Got a notice in email of a 50% off sale at a vendor I like. Passing it on to you guys.
A small shop that makes a couple items that I very much like. The first is their T3 Bolt Bag, an ‘active shooter’ style bag. Carries spare rifle mags on a removable panel, has pass-through on either side of the bag to access a holster, and is lined with velcro for things like mag pouches and whatnot. I have one of these for each ‘ready rifle’, and it holds mags, a Glock, spare mag, Stop The Bleed Kit, and a few other niceties for when bullets start flying. I’ve got one for the AK, AR, and HK91. At 50% off, these are a good piece of kit.
Other item is this buttpack. Used in conjunction with a ‘battle belt’ and suspenders, this is a nice way to carry essentials in the field. It also has D-rings so you can use it as a sling bag, but it really shines as a buttpack. Again, at 50% off…totally worth it.
I’m passing this along to you guys because I find these two pieces of gear to be quite handy and well-thought out. I’m getting no piece of the action on this, so my motivation to pass this along is strictly out of ‘satisfied customer’.

I haven’t thought about butt packs in years. In hindsight that whole concept of use was at best kind of shaky my core observation is that anything a butt pack can do a small backpack can do better.
I can agree with that. I have no military experience, but my understanding is that the buttpack has the advantage of remaining with you if you have to ditch your pack. I like them because when tromping through the woods I often dont need enough gear to make justify a backpack, which I’ll probably overfill. THe buttpack lets me do the bare essentials.
