Why Should You Use a Concealed Carry Backpack?
There are several reasons you should use a concealed carry pack. The main reason is that they are multi-purpose. They are more robust than ordinary backpacks and built to last in challenging conditions.
As we’ve seen with the packs we’ve reviewed, concealed carry packs can be used to transport firearms to and from the range safely; they are big enough to use for multi-day trips and other survival situations.
Finding The Backpack That Is Right For You
As concealed carry backpacks are multi-purpose, you should think about what you’ll be using one for before you buy.
Some of the packs we reviewed are designed more for daily use, such as the Red Rock Outdoor Gear sling pack and the Maxpedition Sitka Gearslinger while others such as the 5.11 Tactical Military Backpack and the Condor 3 Day Assault Pack are designed for military operations and multi-day survival trips.
Backpacks with designated gun holders will conceal your firearms from view completely, most backpacks with holders will carry up to 3 or 4 pistols so you can transport multiple firearms if you want to. Remember, a concealed carry backpack will be primarily designed to keep you safe, so any firearms you carry should be safely and securely stored away and out of sight.
What to Look For in a Good Concealed Carry Backpack
A good concealed carry backpack should be able to hold a lot of items. Look out for how many compartments a backpack has, and it’s liter capacity, this will give you a good indication of how much a backpack can hold.
You should also make sure the backpack comes with a warranty; this will ensure your backpack is secure should anything happen to it.
The backpack should be made out of tough material and should feel durable to the touch. Thankfully all the backpacks and sling packs we looked at were durable and will last for a long time, providing you care for them correctly. The zippers on a pack should be easy to use and not break easily; if a zipper breaks easily, this is a sign of a low-quality backpack.
If you’re going to be transporting firearms in a concealed carry backpack, then make sure they fit securely into your pack. This will ensure they are safe when you’re transporting them and minimize the chances of an accident occurring.
Types of concealed carry backpacks
The main types of concealed carry backpacks to choose from are military/tactical packs, multi-day packs, and sling packs. Sling packs are easy to use and easy to carry. Backpacks can usually carry more equipment than a sling pack.
Military-style packs are designed for more rugged, outdoor activities, while multi-day packs are designed to carry a lot of equipment so that they can carry everything you’ll need for a multi-day expedition.
You even have experience carrying a gun holster in an ordinary backpack, but a concealed carry backpack is a safer and more efficient way of doing this.
