After reading the good vibes on the UTG version, I think that it might be wise for me to get one and out fit it for the wife. On second thought, maybe a third one out fitted for the second vehicle too. Wait, another one for my brother as a Christmas gift especially since he is moving back to Oklahoma in the spring--got a walk about partner in the near future.

I think I will have to jump in as well. I sold my jumbo for a collossus. But I'm not crazy about the way the collusus rides, and with the top being a zipper shut, long odd shaped objects have no hope of fitting in.

I haven't got mine loaded up yet, but have taken it on a couple of walkabouts with a small load. I like the way you can put a full sized pistol inside the concealment compartment.

I've been using mine quite a bit and it's a very good deal for the cash. I also realized that I like this design much better than the Maxpedition Colossus, which I ended up getting rid of because I like this one that much more. The Leapers one rides better, especially with the integrated water bottle holder. I had mine loaded with a 28 Ounce SS bottle, G27 w/ spare mag, flashlight, SAK, GPS and a few other odds and ends and it was noticeably less cumbersome than the Colossus packed with a similar load.
I also like the fact that the material is not as rigid as the Maxpedition. The Max is built like a tank, but this one just feels more comfortable all around....with out sacrificing quality.
I may eventually pick up another one for the g/f

On my Max I like carrying the S5, Muk, or a knife that size. I just use the Tek Lok laced through the strap.

I bought this thing at Knob Creek that looks nearly identical to the maxpedition but it only cost $30. The straps are not as plush, but otherwise looks the same. I made it my new "go bag". I can not find a makers name on it anywhere. I would like to get some more stuff from them.

I love maxpedition gear, but it's just so expensive.

Nice set up Andy! I like how you attached the Tek to the Molle straps.
