So the bag for my DT2 should be here today and I feel like I've spent since march waiting for one thing or another to be shipped to me by Kifaru...I kind of don't feel whole if I'm not waiting anxiously for something from them. So I'm contemplating my next, much cheaper, purchase from Kifaru. My choices are pullouts, belt pouches, or a gun bearer.

Belt pouches-seems like quite a few people have two mediums? It seems like this would be a good way to go. I would go small, but don't want to get them and then decide I need more room, but I'm not sure how much I would actually put in them. But after I get them and start experimenting, I'm worried that I'll come up with a configuration that needs more space then a small, but at the same time, a small may prevent the GIF from messing with me too much.

Pull-outs-same thing here. Size. The set of 4 seems to be a good option, but they are 4 different sizes. If I were to get say 4 mediums or make my own set of 4 of various sizes, doubling up on one or more sizes instead of one of each, it would only be a few dollars more. Can anyone give me an idea of what they fit into some of the various sizes so I have an idea of which route to go. Or even a recommendation.

Gun bearer-pretty self explanatory. My only question is if the belt pouches interfere with the gun bearer.
 
I have two medium belt pouches. I attached them to the webbing on my main bag, though, and not on the belt. If they were full and atached to the belt, i would be annoyed by having my hands ( or whatever i was carrying such as a bow) bumping into them all day. When you get your pack today, I would say the mediums hold as much as the individual pockets on the back of your bag, maybe a little more.
 
X2. The medium pouches are best suited for the bag and the small pouches are best suited for the belt. I have both. I went with the camo medium pouches for the bag and the small ku pouches for the belt with the idea that the weatherproof ku material would help protect electronics. I keep my gps, rangefinder and gloves in one small belt pouch and an small water bottle in the other.
