    Alright guys I was wondering if any guys on here carry an EDC bag or "man-bag"?

    I started carrying one with me and just wanted to see how many others do this too. If you do, what kind of bag is it?

    Backpack, I'm a college student, it works out well. Not a whole lot in the was of defensive or survival specific tools in it though, thanks to possible "common area"s with "school property"

    I have been looking for one that looks professional, as I am in sales for now. Need to be able to carry iPad, sales material, marketing swag, knives, guns when I can't carry, maybe some snacks, ???, etc.

    I carry a Swiss Army backpack full of my work and EDC stuff.

    The "music pocket" is perfect for handgun carrry, but not when I'm on base during the day. I used to carry in that pocket with my previous corporation who had a no gun policy.

    I keep a backpack full of needful things in my van...but I do NOT carry a "man-bag". Ew. :n00b:

    ;)

    You heard it here first, folks. Put the bag down, and walk away. :)


    But really, I'm just not sure when I'd even carry it. I know 100% I wouldn't take it out of the car and put it on everytime I'm running into walmart or a gas station. Longer excursions such a baseball game or amusement park I'd usually have a backpack anyways, and......I don't think I go anywhere else that I wouldn't just lose it.....:alcoholic:

    I bought this to haul around scout camp with some medical supplies, rain gear, firestarting kit, etc. It's a little small, but well built and worth the $20 from Sportsmansguide.com. Tons of compartments and hidden areas. It only has one strap, so you an easily sling it over your shoulder. There is a decent Youtube video of it online.

    With the molle straps, I'll add on some small pouches for even more storage. My gosh, am I accessorising my manbag? Dang, and the coyote tan matches my boots!!!! ;)

    No, no, no...you're good. At Scout camp is different. People expect you to have that kind of stuff.

    Now lets go back to the version of this thread from a couple years ago...who was the INGOer that was proposing taking a Tactical vest and replacing all the stuff with baby supplies for a trip to Disney Land.
    Come on, fess up. :)

    I tried the manbag, used a Maxpedition Jumbo and a messanger bag, but found it combersome. I think I need to get a good go bag for my car. I like to have medical, and other stuff available.

    I've been thinking of upgrading my bag to the 5.11 Covert backpack. I just can't convince myself to spend the money. Does anyone have an opinion of these?
