I have had my Maxpedition Devildog a couple of months now (actually received one of the first in the U.S. when they arrived at Maxpedition) and I use it everyday. I had been looking for "something" that would allow me to put all my daily survival gear in one place and also be able to carry water. The Devildog was exactly what I was looking for. Mesh pockets on both sides to carry up to a 32 oz. "Nalgene" syle container and two pockets, front for quick access, and main for everything else. The main compartment is large enough to carry daily survival gear, plus large enough to carry a 8MM video camera and digital camera. When I am asked what the carry bag is all about I just state it is my camera bag. I have taken it everywhere, stores, schools, meetings and yes even to church, while wearing a coat and tie (remember it is now my "camera" bag). I tried to wear it using the waist belt but it was overloaded and rode very poorly on my waist (equals hurt my back). I did mention that fact to the company and suggested that some type of harness be developed to help carry heavier loads. I normally carry it using the hand carry strap, or shoulder strap when I need both hands free. For those of you that have experienced the Maxpedition quality, it is superb!

I do not have any ties to Maxpedition, but I wish I did... and yes I did pay full retail price!

Experimenting with survival gear to find the right combination does get costly but my search for a daily carry bag is over!
