[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 2572030, member: 5437"] LOL, that movie inspired my pack upgrade search a couple of years ago. I even order in several Badlands packs and the bino harness. All of them were returned, thank Cabelas! They just didn't quite do it. I would say the Badlands stuff is better than most out there but not on the level of the others being mentioned here. I just about went Eberlestock but my brother has his full Police sniper kit in one, rear scabbard, all of the setup. It is a tank but HEAVY and spendy. I haven't tried the Kuiu pack but their other gear is nice, just ordered a vest and gaiters from them yesterday, frame looks interesting and could go either way but no experience. Mystery ranch is good, not quite up to Kifaru but better budget. Kifaru is a whole different level. Not super lightweight but the modularity, usability, quality, etc. is whole other level. Not cheap but it's worth it! Bino Harness is Marsupial gear enclosed BTW. There are now a few others out there I would look at but that one just plain works and I would probably get it again. I am in the process of modifying their hydration pack to work with the Kifaru stuff and a hydration/kill kit/light scout (without a rifle) pack. It's basically just a camelback integrated with the bino harness. If money isn't super tight, just go Kifaru and don't bother looking back. [/QUOTE]
