Whatever you say, Squat-to-pee!

You're not good at this internet thing. You ALWAYS lose.

Whannnbulance standing by for ya.

Whatever you say Deputy Fife. I won't call you "Squat-to-pee" any more, seeing as how you can sit on the seat without squatting......

You being a very small person, can see why that would be important for you.

LOL, there's one guy on here with little man syndrome Barney, and it ain't me.

Yeah, it's you.

There was a harness/holster combo I had seen marketed by Further Faster Designs as the RAP bino case. Handgun behind the bino. Looked interesting but I can't seem to find them online anymore.

Here's some pics from another website:

That FFD is a great idea. Talked to alaska guide creations about that some years ago. Maybe his newer bino packs incorporate a pistol pocket

That looks like a nice bino carry pack. It looks like Further Faster Designs is out of commission right now, though. 403 forbidden on their site. I'll have to try to remember to check back and see if it resolves.

Sounds to me like you might like the Razco?

My S&W 629 carries really well in a 7X

Have the Razco and use it with my Mystery Ranch Quick Draw bino chest pack, it is awesome!

A couple of questions if you don't mind. Does it interfere w/ a pack belt in any way?

Does it have level 2 or better retention? Thanks in advance.

No interference and excellent retention. It is passive retention. I called and spoke with them before ordering, they were most helpful. FYI, the are shaped for your gun, mine is a Ruger Toklat in 454 Casull.

I understand you're not trying to provide legal advice and I hate to be a nit-picker. Possession in National Parks is no longer banned by Federal statute. However, State regulations still apply. So while it may be legal to carry in Yellowstone under Wyoming state law, it is probably not lawful for most people to carry in Yosemite under California law or in the Adirondacks under New York state law. There may be conditions in those places where it's lawful to transport and then possess in your camp.

My point isn't to be like one of those turds that Paul Harrell ridicules, "That's Eweegul!" Let's just say that we NEED it to be legal to carry in National Parks, but we're not there yet.

The Razco looks interesting. One issue I see is having six straps around you to secure it. I also live in the south so it looks Hot! I have a Hill country and a Kenai 3-pt holster. The Hill country is too hot for me, doesn’t hold the firearm as secure as others but it does have decent storage. I use my Kenai 100% because of the heat and humidity in the south. I wear it under my bino pack and carry a daypack for hauling stuff. The Kenai is very secure works well while hiking, biking and hunting.

Bison hunt in the thick of grizzly country (Absoraka-Beartooth)- FHF bono harness w/ Razco holster (S&W 69), an excellent combination

Looks like a nice rig.

In coming back to this thread I missed this picture. That had to be one of those Oh Chit, what have I done moments. I hope there was a road reasonably close. LOL

Definitely!

We had two other guys thankfully; three of us butchered into the night, one tended the fire and rifle- this is grizzly central country just a mile or two north of Yellowstone. Got all the meat hung about 2:00 AM, hiked up the trail about a mile to camp to keep away from the carcass. The next morning we started packing meat out. The road was 7 miles and unlike most trailheads, this one is very high and the trail leads down to the drainage we hunted, so you're hauling meat uphill! We got one load each to the truck and then hiked the 7 miles back to the meat. We loaded up again, but were only able to make it about halfway to the truck. We found a tree to hang the meat and then hiked back to camp- about 21 miles that day (half with loaded packs). The next morning we loaded up the remaining meat and camp and headed out, the meat loads weren't as heavy as the previous two, but with camp gear, probably close in weight. When we got to the meat we hung up the day before we were met by another guy who originally was going to come, but didn't and decided to come in late after all. We loaded him up good and then said f' it we don't want to come back again so dumped our packs and loaded up all the meat/camp and headed out.

The happy ending part is when we got back home and weighed all the boned meat- a little over 600 lbs of great bison meat!
