Good afternoon,
Does anyone have any recommendations as to the best way to carry concealed while backpacking? I have a Milt Sparks EX - which I absolutely love, but IWB won't work because of the hip belt. Ankle holster won't work because of leg fatigue due to long distances hiked. Shoulder holster won't work because of backpack shoulder straps and difficulty in accessing.
Looked at the Wilderness Tactical Safepacker, but it's too much of a 'man purse' for me. Although it may be the only way to go. I can afford sacrificing a bit of masculinity on the trail if it means quick, easy, unimpeded access to my trail pistol.
On the trail I carry a Kahr PM-40. Small size, light weight, and big bore. She's loaded up with Winchester 180gr SXT HP, and every other round is 180gr FMJ just in case I need the extra penetration.
Thanks for your knowledge and insight. I appreciate your time and cooperation.
