Hey folks, I'm looking at the 40l version. I've tried several pack carry approaches for my rifle but none of them cover every situation.
I was wondering if it's possible to pack a rifle between the bag and the frame for those times when you want the weight distribution and balance of the load "just right". Obviously it'd be a Chinese fire drill to get it off but when you're coming off the hill/heading home down a valley the chances of needing your rifle again can be quite small.
I don't see why you couldn't. The bag is completely separate from the frame, so you can put anything between them.Quote:

You could even move the load shelf's clips so the rifle sits lower.
Thanks for the idea. I'm going to try that next time :D.
I thought that model carried the rifle centred on the back of the pack? It has a built in rifle scabbard. Do you want it even closer to your body? Would you be knocking your head on it possibly?
Yep it has a center scabbard on the back. I use that but does work better when the pack has a bit more in it as it can flop around a bit when nearly empty on the bigger pack.
