So, let's get right into it. What do we
0:09
have today? Well, the first thing we're
0:11
going to look at is this bag right here.
0:12
This is from Shanganger. This is their
0:16
chest pack. And I recently found this,
0:19
like very recent, like within a couple
0:20
weeks, and I could not believe the
0:26
something like that. Now, that was I
0:28
think it's on sale. It may be a little
0:29
bit more now, but when I got it, I could
0:31
not believe the price. And what I was
0:34
looking for is um an affordable chest
0:37
pack um on Amazon that everybody could
0:39
get a hold of easily and not spend a ton
0:41
of money. Something that could uh hold
0:44
my concealed carry pistol uh because I
0:46
think um if you're bugging out or
0:48
getting home, if you have a go bag,
0:52
protection is very important. It is to
0:54
me. So, I wanted a chest rig that um is
1:00
uh isn't screaming tactical, looks like
1:02
something that you would wear when
1:03
you're out hiking, and this is what I
1:06
found. And when I got it, I was blown
1:08
away. So, let's take a little bit of a
1:10
closer look at it and see what this
1:14
All right, chest pack from Shanganger.
1:17
First thing we have is we have webbing
1:18
on the outside. So, if you want to
1:20
attach uh, you know, tools, knives,
1:23
pouches, you're able to do that. But, we
1:25
have a Velcro pouch on the front that
1:29
has a stretchy material. So, this
1:31
really, I think, is perfect for, you
1:34
know, putting your cell phone cuz it's
1:36
something you can get to quickly,
1:45
Then we have a zippered pouch behind
1:47
that. And that's pretty generous, too.
1:50
Good size. That'll fit
1:53
my iPhone pretty easily to get a couple
1:56
options there for outside storage.
1:58
Underneath there are two rows of this uh
2:01
Molly webbing, and I'm able to attach my
2:08
The front compartment,
2:10
this is really nice. So, they've done a
2:12
really nice job figuring this out. So,
2:14
we have two large pockets in the back
2:17
with elastic on the front. And then we
2:19
have three mesh pockets on the face. And
2:23
that has elastic as well of different
2:28
secure some smaller items. And then
2:31
what's really nice about this is they've
2:32
actually sewn in some wings so that this
2:35
thing opens up. It does not flop open
2:36
completely and you don't lose the
2:38
contents. It kind of keeps everything
2:39
open. and it doesn't have cord like uh
2:43
some of the other ones does, so you
2:44
don't get hung up on it. This this wing
2:46
is all you really need. Uh it's a very
2:49
minimalist design, but it does a very
2:52
nice job of organizing
2:55
all those little things that you need.
2:57
So, we got compass, notebook, 550 cord,
3:01
got my Ace Beam flashlight, got some
3:03
water purification tablets, a lighter,
3:05
tons of room in here to add more stuff.
3:14
And then we go into this compartment,
3:15
the back compartment. And that is where
3:18
the concealed pistol goes. And it does
3:20
come with a holster. And the holster
3:21
also has a removable thumb strap or
3:25
retention strap. You don't have to use
3:26
that. I don't feel it's needed inside of
3:29
this size pack, but it does come with
3:31
it. This is fully adjustable and
3:34
removable, so you can adjust the size of
3:35
the pistol. Now, this is a smaller pack.
3:38
You're not going to get a really large
3:40
pistol in this thing, but my subcompact
3:42
fits perfectly. I've also got elastic
3:45
loops here, and that's a good place to
3:48
put my spare mag. And then you'll notice
3:50
these tabs right here. Well, what this
3:52
does is this sticks out when this is
4:02
And then when you're opening this pack,
4:03
you're actually pulling on this tab. And
4:05
that releases that zipper and helps pull
4:08
that panel down quicker so you can
4:10
access your firearm quickly.
4:19
Back of the chest pack,
4:25
panel. So that's going to help with
4:27
keeping you cool, but also giving you
4:29
some protection so your gun's not
4:30
rubbing up against your chest. And then
4:32
we have release buckles on all four
4:44
and then a mesh panel that goes on the
4:46
back for breathability.
4:49
Makes a nice harness that's easily uh
4:52
you can get this thing on and off very
4:54
easily and it's very comfortable. I've
4:56
been wearing it out here today and I've
4:58
been really liking it. So, that is the
5:02
Shanganger chess pack. All right, guys.
5:05
