You guys are creative, how about coming up with a solution for carrying a sidearm in a manner that makes sense and is universally adaptable to any weapon/any holster? I prefer my sidearm at 11 O'clock for crossdraw with my right hand. I use a Bianchi holster tucked into the gap between my pack belt and small pocket but it is not completely secure this way.
Perhaps you could devise some sort of accessory that would enable us to attach our sidearms to our packs but can easily be removed and transferred to our pants belt if/when we need to drop our pack (like when you're in the closing yards of a stalk). I know I'm not the only person to try and fail in accomplishing this. I've tried chest holsters (loud when wearing a pack and get in the way of a bino bivy), drop holsters that drag your weapon through wet brush, shoulder harnesses that don't work, etc. The Gunbearer solved so many problems for rifle packing, can't ya do something comparable for sidearms?
