It's nice having all of your ammo in one place/container that you can simply grab on a moment's notice and run for the hills, or what have you.<br /><br />Mercop uses an over the shoulder type rig for his large travelling bag. My issue with carrying the EDC over the shoulder long distances is that the next day I wake up with a stiff neck. Perhaps the maxpeditions sit much better on the shoulder, but I'd like to test one before I made the switch.<br /><br />--Nick-DogNick-doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08482416085611572221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106494.post-57124530195689917212011-09-15T08:57:19.858-04:002011-09-15T08:57:19.858-04:00Good stuff.

Seems like this might be the solution. I demand that you get an ammo can or two and load them with bandoleers, ammo and magazines for your go-to weapons. It gives me great "piece" of mind to have a grab and go for my G19 and Mossberg 500.Martin Schaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141636305952858816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106494.post-65697507115213500522011-09-13T20:42:42.604-04:002011-09-13T20:42:42.604-04:00BTW, I lived out of only those two bags, and found...BTW, I lived out of only those two bags, and found I like my backpack more for traveling, despite the non-descript usefullness of the green bag for walking into stores and what not. <br /><br />Anyway, it was good to hop in the saddle and put this stuff into use! <br /><br />--Nick-DogNick-doghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08482416085611572221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7106494.post-29051618596881245182011-09-13T20:39:53.932-04:002011-09-13T20:39:53.932-04:00Thanks Martin.
