Medium Molle Assault Pack USMC Hiking Backpack Tan

Medium Molle Assault Pack USMC Hiking Backpack TanThis pack is very solid! In length and width, it is about the same size as the USMC Assault Pack. It has MOLLE's PALS webbing all over the pack so I can strap on any attachments that use MOLLE. There are three zipper compartments; the main one, the one on the front, and a smaller pouch at the very top. Inside the main compartment, there is a spot to hold a Camel Bak bladder. The strap buckles themselves are pretty rugged. I tried bending one of the ends on the male buckle and it feels very solid. The straps also come with the Velcro attachment to secure the extra strap when you roll it up (so you don't need tape to wrap them). Not sure how the zipper slider and zipper teeth will hold up. As a Marine, we are always in a hurry and tend to use the zipper rather harshly. I did a few quick zips and it feels pretty solid. Also, the whole pack is lined with double stitching. The actual material for the backpack is awesome! The coyote color is also very tactical looking. As far as the quality of materials compared to the USMC Assault Pack, I give it maybe 1 out of 10 stars lower in quality. This pack is very solid.

Remember that this pack is not a main pack. It is the size of a regular day pack, or comparable to the USMC Assault Pack.

I give this product a 9/10 and not 10/10 only because I am comparing it to the USMC Assault Pack the quality of the materials don't seem as strong and for Marines, rugged quality that can sustain a beating is essential. None-the-less, this is still a very solid pack and would bring on deployment!
