The bags were designed to provide officers greater stealth when transporting weapons to and from home. The racquet bag looks like its carrying a "crappy tennis racquet," a company rep told POLICE Magazine. The Board Pack can carry a skateboard, while the Carry Sling Pack offers female officers an alternative to a purse when carrying concealed.
The bags range in price from $65 to $175.
