Yep.


And besides, the fanny pack has plenty of room for the gps not to mention extra ammo and snacks.

I use the recon kit bag and added Blue Force Gear's 10 speed double pistol and AR mag pouches to the front, they hold my range finder and GPS. The large rear compartment hold only the Glock 19 or 23. Headlamp, lighter and fire starters go in the accessory pocket.

And a neck pillow.

On the other hand, if he wanted advice on whether to use a kit bag or a fanny pack, he's smart enough to ask that question. I think.

I just wear bino's with the neck strap and let them hang over the kit bag (runners). One thing I like about this is that it puts a little distance between the bino lenses and my body. If the bino is against my shirt it may fog (external) if I start sweating on a hard climb.

Went on a short hike yesterday afternoon (70F!) and the kit bag works great for my pistol but the Vortex 10x40's are way too big/heavy to carry in the bag.

A small chest pack, designed to carry a pistol and other stuff. Can be worn with a backpack so that if/when you shed the pack you still have your pistol handy. Go on the Hill People Gear website to check it out.

I have the original kit bag and it's very comfortable. I carry my rangefinder, caller remote and a drag strap up front. Compass, fire kit, meds, extra shells, hand calls, glasses and a small survival kit in the middle. The back carries any pistol I own and is all readily accessible.

Right now I carry my binos (8x30 Swaro's) on the neck strap off to my left side. Still playing with different ideas on how to wear the KB low and binos high on a harness.

Exactly, except shaped like Spongebob instead of titties.

I also use a AGC Kodiak CUB, but it's got no place for a pistol. IMHO, nobody's successfully converged the binopack and chest holster. The latest attempt is the Eberlestock Nosegunner, but it fails at doing both jobs.

Does HPG use Rick's web hosting service, their site sucks and hangs and sucks and sucks.
