At SHOT Show 2026 my friends at 5.11 Tactical showed off their newest backpack, the LVC12. LV stands for “Low Visibility,” and the 12 stands for 12-hour use. This backpack looks like a generic consumer backpack, hiding its tactical roots and features.
This backpack offers an ambidextrous pass-through CCW chamber with a strap, and hook-and-loop panels. Behind its generous 270º zippered main chamber, is a padded pocket that can fit 16″ laptop or a large SAPI plate.
