[QUOTE="Willys46, post: 175130, member: 6536"] [b]Eberlestock[/b] I could not find the model number that I have. I purchased it 3 years ago. It is the top loading like the Gunslinger. It has been a good pack but I would not buy it again if I had the choice. Good Qualities-- Holds a lot of gear, Quality product, held up over rugged hunts. Things I do not like Never can get the pack to fit comfortably. Its not adjustable for a longer torso and the waste strap hits way to high off the hips. The large compartment is hard to find anything and all the weight goes right to the bottom. Longer barreled guns stick up way to high over your head. Not enough compartments for little things. Without a external or internal cage it would not be fun to pack out an animal. This has just been my opinion and think if I could adjust the belt strap to hit on the hips it would make it more comfortable. Just a personal thing. The pack I am looking at to replace it is the The Ultimate Hard Core Hunt Pack form Adventure Outfitters. [url=http://www.adventureoutfittersinc.com/#]Janssens Adventure Outfitters[/url] They are more expensive but have a lot of the features that a long range hunter would like. Compartments for a spotting scope and tripod. External frame that is lightweight and flexible. Completely adjustable for different height people. Give Kip a call. Nice guy and will give you the straight scoop. FYI I have no dog in the fight but found there product to be superior. Willys [/QUOTE]
