First Tactical Specialist 1-Day Backpack Tactical Reviews, Deals, Problems and Guides

I just happened to come across First Tactical four years ago, and impulse bought their Executive Briefcase, the range bag, and this 1-day specialist backpack. They're all seriously high quality, but the backpack has seen daily use for over four years--hundreds of flights, quite a few hunts, etc. I don't baby my gear. Outside of losing a couple of zipper pulls, this bag still looks like it did the day I bought it. This is some seriously overbuilt gear and a steal at their price. If i had to criticize anything, I would have preferred a secondary waist belt as the sternum strap alone doesn't stabilize the pack quite as much as one might like (hunts, motorcycle rides, etc). You won't be disappointed in this. Note--this backpack isn't exactly light due to the heavy-duty materials used. This is my preference because it's really held up, but that might be a consideration for others as you start loading it up.

I like how sturdy the bag is, it is very comfortable when I use it. I’m just hoping the zippers hold up longer then my last pack. It seems that I will enjoy it more and will be back again for another

Not that I'm a connoisseur of packs but, WOW this pack was well worth the $$ and exceeded my expectations. Features, build quality...5-star pack
