Another way to carry an XD!

[dairycreek]

Until recently the only way I ever carried was IWB. But due to old age and some health problems IWB carry has, for me, become a real problem to carry off well. I discovered the Maxpedition Jumbo Versipack and it has become a real savior.


The pic shows it with a large Beretta but the concealed carry compartment fits the XD45 very well. It has a velcro lining and you can get a velcro holster which will hold the XD in place with no problem. I have to carry a lot of "stuff" and the Jumbo allows me to do this with no problem. For those who may need this kind of carry assist the Maxpedition Jumbo is sure a good way to go.

The pic also shows the bag carrying a 32oz bottle of water on the side and it will do this if you want. I don't but the space can also be used to carry more "Stuff" if you need it. Very versatile pack

Maxpedition makes great gear. I have a bunch of MOLLE pouches I use for camping from them.

Why does everyone automatically say that if a guy carries a bag that isn't shaped like a backpack, it's a purse? I mean, really, most of the crap that women lug around and have to deal with (make up, panythose, high heels, etc.) is seriously pointless and unpractical, but I'll tell you one thing they've got right: the small, light weight, convenient bag in which to store and carry things.

Oh yeah. I forgot. There's already a word for that. A purse.

Anyway, dairycreek, I think that's a sweet pack and I've actually had my eye on one for a while. They're just so expensive...

I agree that they are expensive. On the other hand they are so doggone well built that I suspect that mine will last for a lifetime.

Could work for some folks. Wouldn't work for me.

Probably true for a lot of us. Used to be true for me until it just had to work for me and then it was a real blessing.

Unless you are on a camping trip... it's a purse.
No offense to anyone. Tom Brady carries a man purse to. I've seen it!

You can usually score good deals of Maxpedition gear on Ebay if you look long enough.

My CHL Instructor always carried a "Fanny Pack" and none of us really thought much about it. It wasn't until I was in his class and he ripped the velcro loose and pulled out a full size Kimber 1911 that we realized he was carrying a little bit more than his wallet and maybe a pack of Oreos in there. Weapon completely hidden (satisfying CHL requirements) and totally accessable. Although I never thought of them like alot of people do, I don't look at the "Man Purses" quite the same anymore. Due to limited mobility in my right hand and arm from injuries in an accident, I will probably have to go with something like that. I had considered a shoulder holster rig. Living in Texas, that might be fine during the Winter, but not very feasible during most of our Summers.
