Those tabs are for ripping open to get fast access to your firearm. I am lefty and use this bag daily. When I have to off body carry the Ccw compartment holds a loaded glock 48 with 2 extra magazines. Here is the key to quick access left or right draw. Do not use the loop for the gun Get a velcro backed kydex holster specific to your firearm. I use one from COOKS holsters and have left justified and it as fast as any off body carry i have ever used. I take the same holster and stick it in the LV6 when I am running or biking.

[@MrFeuerzauber]

Great review and interesting bag. May have to look out for it. the straps I recognize from other bags that I have: the zippers form a 90°-angle at these points, that means you can use them for quick access: When you position one of the straps between the zippers like you did at 11:37, you can actually use them to pull the compartement open quickly. Just choose the side from your assistance hand (referring to your gun grip), pull sharply on the strap and with it the bag away from the body and the zippers should open up, running along the 90°-angle, grab your gun with the main hand and go for it. I hope my English can be understood here :)

[@barrybueler3356]

I use the rush 12 sling pack for my get home bag works very well. I do like the less tactical look this one has.

[@mixonmixon2723]

This bag has been my edc bag for 2 years now. Pound for pound the best. Just wish I could fit my iPad Pro 12.5 in it!

[@ResidentGex77]

Hey GT, This review has been awesome! I have been stuck for years taking a backpack with me. Messenger bags give me a sore back carring it on one side and most every sling has been of a size that I had to choose between fitting in a light pullover or a water bottle. I gave up on them a long while ago because of this. Having a dig through your channel and reviews I stumbled upon this! Brilliant! I sourced a store that had one here to check out and walked out with one in tarmac! Finally a sling that doesn't have me choosing ... and ... protects electronics I have by mounting the water bottle outside. The gusset fits my insulated 32oz Klean Kanteen nicely. We aren't allowed concealed carry over here, but, the CCW area in the back makes for a perfect padded 10in tablet storage along with a large power bank, freeing up space inside. Thank you again for you brilliant review. I hope you, your family and friends are all staying safe in the current COVID pandemic. Rez

[@Sherrodja]

So many uses.. even could be used to carry fishing lures and gear. Very useful if you fish from the banks.

[@adammackenzie]

Yup !

[@m0600194]

I love the wide shoulder strap. As a big guy, I find most sling bags do not fit comfortably on my shoulder and tend to ride down or dig in. Looks like that strap adjusts for days. May have to look into this as my EDC/bugout combo bag. I still find it hard to pay over $100 for a sling bag, but the comfortability factor and huge water bottle holder has my interest up. Thanks for the review!

[@Jasondranoff]

This bag is way better than the vertx commuter and thats $125 this quality and design is better IMO in every way. I think for 100 bucks is fair for what you getting.

[@TenSecondRuntime]

Oooh! Looks like a reworked UCR! We've loved 5.11's UCR sling bag as a diaper bag for >2yrs. Yea it's smaller, just means I leave the kitchen sink at home. We love how ya can sling across your chest and be hands free. Great for changing a diaper or whipping out a granola bar. Being able to tuck the main strap under the side handle w/o cinching it creates a briefcase mode that is so handy when loading up in the car. I really like the pen/knives/multitool slots on this pack. The UCR's bungee is more suited to items like butt paste or obviously tq's. I'm always unclipping the shoulder strap and putting the dogs leash through the strap while I get the kid out of the car. Just hangs there at the bottom. I have a 2nd UCR that I use for EDC/errands. Holds my hammock, diaper or two, and the minimum kit we need for a run to the park. As a dad it's been perfect for me. Might have to give this version a go! My poor Vertx Commuter is getting no love as it is!

[@dtox1283]

Im a big 5.11 fan and I have: masanger bag "mike", rush 24 2.0, rush 100, all hazards prime, moab sling bags (small and big, convert stacel, lv18, dart etc. Im litteraly sort of person that is using and abusing bags and I can say that you have the best rew of this things on youtube. Thanks for sharing and posting

[@The_Essential_Light]

One negative about the water bottle pocket is that it takes away space from the main compartment when a water bottle is in it.

[@ronchristianhidalgo6231]

I'm not sure of anyone said anything yet but that CCW pocket, the little tabs with velcro (@11:25) are supposed to assist with a quick draw if you're concealing. You velcro either of the tabs to the outside then pull the front part of the bag away from you to basically pry the bag open to access your firearm. The zippers were made to withstand the harsh pull when you pull the bag open to draw. I bought the bag for father's day and have been testing it for a bit... I honestly prefer IWB carry but if you want to carry and prefer to go out in your gym shorts or clothes that make it a bit challenging to conceal, it's a good way to conceal.

[@mookiesan]

I think the CCW pull tabs are designed to pull away from your body when wearing the bag. For example, you have the bag on your back, slide it around to the front, then grab the pull tab and pull away from your body allowing the main compartment to drop away from you to allow access to CCW.

[@Owl566]

M Alton yep! It’s pretty obvious when you imagine it on you 👍🏻

[@keithlambert6217]

I’ve had 4 or 5 of the 5.11 packs and I really like them but they’re all tactical. I was looking for a “less tactical” pack but 5.11 doesn’t have many options and it tried this. I wanted a day pack for a trip overseas. It is perfect day pack, camera bag, overnight grab and everyday CCW bag. I use it daily and will for a years to come. Amazing pack in every way.

[@TomahawksNShotShells]

Vertx my man, they got some "less tactical" gear for you

[@BASE5NYC]

Never seen a 5.11 store..pretty sure I’d go broke in there. Not sure why they don’t have one here in New York City...anyway..cool bag, nice review. - and 5.11, send this guy some bags to test already. He’s a great reviewer.

[@CASTRO45ACP]

If you have any store that sells guns to cops or sells security guard stuff or police accessories like belts and whatnot they typically have a huge 511 section that’s basically it’s own store, I live in Philadelphia and we have a couple.

[@ljaysperspective1775]

5:11 makes great bags. I have the Moab Rush 6, the Rush 24 and because i teach a Teology Class at my local Church during the School yr, I also use the Gear Rush delivery lima bag. I luv it! There are many good edc bag manufacturers, but for me, its 5:11 or Nothing! And no, I'm not in law enforcement r sponsored. 5:11 makes good quality edc gear and it works for me. Good vid thx for sharing.👍

[@johneroyale]

You leave those tabs out as you said, and pull on them away from you to quickly access your CCW. You probably already figured that out by now, but for those who are wondering the same, there ya go.

[@Ricky-ez2nh]

I like the 5.11 UCR bag. It looks like the stabilizer strap is better. The molle is on the outside with the UCR so easier to free up internal space.

[@Jessica33077]

I'm a backpack person too but I love this sling and I now use it almost everyday, I did change the stabilizer clip with a small carabiner for that reason, almost lost it twice

[@2006Whippet]

Kinda laughed at the hiking portion because that's where I walk my dog. :)

[@sinosabesnotemetas]

I've got the same bag, those in ccw compartment are pull tabs: you leave them out attached to velcro and after a bag sling pull them away to quick access the ccw

[@gideonstactical]

nice.

[@reltius2993]

The strap on the CCW compartment is meant to be tugged on to get quick access to your gun.

[@c.r.chandler5905]

5.11 should thank you because you sold this bag on me. I was trying to find a sling bag to fit my needs because I on body carry CCW but I also need to carry a tablet and edc stuff. This bag is perfect for my needs. Outstanding review

[@timdahl8912]

Brother, 5.11 should be sending you bags to test out! :)

[@Ayrton4everrr]

Those 2 keepers in the concealed pocket should be looped as to prevent the same pocket from opening and falling off, if you want. Similar to the 2 or 4 banger bags

[@joshuazombie3699]

I think the tabs in the ccw pocket are to attach Velcro reflectors to for bicyclists. Not sure!

[@yaddi3434]

The lv10 doesn't fit right. The straps don't ride right. The backup strap actually pulls the bag AWAY from the shoulder causing it to slide off. It can ONLY be worn on the right shoulder due to design and cannot be switched. I much prefer the moab 10. Just my .02

[@LateNightProductionsYT]

Thanks that's really useful as I can only use my right shoulder!

[@MichaelWebber]

I'm on an ongoing quest to find the "perfect" bag for stowing under the seat on flights, so thanks a lot for this review; messengers and slings don't get the travel love they deserve. Whatever I choose or take needs to leave room for both legs under the seat in front. IMHO zippers are better than just buckles with Velcro (which is typical for classic messenger bags) because stuff can't accidentally snake its way out from under a flap. I tend to favor a large 32L day pack as my carryon luggage (Patagonia Paxat is the right size with fewer straps to get in the way than most) plus my messenger since, as you showed at the airport, in a pinch the messenger can be rotated to the front while the day pack is worn on the back, leaving both hands free. Being able to reach passport and papers in the messenger without removing either bag is convenient. The only problem is the "wide body" effect where I no one can bet past me in an airplace aisle. The one thing I don't like is the right hand only configuration. On the other hand the sling design, vs. classic messengers with ambidextrous straps, seems to keep the sling in the small of the back better. Kudos for trigger safety on you cc. With single-action modern pistols with no safety (the infamous Glock rocker bar in the trigger is for DROP safety), the holster IS the safety. No pens or loose junk can get in the trigger guard, but the quick release gives you fast access. Stay safe. BYW my collection of fugly Griks is now up to 3 units.

[@yaddi3434]

My rush 12 or lv18 fit great under the seat. You don't have to have a sling

[@mikesly5]

Hi dude, clear, understoodable, nice accent, love your job done on each vide ! Thanks From France !

[@da.reverend]

I bought both this bag and the Mike delivery bag the other day. The lv10 seems to be an upgrade to the old Covrt ZAP from back in the day (which I still have). One of the reasons why I bought this bag is to see if I could pack it as my only travel bag. I love packing ultra minimally when I travel. I can, indeed, pack everything I need in the lv10 if I want, including my iPad Pro. Once we can get back out in the world, again, I’ll try travel with only this bag.

[@RFDChurchHill]

I think im going crazy. Tried this bag at the 5.11 store and im right handed and i cant stand that it goes over my right shoulder.

[@dimasarayan2327]

This will be my nxt travel bag,im gonna get diz as a gift for myself nxt week

[@ac3toni]

The C-clip can be replaced with a Nite-Ize #2 S-Biner Slidelock. Works fine.

[@stevoelmo]

I have the Rush 24. The GOAT in my opinion. I have a little bum bag I wear over my shoulder for little day trips. Bur this slightly bigger one from 5:11 WITH BOTTLE HOLDER. Looks perfect. HOWEVER, I am torn between this and the more compact 4 Banger Bag. PS After watching your bang 2 & 4 reviee. I think this one wins for the day bag. Only thing is my back can get sweaty, but this looks like the one! TBH though if I was confident my water would fit in the 2 Bang I'd go for that.

[@Kojimalosophy]

I get that this one not having MOLLE makes it more lowkey, blends in better with crowds without yelling "I'm a tactical militarily looking back I might be packing!" BUT , functionality wise, the 5.11 Rush MOAB 10 blows this out of the water, plus that one is ambidextrous, has an amazingly ingenious rapid access pocket for the concealed gun, AND is attachable to the RUSH 24 and the RUSH 72 backpacks, the MOAB 10 is hard to beat, if only it had come out in a non-MOLLE version for a more lowkey approach : /

quick question, my friend. Does the shoulder strap dig into you neck while wearing it with a regular T-shirt? Sling packs are supposed to be pulled close to your body for a proper fit, but My Moab 10 kills me with that kind of digging!!!

I am Australian with some of the world's strictest gun and knife laws and even I found this comment to be stupid. I'd carry a gun if I could, I have been robbed at knife point, I know people who have been robbed at gun point here. Your only legal option for self defence is to "trust" the person robbing you does not want to turn a robbery into a murder and comply. And for me, having a knife pulled on you is kind of a deal breaker with the whole "trust" thing. Police are scarce, you have a better chance of being hit by lighting then to have police nearby when you need them, if you get the chance to call them "you never do" they will still take 20 minutes even in life or death situations. After my mugging I called them, it took them 25 minutes to arrive, the police station is located only 5 minutes drive away so try to work that maths out.
