    Default Recommendations for a non tactical range bag?

    I'm looking to replace my very tired high school book bag with a real purpose built range bag.

    I'm tired of having things digging into my back through the bag and the zippers are starting to give me trouble.

    I'd like it to have 2 straps like a book bag. So no duffle bag or courier style bags.

    Most importantly, it cannot look tactical. No Camo. No molle loops. Nothing that screams "guns inside!"

    I'd like to keep the price low, but quality isn't cheap. Even a decent school book bag is at least 50$. So let's say 200$ is the price limit.

    Ideally, it should be able to fit at least 2 handguns, spare magazines, maybe 200 rounds of center-fire handgun ammo, speedloaders, target pasters, and a few small tools.

    Have a look at Dillon Precision's range bag.

    Edit: Never mind it seems that they no longer offer their range bag

    I only saw single strap bags.

    Well yes. But with pouches and such to hold firearms and magazines.

    I can't be the only person who has ever wanted to go to the range and not look like a commando.

    So far the closest thing to what i want are:

    I've been using a tennis racquet bag for the last half-dozen years. AR (upper & lower separated) fits on one side. KSG fits on the other. Other compartments hold tools, ammo, whatever else I decide to stuff in there.

    Look at laptop bags/backpacks too. I found them to be too much money, but my budget was pretty low.

    I found this tool bag on clearance. (just to throw out ideas)

    That bag looks alright. I didn't realize tool companies made back packs.
