| Review: |
This bag is great, I got it at my local shop for $50 and that was a great price and the bag is worth every penny. It is made very well from heavy duty material and has a comfortable gel pack that velcros right on your lower back. The top handle is also well made and comfortable along with the shoulder straps. I can easily fit my mask, marker, hopper, harness, several pods, spare parts, tools, and spare change of clothes and towels and still have room for more.
I do wish the upper and lower parts were separated to make it easier to get to the bottom pouch without having to take everything out of the top. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you have the $$ and need a bag, get it! Definitely the best bang for the buck! |

| Review: |
Basically, the Raven Backpack is perfect for anybody that wants to carry all their gear. 4 barrel slots in the pack allow for safe carrying of all the barrels you'll need for the day. The side pockets are perfect for carrying your co2 and up to a 88ci nitro tank. The straps and comfort gel are really where the Raven Packpack shines. Even loaded down completly with all your paintball stuff, or even as i've had it, loaded with a computer, and speakers, its very comfortable. Raven designed it with a gel pack that sits directly where all the weight is on your back and makes it a nice soft spot, which takes alot of the weight off of you. The top of the bag has a somewhat hidden compartment that is awesome for storing your wallet, phone, watch or any other things that you may want to keep safe while playing during the day.
Any fan of raven will love the styling of the bag with plenty of Raven glyphics all over it. To me, its much more pleasing to look at than any other bag out their. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you are looking for a good gear bag, with lots of room, comfort and styling, then definitally go Raven. After you get one Raven product you'll be hooked. The company has quality goods all the way around. |

| Review: |
This back pack has several feature that sets above the rest. The first is that it can hold every thing. No more carrying three or four bags just to get your stuff to the field. It has a gun pouch on the back side. There are four 14" barrel slots. If you get a longer barrel just make sure it is two piece. At the bottom of the bag there is a reinforced ball container that can be taken out. A stiff velcro flap seperates it from the rest of the bag. There is a devider if you use two types of paint, and it hold 2,000 balls. On each side ot the back pack are slots for Co2 or nitro tanks. The only problem with the tanks slots is that they only hold small nitro tanks. This pack has a ton of small pouches where you can put squegees, keys, cd player, spare parts, batteries, etc. At the front of the bag are to straps two hold a skate board. I don't skate board. I wakeboard, but the straps are great if you do. Even after you load every thing into the bag there is still room to fit your whole closet in it.( Just kidding) Another reason why this back pack is better than other bags is that it is very comfortable. There is a thick gel pad right where your butt goes, and the straps are contoured. Even if you don't need all the features you should buy it because it looks awsome. There is a giant Raven logo on the front made of rubber. I've used this bag for half a year and it still looks like new. It is made of heavy duty material. |
|
| Conclusion: |
BUY THIS BACK PACK IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING TO CARRY ALL YOUR STUFF IN. COMPARED TO ALL THE OTHER STUFF OUT THERE THIS IS THE BEST BAG YOU CAN GET! |
