I wanted to do some show and tell here.
I made what I call is a paddle pack. I wanted to create a EDC/CCW all in one solution.
I was hoping to get some feedback here.
I wanted a carry solution that was easy to grab and go. I believe all of the bugs are worked out of this solution as i have been using it for a few weeks with no negative results.

I made an adjustable holster to accommodate any small frame auto and or revolver. I also made a spare mag holder. The handgun in the picture is the KelTec P11 9mm. Thanks to my BIL for loaning that to me for the pics. My intention was to buy the LCP for this project. In due time. : )
Additionally you can see the Admin pocket on the outside panel. There is one large pocket with smaller expanding pockets on the front of it.. Also as pictured I incorporated elastic webing for retention of additional items and the pockets. I also am making a EDC model for folks who wish not to use this as a ccw solution and just an edc solution. It will have an admin pocket on each panel front and back..
My first prototype model had a bottom panel that went about 1/3 of the way up the side. In the picture below you can see I have modified it to unzip all the way down the side. I used 1.5" elastic webbing as a retention device so the pack doesn't fall open under the weight of the equipment you place into it. Hope that makes sense. If you look closely you can see the retention elastic in the top pic at the bottom.

And lastly the reason why its called the paddle pack finally is this. I integrated a G-code paddle as the retention system.
I found that the velcro belt loops on other gear didnt work great. I was unable to quickly attach it to my belt and it was just an unfriendly solution.

Hopefully some of my customers will find a use for this new product. I'm pretty excited about it. Some folks didn't want the paddle and just a belt loop. I'm thinking of offering that as well so it can be slid on the belt.
In summation you should be able to carry your handgun, torch, basic first aide, folder and multitool, pens etc.. The possibilities are pretty expansive.
Hope you like it! : )
