I’ve had many of Peter’s packs, mainly for elk hunting. I carry concealed and have to deal with different daily needs. I’ve had this system employed for a couple months now and I can tell you, I’m going to use it till I wear the bottom out. It’s perfect. Carries my computer and work needs, extra jacket and gloves, first aid kit, and most of my other daily needs. But the important part is the concealed carry area is very easy to access and with about a month of training, I can get to it and and be on target in seconds. I recommend going to a range after a week or two of unloaded draws then take it to the range and practice. Great job E. I wouldn’t change a thing. The bladder system is rock solid and even with the pack loaded, you can still draw.
the best
I have had camel backs and Platapus hydration packs which leaked and a pain to clean. Nelgene bottles were okay but bulky and weight either off center or difficult to reach. These are easy to clean, quick detach and add ons like quick hose, bottle or facet filler allow refill without removing from pack. Tiny attachment that pops on where mouth piece detaches. Well worth the money.
Quality product.
I emailed when my bladder was missing a cap, and was told that they didn’t get missing parts and I had to buy another. Not what I was expecting from Eberlestock with the higher prices usually meaning top notch service. Once I got a complete unit it was a good product.
Good water bladder
Perfect size and holds what you will need for a day out.
