Needless to say how this could impact our battle for our rights in Ukraine. Therefore, we must sign and share it - EU citizens need our help in their fight for their rights!

How to buy the best concealed carry bag

Сумка для скрытого ношения оружия «9TACTICAL».Сумка для скрытого ношения оружия «9TACTICAL».

On the market there is a great amount of bags dedicated to the concealed carry of small firearms , but the problem with choosing one with a fast draw time still remains. Most of these bags fulfill their dedicated function of hiding firearms, primarily for transporting them. However when it comes to draw of the weapons themselves, or even less so reloading them, the practical implications of these bags becomes zero. Another differing aspect of the majority of these bags made for concealed carry is their clearly militarized “tactical” design.
