Should you have a "Bag Gun"? (Vertx EDC Commuter Sling 2.0 + Sig Rattler 300BLK)

Overview of my current "bag gun", which is a Sig Sauer Rattler 300BLK in a Vertx Commuter EDC 2.0 backpack. Thanks for watching!

Law enforcement would be more likely to recognize ‘tactical brands’ than your normal citizen. I could see that being a potential issue if you were to get pulled over for a minor traffic violation and the LEO happens to recognize it as such. Not to say people with ‘bag guns’ are up to no good… but one can see from where the concern may stem.

[@robertjohnson9756]

Maybe in my experience most LEOs aren't gun people its just a job for them and if they're sidearm snd equipment wasnt issued to them they wouldnt know anything about it they couldn't tell you brand names but yea there are some who are big in to gun/edc world who would recognize brands and those officers tend to the cooler ones not the ones who got into law enforcement to be on a power trip

[@gbell92]

In some states if you are stopped and have a CC license you are required to inform the officer that you are carrying. So in that situation an officer recognizing the brand isn’t a bigissue

[@americanmade422]

It's not illegal so that wouldn't be a concern

[@francisco4194]

Great explanation as to why the SIG rattler with rifle ballistics makes more sense over the B&T 9mm

[@ImNick97]

A sandman k would be a pretty cool option for the rattler. Really short and light. May even be small enough to stow while it’s on the gun. Not the quietest can but it’ll definitely make the gun more bearable in an emergency situation.

[@InferiorRifles]

I believe the sandman k would still barely be too long to fit my particular bag, as the Omega 9K is already a pretty tight fit. It would likely fit in a lot of other bags though

[@H.Green83]

@@InferiorRifles is the delta p brevis still being made? Its a little shorty beer can affair it was all over KZbin and instagram a couple of years back but don’t see anything on it nowadays. Would likely work perfectly for something like this.

This was on sale for $139 today for Memorial Day. Just picked it up! Thanks for the review.

[@Stay_at_home_rad]

Glad to see this! The 2.0/ rattler has been my go-to for the last year or so

[@sofloflow]

.300BO & 7.62 are my favorite rounds for this sort of thing.

[@gjhoward]

For anyone wondering, you can fit a 10/22 takedown or pc-9 takedown with magpul stocks in this bag.

[@Goodzz]

I was looking for this answer. Thank you!!

[@kurt53641]

Here is an issue. Yes, .300blk is better than 9mm. However, both rounds can kill. Now enter your ccw. You own a Glock, a B&t APC9 pro with a Glock lower may make sense. Carrying same ammo and magazines for both ccw and backpack makes sense. Now .300blk will cut through IIIA soft armor. And .300blk subsonic would break ribs and not puncture level IIIA soft armor.

[@Covertdaily]

How is this even a thought? Why would my side arm need to have the same magazine as my bigger, more capable gun. If the main gun runs dry why not just switch to the side arm ? I mean if you have a 2 mag loadout like this guy, what Scenario do you really think your gonna need more then 60 rounds from a bag gun

[@shootinbruin3614]

I just noticed that you drilled through the vertical grip of the APC9 to allow cable pass through. Neat trick!

[@guntalk90]

I love your videos and cloned a Rattler after seeing your first video. Definitely one of my favorite guns.

[@TuckerDale89]

For a broken down AR-15 upper and lower check out the 5.11 tactical covert molle panel it’s what I’m using for my bag gun. Not super quick to deploy but keeps everything from flopping around

[@Liljana-e6e]

Glad to see a new rattler video

[@See-yw1vw]

Look forward to your videos!! Great stuff!!

[@Thergood]

In the real world 99.9% of people won't recognize a Vertx pack from a Jansport or 5.11 pants from a pair of cargo Dockers (I don't wear "tactical" pants for other reasons, but point remains.) The vast majority of people are oblivious to what's going on around them, let alone that some dude's pants have extra pockets or they've got a bag with a logo they saw on that viral tik tok video of a shooty gun guy.

[@ThePromptWizard2023]

LEO will possibly, and might mistake you for a bad guy

[@Gurn_Blanston]

​@@ThePromptWizard2023 I'm an honorably-retired police officer with a successful law enforcement career spanning 30 years. Shitbirds don't carry $3,000 Sig Rattlers in $200 sling bags.

[@Snapper314]

My Sig Rattler is small enough to fit into Any Regular Backpack. Which makes it an Awesome Bag Gun!

[@ThePromptWizard2023]

My gun bag for my CC rifle is a normal small backpack. S&W FPC 16" 9mm PPC folds in half, fits perfect, and can deploy from the bag in 4 seconds (my record). I think this Vertex bag is going to become known for CC sadly.

[@chummymcgee2823]

You gotta post more videos man, you’re really good and interesting

[@Mastersnake392]

I would have to double check, but I think the 5.11 select carry sling bag could fit a rattler with a 6-7 inch suppressor fairly well. The only issue would be finding one these days since I think they were discontinued

[@The10thManRules]

I assume that any adult carrying a backpack, especially a man, has a shorty rifle, spare mags, and a trauma med kit in it. The make and model of backpack doesn't matter. All that said, I have a Commute 2.0 with a G17/Omega 9k/MCK 2.0 that fold up nice inside. The weight is not overbearing. I initially entertained the idea of a 8.3" 300B with a 17 Defense integrated folding lower AR pistol but it was so heavy that I better be looking for trouble to walk around with it.

Look at the Maxim CGS Micro Signature Suppressor… it’s basically a mini CGS Hyperion, only adding 4.6” to the bare muzzle (its direct thread). So basically a suppressed Rattler will be the same length as a 10.3 unsuppressed Mk18 with a folder.

[@Mastersnake392]

the webpage for it says its only for 8.5 inch or longer barrels

[@utahgeoff]

Curious as to why you got rid of the BOSS.

[@xCYNICOUTCASTx]

Also interested to hear this

[@GldenRetriever]

Same

[@DD-hz3ts]

My guess? Not being able to run the switches on the top got too annoying and brightness doesn't go up high enough for daytime contrast vs light background The BOSS is a very night centric, "I need to rip this thing out of my bag with zero snags/weight" sorta thing When you need to take it into some other environment its shortcomings stack up very fast which is why it's such a niche rarely seen product vs say the RAID

[@TeensierPython]

Should you carry a tourniquet when you are carrying concealed? Does it look like you are looking for trouble?

[@MxMe-su1ch]

IMO the "backpack gun" is obsolete honestly. We can fit full sized ARs in backpacks now. If you've got the time to pull something out that isn't a pistol, you have the time to deploy a full on rifle.

[@KM_1983]

I was looking away from screen when this was said… These are the first 2 items you should put into the backpack after the gun itself. A magazine and a CAT 🐈.. WHAT?!! Turned and looked…. Ohhh a C.A.T.

[@xDeVeYx]

are you confident running this gun unsuppressed? I have heard some people have issues running subs unsuppressed

[@InferiorRifles]

I’ve personally had no reliability issues with supers or subs (suppressed or unsuppressed) so long as the gas valve is on the correct position. I believe that most of the issues people have had come from either 1) Having the valve on the incorrect position or 2) Using lightly loaded subs.

[@wood-wheel-wizard]

I like the bag, but figured my Nike would be better for concealment. Fit my scorpion easily.

[@merrette]

Did you SBR all of those? If so, why? I'm pretty sure it's illegal to carry a suppressed firearm. You can have it with but not attached. I may be wrong but please clarify if so. In Florida your setup would be illegal as a pistol.

[@InferiorRifles]

It’s not illegal in any way to carry a suppressed firearm.

[@merrette]

It's illegal to carry it concealed with the suppressor attached. And the vertical foregrip is illegal unless that is a SBR with the tax stamp@@InferiorRifles

[@InferiorRifles]

@@merrette you have bad info. And it’s an SBR. Carrying suppressed SBRs and pistols in bags is VERY commonplace in states (like mine) that have constitutional carry. Google is your friend.

[@GenVirtu]

Would you recommend this as a range bag for pistols?

[@TeensierPython]

Why not? It’ll do the job. I like bigger range bags. So I can carry my spotting scope, chronograph, tools, first aid kit, and some other stuff. (I shoot outdoor at a multi-use range both close and long distance). If you are just going for a quick shoot; nothing wrong with a little bag. If you are shooting at an indoor range you don’t need the extra stuff anyways.

[@jimallen8238]

Easy enough to pick up an old Nike, Adidas, or Jansport bag from the thrift store. Detach the logo and stitch it onto your 5.11 or Vertx bag. Now you look like everybody else.

[@BossHugo84]

Hey when you buy that APC9 Stock does it come with everything you need to install it ??

Unless you buy a stock that comes with the hydraulic buffer assembly, you will need to re-use the one that comes installed in the gun from B&T.

Woops. I carry mostly tactical backpacks. I just like the look. Guess I'll have to try for something else. Never considered an AR in a pack as a carry option.

You get less worried the more you carry. Were I live you can ccw a pistol, but you cannot ccw a sbr. Its weird

[@Sgtroblin787]

Make the pack even more tactical, because all of them people who have committed crimes with guns none of them them used tactical backpacks. They were all cheap W-mart and none brand packs.

[@anthonydukeiii6799]

50 yards max range for self defense, therefore 9mm is adequate. You will damage your hearing firing an unsuppressed rifle.

[@ChristopherR1981]

I think it's a legitimate need... just use common sense. IMHO in a world where psychos are gunning down grocery store shoppers, there is a legitimate need to something more capable than a regular pistol. I don't consider a PDW an "everyday" thing you would carry though.
