Very cool but cannot carry much stuff
By Charles
This is a very interesting bag, it's actually a gun case meant for carrying around sub-machine guns or short barrel assault rifles but it's made to look like a normal bag so as to not attract attention.This type of bag is a sling bag, this means instead of two straps going across your shoulders like a rucksack it has one strap that goes diagonally across your shoulder. The use of a sling means you can have it on your back and then pull it around to your front, open the bag up, get stuff out then push it back behind to your back again without taking the bag off, a very handy feature.Once the bag has been moved to your front it has special "hot pull" tab that can be used to open the main compartment up very quickly. The hot pull tab can be hidden inside the bag if you don't want to use it.How this bag it meant to be used is the main compartment is supposed to have a gun in it.When you need access to the gun you move the bag to your front, use the hot pull tab to open the bag and pull the gun out, the whole process should take less than 3 seconds.Sling bags have a problem in that they can move about a bit when you run or bend over, this bag has a second strap that attaches from the main strap to stop it moving about so much and it does help to a degree.Another problem with sling bags is that because all the weights on one strap, the strap can start to dig into your shoulder if carrying something heavy or wearing the bag for a long time. Obviously this depend of the bags content's weight and the duration you wear the bag.This bag comes with a pouch that attaches to the main strap, this pouch is meant for carrying a concealed hand gun, if you don't want the pouch you can take it off. The pouch can also be turned into a bum bag.It looks cool without attracting attention and doesn't have stupid logos all over it like a lot of bags.This bag has a limited load capacity because it only has a depth of about 6 inches, I think it can hold a maximum of a bit over 20 litres. I think the thinness of the bag is so it's harder to spot and makes it easier to get things out of it when pulled round to your front. Despite that it is still big enough to fit most laptops. I think the triangle shape (instead of using a normal rectangle shape) limits the load capacity as well.As long as you don't totally fill it up this bag is very comfortable.Here in England the intended use of this bag is not allowed, but as a normal bag I would say it's a very awesome bag but maybe needs to be able to carry a bit more.
