Backpack - 34L Molle Backpack - Military Army Style 1 to 2 Day Assault Pack Rucksack Survival Bag

I've only had this backpack for a short time, however I already love it!!!The build quality on it seems really tough and well-built. Having had a number of heavy duty backpacks, i feel this one is going to last - and I really put my packs through torture. But the stitching, material thickness, the plastic/poly lining all seem awesomely built on this one...and quite lightweight for the load capacity...so, you're getting a decent pack for a pretty low price!The size of the overall backpack is perfect for my needs. I needed an everyday pack for the office to fit my laptop, and myriad other items, without being too bulky. The "reduction" straps allow for squeezing the pack too; so if you aren't carrying too many items in it, it won't feel like you're walking around the street or office with a pack ready to climb mount Everest. Even though the specs state it could fit up to a 13" laptops, my 14" laptop fits perfectly. (Other reviewers noted that the backpack is slightly bigger than expected to fit more than a 13" laptop.) I haven't added any MOLLE-type attachments yet, but will do so. However the loops seem - again - well built and plenty sturdy.As far as customer support - being that I always put my packs through the ringer and I had very specific questions - I emailed them, and their president replied promptly and perfectly answered my questions. Great customer support, especially if you have the president fielding questions!!Ok, so build was great, size was great, support was awesome, price was perfect...so you might be asking if there was anything less than ideal...I won't call it a negative, but there was one unexpected: the color of the backpack. I had ordered the tan/khaki (some vendors call it "coyote brown") backpack. I usually get olive drab or black packs, but wanted to try something different this time regarding color; so went for the tan color. Well, to be honest, the pack's color is not what I would call a true tan...its almost an even mix of olive drab and tan...If you've ever seen the traditional green color that the Israeli army uses for their military uniforms, then add equal amount of tan to that, then that's the color of the bag. I don't know if this was a defect in color dye, or that was the intended tan for this vendor (and not a mistake)...But I love it!!! I personally don't see this as a problem; I see it more as happy surprise...I absolutely love this color! However, I only mention this because other buyers might be more picky about the color of their packs. i love this color enough to not remove any stars from the review of this product; I give this product a full 5 stars! If this is representative of Orca Tactical's products, then I would purchase another product from them without a doubt.

I spent weeks looking for the best tactical backpack to bring on week long trips, that would also allow me to circumvent additional flight "fees". Those being, carry on costs. It's a good size where it can work under the seat (mind you, that depends how you pack!).The far back compartment i use for clothing, with the addition of packing cubes. I'm able to fit 4 t-shirts, a pair of shorts, workout shorts, socks and underwear all in the same packing cube. There is still wiggle room on additional items, depending how you pack. Within this same compartment, there is a small mesh holder where i keep my tablet.Within the next compartment, i keep my toiletries bag, and my electronics (which are in another packing cube.) . The issue i get at this point is the volume of the bag becomes large and thus "pushes the bag out more". This isn't a fault to the bag, rather, an observation on size when adding to it. This is where you can get in the "red zone" as far as volume/size to fit under your seat at that reduced price.There are two front facing pockets. The bottom is pretty large and i hold items I want to get to fast. The top, i usually keep food/snacks. There is also a zipper on the inside (your back) where i believe you can hold a water pouch. though i'm not sure it's intended for that? Myself, i kept my documents in there. It's a deep pocket, that keeps items flat. Perfect for quick retrieval too.Myself, with various airlines, i was still able to keep the appearance of a backpack and still only pay for under the seat costs (ie. free). There was one occasion where i thought i might run into an issue, so to avoid any troubles i removed a few of my electronics and held them as i entered the flight, as to reduce the load appearance. Factors to really consider, is airlines. How much wiggle room do you have to keep the appearance of a backpack vs size.With this, i was able to travel to DC, NYC, Cleveland with no added costs. But, i want to stress that this is also based on my experience. I can't say you'll pack the same way i do. What i can say, is that my situation allowed me to reduce travel costs due to this bag.As far as structure, i left this bag at various holding centers in NYC and DC. The kind where you pay $5.99 at a local business who then store your bag in their shop. normally behind closed doors. The key part, is the service insures your items up-to 100k. So, i had major peace of mind when leaving them in places like NYC and DC.I was able to make metal attachments to the zippers, which allowed me to attach more secured locks. This gave me the piece of mind that they couldn't just cut the mesh zipper cord to get around any type of lock (as you cant really lock through the zipper holes). But, at the end of the day if someone wanted to get in they could .. but, at-least they couldn't peak into it without really destroying the bag!Through a week of traveling in NYC/DC, going from airbnb to airbnb, walking around in times square and central park .. as well as on the various train/subway rides up and down Manhattan - i never broke one buckle, or tore one piece of anything. Everything has stayed intact, fully. I was even able to pack an additional smaller "over the shoulder" bag on my travels when i wanted to venture away from this pack.So, in the end, I'm glad i found this bag as it was perfect for my travel needs.

I did weeks of research looking for a good 30L tactical backpack to replace my old sling pack. I needed a pack for halling my required items when I go out on the trails with my RC trail/crawler rigs. I needed a smaller pack with molle and good storage capacity. so this is what I went with.I have only had it for a week and have not hit the trails with it yet, but here are my first impressions of it; The size of the overall backpack is perfect for my needs. I added 5 additioanl molle pouches that will provide me the space needed for all my support items. as you can see from the picture i went with the olive drab and added orange molle pouches. it look perfect. it will allow others to see me from a far. the back pocked is hudge and can hold a good change of close if needed. the front is also a good size and will fit all may action camera items and also holds two action camera gimbles no problem. the small upper pouch is good for you keys and phone or wallet and the fron lower pocket will hold small tools and knives or anyother trail items you need.As well as quality fabric, MOLLE webbing, and pretty good zippers. All zips are double zippers. The hip belt webbing is thick enough that even without padding it is pretty comfortable to wear. i did add my own paracord ties zipper pulls ans it only comes with a end tied paracord pull that will no doit for me.There is also a pouch at the back for a small laptop 13" or hydration bottle. maybe a 1.5l would be best. it does have velcro staps to hold up the bladder.Sewing of the seams looks to be excelelnt all straps are folded over and sewn in. Side straps allow you to since the pack tight. Molle material looks to be stron and is properly lined up for easy molle addition.Overall it is exactly the sizre i was looking for. Time will tell how it holds up but I see it lasting me for many years. the sling pack was 20L and also bought off Amazon and it was alot cheaper made and price but held up to my abuse for 3 years. I see this Orca lasting a lot longer then that.

Excellent product. Came just as advertised. Delivery was fast also. Size is perfect. Quality is top notch and I expect I'll have many years of good use out of this pack.

It fits all that I need. Great quality and an even better costumer service.
