Lunada Gearslinger

Great bag and a good size for EDC, though it's kind of on the large size, and tempting to really overfill. The D-rings on the top are great to clip a water bottle on, and to keep it from flopping about, I ran a piece of 1/8" shock-cord through the webbing lower down on the side and slip the water bottle into it - secured both top and bottom it stays out of the way but easy to access - no need for a bulky separate water-bottle pouch, unless you need something insulated. Front Admin Pockets/Panel: Well sized - I've got my larger and smaller items separated accordingly - the top pocket easily holds a small pill holder, full-sized BIC lighter, small multi-tool (Leatherman Micra), 6 ft. tape measure and a couple of hanks - 6ft of shock-cord and 6 ft of paracord, with lots of room to spare. Will also fit a full 7-day pill organizer. The lower pocket holds larger items nicely: Leatherman Wave, 2 flashlights (S-Mini 18650 and Mag 2xAA LED), pocket knife (Spiderco Endura), small pry-bar, generic plastic magnifying glass, spare 18650 batteries for the S-Mini, lotion, and a microfiber cloth in the slip pocket. There's also a key hook that I use for a USB thumb drive - very handy to have with you. I also attached my hard-shell sunglasses case to the velcro field with $0.75 worth of industrial-grade adhesive velcro from a fabric store. I secure it fully with the shock-cord - glasses are going nowhere. Main Compartment: ROOMY! The two slip pockets are nice, and I frequently carry my 7" tablet in one of them, with room to spare. The flap with the zippered pocket is also very handy - I keep phone and tablet chargers in there, along with their cables, and there's tons of room left over - it keeps occasionally used items organized and out of the way. The zipper pull also doubles, in my case, as a place to hang a Streamlight Nano. The rest of the main compartment is great for larger things - a pair of mechanic's gloves, larger hank of paracord, spare AA battery holder, 8x21 binoculars etc. Improvements I'd like to see: 1) The rear "CCW" pocket is great, but the strap won't tuck into it as comfortably as Maxpedition says. It will go in there, but makes the overall package pretty bulky. 2) The auxiliary strap - it would be an improvement if they attached it to the bag with a swivel hook instead of wrapping around the D-ring. As it stands, it's cumbersome to use, so I keep it off. 3) Interior - some d-rings, key clips, and para-loops (like on the pocket organizer series) to hang frequently-used items would be handy. Elastic retention might be nice too, but as necessary. 4) Hydration reservoir/bladder - This isn't on Maxpedition, necessarily, but it would be a great option to have. The CCW pouch could fit a 1L bladder easily, but the only one I could find, so far, with the right dimensions is the Kangaroo 1L with pouch, which is way too expensive for this application. The bottom line is that this is a fantastic bag, and though there's always room for improvement, I'm well satisfied with my purchase and happy to use this every day. It's easy to over-stuff and find yourself carrying to much, so watch out for that.

I bought this bag predominately as an EDC to help carry my firearm. I use to carry a waist pouch and realized I needed something a bit bigger to accommodate a few other essential items. It was important to me to have some sort of compartmentalization so that items can be found when needed. I was torn between the Remora and Lunada by Maxpedition. After giving it some thought I realized that I needed adequate space to carry a subcompact 45 caliber (Glock, model 30). Most reviews I saw on YouTube did not show many or even mention what type of pistol would fit appropriately in the bag. I figured I could not go wrong with the bit larger size in the Lunada. I thought the bag to be more of a square shape versus a rectangle according to the pictures online. However, this is not the case and is shaped more like a loaf of sliced bread (wider of course). It is a good looking and feeling bag. Durability, quality and performance do not appear to an issue. I trust the bag should hold up for a long time. In fact, I'll probably grow bored with it and look for a new color before I wear it out. I would like to share that I found the main compartment (largest one) is where I chose to carry my pistol. The other option exists in the rear of the pouch that makes contact with one's body (I didn't like how that felt). Because I use the inner, larger compartment, I am limited in what I could store there. If you carry too much in that area, you will interfere with the accessibility of withdrawing your gun if needed. I used a smaller zipper pouch to consolidate a few items to keep things from spilling, uncapping, or tearing while in the pouch. I also, use the Maxpedition Universal CCW holster which attaches to the Velcro lining in the respective concealed carry pockets to better secure my gun. As a male, I don't need a whole lot of items but like that I am now able to carry a bit more than I was able to in the past. Items I use the bag for are: cell phone, wallet, mp3, ChapStick, hand sanitizer, Ibuprofen, LED flashlight, multi-tool, folding knife, small journal, pen, Sharpie marker, hand lotion, Wet Naps. I still have more than half the space still available. Do not question this purchase. If you need a bag that doesn't exceed the previously mentioned items by much more, then this will do fine. You're only concern should be what color will you buy?

I've had this for 9 years now and it's still in perfect condition. Use it on and off. Get something new, try that for a while - keep going back to this. You understand why it's expensive as soon as you get it. The material is nearly indestructible. Very well made, very heavy duty. There are pockets literally everywhere. I still don't know if I've found them all. It's just a great bag and a good size tjat doesn't take up too much space. I added a bottle holder onto the side and made use of the molle webbing on the opposite side to carry a small flashlight and larger tactical pen (they are nearly the same size) for quick access. Inside has another case with every charger and cord I might ever need, anker backup battery, my meds, aspirin ECT. Smaller pockets have travel flatware, collapsible straw, a knife, some pepper spray ECT.. House and car keys live in the smallest pocket up top, and my wallet and cash stay in the zippered pouch inside the main compartment. Still has spare room, and the pack sleeve can fit an 8" tablet or compact handgun. This bag really is built to last. Don't think for a minute those $30 knockoffs are just as good - cause I promise they won't be. You could fit 3 insulated water bottles inside the main compartment if you wanted to, cause I did that for a while also.

Bought this in 2017 for work/edc. I work in construction so I thought I should have something that is durable and can take some abuse. Well, this bag is a beast. I gave it a thorough inspection the other day after realizing I've been using it every day for over 4 years and it's in perfect condition. No scratches or tears and every stitch is in place! I have not taken it easy on this bag and twice I have washed it with soap and water (which I heard is not a good idea) and it's just like new. I would buy it again if it ever fails me, but I'm certain that day will never come.

Early days yet, had it just over a week, but if the obvious excellent build quality holds up as it looks like it will I'm going to have this bag a good while. Onto the bag itself, it looks quite small on the outside but packed sensibly it holds so much; small first aid kit, small survival kit, torch, multi-tool, torch, and numerousother bits of EDC kit plus Kindle Fire tablet, Fuji X100 camera, spare batteries and several filters and still room for my sarnies. And that's before I start itch the ability to attach pockets, pouches or kit to the molle webbing on the bag and the shoulder strap. All in all, this seems to be the ultimate EDC and travel bag

Mit dem Maxpedition Lunada Gearslinger erhält man ein hochwertiges Produkt, welches man für den täglichen Gebrauch im Großstadtdschungel und für die kurzen Outdoortrips in der freien Natur nicht mehr missen will.
