Hey, Im wondering what yall use for backpacks to carry your pcc, i saw one on gotenda, wondering if there is any other ones and if you got one, can i see a pic of it?
 
I use a Vertx Gamut Checkpoint pack. My TNW ASR fits nicely, with room for a whole lot of other stuff of course. It's not a tiny pack. I also just got a Hazard 4 'Grayman' sling pack I'm looking forward to trying out. I was hoping my Sig Cross would fit, and sure enough, fits nicely, leaving the Vortex 5-25x 56mm scope mounted, without stretching on the zipper at all. The internal straps secure whatever gun very nicely, and there are a couple of choices for how to wrap the external straps to keep it all snug. I'll need to get a plastic sheet and glue some good foam to it though, as sharp bits on rifles stabbing me in the back wouldn't be fun. Fortunately they built in a full length zipper pocket next to the back padding, so it'll be very comfortable once I find the right piece to tuck in there.

Not really a backpack but I'm using Skinnersight AR folding takedown gun case with a paracord sling attached so I can sling on my back. It's very low profile, I walked through car dealer with that, not a single person cares about it. It also has space for a large knife and some survival gears.

Really like the vertx, let me know how the sling one is. Not a fan of the slings since the weight is on one shoulder instead of 2, just hiking around might be off but who knows. Maybe they improved them.
 
What is the legality of this though? I want to carry my FPC to remote places - but technically it cannot be concealed. I guess it could just be completely exposed but the RCMP doesn't like that either and neither do non-gun people. I am just confused like does the bag it comes with count as adequate or does it look too much like a laptop bag. I am thinking of the guitar case issue here. Maybe a Smith and Wesson sticker fixes that? I wish these intentionally obtuse laws could be challenged without costing someone a year's salary.

Reality is no one is around me when hiking these places anyway. So I could just have it folded on the pack. But I am just curious.
 
Transportation of Non-Restricted Firearms, justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-98-209/page-1.html#h-1019997

(3) If, in a remote wilderness area that is not subject to any visible or otherwise reasonably ascertainable use incompatible with hunting, an individual is transporting a non-restricted firearm in an unattended vehicle that is not equipped with a trunk or similar compartment that can be securely locked, and the vehicle or the part of it that contains the non-restricted firearm cannot be securely locked, the individual shall ensure that the non-restricted firearm
(a) is not visible; and
(b) is rendered inoperable by a secure locking device, unless the individual reasonably requires the non-restricted firearm for the control of predators.

So you are hunting, coyotes have a generous open season
When asked, only short answers, and no deceit

Common sense says we should be able to do this......:confused:

Hazard 4 also has a backpack style called the Plan C. -https://hazard4.com/collections/backpacks/products/plan-c-
Similar in size to the Grayman Plan B but non-sling.
 
Definitely, but I mean if it is carried in a nondescript bag while hiking is it considered to be unlawfully concealed. Since carrying it in a guitar case was deemed not lawful and a gun looking bag is too long and cumbersome for a folding PCC.

For me it is fine for it to be exposed most of the time. But some people get weird seeing black polymer and a red dot.

Its funny I run into these people and we have all decided to do the same remote river crossing, hike and camp on the same weekdays xD fromt he same city, 6 hours away.

Edit: Even worse with a T81. It looks like an AK. My wife tried to buy me a maintenance mat and went to Cabela's and showed them a picture. They accused [me] of having a prohibited weapon. I could run into a do-gooder who may make the same complaint. Unlikely, but rather avoid the hassles.

Oh I really like this one. Does it fit the ruger PCC or takedown 10/22?

I just tried it with the Ruger PCC and while I had some concern if it'll fit with the red dot, It does!
It also fits very comfortably on the back with good padding and straps, no problem carrying it on a hike in the back country.

Awesome that's what I'm looking for. Could you tell me what all those attachments are called for internal parts like mags? Are they velcro attached?

Sorry bud for the late reply, yes it uses Velco MOLLE, so any cheap amazon magazine pouch works great! One side of the bag does have a hardshell plastic cup to hold a barrel well in place. Fits 2 rifles nicely and its quiet and snug.
