EXO K4 Now or Wait for the EXO K4X

Got it ordered! I'm really excited as I've been wanting/needing a k4x for a good while now to better haul meat comfortably. Hopefully I dont suck this year and get to put meat in it haha. Thanks, Mark.
 
@Mark at EXO If the 25" frame is too long following testing, I assume the stays could be cut down like the K4? Based on an above post about a 3rd party gunbearer ripping the molle, what is the weight limit on hip for that? I'm not planning to put 16lbs there, but I often like to hold my bow with molle off a clip, etc. Typical bow weight (no stabilizer for me or lots of junk). Thanks!
 
I am wondering if some type of separate forum or thread, or maybe email group, can be set up for the users to discuss their experiences in one place and also to get thoughts from each other to help with evaluation.

I already have some questions on parts of the accessories kit I want to ask, but dont want to bug the exo guys.
 
Nice to see release 2, inc bino bra, make it out. Sadly shipping was $240US to my country so I think I'll sit this one out 😆
Feel free to email us ([email protected]) with your shipping address, and we'll double-check options and rates. Sometimes the cart will show miscalculations. That said, some international shipping is crazy expensive, and we do not set those rates, nor do we mark them up to make money on shipping.

We're going to be launching an "official" K4x thread pretty soon. A place for us to share more official updates, K4x testers to share experiences, ask questions, etc.

It is Australia and FedEx is unkind to my destination.
 
Ordered the K4X and Accessory bundle. Look forward to trying it out and comparing it to my current packs! Hopefully it’s here in time for our Sept sheep hunt. No sweat if not, lots of hunting planned for after that trip. 😁

Didn’t see a reply to this yet?
 
Since it got some traction, I’d like to clarify, my issue was user error - the side molle panel didn’t rip, some stitching gave way in the upper corner. That was with a lot of hiking with a 16+ lb rifle in the 12th two day match depending on what was designed to hold a belt pouch and its contents. Well over 1000% over design intent. And, it could continue to function fine as intended, it didn’t rip off by any means. A hunting weight rifle would never have even started to cause an issue. I remember hearing stitching rip and didn’t know what it was, and proceeded to not change my tactics for a day and half to completion. It was only when I got home that I discovered the damage.

Looking back it’s pretty wild that it did as well as it did, and it never reached critical failure even after the stitching gave and I continued to abuse it.

Jake @ Exo was way beyond accommodating and helped me to a fix the issue in an extremely faster and more economical way than I expected. I told him in the first comm that it was my fault and my fault alone and he went above and beyond to solve the issue and keep my pack with me to continue training for the fall.

TLDR; Exo rocks, as we all know!
 
I know this is probably just a me problem, but I'm going to have to order the rifle carrier and figure out how to die it black or grey.
