50649 ASSAULT PACK, TYPE II

Sturdy bag. Good material. Small enough for the essentials and still able to carry your helmet in the putter pouch. Love it!

Well made. TW Exfil w/peltors fits snugly in the pouch. Outermost pouch could hold a pvs14, or duals, or muffs. 3 hydration/cordage slits along the top that are masked in the loops along the top. Plastic stiffener in the back (not removeable afaik). Side molle bars front a top opening pocket (not obvious from the pics) that can hold a 30rd nato mag, or a couple of snickers bars. Lots of loops and such, no wasted real estate. Inside mesh partition is sturdy. The best thing about this pack is that it's size really limits how much dumb stuff you can hump. Ipad pro w/case fits in main compartment easily, but not in the mesh. I bet a mini could fit in the mesh easily tho.

A very nicely designed pack for the price. I wish it have MOLLE in the back or some kind of adapter kit for direct integration with an plate carrier like an MAP.

Yeah, its probably not as big on capacity as you think it is, and its not as modular as the Type I, but its still a solid piece of kit. You could fill this thing with at least 12 bricks in the main compartment, bludgeon no less than 5 (Five) deer to death with it, dump the bricks, and the stitchwork and fabric would be perfectly fine. Hell, use this thing to carry a broken, jagged, pieces of metal shrapnel sharp enough to go through your chest were you to fall on it, throw it around like a basketball for a couple hours, and it'll still hold fine. Though they dont declare it as a feature, you can use ALICE pack straps on it, and use Type II straps on your ALICE pack. Truly the best deer buldgeoning implement devised by man, not that you should tell Fish and Game about that.

Good pack with a few issues to get ironed out. The whole pack could be a bit deeper and you’d have a ton more use out of it. The three rows info MOLLE on the sides aren’t big enough to accommodate many of the newer pouches that require four columns (spiritus based pouches). While understanding it is an assault pack, the increased size would nicely give you a bit more capability with pouch comparability and carrying capacity. The shoulder straps could use a bit extra padding but aren’t terrible. The helmet storage fits the Team Wendy bump just fine with room to spare. A larger carry handle would be a nice fix as well. All in all a solid pack that could use some minor tweaks to be a great pack.

The bag is a great deal for the price. The only complaints I have is that I wish there was a larger carry handle on it, and it had posilock cord and not 550 on the zippers. The little bonus that I was not expecting was behind the molle on the flanks there are slit pockets that look big enough to hold bottled water.

I bought this pack for my daughter, she really likes it, I myself think it’s an amazing deal given the robust build quality, and the price is awesome!
