Satellite Antenna Bag as a SBR Low Profile Carry Option
Fri Nov 7 2008
Using this Sat Com Bag for an AR15 SBR an alternative low profile carry option. We bought a Sat Com Bag (Satellite Communication Bag) from an online supplier. It is a mid-quality bag. Made overseas, with mid-quality materials. It is designed to hold a fold up satellite antenna and a length of cable. So the shape and function of the bag are designed around that piece of gear. This bag is 20 inches long and 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide. The bag lends it's self to a non-standard rifle bag. If you are concerned about people seeing you carry an obvious rifle bag, this Sat Com Bag can be an alternative carry bag for an AR15 style rifle. The easy to open top flap that offers full access to the bag works well for this use. Once opened, the broken down AR15 SBR is ready to be removed easily. The shoulder strap has a buckle so that you do not need to fight the strap while getting things from the bag. The AR15 short barrel (10.5 inch) upper fits easily in the main compartment of the 20 inch long bag

The AR15 short barrel (10.5") upper fits easily in the main compartment of the 20" long bag
A small piece of nylon covered padding is used to separate the upper and lower half of the AR15 to prevent noise and scratches during transport
The standard lower half of the AR15 also fits easily with the stock collapsed
Once removed from the bag it's a simple matter to assemble the rifle and attach the sling. So this bag works well as a inconspicuous bag for carrying a rifle. There is plenty of room left for magazines, cleaning supplies and other tools
The bag is 20 inches long
The bag is 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide
The OD green bag is an almost identical coy of the SatCom bag (although it was bought quite a bit sooner.. so maybe the Sat Com Bag is a clone of it.. Click Here for Satellite Antenna Bag Review

This one has one large compartment, and zippered side compartments. There is also a non zippered inside pocket that was used for the length of wire cable. This bag has one wide, padded shoulder strap and carry handles at each end of the bag for ease in carrying and grabbing the bag. There is plenty of PALS webbing around the sides, back and even on the carry strap, so many smaller pouches can be easily and securely mounted to this bag. There are plastic (glass filled nylon?) clasps on the carry strap and strap adjustment. These parts are also mid-quality. We have only just received this bag, so we have not had time to use and abuse it, but looking at the quality of materials and construction, it seems this bag will last through typical use for quite a while, however it would fail quickly with heavy use or abuse
