    I have a gen 2 duplex so dont have the multiple tab loops to work with. You could try a setup similar to hill people gear though and it should give you better access. At least if it is the same still as years ago. They had a large flap that hangs down between the lifters with a tab loop on...

    Time for a new kifaru homespun packbag.

    Also, i will eventually split some triglides to replace some of the plastic hardware with sewn off ends and some velcro strap minders to clean up the look more and keep it more orderly. I just wanted to toss something on there for now to give you a feel for a quasi-finished product...

    Time for a new kifaru homespun packbag.

    Okay, here it is! I still need to properly finish off my upper zipper stops, fab up a meat shelf and do a removable lid for when using the overload, but just didn't get to it tonight. I will knock them out over the next few days. I went with double layers of cordura on the front below the...

    Yeah, this was supposed to be foliage but the lot color was really off or they sent me the wrong one. Got too good of a deal on it to send it back though. I think it looks good though.

    Big sky chinook

    Just replied to your PM, i like mine quite a bit so far in limited use. I went back and forth on the 1.5 and the 2 man for a while. Ended up with the 2 man and dont regret that as I sometime take one of my kids. Kind of suprised more people dont have them as the quality is there and weight is...
