Unit orders: please call - we can make arrangements! snipershide.com by Mike Miller "The Marauder is probably the best three-day design ever made. In fact it’s the only three-day type I have used that would carry heavy loads with ease. Loaded with enough gear and water to perform a three day mission it carries heavy loads like a much larger framed pack. The Marauder is an internal frame design with Aluminum stays to help with the heavy loads. Most packs in this category are frameless and a frameless pack does not do well with a heavy load. The Marauder is covered inside and outside with PALs webbing. More and more companies are putting PALs webbing on the outside but this is the first pack to add it inside. If you wonder why the PALs webbing is added, the answer is simple. With PALs you can add any number of pouches to fill any carry need. The webbing on the inside is great for Snipers, EOD and Medics because it allows these operators to store gear in easy to get to compartments. The pack further zips out to allow you access to the inside compartment with ease. The inside pouches lay out like a well built tool box. In my opinion all packs of this type should have the PALs webbing on the inside and out! The pack is completely adjustable to fit most any user on the planet. The Marauder will fill the needs of all LE Snipers, EOD and Medics. It is the perfect SWAT Type pack. .... The Marauder can also be used as an add on to any of the Larger Kifaru Packs. Mine rides on the back of my Point Man when I am to be out for more than a week, or have additional gear to carry. I sometimes find with classes I teach, that I become the re-supply for students. In most cases I will load up the Point Man with additional food, first aide and water, then add my gear to the Marauder and strap it on the outside of the Point Man. This just takes a few seconds and has been well worth the trouble...." Excerpt from a letter For what it's worth, the Kifaru packs are easily the most comfortable I've ever worn (I have the Scout as well as the Marauder). The hike to the falls is about 12 miles, and the first mile-and-a-half is switchbacks down the side of the canyon. Normally that would have been no problem, but I had spasmed my back a couple of days earlier, and was seriously considering not going. |
