Here are the first pics and impressions of the Eberlestock Dragonfly. better more pictures to come.

I picked this up in mossy oak brush , and man it seams to blend in with about any thing. i was kinda worried about using a fleece material , but i have to say i like it more and more, i have found 1050d nylon is a bit over kill for a pack. this stuff is quiet and fairly grippy and soft but doesnt seam to pick any thing up. the interior is a lighter color nylon which aids finding gear.

This slips in and out of the bottom of the pack... its the barrel protector for the sleeve ... and fits up to a shot gun for me. or a couple machetes or an ax...

This is the spikes super duffle, it zips in to the same place the panel does over the mesh, i believe this set up totaly 7900cu in with should strap this duffle is quiet capable of being a 3 day business trip sized bag.

Orange zip in panel , 2 sided one orange one same camo. this reinforces the mesh pannel that folds out. and gives a little signal group too. easy to zip in and out and light.

Overall - spendy, but very very happy with it. it fills the pack i really need thats adjustable for my normal stuff. its rough and tumble . and i cant wait to get into the feild. payson outfitters worked with me very well and i highly recomend then for any of there packs they carry. (also a hair cheaper then msrp)

any thoughts? show off more stuff? im going to try and get outside but i took these while i was stuck in the snow. so any questions any thing else you would like to see?
