Reviews & Ratings for FAB Defense Masada Bulletproof Backpack/Bulletproof Vest — 5 reviews — Page 1

Purchased for mainly travel and was as expected. You loose maybe 50% of a backpacks carrying capacity but obviously that’s not why your buying. It was easy to deploy and has planets of adjustments in straps to make fit. Pricing was very reasonable and shipping was quick. Not sure if it’s normal on this product but no paperwork was included on the pack, I thought that was strange. I’d buy again.

Pros - Completely concealed. Quick and near genius pull out system. Fairly light. Cons - So far the only con would be I wish the backpack was a little bigger.

This bag is COMFORTABLE. It is well constructed, doesn't look "tactical", and has great fit and padding. The soft plates at IIIA are a great starter set and easily upgraded. The carrier has molle and attaching a pistol and spare mags doesn't ruin the deployment of the front and side plates (I have a Flux Raider attached to mine). When I consider what makes good concealed body armor, comfort and low profile are my main concerns. The Masada knocks it out of the park and has some benefits of exterior plates. It's ok as a bag. I'm able to put snacks, drinks, gloves, hearing protection, a laptop, a small first aid kit, and my notebook in it. Basically the things I think I'll need or want for a long day at work. What would be the main compartment on some boring backpack has the plates, so expect a cut in capacity. But it is still useful for carrying things and is still comfortable. Plus it's better made than most of my bags. I'm honestly tempted to buy another one.

This is an awesome Packer with top grade emergency protection yet lightweight with lots of space. An excellent and necessary component to survival in an unusual environment. This stays with me loaded for "Rare but Ready" to survive situation.
