Overview

The Sentinel looks like an everyday sling pack. Inside, a loop-lined compartment holds your handgun at chest level, with a pull tab that gets you to the grip in under 2 seconds.

This combo pairs it with our Kydex Pack Holster. It's molded to your specific handgun and weapon light, so you get full trigger-guard coverage and a positive click every time you re-holster. The hook-faced panel presses onto the Sentinel's loop lining and holds at whatever position and angle you set.

The Sentinel still ships with its universal holster, so you have a backup for a second gun.

What's included
  • Sentinel Cross-Body Concealed Carry Sling Pack (black)
  • Universal holster (included with the Sentinel)
  • Kydex Pack Holster with Velcro® Panel, molded to the handgun, light, and draw hand you select
Shipping

Your order ships in two packages. The Sentinel ships from our Missouri warehouse. Your Kydex holster is molded after you order and ships separately, typically within 5 to 7 business days. You'll get tracking for each.

Fit

Choose your handgun above. If your model isn't listed, we can't mold a holster for it yet. Every model is optic ready, so there's no separate red-dot version to pick.

The Sentinel carries best with compact and micro-compact handguns like the Sig P365 X-Macro, Glock 19, and 19X. Full-size handguns up to a Glock 17 fit, but they carry bigger.

If it's not comfortable, you won't carry it.

Waistband carry works until it doesn't. It digs in when you sit, so long drives and desk days are a grind. You're adjusting it all day and checking for printing every time you bend over. And your pants, belt, and shirts all get picked around the gun.

So on the days it's too much, the gun stays home.

Carrying in a sling pack is way better than leaving it at home.

Sub-2-second draw.

Doesn't look like a gun bag

No tactical styling. It looks like any other everyday sling pack.

A compartment just for your gun

The loop-lined gun compartment is completely separate from your phone, wallet, and keys, so you never expose your firearm reaching for everyday stuff.

Quick-draw pull tab

Access your firearm in under 2 seconds without fumbling with zippers.

Hard to snatch

The strap runs across your chest and under your arm, so it's hard for someone to grab the pack and run.

Room for the rest of your carry

Elastic loops for up to 3 spare mags, plus room for your phone, an IFAK or tourniquet, your wallet, keys, a battery bank, and earbuds.

Carriers who stopped leaving their gun at home

5 out of 5 stars

Discreet, comfortable and affordable. … If you have problems carrying IWB this is an excellent option and you don’t have to change your wardrobe.

After a couple of weeks of use, I like the way the bag lays. So many other bags get body geometry wrong.

    Questions before you switch

    Will it look like I'm carrying?

    No. It looks like a normal everyday sling pack. Your gun sits in its own compartment, with no bulge at your waistband.

    Isn't IWB better?

    If you can carry IWB comfortably every day, it's hard to beat. But a lot of carriers can't, or don't, and the gun ends up at home. The Sentinel is for those days. A handgun in a sling pack you're actually wearing beats one in the safe.

    Is drawing from a pack slower than from my waistband?

    With the pull tab you can draw from chest level in under 2 seconds, but it's a different motion from a waistband draw. Practice with an unloaded firearm until it's second nature.

    Will my gun fit?

    The Sentinel carries best with compact and micro-compact handguns like the Sig P365 X-Macro, Glock 19, and 19X. It fits full-size handguns up to a Glock 17, but they ride bigger. The Kydex holster is molded for 80+ models, including light-bearing versions for Streamlight TLR and SureFire X300, and every model is optic ready.

    Is the included holster safe? It isn't Kydex.

    The included holster is thick, adjustable nylon that wraps around your gun and covers the trigger, so it stays protected. It works with most handguns straight out of the box. If you want the locked-in feel of a holster molded to your exact gun, choose the Kydex combo.

    Is my gun secure inside a pack?

    The Kydex holster covers the full trigger guard and clicks when you re-holster. It grips the loop lining and stays at the angle you set. Like any off-body carry, keep the pack on you and in your control.

    Why does the holster ship separately?

    Each one is molded to your exact gun after you order. Your pack ships right away, and the holster follows in 5–7 business days.

    I'm left-handed. Does it work?

    Yes. The strap switches sides for right- or left-hand carry, and the Kydex holster comes in both draw hands.

    Try it risk free

    Free returns for 30 days. Try it at home. If it isn't for you, send it back clean and undamaged in its original packaging for a full refund. Return shipping is on us. This includes the custom-molded Kydex holster.

    Lifetime warranty against defects.
