    Hauling meat with a DT1

    I just put the meat in the pack and compress it. Put it mid pack and don't let it settle to the bottom of pack.

    holster options for Kifaru frame

    I agree but disagree. The paddle is above the trigger. And when I draw no matter what holster I use my trigger finger is in the exact same place as the paddle which is above the trigger. The trigger finger runs down the holster as I draw my weapon. Been using one for years and have never came...
