[QUOTE="Nvhunter, post: 213531, member: 11885"] [b]Kiafru vs. Elbrestock?[/b] Jmden, I had not seen the gunbearer on the kaifru. I viewed it on the web and it looks like a good design. If I still lived in the rolling hills of Texas or on the East Coast I could definatelly use that setup. The Eberlestock scabbard is integral to the pack. Being part of the pack it does not add weight as other accessory scabbards may do. I tend to avoid the "which product is better" discussions. Bottom line - we all have different needs. For myself, I assend and decend vertical face cliffs at the worst, and hike through dense mountain mohogany stands at best. Having my rifle (Voere 2165 30.06 pre-1980) protected on my back in the pack is my best option. My hunting style does not require rifle at hand. I prefer the stalk with a shooter spotter team. Besides, it only takes me about 8 seconds to pull, shoulder, sight and fire from scabbard to shot. I do not think any pack is the best. I just know which one is best for me. You may take pride in shooting faster than I do. Myself, I am not in competition with any other hunter. My adversary is the game. [/QUOTE]
