Cyberrifles's Review of 5.11 Tactical Covrt 18 Backpack
I had one before in green so it would not look military but my wife objected saying it looked military. This time I picked Ice because black looks "SWAT" or military. The Ice looks great, reflects light and I hope easy to clean. The bag is tough and comfortable to wear. On the side are two water bottle pockets which military type packs do not. The main area takes my ballistic panel and the pocket on tops takes my POLICE patch like in the video. The shoulder straps are heavily padded and the back pad has a strip down the center for air circulation. There is the CCW area for my pistol and the top has a place for my retired badge. For travel it will do everything I want and need. However, the CCW area has a problem. The velcro is in the center of the CCW area and when I put my pistol holster there, the bag sags in the middle. I feel the area needs the velcro down near the bottom of the pouch so the grip of the pistol touches the bottom and keeps the area from sagging. I want to get a large hard panel with velcro to support the holster better.
Pros:
Covert and Comfortable.
Cons:
CCW area needs a larger velcro area.
Best Used for:
Everyday carry and travel.
Would Recommend:
Yes
