If you work in the security industry where the requirement is not to look inconspicuous, you will always need covert gear that can blend with your clothing, in this case civilian clothing. Or if you live in a location where mass shootings can happen, then you may need an everyday carry that can provide you some protection.
Israeli tactical gear maker Agilite just released their Laptop Carrier, a laptop bag that can be quickly turned into a plate carrier when the going gets tough. For those going to the office and worried about shootings, this does not scream “body armor” and just looks like a normal laptop bag.
Made of 500D CORDURA Mil-Spec Tactical Nylon, as a laptop bag it can carry a laptop computer up to 16 inches and other stuff that people going to work normally carry such as pens, notebooks, headphones, mobile phones, tablets, keys, and perhaps a sandwich. Apart from the usually business/work stuff, it can also carry knives, pistol, magazines, mini IFAK for the other side of “business.” A holster can be attached to the dedicated Loop CCW of the Laptop Carrier.
Now as a plate carrier, it can accept either hard or soft armor inserts. All the owner has to do to convert it into hands free plate carrier is to hook the sling/strap and fixes the laptop carrier to the body’s center mass to protect. However, this only gives frontal protection, but it’s better than no protection during an emergency. Armor is not included in the package but an optional Level 3A Soft Armor Insert which can be used with it. It is also stab and slash resistant.
For covert security forces, a Gray man cover is included which can then be removed to show identification as first responders so that they can identified quickly in emergencies to avoid firing at friendlies.
With all these features the Agilite Laptop Carrier is actually not expensive if compared to mid range laptop bags. It costs US$109.00 and color options are Range Green, Black and Wolf Gray.
If you think this is something that can give you peace of mind on your way to the office, better put it top in your shopping list when looking for your next tactical gear.
