That's the XTL stuffed and empty.

Is the XTL lid the same for the Tactical and Hunting packs? Or is one made out of 1000D and the other is 500D

 

[Aron Snyder]

You're loosing me buddy...

That's a green hunting XTL made of 500D.

Aron and others:

How does the T2 do with rifle packing? Can the side sleeves work like a gun scabbard? This thing looks better all the time.

My question might have got lost in the thread. Repost.

 

[Backpack Hunter]

I have used the T2 with Kifaru's Gun Bearer and it rode well. I own the T1 with the Gun Bearer and it works well too. I never thought to try the sleeves as a scabbard.

You answered my question. I was just wondering if the XTL lid for the military packs are made out of 1000D?

 

[Matt Cashell]

Thanks, BH!

 

[Aron Snyder]

The sleeve will work, but the gun bearer or Grab It works best.

Ask Luke about the Gun Bearer, he's got way more use with a rifle than I do.

 

[Matt Cashell]

Thanks, I like the looks of the grab-it a little better, I think.

Those photos aren't the best, but that's a 300WinMag in a Grab It.

 

[pyroducksx3]

was wondering what the difference is in the lid options. I've gone through the photos their website and I just cant figure it out. Seems like the longhunter and xtl are the same lid just with pockets? Seems steep for and extra 100$ if thats the difference

 

[Aron Snyder]

The difference is in the labor of sewing the lid, not the material, so that's where the price increase is going.

 

[Ozz08]

Aron, what are those pockets called that are attached to the sides of the pack in the pics above?

 

[Gman]

Where the gun bearer really shines is quick access to your rifle. If you're rolling Sherpa style or don't plan on using your rifle I've used the grab it and it's great. But if you're scrambling and hunting you'll want te gun bearer.

 

[Aron Snyder]

Those are hip belt pockets.

That photo has

T2
XTL Lid

2 medium hip belt pockets on pack

2 small hip belt pocket on the actual belt

Grab It

2 lashing straps

Thanks Lawnboi! I am just north of Eau Claire. Chippewa Falls. My T1 is scheduled for March 13, and my T3 April 9th....can't wait!

Pack came last night at 9:00. All I can say is wow... I have to work tonight so I will try and get some miles on it tonight and get some pics posted. Materials and fit are awesome. This pack weighs nothing too! I am most impressed with the hip belt/Lumbar pad and suspension. Nothing on this pack is an after thought. Everything works together and the accessories just feel like they are sewn on to the pack when attached.
