Maxpedition Versipack Fatboy or KISS... or HTFU and buy some 5.11 shorts

[Redskinsfan]

i like the Maxpedition shoulder bags and gear. I bet no one will call it a purse to your face.

Me too. the Maxpedition is solidly made and I carry one everyday.


I have NO concern what any man thinks of me because I carry this bag. I already have a beautiful wife, I know how hetero I am and I have no one to impress.

Best regards,

Terry

elton john had a wife too. im pretty sure he also carried a man bag.

I think we need to start a revolution!

Lets make man bags (at least canvas tacticool ones that don't look like purses) socially acceptable!

Just think of the crazy survivalist crap you could carry around with you all the time.

I'm looking at getting something to carry while the wife and I are on an upcoming vacation. What I carry on my person during an everyday event:

1. Wallet w/cash and cards
2. Pocket knife
3. Cell phone
4. Car keys
5. Pistol
6. Coins
7. Pen

8. TLR 1 light
9. Spare batteries
10. Flint/tinder/whistle
11. Lighter
12. Power gel
13. Mace
14. 2 Spare mags (G19)


Kbar TDI fanny sack. Smaller than most, deigned for weapon draw. Can also attach to a belt to carry or defeat cut and grab crooks. Does not scream gun.

I carry one to and from my truck daily for two years. Use it for any walking I do. I recently wore it on a day hike that also involved going straight up (at times crawling) a 400' change in elevation. Works great.

Ron at Tactical Shotgunner carries them. I have yet to see better in such a small package. Right or left handed, designed for quick removal of the gun. If you need more stuff drop one mag. I stuff a mag in the area for the barrel used for left handed draw.

If you are an out of control gear whore, may not work for you. Maxpedition gear is great stuff too.

Hawkepak and tommygunpak make models that fit on a regular belt. At some point I will have one of these two. There is absolutely nothing "swishy" about the Hawkepak or some of the tommygun models, especially the discreet models. They both are simply a covered holster imo..

Just sayin'

Bags are great for traveling, or even a fanny pack. Makes it easy to leave your pistol in the car if there is some reason to. We were in Missouri recently, and while you can open carry and cc, there are certian restrictions on it. So, instead of having to pull a pistol out of your IWB and put it in the glove box or where ever, you can leave it in the bag, in the car. Coming back to the car and retreiving your weapon is easy, and you can carry all your other stuff in the bag too. I have a Maxpedition bag too, and use it for EDC.

Having a 3 year old I'm always carrying a bag anyway, looking at getting a orange Fatboy soon.

 

[Backpacker]

I use a Maxpedition Fatboy at times and a Maxpedition Kodiak if I am bringing a notebook computer along. Let people think what they want.

 

[Grizhicks]

Go with the Maxpedition Jumbo over the Fatboy; has the waterbottle pocket and has no problem holding a full sized pistol. My Jumbo (in dark tan) is my travel/need extra room bag. I normally carry a Country Comm BOB for work (X-large) or church (large). While they look more like a brief case, they are really just larger "man bags".

The guys that won't carry one or give you **** about one, are just to insecure to carry one.

This is not a purse or a man bag, it's a Satchel!

Second best line of the movie, first being "He was a Retard" followed by a close third of "there is a jungle cat in the bathroom!"

Man bags (not Indiana Jones)

 

[Hoosier8]

Be brave, go commando and make your wife carry the bag. It's vacation!

I have a black canvas courier bag for an every day bag. Not a single person has commented on it not looking "manly". It has a torso strap for when I ride my bike (as in motorcycle).

So far the only comments I have gotten were a "thank you" when using something I have carried in it whether it is a flashlight, first aid kit, multi-tool, pen, or other useful item.

 

[IndySSD]

I wear carpenter style pants or Cargo Shorts and require no additional "bag" to carry my EDC gear. I do use a belt "pouch" that looks like a Nextel Phone case/clip that holds my LED flashlight, my Multitool and 1 of my spare G22 Mags.

Other than that I have everything broken down by pockets with as even of weight distribution as possible.


EDC gear list :

1. Wallet (credit card bifold type with ID window + Money clip attached)
2. Keys
3. Personal Cell
4. 3.5" Gerber partial serration easy open folding knife
5. 2" case pocket knife,
6. 128MB USB flash drive with anti spy/malware+ virus cleaning software
7. Spiral top notebook and pen inside ziplock bag
8. Backup + Work ID + LTCH in Ziplock bag
9. Work Cell + Bluetooth
10. G22+spare mag in uncle Mikes IWB Holster
11. fullsize Multitool. (Can't remember which brand is in the EDC pouch, probably craftsman).
12. 2nd spare mag (for total of 3 mags, 45 rounds of .40S&W)
13. Anodized aluminum LED flashlight (Says water resistant but meh... its just got rubber gaskets on the battery and lens caps.


I see no need for a Murse of any sort.

NEGATIVE!

Best line of the movie was "Not at the table, Carlos!"

[Blackhawk2001]

I've never been able to get comfortable with the single-strap pack, although I've owned several of them. I have an old Land's End canvas briefcase that would work fine if I weren't carrying a computer everyday. Most of my EDC stuff is carried on my person (my pockets are always full).
