FliegerDuffel Came in Finally

I had purchased a Barron Load Out Duffel from Maxpedition a few months back for my overnight trip out of town, but,,,

Barron Duffel

I thought I needed something a bit bigger and more mobile.. (I’ll let the wife or maybe myself use the Barron for things here and there).

Soooo… I bought a FliegerDuffel.

The only thing I’m adding to it is a small bag from Maxpedition and the two patches you see on it.

Here’s the run down on this awesome bag:

This bag truly is a versatile bag!

The Maxpedition line of bags and accessories are some of the most rugged pieces of equipment I’ve ever owned.

Since my first purchase of a Maxpedition bag (on recommendation of a friend), I have converted to Maxpedition only.
If I need something for one of my bags or another bag of some kind, the first place I’ll start looking is Maxpedition – yeah, they’re that good.

Here are some pictures of the bag (not mine but some off the internet) to show you the various features:

It can be configured to carry any way you need it for the situation you are in at the time. It’s easy enough to re-configure, but, I would have rather seen snap-hooks like some of the other bags Maxpedition makes for quicker re-configuration of the carry strap.
There are plenty of Mole straps for add-ons such as the added bag I have on mine.
