Anyone toting one of these small backpacks around? Not much on the web regarding reviews.

I put a BWMG platform pack on my Christmas list and used it as the core of a carry system I've been working on this winter. Along with the platform pack, I added Tethrd shoulder straps and roll up pouch. Also a Trophyline rangefinder pouch. It tooks some experimentation to get all the connections to work out, but I believe I have it down as of this past Monday, when Amazon dropped off some split rings and Nite-Ize S-biners. This is what it looks like in the present iteration. With my EDP platform, 20" Beast Sticks, Sig RF and a few necessities such as field dressing kit, folding knife, headlamp and small flashlight, the entire rig weights a bit over 13#. FYI.....the roll up pouch is for carrying a vest or outer layer, plus the necessities listed above.

Neat looking setup! I ordered a hitch hiker to attach to my XOP retrograde stand. I may put a review here myself if nothing pops up before my backpack strap setup and hitch hiker shows up
