Briefcase (GTM-155)

I love returning to this favorite of mine. I’m reminded of a time when nearly everything was built to last and looked like class incarnate. Hear me out. This rigid case braces and supports your carry for ease of drawing and holstering. Want more? This briefcase offers flexible maneuverability through its rugged clasps and reinforced zippers. Can’t get enough? Divided case sections and pockets allow for optimal efficiency and organization. “Time for the real thing, Bill. All you gotta do is pull the trigger and buy a GTM-155.” -John McClane (probably).

It’s superior quality and looks have allowed me to use it as a gym bag, an overnight bag and in its most recent application, a diaper bag for my daughter. There’s always enough room, never too much space and maintaining positive control of my CCW in an inconspicuous side-compartment has never been easier.
