I've noticed more and more urban youth broccoli haired guys carry messenger packs and man purses now. Pretty smart method of carry if you ask me. You can have something substantially bigger than a typical compact pistol in a belt holster. Having a tec9, mac10 or an AK draco on you is a tremendous advantage to hold down your turf.Most guys in the department use sling bags to carry off-duty, or at least that’s what a range master told me. None of the guys I work with ever thought of it.
