Anybody know what pack that is?
Yeah. It’s the “more expensive than the assault pack you were issued” bag…
LMAO!!!
It’s a Triple Aught Design Litespeed. Great pack!
Tad Gear FAST Pack Litespeed
It’s the smallest of the assault packs (IMHO) out there but you can cram a ton of stuff in there. It’s my EDC/BOB, plus all the PALs webbing make it great for arranging different loads. A bit pricey but you get what you pay for.
George has just lanced the boil of Tactical Nylon. F-ing ouch!
I would not say these T.G. packs are horrible, however.. IMHO, these packs are over hyped and way too “mythical”.
I and others find many “con’s” which due to the often “cult like” following of the pack go often overlooked, or go un-noticed until you actually own it.
1. Because it’s 1000 denier fabric + the “copious” amount of Molle webing + the added Beaver-tail + the “15? dangling *straps (*buy 15 Web Dominator’s, or keep tucking) and the pack is not as “light” as the name may imply (‘Lite’speed).
2. Start adding numerous extra pouches (“modularity”) and the weight increases, then fill those pouches along with the main compartment and feel how much it weighs.
3. The pack has a nice slim profile (only 5″ deep!), but if pouches are “piggybacked” on top of each other (front), the pack quickly looks cluttered and unsightly.
4. The zipper pouch at the top is rather uncomfortable to access quickly and cannot easily hold a cell ph. + wallet + eyeglass case together.
Yes, I have actually used both of them.
Ever wonder so many of them are being sold on Ebay?
“Not everything that glitters is gold.”
Additionally…. the T.G. Litespeed is a 22″ inches tall, if you do not have a long upper torso the pack is a poor fit for a medium to short torso and anything but comfortable.
As many of us do, I own several different packs.
My 3 day/assaults are:
18″ x 11″ x 6″ and 19″ x 12″ x 6″.
The Litespeed is only 5″ deep.
ZERT HO!!!!!
For those not in the know. ZERT 702 stands for Zombie eradication response team and 702 is the Vegas code where it is based although ZERT is now a worldwide community! 🙂
Well I’m 6′ tall so the pack works for me and since I ride to work on my Harley it’s not uncomfortable at all when I ride. It fits everything I need for emergencies and extra stuff in case the weather changes or the zombie apocalypse begins, and yes I’m a Z.E.R.T. member. Call sign: Z2126
