Hill people gear
Thinking about trying out one of their kit bags to carry a n frame SW revolver while rifle hunting and summer backpacking. Anyone here have/had one of their kit bags?

Hill people gear
Lots of reviews on them out there. I have a "heavy recon" I think that I use for my Glock 20 while hunting/out in the woods.
I like mine a lot. Its convenient and carries easy. Also can keep some survival gear/ compass there as well.
Works great for riding ATVs as well.

Are the chest straps big enough to fit over a heavy winter coat?

Had one since 2011. I use the full size for everything from a 1911 to a G43. Straps are plenty big enough.

Thanks for the information guys. Looks like I found my Christmas gift.

I had no idea these existed.
I think I would benefit from one of these during hunting seasons and those harsher activities like snowmachining and such.

Makes backpacking with a full sized pistol a real option. Especially when your hips are busy with the load bearing belt.

I recently bought one of the V2 Kit Bags.
Primary application is to carry a readily accessible handgun obscured from view while hiking in warm weather.
Secondary application is to maintain critical items on-body during times that require self-sufficiency, specifically items crucial to survival.
Tertiary use is to maintain on-body access to frequently used items that don't belong in pockets while in an environment that carrying a chest pouch is reasonable.
I will drop a review in a few months once I have more time with it, but so far I am happy and find the price to be very good with relation to quality and utility.

I have had the Snubby Kit Bag for 2 years now and use it to carry a G29w/TLR1 while hiking and backpacking. I like that it can dock to my backpack or run independently when just hiking.
So far it has held up well, although I am gentle on gear.
Not as fast to draw as I'd like. Adds about 1.5 seconds to my first round hits. Maybe more practice is necessary.

After talking to Hill People directly I was almost sold on the jogger as it doesn't look too tactical. However, their website specifically points out that N frame revolvers are not ideal. Probably going to get original v2....
