Anyone?? :lmao:
Gerber are a reputable company, so i am thinking of just going for it, £20 isn't really a lot for a rucksack that looks this good.
Pack capacity is 21L.

Thanks John, to be honest, i don't think its too bad for £20 including PO.
It looks quality, is a nice colour, from a reputable manufacturer and a good size.
Will review when it arrives :)

I like the look of it, personally not a fan of that camo but still quiet is good, looks like it has some nice features on it too (water bottle holders etc). Looking forward to the review!

This is a better picture

looks like a nice bag ,the only thing that would put me off
would be no padding on the hip belt.
Having said that being 21 ltrs means you wont be putting
that much stuff in it to make it heavy enough to need padding.

Received the pack yesterday, had no time to test as of yet but on first appearences it looks very very nice.
The quality is excellent.
Will review within the next week :)
Is there a internal sleeve/pocket to put a hydration bladder in ?

It is compatible with the Gerber Reservoir, so i assume that it should be compatible with any hydration pack of similar size.
Will get the pics up soon P :D

Why is it "Silent"?
So you can be a stealthy hunter, according to the bumph on the websites.
