I recently organised a small group buy for these over on BB and i said i would do one here as well but again I'd rather it wasn't too big so I'm checking for interest and if there is any i will organise a small group buy of say 20 bags.

It's basically a copy of the Maxpedition PROTEUS™ VERSIPACK, i can't say how good a copy it is because i don't have a Maxpedition to compare it to but it's a similar size and layout.

You have the main compartment which has a small mesh pocket inside, front compartment which has 3 smaller pockets inside and the 2 end compartments.

Top you have a grab handle which is attached to 2 compression straps.

The back has various means of attaching the pack to other packs, belts, webbing systems and also holds a 2" wide webbing strap.

The strap simply pulls out and is used as a belt

Or remove it and attach it to the loops at the top for shoulder carry

It attaches quickly with Velcro and press stud at each end and has a side lock release buckle and 3 bar slider to quickly adjust the length.

Along the front and at each end has a strip of the PALS (Pouch Attachment Ladder System) webbing for adding accessories.

The main compartment actually holds a surprising amount of kit,

Or a jetboil stove and still room for a few sandwiches.

Front compartment again holds a surprising amount of kit.

As do the 2 end compartments.

Size approx.
Main: 9" x 6" x 3"
Front: 8" x 5" x 1.5"
2 x Side (each): 6" x 3" x 2"

Weight approx 540g

One thing i don't like is the zipper pulls rattle, they rattle a lot so on my own bag i removed them.
5 minutes had the zip pulls replaced with paracord and it's much quieter.

I don't carry an EOTW bag or an urban survival pack but im using this as a small range bag just to hold some ammo, ear defenders and glasses or a wee bag for fishing tackle when i want to travel light.
I also have a green one that i attached to the belt of my Sabre 45 to keep small items handy.

The wee bag punches way above it's weight and you can cram a surprising amount in there.

Cost including UK carriage and Pay Pal is £18.92 per bag

Choice of 3 colours, black, green or brown.
If anyone is interested please add your name and colour choice below.

I have been messed around with group buys before on this forum so only post in the thread if you intend to and are financially able to complete a purchase :rolleyes:
 
I tried a green one on the strap of my Sabre 45, it's a good colour match and it keeps wee items close to hand.
