Very well-done video review.+1

I have had mine for somewhat over a year and carry it on a daily basis. Sometimes as a concealed carry bag other times just as a general purpose carryall bag. Either way, it has turned out to be an outstanding investment. At the outset one should know that Maxpedition products are somewhat overbuilt. And the Jumbo is no different. Really wears well and is an excellent piece of equipment.

I bought a Jumbo a couple weeks ago and I love it. I don't necessarily like term sometimes used to describe it...a Man Purse. My masculinity is relatively unscathed.

I have it with me at all times, much to my Wife's chagrin.

I have one that I use during hunting season. I also have used it while traveling to carry a spare pistol (primary is in a holster) & other necessities....good product, well made.

I'm left handed so the right side carry works for me, it doesn't block my access to holstered gun on the other side. While hunting I carry my rifle in my left hand & pack is on the right.

I just ordered one...the Jumbo versipack. I plan on using it while commuting on my mountain bike to and from work. Hope I like it...lol

I just picked one up too and it will hold a lot! I'll add a longer more distinct pull cord to mine for the gun compartment to make it easier to find and not confuse with the many others!

They look pretty cool and useful, but im not sure if i can get past the "man-bag/murse" aspect...

If they're popular in San Fransisco, I don't think I could wear one...

I love my little Maxpedition Fatboy. I call it my "Man-Purse of Death" It great in the summer when I am out and about and wearin shorts or something. It also holds extra mags, my wallet, cell phone, PDA, knife, light, pens, paper, and anything else I can fit in it.

I really like the Maxpedition line of gear. I have two of their cell phone case and a pug wallet. Started off small just to inspect their quality.

I think they make very well and thought out designs.

I am trying to decide which of their larger products would be best for my lifestyle. I am looking at the Fatboy, the Jumbo Versipak and also at the Gearslingers Typhoon and Monsoon. I just can't make up my mind!

I do plan on replacing my old laptop case with the Operator Tactical Attache when I can convince the wife my old laptop case is worn out enough.

I really don't think you can go wrong with any of Maxpedition's gear.

They have tried to offer a unique break in types of items that people usually go to Blackhawk or Eagle Industries for and I salute them throwing their hat into the ring and providing quality items.
