I'm new to guns and am planning on getting something cheap like a Maverick88 for my first gun, hiking/camping/living in the woods isn't safe with all these coyotes, pumas, skinwalkers, windegos, and forest junkies around. So I need to be ready for whatever.
Open carry for once seems like a good idea because its my fucking property, some 9mm pea shooter won't save me from forest spooks.
I want to get a vest first on amazon because there are no milsurp stores around and I can use the vest for recreational purposes.
The mag pouches could probably fit a bunch of snack bars (a lot of energy/snake/protein bars have so be careful about that), other hiking necessitates or fishing materials
Advice, better chest rigs, etc welcome
