M-Tac Tactical Sling Bag for Men - Crossbody Concealed Carry Bag Chest Pack - Black Mens Crossbody Holster Bag

Very high quality materials and constrictions, show no signs of use after daily carry of 6 months. The many pockets are well designed and usefull.The quick draw feature works well and can be hidden if you don't want to use it (or advertize the fact that you have something in that pocket). Fits a full size PX4 store comfortably and when doing so the bag is still very comfortable and balanced - I can't say enough about how comfortable and stable the bag is.Inner pocket fits an i-pad mini (if barely) and overall the pockets give enough room for everything I found to be usefull.

I'm only a lightweight when it comes to EDC. Before trying out tac bags, I had my keys, wallet, phone, and earbuds stuff into my pockets. I hated that...having stuff in my pockets. So I went looking for a good cross body bag to solve my issues. I have tried, on multiple occasions (and at cost...) to empty my pockets, but was ultimately unsuccessful because I was looking at cross-body style messenger bags and never wanted to carry them around because of the way they fit. Clunky, misshapen, too big, etc. I would have to swing it around or take it off to get in the car, and that was super annoying. Several hundred dollars wasted on that chase. Still...went back to pockets for several more years. This time, I came across a chest-style day bag on Facebook and decided, what the hey. It was cheap. I LOVED it. Almost. It was just SLIGHTLY too small in the right places. If I added anything else, it got a weird bulge, and I didn't like that either. Dang, am I picky. Anyway. Including all my previous experiments, and the one I went through this time, I went through...like...so many bags...so many...like, I'm a little bit embarrassed by it. But I just could NOT find a bag that I liked that was masculine enough to carry all the time and was formed in such a way that was easy to carry; big enough to hold my stuff, but small enough to not get in the way. Then, I ran into this in my search. I kept it in my cart for weeks. Multiple weeks. While I tried other bags. And then returned them for being stupid. Finally decided to try this one out and was almost immediately pleasantly surprised. Of course, this is a tac bag with a...'strategic' design. The velcro (molle), though, is what makes this a winner for me. I purchased a separate accessory to replace the holster and moved my piece to the back zipper, where it fit perfectly. The accessory added more elastic strap storage for my stuff. It is just a TAD bigger than the bag I was previously using, but much more user friendly. I did replace the zipper pulls, though, with something a little more streamline. I didn't like the paracord pulls...they stuck in certain positions and make it look like you were carrying a tiny bag-baby with crazy hair. Pass. Anyway, I replaced the zipper pulls and like it even more now. Way to win, M-TAC; 5*.

I purchased this bag in order to replace the 10+ sling bags I have purchased in the past. I carry a S&W M&P Shield Plus 4” w/red dot and the weapon fits phenomenally. I did have to cut the holster slightly in order for the gun to slide further into the holster. The red dot would hinder the weapon from sliding completely into the holster and the trigger was not completely covered. I am able to store 2extra 13 round mags and 2 TQs in the large pouch with my pistol. I have my phone, wallet (Slim wallet), and small flashlight in the 3 other pouches.The bag is well designed for a right-handed shooter. I noticed in the comments that either another customer or the manufacturer stated the bag can be used by a left-handed shooter. While it is POSSIBLE, it is not completely practical. I am a left-handed shooter and find that no matter how I have the bag slung across my chest I am not able to get a complete and comfortable purchase of the weapon when drawing without flaring my elbow up and putting my wrist into complete ulnar deviation. No matter how you wear the sling bag, the pistol will ALWAYS be canted for a right-handed shooter. Until a left-handed bag is made or an ambidextrous buckle is added this bag will always be for right-handed shooters with the ABILITY of a lefty to use it. I am a lefty and have extensive training with all types of firearms. It has always been the struggle of mine learning how to use right-handed firearms/holsters/bags as a lefty. Do I have to use this bag? Absolutely not, and I’m not saying you shouldn’t buy it because you’re a left-handed shooter. However, I wanted to create realistic expectations for my lefty friends. I will continue to carry this bag as I love the size and design. I will train to make sure I am getting a good draw from any position and orientation.I watched a few YouTube videos on the M-Tac bag and one of them stated she felt the Gen1 vs Gen2 had a different “thickness” of material. Such as the Gen2 being more flimsy. I purchased both the Gen1 and Gen2 in black in order to see for myself and I did not have this experience. I took the time to fill both bags with the same items in the same orientation and complete a few draws. I could not tell the difference. They both have the same feel as any “tactical” bag. The only difference I could see was the Velcro on the front of the bag for patches in the Gen1.The zippers have a nice feel to them and don’t seem to catch. Even with the pistol compartment completely closed and pulling the tab to draw my weapon the zippers felt nice. I went ahead and added Vaseline to the main compartment zippers to add some lubrication so that I can extend the life of this bag given the “yanking” and “pulling” it’s going to experience over it’s life.I gave this bag 5 stars having only used it for a week. I will provide an update in the future if there are more pros/cons that arise.
