Every Day Carry mod for shoulder bag/sling pack/satchel

[ArGyLe64]

So I decided to modify a Blackhawk SERPA holster to fit in my Every Day Carry bag. Without going into too much detail I have provided pictures. I basically affixed some velcro to the back of the SERPA holster and it will stick to the inside of the back pocket or any other MOLLE system. So without further ado, here are the pics. These are in chronological order.

I thought everyone was going with the drop leg holster!!!


LOL!! that looks like it advertises almost as much as a drop leg.

The funny thing about that is, that's my diaper bag for my kiddo.

I did something similar with a Maxpedition Jumbo and a Kytac Braveheart. I can always use the holster by taking it out of the bag if I want too. I just don’t like the IWB holsters very well. I use the standard OWB Kytac as everyday wear. I didn’t screw the Velcro to the holster; I used the stick-on Velcro instead. Its been working good for about 6 months. I don’t use it everyday.

Tell me more about that bag.

I used to think I didn't need one, but after taking a Rapid Response/Active Shooter class last week, I'm starting to rethink that and there are so many different bags out there.

I don't want a great big one. Just one big enough to hold a backup pistol, maybe two or three spare mags, a spare flashlight and batteries, a folding knife, a multi-tool, a small first aid kit and maybe a bottle of water or two and perhaps a couple of powerbars or something in case I get left at a post/area for a couple of hours.

Oh! And velcro on the outside like yours is a must! I too am a collector of morale patches.

When Jenn and I got some ink a couple of years ago our artist at eyewitness tattoo asked us what we carried after everyone else was gone after hours. He knew exactly why I was carrying a 5.11 bag for. He was cool though a fellow 1911 carrier. Jenn had spotted his piece earlier in the day when he was working on someone else.

Get the UTG bag like mine. It's not $100 like the Maxpedition bag and it has been holding up just fine for over a year now.

Honestly I think putting a gun in a bag is as bad as the purse, when you get robbed and some one snags your bag congrats you just armed the person robbing you......

I thought about that. Not going to happen.
