Bear Defense Holsters And Pistols - Chest Harness vs Belt vs Bino Harness

In this episode I sit down with Tim Anderson, founder of Invader Concepts, the holster company behind the chest rig I wear. We dig into the real pros and cons of carrying a pistol in the mountains—under your bino harness, attached to the harness, on your pack belt, or on your hip. We also dive deep into the cartridge debate for bear defense: revolvers vs semi-autos, capacity vs stopping power, and why 10mm has become the dominant choice.

Tim shares insights from thousands of customers and his own experience as both a shooter and entrepreneur. We also cover the challenges of making gear in the U.S., why Invader Concepts has stuck to American-made production, and how Tim built the company from scratch in his garage.

Whether you’re hunting elk in grizzly country, backpacking in remote wilderness, or just want to understand your options for backcountry pistol carry, this conversation will clear up a lot of myths.
