FAQs

Will it fit my CCW setup?

The dedicated CCW compartment measures 16″ H × 10″ W (≈ 17″ diagonal) and includes a large BAP strap for secure mounting. Compare your holster/attachment footprint to these dimensions.

Is the sling ambidextrous?

Yes. The Rapid Access Pull tab and sling layout support fast access from either side with minimal re-rigging.

Can I add armor without making it bulky?

Yes. Use our custom-fit Level IIIA insert (0.22″ thin, TSA-Approved, 5-year warranty). Install in seconds, or choose the Armored Bundle for a one-and-done protected setup.

Is it travel-friendly?

Absolutely. The padded back panel has a luggage pass-through, and cable/tube pass-throughs keep comms or hydration routing tidy. If you add our soft armor, it’s TSA-Approved.

How does the 18L compare to the 22L Sling?

The 18L prioritizes compact carry and quick access; the 22L adds space for larger loads and extended days. Choose based on capacity needs and footprint preference.
