5.11 is known for its extraordinarily high quality and for clothing and equipment that are optimally designed for tactical missions, hunting and the authorities.
However, the renowned US manufacturer 5.11 Tactical also has numerous accessories and pieces of hunting equipment in its range of products. Whether for storing ammunition or a long and strenuous march through the wilderness – hunters will be able to safely stow everything they need in one of these backpacks. But it is the expansion systems that make the 5.11 Tactical products unique and suitable for almost any situation.
5.11 Tactical’s Combination Systems
All bags and backpacks are equipped with a Molle or back-up system. With these practical features, they can easily be expanded with the RUSH Tier system. The back-up system makes it possible to stow bulky equipment and/or to carry additional equipment via a Velcro system.
These combination systems allow e.g. large bags to be quickly attached to smaller ones. By doing so, 5.11 Tactical has improved the carrying comfort for hunters, and allows its hunting equipment to be customized to individual requirements. Another system is the Moab system. Moab stands for Mobile Operation Attachment Bag, and allows for the rapid and smooth connection of the individual elements.
Backpacks for the Hunt from 5.11 Tactical
In its selection of backpacks, 5.11 Tactical also offers the Rapid Excursion Pack Backpack. This backpack is suitable for long hikes with overnight stays. It offers sufficient stowage space and provides room for all necessary items. The Rapid Excursion Pack is made of a robust nylon fabric, the drawstring can be operated manually, and the shoulder straps are made of a strong, aerospace-grade mesh. With a total volume of 23 liters, it offers ample space, and the dimensions (L 51 × W 35.5 × H 13) of the backpack are ideal for use on hunts. However, there is one thing to note: the nylon fabric of the backpack rustles! This may scare off animals when stalking them. 5.11 Tactical offers the Rapid Excursion Pack in the colors sandstone and double tap. Backpacks from this series are available for €24.95 in stores.
The Covert BoxPack backpack is the featherweight among the 5.11 Tactical backpacks. What characterizes this product is that it is particularly suited for urban areas, and is outfitted with a TacTec system for quick access to weapons. Furthermore, there are numerous side pockets for accessories and elastic tightening straps for additional magazines. The Covert BoxPack backpack is made of polyester, and hence stands up to all types of weather. The price of this series is €129.95.
