The thing I like about the Eberlstock is the ability to remove the side pockets and either carry it lighter/slimmer or stick the whole thing in a Pelican if needed.

If you use the side pockets, get the Tac-Ops.

The Tac Ops rocks like there's no tomorrow. It's built like a tank, roomy, balances well, and holds everything you would need.

It's a fantastic bag.

Will the Tac Ops fit in to a standard 53" airline acceptable rolling hard case?

I have several top quality drag bags and I think Tac Ops is the best one out there.

If you are thinking of loading the tac ops bag with all your gear and then placing it in a hard case I doubt it will fit inside. it will be too fat. The Tac Ops bag will hold an enormous amount of gear with all the inside and outside pockets.

Possibly it would fit if it is empty and folded flat and you remove most of the foam liners that your hard case will have.
I also use a factory AI hard case which will not fit a drag bag inside. I pack the drag bag in an extra parachute duffel type bag that I check.

The TacOps bags are very well thought out. I have a few of them and they have the perfect organizational set up. You can throw it in a Pelican or Starlight case so long as the foam is pulled out.
