A couple notes on this pack that might help someone out.I replaced the stock bladder with a Source 3L bladder. Source Outdoors WXP SQC QMT Storm Valve-IRR Cover (Coyote, 3-Litres ) It fits fine and is much more durable. There are a two small Velcro tabs at the top on each side inside the bladder carrier. They are just long enough to reach the hole in the center of the Source bladder to secure it, use both to keep it from shifting to the side. The metal loop on the sides of each strap is not large enough for the source hose to feed through to secure it, I used one of the elastic loops instead. These metal rings can be rotated so the flat side is out and they are large enough for the clip on most speaker/mics.
The Hydration hose exits the bladder section via a hole at the top of each strap. The hole only goes into the bladder carrier, not the main part of the pack. I wanted to keep a small radio in the main compartment and run the speaker/mic out the other strap to keep the radio better protected from the elements. This won't work.
All the zippers worked well and did not bind anywhere.
The molle points on the front seem to be spaced correctly, at least all my other Condor, 5.11, and Maxpedition pouches lined up. There are no molle points on the bottom to tie a tarp to. There's plenty of room on the side pockets for molle as well but they didn't put it there either.
There is a small pouch on the inside back of the main compartment that comes up about half way.
The straps are just long enough for me, but it's close. I'm 5'11 and 205 and wear 40x30 pants. There is enough strap for the chest strap to close and have enough slack to be useful. I'd like the shoulder straps a couple inches longer for use with a heavier Carhartt coat in the winter. The waist strap does interfere with IBW carry. Yeah, I know it's not the products fault I need to loose weight, just more of a comment for those that are my size. Strap length was going to be the deciding factor if I kept this or not. I've bought a couple other bags in the past that had straps that were too short and couldn't be changed out.
I'll be ordering an AR500 Armor Carbon Nanotube Soft Armor IIIA for backpacks. It measures 11x14 and should fit the back of the main compartment. It may have to wrap around the inside a small amount, not sure yet. I'll post updates after it arrives as to if this pack holds it well.
The main purpose of this pack for me is part of a get home kit. It holds essentials for a 30-50 mile hike back and a few tools. Combined with the Condor EDC bag Condor Edc Bag I good way to carry a variety of things without getting too heavy.
