Good for what it is - NcSTAR VISM GuardianPack Backpack with Level IIIA Soft Panels

There are 600 dollar versions of this backpack and level IIIA panel inserts. The backpack isn’t that same quality. However you’re not paying 600 here. For 150 with a coupon it’s a good deal and I can leave with the magnets not locking very tightly up top. The middle one of the three seems to do well and overall is acceptable. Judge it for what it is. I can also tell you that the inserts manufacturing date were within 3 months of the arrival to my home so the 5 year shelf life of the panels was preserved. You’re not getting an old product with a year of protection left before degradation. Overall 4/5 stars for what it is.
