One other issue I do not like about this pack is the top closure. It has a drawstring at the top, and compression straps that pull down vertically, but this gaps and if the pack it really full at the top, it is a sloppy fit. I also purchased the Assault Pack for the MOLLE II system, and that is a great addition to your load out. The Assault Pack can attach to the Rucksack via 8 straps that hold it rock solid in place. I have used several other brands of back pack, and the MOLLE II is the one I find myself reaching for everytime.
