    I went the cheap way and got a tent/canvas shop to sew a pocket at the bottom of each side of my regular pack. The stock sits in the pocket and the regular tightening straps hold it onto either side.

    It sits higher than one of those nice fancy packs but it didn't cost much

    Hi there, I am the NZ importer and distributor of the Vorn packs, please visits the website, the video pretty much speaks for itself. We sold out of stock at the Tahr show and will be confirming our order on Wednesday to fulfil the preorders we have so far. We are limited to 60 of the 42 litre packs with this order as this is all that are left in Norway. ( the 12-20 litre has completely sold out) The next production run will be October at the earliest. Feel free to contact via the site. REN

    Hi Bill, you can rest assured that your valuable weapon and optics will not be compromised in using this pack, Vorn undertook several years of development before the patented this system, they are currently working on a developing a module to be attached to larger packs for the Norwegian armed forces, there will also be a civilian model as well next year.

    Howdy, yes they are much lighter, around 2.5 kg, the Gunslinger 2 would be a comparable pack but this "Quick Rifle Release" sets the Vorn packs apart from anything else on the market.

    The Vorn packs are also made of material that will be quiet in the bush, you are also able to remove your rifle from the pack within 2 seconds very discreetly and quietly, you must unclip the dome on your left shoulder and pull the release mechanism before the rifle can be withdrawn so there is no chance of it accidentally falling out.

    The fabric used on the outside of the Vorn packs is an Olive Green twill spun polyester, it is also used by another two Norwegian pack manufacturers Norrona and Bergans. The internal orange material is a urethane coated nylon.

    Give him a chance Faregame. He was simply answering the questions posed in this thread - which none of us knew the answer to. It's not exactly directly advertising.

    The Vorn QRR operation reminds me a bit of parachute cut-aways... "Hands to the Capewells..." Pity the pack is a bit small.
    10MRT shooters do it 60 times, in two directions and at two speeds.

    hi there I've got a vaun and a dragonfly. The Vorn is by far the best pack for a weekend trip. Its very well built and feels really good with a load on. The fast release is simply the best on the market.
    A total new concept. Easy to draw out and do those running shots when you least expect it. well worth buying quality.

    Have you got a pic of the release set up and how it is activated rockman? I am curious to see if it is the same as a HSPR or main chute release, cheers.
    Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
