Gear Bags

[Bourneshooter]

I'm torn on a gear bag purchase at the moment. I currently have a Eagle M4 SIGMA monstrosity, which will fit a bunch of gear, is just to big/heavy when loaded for what I need (moving between house and patrol cars).

I was looking at a smaller bag but still Large in over all size to hold gear.

The RE Factor ASO and the Patagonia Black Whole 120L bags are what I'm currently looking at.

I need to pack the following:

• Crye Airframe
• Crye JPC w/ Hydro pouch
• Black Turtle or SWAT heavy vest with Hydro/Gas Mask
• First Spear ECP assault pack
• Sustainment Gear (extra uniform, 3 MRE's, etc)
• misc odds and ends
• Extra Gas Mask Filters
• Binoculars

Anyone other bags I should look at? Anyone with the above bags see if the size of stuff would fit?

This would cover your armor and brain bucket then you could put the rest in a sort of XL sustainment pack that would give you the ability to take all your shit on the move if need be...

I run a Tactical Tailor bag -- unsure of name - but it holds the following
TC2002 Gunfighter (I'm old)
BFG Plate Minus
ANVIS-6 (in cary case)
Battle Belt
Extra uniforms, some water and food
batteries - some extra ammo
LRF - Binos and Spotting Scope with Badger SLICK mount

It's small enough to carry places - but generally resides in the back of my Durango


I have a Khard 30 for "local sustainment" for longer term stuff I have a Kifaru EMR that I can use for multiday stuff.

I use this bag for all my armor and helmet, utilities, and boots. They give a discount to mil/LE.
Re Factor Tactical Enhanced Kit Bag. The ASO bag is also good (I have 3!) but can be a little trickier to pack. One for work, one for range, and one for travel.

I had the SKD bag before but it was hard to get to stuff at the bottom without pulling everything out. I did like the padded bottom to protect my plates.

I have the RE Factor ASO bag, and it is - without a doubt - my favorite bag. Mine's currently my range bag, but I've considered picking up another for other stuff.

I am continually surprised by the quality of construction and attention to detail.

I have been looking for a new bag the last few weeks but just have not been able to narrow it down. The more I look at t I think the RE ASO will fill that need. Thanks for all the info guys!

I have one of these - http://lbtinc.com/bags-backpacks-packs/bags/load-out-bags/enhanced-warfighter-load-out-bag-c.html

they are on sale once in a while, I got one for like $50.

I can fit 2 full size men inside it, flown for the last two years with one and it pretty much takes everything I need and still keeps working.

ASO bag is good. I've been using one as my daily range/carry on/gym/3-4 day bag while flying around teaching. Well built, lots of room in the right places, not much that wasn't thought out or without purpose.
