Looking for a good range bag...

CAMullis · 06-06-2009

I have been searching the web for a decent range bag. The one I am really interested in so far is a 5.11 Tactical(R). I found it on Brigade Qurtermaster website(5.11 TACTICAL® RANGE READY BAG - Brigade Quartermasters). Does this look like a good one or does anyone have any suggestions?

How about this one:

Looks like a good starter bag for the price. What I liked about the 5.11 Tactical(R) was the pockets for mags. I'll probably take a look at Gander Mountain though to see what they have. Thanks for the idea.

I'd say skip the 5.11 bag, save $60 and get one of these:
MidwayUSA - MidwayUSA Competition Range Bag PVC Coated Polyester Black

From what I gather, they're darn near the same bag. Only downside is that everyone has them, so it could get confusing at a match.

Thanks for the reply. The description looks similar and it says it has magazine pouches. That is the biggest thing I am looking at right now. Too bad there's no pic of the bag opened.

That's why you have to INGO it up with an INGO morale patch with bacon clusters.

Buy a Dillon and forget about it.

any links you can send my way on Dillon for pics and specs? Which specific one do you recommend?

Closest I could get with about 10 seconds on google.

Some of those are for the new "Compact" range bag, but the features seem to be the same.

lol. could have thought to do that myself. Anyway, it does look very similar and much easier on the wallet. I think I'm gonna put this one at the top of the list now. Thanks again cougar.
