[QUOTE="Brown Dog, post: 126343, member: 1622"] [b]Re: Final Impressions: Eberlestock Gunslinger[/b] Hi Ward, All well here! [ QUOTE ] had to adjust the pack to ride a bit lower, and then tighten up the top and side draw straps to get it to feel right. [/ QUOTE ] ....but presumably, even with that adjustment, the belt won't bear weight? I guess Su37 maybe right [ QUOTE ] like shoes some just dont fit. [/ QUOTE ] but I'm average height and build ...and never (in a lifetime of rucksac use (must caveat that to exclude the 'large pack' and GS bergen I was issued (too many) years ago whilst at Sandhurst!) had a problem with a rucksac before. All, I'm not trying to launch a propaganda offensive against the pack; if you read my initial impressions, they leant towards 'favourable' (albeit, noting that it didn't appear to be of the soldier-proof build quality that Eberlestock's hype infers [over body armour the yoke discomfort would not be apparent, nor, over webbing, would the nugatory nature of the belt; but I cannot believe that the pack is robust enough to last a year or more's constant use.]), but I have to say, I'm extremely disappointed with the pack; for me it will be an expensive pack for range use only (an application at which, with its half million pockets, straps and zips it's very good!). ...those of you who are getting more than that; I wish I was [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]! My motivation? I've learnt masses from other people on this site; I hope I can help someone else by sharing (what I consider to be) my error.... [b]caveat emptor![/b] [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Lovdasnow [ QUOTE ] why do people black their faces out? people post their pics all the time online, so why is it some don't [/ QUOTE ] Apologies; I'm world-wide web shy [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
