Here is another pack that I have look at a time or two...

Tactical Assault Gear's 5 day pack is designed for today's operational requirements. Main compartment has (2) two 100oz. hydration bladder pouches sewn to the inside of the pack on the left and right hand side. There is a slot for a frame sheet for added rigidity or another 100oz. hydration bladder.

I like the idea of being able to lug aroundcover 2 gallons of water if I need to. Tactical Assault Gear does not show it on their web site but Down Rang Tactical does carry it. I like of all the PALS webbing to hang stuff off of the pack (which my A-III does not have) and it is made in America. I just hate to give up my A-III. It has served me so well!!
