I carry a "fanny pack" from Cabelas, with their logo stamped on the front. It holds my S&W 36 and a 6 round speed clip. There's also a place for a cell phone. I've tried packs designed for handguns but they look to much like.........handgun packs. I like to use something that blends in with what many other hikers are carrying. And by the way, another advantage of this type of pack: If someone were to threaten me and ask for my wallet I'd say sure, just a second, it's right here in my pack.
