PLUG BAG

[steve]

TBD- I had alot of problems with the medium AS bag. Straps ripped off after 3/4 of a striper season. I like the bag, so I brought another. But I think I like the VS bag better .

i had the same problem twice. supposedly, its been resolved on newer bags, but i switched to the vs so I don't know.

the straps on the belt bags get pretty torn up too, i wrap them in duct tape where they come in contact with the belt and that seams to get rid of that issue

Had the same problem with my bag. Sewed a 1" strap all the way around the inside using braid for thread. I know you shouldn't have to do this but the bag has been find ever since.

If you take the tubes out it makes a nice jig bag though.

I keep a pin with a handle in the bag now so when they get caught I stick the pin in with the hook and make room for the barb to back out. I wish I carried this in the past. It works a lot better than the method they use in the emergency room : )
