My review of my new 5.11 Range Ready Bag (lots of pics)

[sonyman74]

Don't get me wrong I liked my XD Gear range bag but this one is SO much nicer that it. I payed about $20 more for it but it is well worth it. Lets start with the pouch with the mag holders. It holds 8 mags and even the 45 mags fit.


The main compartment has 2 side pockets I put my XD-9 & XD-45 in. A smaller bag to put whatever you can think of. I use my XD gear kit boxes to store mags in as you can see and it holds 2 of them perfect. And a smaller brass bag.






It has 2 front pockets that a very roomy. I can put another XD gear kit box in one of them and 8 boxes of 00 buck for my Benelli M4.




Another on the side I put my ear plugs and safety glasses in.



And on the other side has another good size pocket I put some cleaning supplies in and a pouch for a water bottle.


And it has a nice shoulder strap that has a non-slip grip to it and I'm glad b/c after I loaded this thing down it is heavy. I really like this bag over the others I looked at. 5.11 Great Job!!!

My dad has this bag. The D-ring that hold the shoulder strap came apart, so I would recommend carrying it by hand when possible, especially when very heavily loaded.

Range Ready Bag

Cheapest price on the web. its a fantastic bag. Bought several of these for myself and friends from this site. The bag is pretty stylish and very solid construction.

Sure looks like the bag that Midway always sells for $39.95 and on-sales it for $34.95, even sometimes has been as low as $29.95.

Doesn't just look the same, it looks identical right down to the removable second inner bag, mag holders, pockets, and shoulder strap.

I guess it's got a tactical name though, and it's worth it to have a tactical name.

I have the Midway bag and I got it new for $29.95. I would love to tell you that the Midway bag is as good as the 5.11 bag but, it's not. The Midway bag is a POS in many ways. I've compared my Midway bag to the 5.11 bag and the Shooters Connection bag (that looks the same) in real life (not just in pictures). The Midway bag is not even close to the same quality as either of the other two.

I'm not going to get into a big pissing contest abut this. I'd love to tell you about how smart I am for buying the same thing as a 5.11 bag for less than half the price. But, in reality, I'm a fool for thinking I could do that.

krs, I agree that they look the same. But, they are so different that I can say that I am sure you have never compared the 2 bags side-by-side in real life.
