The Vertx VTX5012 Commuter Sling Pack delivers concealed carry capability in a low-profile urban design. This single-strap backpack provides quick access to essentials while maintaining operational security in civilian environments.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional backpacks, the VTX5012 features ambidextrous wear capability and rapid deployment access panels. The heather OD green colorway blends into urban and outdoor environments without screaming tactical. Internal organization systems separate electronics, documents, and gear into dedicated compartments with silent zipper pulls.
