I know, the pack is a bit heavy for a dayhike. When I wear this pack hiking, I usually have it loaded down with a 72 ounce hydration bladder in the large middle pocket, emergency medical supplies, two compasses, 550 cord, cellphone, small flashlight, multi-tool, firestarter, and other sundries in all the other pockets. Fitted properly, it holds the gun securely muzzle down. Because the thumb break the 5.11 is a little difficult to operate behind the back and in a loaded backpack, I normally use the Maxpedition holster. Though I bought a Maxpedition slip holder, I also have a 5.11 handgun holster, which has a thumb break for better retention. This is perfect for mounting either Maxpedition’s handgun holder or another similar hook and loop product. There is loop Velcro in two large strips on the left side of the pocket’s interior and a loop field on the right side, against the wearer’s back. The draw is similar to a small of the back holster presentation. My finger is off the trigger and the gun is canted away from my back. As shown below, take extreme care and practice safe firearms handling when drawing a gun from this location.
Without much effort, I could insert my hand into where the gun would go. I could grab the right side rear pocket zipper at the base of the right strap and open the pocket. I tore open the box and put it on straightaway.
I received the Falcon II from an online retailer for a little over $100.
