weak link. Change the small zipper paracord loop for a much larger fist sized zipper pull that is ideally weighted so that it hangs down and can be grabbed easily (try a small monkey fist lanyard, that dangles down almost into your right hand when the bag is positioned on your back. Now in one fluid motion you grab the larger zipper lanyard with your right hand, pull the lanyard down, then forward and then across your chest. When the bag is on your chest grab the bag with your left hand anywhere to secure, and continuing in one motion with your right hand without altering your grip on the zipper lanyard now pull backwards on the zipper and open your gun pocket, now let go of the zipper and grab your weapon. Much less indexing this way and a faster fluid all in one motion to open your bag. (One thing you may wish to do is choose your shoulder strap length and then set it and then fold up and then securely cable tie the excess shoulder strap out of the way semi permanently.)
