Beneath a chic, yet inconspicuous, exterior—which mimics the silhouette of a classic, feminine handbag—both the satchel and the tote hide a wealth of tactical features:
- Lucy Tote—featuring a strategically positioned TacTec System compatible pistol compartment with YKK zippered pockets, the Lucy Tote is a full-sized covert handbag intended for accelerated sidearm access. Designed for off-duty officers and women who conceal carry, the stylish, yet functional Lucy Tote also includes an integrated concealed pocket to hold a badge, wallet or passport and a number of accessory pockets. The spacious main compartment offers ample room for day-to-day needs, and an interior organizational panel that features a built-in flex cuff slot. With a durable nylon twill exterior and water resistant construction, items remain dry and functional. The Lucy Tote is available for $109.99 MSRP in Iron Grey and Military Brown.
- Sarah Satchel—furnished with an abundance of hidden tactical features, the Sarah Satchel also incorporates a TacTec System compatible pistol compartment with magnetic closures, enabling easy and efficient access to a sidearm. Large interior organizational pockets allow plenty of space for both day-to-day accessories and tactical gear, while metal hardware and authentic YKK self-healing zippers ensure quick and reliable action. Bartack reinforcements, nylon twill exterior and water resistant construction provide optimal durability. The Sarah Satchel is available for $109.99 MSRP in Iron Grey and Military Brown.
