I have one of their bigger bags and it's been pretty good to me. I did have one of the straps rip, but in their defense it was loaded down well over what it should have had in it. I wouldn't hesitate to buy more stuff from them.

I'm a fan.

I use their Monsoon Gearslinger as my hunting pack. I keep a Jumbo Versipack in my truck as a get home bag and I have a Remora Gearslinger that I carry sometimes with a bit of survival stuff, an extra handgun, and my kindle.

Good stuff. Durable. I usually buy it from LA Police Gear when they're running specials. Sometimes it's just free shipping, sometimes they'll throw in a couple accessories into a package deal.

I've carried my Jumbo Versipack for most of the 3 years I've owned it and it's still looking good. It is a bit disappointing that it's not American made, but I don't believe there is an alternative. My wonderful wife recently bought me the FR-1 and a 7x5x4V that I put on either side of the Mystery Ranch.

I have two Versipacks, one "S" type Fatboy and one Jumbo E.D.C..

The Fatboy I have had for about one year, and the Jumbo now for the last six months or so.

These bags are top shelf. They have been tossed around, dropped, kicked, sat on, stepped on, hung, crammed full of dumb crap and carried everyday.

One thing I will suggest is to go with the Jumbo if you are going the over the shoulder route, and get it for the opposite side that you carry your gun (if right handed, get the "S" type). The Jumbo will have a large enough rear pocket to carry a fullsize gun (I often carry my 1911 in that pouch when I am wearing my XD and vice versa). The rear pocket on the Fatboy is just a little too small for the full size frame. It would work great for a revolver or mid to compact/sub-compact handgun. The main compartment on both bags is huge, and has two pockets in it for smaller loose items. The external pockets are handy for a lot of uses.

I have to clean my bag out about once a week to get rid of the silly junk that finds its way into it from day to day. Makes for a great little range pouch as well. It is such a versatile bag that you will find many uses for it.

DO get the universal holster that they offer as well. For ten bucks it is well worth it. I need to get another one.
I am going to make the Fatboy a small necessities kit that I can throw into the vehicle for trips or emergencies.

I have a Fatboy "Jumbo" that functions as my "Jack Bauer Man Purse" and I am quite pleased with it. The large discrete pocket is big enough for a full size 1911 or my P220 and the big main compartment carries plenty of other stuff and there are tons of pockets. I have had it 5 years and whenever I go out in the woods or on the boat it is there with me, it has held up well and is comfortable to carry. YES to the universal holser upgrade cause it will fit everything. The only beef I have with the Jumbo is that there isnt a great place to carry pistol mags in the concealed compartment. I think a laptop bag would be a great setup and their gear is good stuff and well made.
