Reviews & Ratings for Viktos Upscale 2 Sling Bag — 7 reviews — Page 1

Well constructed bag with quality materials and hardware.
Its discreet styling is perfect for CCW- no flashy tactical logos or Molle webbing everywhere that screams TACTICOOL! or THERE'S A WEAPON IN HERE!
It's the perfect size for EDC essentials- bigger than a cross-body waist pack and smaller than most slingbags. Just enough room for a compact pistol, wallet, phone, multitool, powerbank, keys, and sunglasses.
The pistol compartment has 4 zippers, which makes it easy to access whether you're a righty or lefty, or if you just want to switch carry to the other shoulder.
Although they're listed as options, I don't see how they could fit a ballistic panel and/or a hydration pouch into the pistol compartment and still have room for a pistol. And if such options are added, a wider and or padded strap would definitely be helpful to handle the weight- water in particular is quite heavy ~2 lbs per quart/liter.
The sunglass pouch could be a tad bigger- my Shady Rays are curved but aren't terribly big yet they're a bit of a challenge to get in and out of the pouch.
The one big con that cost this rating a full star- the edges of the backing of the long Velcro panels on the inside of the pistol compartment are sharp. On several occasions they've given me a 'paper cut' as I reached in to get my pistol- sometimes cutting me just under the fingernail. Those edges should have been folded over and sewn down, or melted down with a match.

Awesome bag that is just the right size. I only wish the glasses pocket was slightly bigger. Getting my sunglasses in and out is a challenge. Fit my glock 19 and two spare mags in the back pocket. Little tight, but easy enough to access. Now i just need the armor insert.

The bag is well made and smaller than most sling bags (which is what I wanted). The only drawback is the shoulder strap which has virtually no padding. They could easily solve this by beefing up the strap or including a shoulder strap pad.

I’ve owned a few tactical bags that were $100 or more. The quality in this bag is awesome for the price and it’s not too bulky to carry. I actually carry a full size Glock 19 with a Trijicon RMR /TLR-1HL rail light , an extra mag, and wallet in this bag. Very comfortable to carry. I love this bug out bag
