IMO the people who pick up on other’s CCW are usually themselves CCWs. Most Karens wont notice and find something else to complain about. I like the fanny pack!

[@Nathan.44-40]

Fantastic EDC load-out !! Thanks for the video Brother! Nate- (Ohio 🇺🇸💪✝️)

[@reapingpunish69]

That’s what I love about this very incognito. A lot of the tactical companies make it too obvious that you’re carrying a gun with adding camo.

[@Joeylikeswakkie]

Wow that actually looks good. Thanks for the review! I’ll consider that one.

[@Eberlestock]

Thank you for the great overview of your set up with the Bando!

[@andrewmconrad]

Great product!

[@user-yo3bh4nx4m]

Just ordered the bag

[@vladimirussachevsky1315]

Great review thanks 🙏🏻

[@kristenburkett4274]

I'm looking for my first bag and I really like this one. I think if i could find one like this with the quick drawing feature of the 945 i would have everything i'm looking for. I even like the color.

[@Dwayne7834]

Thanks for sharing. Good information. 👍🇺🇸

[@andrewmconrad]

Thanks Dwayne

[@blainegibson4731]

I am of the "gray man" thought. To me "overt" might catch a bullet before you know it's a fight But to each their own.

[@thetacticalape8852]

Vertx SOCP fanny pack is another great choice and they have slots in the back for a fixed blade.

[@Frankivitis]

Ordered one. Looks great. My question is with the Tactigami and the Sig setup. Is the material in the bag where the Sig and mag are attached to sturdy? I'm wondering if for support there should be a light plastic backing attached to velcro and then the pistol and mag?

[@TheWildGonzo]

Nice set up, scissors are a must and pliers are a must. I carry a Skeletool and micra with scissors in my Fanny pack. Be safe

[@chazzy1237]

Very cool video Andrew! I will look it up

[@andrewmconrad]

Thanks Chazzy!

[@ExplicitBoricua101]

Ihave to work on my wallet and knife. I have the Streamlight edge. For knife, I'm looking at the Benchmade Claymore.

[@jck197]

What holster are you using?

[@fernandomendoza4667]

I receive my today in the mail . I like the bag a lot more than the vertex socp. But I was let down completely because the belt is not that long . Doest not work as a sling bag . Wish belt be longer . Unfortunately can not use it . Wish they could create a solution because really love this bag .

[@jacobst.germaine6197]

I got a kydex holster from a company called Razco that has a large hook and loop backing and it's perfect in here, protects the trigger perfectly and it's great for drawing and re-holstering

[@andrewmconrad]

Thanks, I'll have to check them out

[@kimt3817]

Will you do a video of drawing at the range with the Bando?

[@andrewmconrad]

Yes, I most definitely need to do that. Next time I go to the range I will

[@tribalessence5909]

I have the XL, black, i like it, i have no issues with a hip bag, its convenient and i dont have any old stereotypes about a "fannie pack" its all a mindset, its nice looking, pouch infront of the carry area is great, its not meant to be any more or less than what it is, so if you want a hip bag this one is great, just get yourself a aftermarket velcro holster because the one it comes with isnt that great.

[@flexluthor1691]

Wouldve helped if u mentioned which size

[@Obsivision]

Hello! advise which bag to choose, standard or hl? I have a gun Fort 17r (Ukraine) 180x132x34 mm

[@terryhopkins8059]

Hello, is the bag in the video the Standard or the XL version..?

[@joec33]

I bought one for the same reason. At the price it’s a great deal. Not too big not too small

[@andrewmconrad]

Agreed, just the right size

[@whatheheck911]

To add, pick lock set

[@watermann8200]

2 different schools of thought on Grey man vs more overt look with dress and more tactical look. Some say grey man will keep you from being targeted right off. Others say seeing someone who may be a threat to the bad guys plan may cause the incident to be avoided altogether.

[@andrewmconrad]

Luckily the average criminal is stupid and doesn't pay attention to those kind of details. If a highly skilled operator were to target an establishment and survey the crowd first, then yes, they'll pick you out, but a criminal is looking for an obvious deterrent (like an armed guard). Nevertheless, I blend right in and with it packed the way I have it, it doesn't stand out

[@coldcasewatchesccw7158]

Would love to have seen it on body and how you draw. Thanks.

[@andrewmconrad]

Coming soon. Next time I go to the range I'm going to practice with it

[@AG-no1dq]

I think they recently came out with this bag in XL. You should do a comparison video.

[@andrewmconrad]

I'll probably get one in the near future

[@chipsawdust5816]

I was considering the Vertx SOCP as it is also well-reviewed but this one is about half the price, or at least $30 less in today's prices depending on what day you hit the amz site. I may have to add a velcro holster for it, but the amz site won't ship one to my wonderful blue state so I may have to drive "next door" to find one. And I've never heard anyone say they went wrong buying Eberlestock equipment. But I'm thinking the XL might fit my style a bit better, carry a few more IFAK items or whatever. That said, I don't want a suitcase on my waist...

[@stellatedodin656]

Just received m6 xl version after getting the normal size and finding it too small. The xl is not a huge bag. While more spacious for sure, its overall footprint is not substantially larger than the standard size…

[@lentztu]

I have both and like this more. The SOCP had too much material on the inside. (Smaller versions for both). I like the SOCP a lot too but use the bando more often

[@TheWildGonzo]

Seems heavy but I'm considering getting one though.

[@sarahdresler9776]

I have both a Glock 23 and a Walter P22. Would either of these fit in that conceal area with an extra mag? Or do you think the XL would be better?

[@andrewmconrad]

Glock would be tight without the extra mag. Walter would probably fit. I would go with the XL for the glock

[@dannyamador2160]

Does it have the quick pull tabs similar to the 945 industries?

[@diegolainfiesta]

No

[@JonathanBaileyn2u]

Is this the XL? Or standard? Ty for the review.

[@andrewmconrad]

Regular. The XL wasn't released when I purchased these. Planning on getting the XL eventually though

[@jgg12334]

How did you secure the TQ to the top of the flap? 3:04

[@andrewmconrad]

There's an elastic loop. Snug fit, but it fits and doesn't move

[@fernandomendoza4667]

I bought the standard it wound fit the gun right . I prefer the bando xl way better

[@silverflash1675]

Do you think the Xmacro would fit in this?

[@andrewmconrad]

It "should" fit. You might not get a magazine in the back like I do. But when you add a red dot to the macro it's 6" high and might be too tall. I do plan on adding a red dot to my 365x and I have thought about getting the macro, so I do plan on trying different configurations in there. As someone else mentioned in the comment section, they did come out with an XL version of the bando bag to fit those larger frame guns.

[@mboyle6]

Do you physically carry this or have it around your waste?

[@andrewmconrad]

@@mboyle6 around my waist

[@scooteractual]

Will the standard fit a Glock 19

[@diomedes39]

Yes

[@ThePaPappy]

County Comm 8" Ti Hooligan Forced Entry Tool - Titanium ~~~~and~~~ Adjustable Wrench - Titanium 4 Inch Small POM Pepper Spray 10% OC concentration, & 2M Scoville heat units ??

[@andrewmconrad]

I was thinking about some pepper spray. That 8" entry tool would be too big for this particular bag. I also thought about a small adjustable wrench, maybe in the future.

[@tendyedits1272]

Only thing it’s missing like the Vertx are pull cords for quick access. I think having to zip is too slow and awkward

[@andrewmconrad]

Agree 100%

[@tendyedits1272]

@@andrewmconrad they’re a couple I found but without testing them I’m not sure haha.

[@wv_shooter9618]

Whats in the fluval behind you

[@andrewmconrad]

A snail, a shrimp and a few plants. Gonna eventually add some nano fish

[@ExplicitBoricua101]

Casaual and doesn’t say I have a gun. Love it.

[@andrewmconrad]

Precisely. Especially where people come to vacation and it's warm, plus the colors I purchased don't scream tactical. The camo, yes, the blue and gray, nope

[@tlpoutdoorsman]

Is that the regular or XL?

[@andrewmconrad]

Regular

[@tlpoutdoorsman]

@@andrewmconrad thank u

[@damonharrington2948]

$79 pen… I’m not there yet 😅

[@ericg649]

Can you wear this cross body??

[@Kevin_Barr]

NO the belt isn't long enough.

[@ericg649]

@@Kevin_Barr thanks!

[@johnathanrmarsh]

Subscribed as soon as you said "Hopefully I never have to use this." A lot of creators could learn from that mentality.

[@andrewmconrad]

No one thinks about the mental ramifications about afterwards.

[@coryhoggatt7691]

If you’re going to carry a CAT, stage it so you can apply it one-handed.

[@andrewmconrad]

I have practiced one handed application in shooting competitions along with one handed reloads. But good suggestion.

[@MikeCamposMortgage]

Too small. Barely holds my 43x and keys.

[@ztnupe8]

They make 2 sizes

[@kylewood8327]

Not a fan of this type of carry at all! If you need your weapon, whether a gun or spray or knife, it’s too slow of an access. Hope nobody steals your bag cause then you’re screwed.

[@jeffdur1330]

Yeah I agree, I'd never carry my gun like that.

[@jacobst.germaine6197]

I carry appendix when I'm out and about, but this bag is nice when I'm jogging in my neighborhood. I don't love off body carry in crowded public places, so this fits a very specific use for me personally.

[@eddiekane1202]

Unfortunately these days fanny packs do scream firearm. Most people who carry know about these Fanny packs. I bought one for the backcountry so I don’t have to carry my ruck around after I set up camp. I have a chest holster for my G20 so I have the whole bando bag to use for whatever I happen to be doing

[@Gunner-ll1zd]

Fanny pack 2024 = obvious ccw

[@andrewmconrad]

Not necessarily. The amount of people wearing fanny packs, especially down here in SWFL, is increasing exponentially. My daughter and all of her friends wear them, obviously not carrying. My wife wore her fanny pack to dinner last night. It just blends in in 2024

[@DaVinci740]

@@andrewmconradyeah I see so many younger people wearing cross bodies, which I like, I say the more the better so I don’t feel so goofy when i do lol

[@Cakesteel]

Literally go anywhere and there are so many fanny packs no way its obvious its way more common than you think to wear them times are changing

[@drewjanssen9127]

Have you been outside lately?

[@chipsawdust5816]

Fanny pack 1970 = disco down :)

[@Surviveandthrive777]

Until someone runs up and steals it off u

[@andrewmconrad]

That's not happening. I wear it with the buckle and strap under my shirt. Someone looking at me from behind has no idea. Even if they wanted to cut the strap, they'd have to lift up my shirt

[@krispewkrem3]

I have worn a fanny pack every day for years. Never been an issue. You sound like the type that assumes the worst in any situation.

[@Lanolin410]

You lost me at carrying a fixed blade…

[@jeffdur1330]

Every one of these edc videos is the same. Everyone literally carries the exact same stuff. Geez dude, you're on here just trying to sell stuff.

[@chipsawdust5816]

Gotta wonder why someone would watch the video with an obvious title then gripe about the presentation.
