Slumberjack Carbine 2500 Backpack

I liked the snake skin design, different and cool. The Slumberjack Carbine 2500 bag is a little longer then the tactical Ghost backpacks and the Camelbak Motherlode and since I am 6 ft 4 in I was looking for a bag that would fit my body better. The Carbine still could use a couple more inches in height to fit perfectly on the hips. The quality of the bag is still fine, but it isn't the same as the tactical bags in quality. The padding is a little cheaper then a tactical bag, but still nice. As a hunting bag it would work just fine. There are pros and cons to each bag. The strap that fits across the chest and hooks to the straps fit my build the best. The straps were comfortable, but wish the padding went a little further down the strap for my size. But this bag fit my buiId best so far. I like how the Carbine has places for scope, ammo and water bottles. It also holds the weapon. The inside of the bag is coated with something that on a previous backpack crumbled over the years in the heat. So recommend don't store bag outside with extreme heat. Overall, I am keeping, but wish some quality company would cater to tall guys.

I expected better quality material and construction from such a well revered brand at this price point. I see the current price (01-16-17) is well below what I paid. Very thin material that gives me pause every time I try to put gear inside; I'm afraid it will tear or blow a stitch. I don't carry a lot of weight in my packs, I use them to carry bulky, cold weather gear like insulated coveralls, layering fleece and rain gear. All that gear takes up space and sometimes packs in quite tightly. For a pack designed for hunting I thought the material would be a little more quiet; mine makes a crinkling sound like a cheese wrapper. When I decide to get more layers out of it while in the stand I fear I will alert game with the sound from the pack. I can only blame my own research skills for not noticing the hip belt is permanently attached to the pack. It's not a big deal, I just fold the belt ends across each other near the lumbar area and connect the buckles around the outside of the main body of the pack. I don't care for the weapon carry system; it's not very user friendly when there are items in the pack. There are plenty of pockets, but not much organization inside the main compartment. I like that the top carry handle has a release buckle on one end; it makes it easy to hang from branches that are too long to thread thought it. The pocket with the ammunition bandolier is kind of neat. Overall, I think my money is best spent elsewhere. Your mileage may vary.

The two bottom straps that help to align the butt of the rifle stock are so tight it is hard to get the rifle in and out without a fight. If you have a strap on it then it is even worst. It gets stuck if the strap is not pulled tight when trying to put the gun in or out. Trying to remove it in a pinch without scaring your game is not going to ever happen.

This pack is great! It fits all my gear and that’s 40 pounds of it. The only drawback, and it is not really bad, all the straps on it dangle. I need figure out a way to secure them. But so worth the money!

Great product. Well made and well designed back pack for hunting.

Hides easy and carry’s a lot of stuff use for deer hunting bow and gun haven’t got a muzzleloader tag yet but it will be with me there and coyote hunting

Just enough room for 2 days or a day hike luv it.

Fantastic​ bag for hunting, really easy to carry your rifle and great setup for carrying tripods as well. Legitimately will probably buy another.

una mochila que cumple las expectativas que tenia puestas en ella, comoda y con un grado medio de capacidad, ideal para una ascapada al campo de dos dias

Una mochila enorme, perfecta para irse un finde de acampada aunque la tela podria ser algo mas gorda pero aun asi estoy muy satisfecho

It held up the first year in the bush. Not 100 percent or will make next year but first year dis the trick.
