Why are drag bags called drag bags?

 

Please don't say it is because you drag them behind you :-)

Thats exactly why, a cord is attached to the bag and as you slowly crawl into your firing position the bag is dragged behind you, obviously this is its military application and not needed for the range

Ok then, if I can't say that they were originally designed for snipers who had to gradually, inch by inch, crawl into position, keeping as low as possible and needing to take their rifle and ancillary equipment to their shooting position without getting seen or shot then I will say they are for transporting your wig, high heels, spangly dress and makeup when you go out.

 

Take your pick

Ah, right ok I understand the military aspect of that.

I just saw a gun bag for sale and it was described as a drag bag and it seemed a daft term for it.

Generic term for that type of bag, a bit like "Hoover" for any vacuum cleaner.
