Chest Pack for hiking

[cdf41]

Been watching the Backup Revolver thread down below , and saw a couple chest packs that were being used.

Has anyone heard of or used this pack? Looks good online, it's not a Hill People chest pack but looks like a good deal for getting started.

I like the prices. Also checked out the bino harness set up. It had quite the harness rig, and in specs showed the ?"x?". I didn't see size/volume numbers for the chest pack. I never got into the habit of packing binos, here most hunting is second growth or swamp. Just spit balling, the chest  pack has straps, the bino harness has padded straps and a yoke . Wonder if you can get the chest pack with the bino harness' rig ? One attach behind the other, on the harness set-up ? I always appreciate having gear info shared.

Looks like a copy of my hillpeoplegear runner's bag

I carry a Hill People Gear original kit bag every day when walking the dogs. Carry water, dog treats, mini binoculars, etc. (They are $140 now)

Here's the HPG

The above picture shown carrying my JRH 500 (pic below) -- some one asked how big of a handgun you could carry in one.

For the price, I'd sure be willing to try the Boundless if I didn't already have the above pictured HPG and its little brother. For me, the front chest pack works better (more comfortable and easier access) than a small back pack

Alaska Guide Creations has some great bino and chest packs. Plenty of different pack sizes and configurations to choose from.

That sho is a nice pistol.

I own one of these and am a big fan. Worth a look!

This carry mode never occurred to me thanks for posting. I'll have to look into a smaller version of a chest pack for my motorcycle and carry piece. Wearing AIWB on a crotch rocket makes me "painfully" aware of my crotch :-)

I have been looking at drop leg pouches and may have to try both because hunching over the tank may be problematical on a crotch rocket with a chest rig.

I've it in black, and it's easily modifiable if you want more capacity. worth the try _________________________________________________________________________https://www.amazon.it/Marsupio-Cosciale-Miltec-Incursore-Militare/dp/B00F5VHX5Y/ref=asc_df_B00F5VHX5Y/?tag=googshopit-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=194882127267&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=11555230014427350806&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1008885&hvtargid=pla-124098384966&th=1

Would like to have something like that in a camo shoulder bag.

Just received mine from Boundless Performance. It’s a lot of pack for the money. Looks great to me.

Thanks cdf41 for the heads up!

You're welcome! Mine is supposed to be at the house Monday.

Good way to conceal a handgun out on the trail. Should hopefully fit a Glock 23/22 size handgun.

It definitely will. It has two separate zippered compartments. I had my binoculars, range finder, cell phone in one compartment and full size 1911 in the other. Also tried with N frame revolver and
4 5/8” Blackhawk. Each one worked.

I didn’t really get one for a handgun. My Diamond D Guide’s Choice rigs are going to work with this chest pack just fine. But if wanted to conceal a sidearm it will work great.

I just can't do that pack thing. Every time I have been in a wildlife scrape where I needed a gun I needed it right then. How fast can you get the first shot on target out of one of those?

[cdf41]

Mine will be mainly for supplies while out hiking around the masses, with the handgun riding back up to another under a shirt or jacket.

Now if I were wade fishing in a river would find a way to attach the pistola to the outside of the bag the way MackaySagebrush does down in the Back Up Revolver thread.
