Down in Florida now, and have some traveling to do to take some AR classes. Headed down here I just had this realization that "just having 9mm" wasn't good enough to be out on the road for any amount of time longer than a vacation. I opted to leave my AR pistol back in MD to take the LWRC. I had to because of class.I’m well aware that what I envision may not actually happen, lol
What do you do when you travel / hotel overnights etc? Just a pistol? I thought you just made a thread about this. Or do you have a folding AR?
I have this 5.11 heavy cordura tote bag I put a coat, etc... to take into the hotel room. I just break the AR in half and the lower fits the bottom just fine and the upper gives the top a little stretch, but so very normal looking with a coat or something sitting on top as I carry it.
The dream of me carrying the Sig in a backpack over my shoulder while headed out for the day of shopping, etc...EDC never saw the light of day. It just isn't feasible. More of a burden than a help. Plus it wouldn't fit in the pack with my Obsidian attached.
It is so not normal to be out in public and see a short haired white guy wearing Merrells, a Sangin watch, with a backpack on his back. Sore thumb and I don't want to be that guy.
Eberlestock, Viktos, 5.11 and all these other gear companies have built a huge money making business for this fantasy world of PCC back pack carry.
Also, I just don't collect enough anymore for me to even have a PCC. Especially as I am thinning out the heard as I get older.
The Sig sure was fun though.
