Exo Mountain K4?

[svivian]

Not sure how you know what issues I have with the pack the TT would solve? The TT is definitely not what I’m looking for.

equally hard to recommend if you dont mention the parts you dont like

Anyone use other brand bags on the K4 frame? I like the frame. There are some extremely annoying parts to the bags though.

Other brands…. Not looking for a bag recommendation.

The nerve of some people. He's obviously either illiterate or didn't bother to read the issues you clearly listed.

I didn’t list the annoyances which is why I responded with what I did. Somehow he knows the TT will fix them though?

This is where RS is going downhill. Without posters actually knowing the full story they recommend stuff their hero recommends. A lot of times without actually using it themselves. Or they have used that one item but not the other 7 competing items. It’s always “the best” though since they use it or their hero uses it.

Have you tried using a 223?

I actually don’t disagree with you, advice without experience to back it up is really frustrating. That said, I bought a K4-5000 shortly after release following a horrible packout using a MR pack that failed. I loved the K4 but the numerous straps and buckles along with near-useless side pockets really frustrated me when I took the K4 hunting. Those two complaints are a common theme in this thread when people complain about the K4 bags, so I (wrongly) assumed this was your gripe as well.

I’ve been using the S2H teratorn since late spring and got one of the demo bags to provide feedback. Within a few days of using it to ruck and practice shooting it was clear that it fixed almost every complaint I had about the original K4 bag.

As for wanting another brand of bag, I replied to that ask saying it likely wouldn’t work because before the release of the teratorn I looked extensively for the same thing to no avail. There are a few guys that have tried to retrofit a K3 bag or a kifaru bag to the K4 but it seems like a difficult task.

I hope you find a good solution to whatever your issues may be and if you can look past your concerns about who developed and brought the teratorn to market, you may find it’s a great alternative.
