Eberlestock has done it again; another awesome pack with some great features. MSRP is $200.00. This pack is almost the perfect size for any situation, whether you are traveling, or just going to class or work.
Been carrying a Kelty tactical for years but its pretty tired, looking at the Redwing 30T as a replacement, but I like the Switchblads, though more $$$...
Not sure how comfortable I would be with running a glock chambered with nothing to secure it to like in other CCW packs. I guess I could always run a kydex holseter but then that's just another step to get to your side arm. Do you feel that the magnets are pretty secure?
Shonryu yes they are. I am the same as you though. I don’t want to carry anything loaded unless I know it’s pointed in a safe direction and secure. I’m sure some people do carry hot using the compartment but I usually don’t.
@@blackswampoutdoors4850 yep, a little bit more like the arc'teryx khard series. I think the switchblade has an awesome design, but I would't have much use for the folding organizer stuff in the main compartment. the little organizers on the inner sides are great, but the thing for laptop/hydration bladder should be detachable.
Alexander Leiker I couldn’t agree more. I was telling one of my friends it would make way more sense to not have those if they are going to have MOLLE webbing on it. Really though, once you get some items in the organizer it isn’t near as bad.
Nice review, Eberlestock makes some nice stuff if a bit costly. they are worth the money if you use the pack a lot. i like all of the extra compartments.
No not necessarily. I’m sure with the right ccw holster you could make it work. I have a Blackhawk holster that I have put in there with my Glock, but it makes it almost impossible to deploy the Glock in an efficient manner
Chris K don’t quote me on it because I’m not good with my fabrics but I’m pretty certain that it is. Contact eberlestock and I’m sure they will confirm it.
Bob Thurlkill great question! So it’s actually ambidextrous so there are openings on both sides of the pack. The pouch is shaped like a downwards triangle so you can put your firearm in both configurations.
Ive looked a few times since your posts and haven't seen them since. They must've stopped production on them. I love my 3 that I bought several years ago.
Nick Holman the pack is still great. The only complaint that I still have is the organizing folders inside of the pack. Everything else has held up to my standards. I packed a weeks worth of clothes into it with no problems
j p I would have to disagree with you. On the switchblade especially, I think it is a great feature that you can unzip the top with out the zipper opening up on its own.
@@blackswampoutdoors4850 I have a combat briefcase and the zipper just went on it. Have to send it in. It will be at least a 6 week process. I wont know if its covered under warranty until they get it. After comparing to my other eberlestock pack it looks like all the main zippers are designed the same.
