I have been searching for a better way to carry while I am in the mountains. When I go I am usually there for at least two days and often times a week or more. While in the back country I'm a minimalist and don't carry a lot of stuff. I have been just using a small "school book" type backpack. I always take a pistol and usually carry it concealed. Carrying concealed is just easier to do when I happen to run in to someone else. When I carried open in an holster many of the people who I met (sometimes young women), were intimidated by the gun. It's just easier to carry concealed, I know it's there when I need it (I have killed a bobcat and a rattlesnake that surprised my dog). Last year I just put the pistol in the small front pocket of the bag and it works okay, but it's difficult to get out sometimes, which makes it pretty much useless.
What do others do, or does everyone just open carry? I am thinking about trying a Kifaru Koala
What do you guys think, does this look practical?
Kifaru stuff is really expensive, but is probably either 1st or 2nd in quality and design for back country packs and equipment. I have three of their packs..
