I am looking into a new pack. Ive been using a USMC FILBE Assault pack for a few years. It has about 2300 cu/in of storage.
Im looking to improve in a few areas.
1) Having the ability to carry a rifle on my back.
2) Back load, not loaded from the top.
3) MOLLE attachment points.
4) Ability to carry moderately heavy loads comfortably.
With these thoughts I initially looked at the X3 lo drag. Then I thought about building up a G1 Little Brother w/ an A4SS scabbard. Pack is advertised to similar in size to the Assault Pack. The G1 would allow for the scabbard to be removed if not needed. The pack appears to keep everything easily accessible as it is loaded similar to a suit case. I also like the MOLLE attachments and the pouches on the side. Looks like they would support a tripod really well.
Anyone have experience with this pack or a similar setup?
