Looking to carry a firearm (pistol) in a chest rig, like from Hill People Gear? If so, this is a beginners guide to carrying a gun in a chest rig! If you are carrying a revolver, just simple carry it in the pocket that makes the most sense. If carrying a semi-auto, like my Glock 19 9mm, than you need a holster. I am using a IWB holster tied to the MOLLE with paracord, with no slack. Then I changed the zipper pull to have a better purchase if needing to open the pocket. So when backpacking, hiking, hunting, trekking, etc. here are some ideas!

From Hill People Gear:
"Kit Bags are our original and most popular item. Kit Bags were born out of the desire to discreetly carry a pistol in a way that doesn't interfere with a full size backpack. Kit Bags are so handy for keeping small items close at hand on the trail (or in the ATV, or in the canoe, or on the stand, etc.) that many folks choose to use them even without a pistol."
