it doesn’t. How much stuff you take with you?

but seriously, since there’s not any good pics of the couple pockets it does have I thought I’d take a few for people considering it. There’s is the main bag, two water bottle pockets, a pocket in the lid and one in the front (last two shown in pics)

Hmmm, if the coyote brown is all that is available in my size it is still worth it?

The Pintler is a nice bag. Love the 3 way zipper. The only complaints I had were, it wasn’t on a pop up frame and although it did have a meat shelf it wasn’t easily accessible. Also the lid opens back towards the frame and has pockets. So if you store items in the lid it continuously closes on you. If the lid opened like the treehouse and it was on a pop up frame it would be damn near perfect.

You can order the XL and replace the belt for $35. Or replace it with a Kifaru belt for $105 (see my recent post). Also, my dad spoke to MR right after he ordered the XL because he was afraid it was going to be too big and they told him they would have recommended that he order the womens version in a medium. Apparently, there’s only a small difference in the harness but I would confirm that with them before going that route.

From their sizing I didn’t figure I needed a XL. I thought what I read was the same torso for L and XL and the only difference is the waist. I’m 34-36 so thought L would be plenty.

I have the venture 2300 and used eberlstock m1 mainframe that I haven’t figured out a good way to use. I love the venture for what it is but I’m not sure how it’ll handle a deboned deer. That why I was kind of looking at the pop up as a mix If the two.

what’s this talk about a $350 bag with a crummy waist belt? Why does it need replaced?
 
My biggest gripe with the PU right now is trying to figure out how to haul my platform and sticks

Correct, the difference between the large and the extra large is only the belt. You can replace the belt with a large belt for $35. I wouldn’t say it has a crummy waist belt. But it is a $350 pack that does not have a waist belt that compares to a $1000 Kifaru pack.

I put my sticks horizontally in the meat shelf and then platform above and closed the pack over top and cinched it right.

That’s how I have it now. Was trying to get away from horizontal sticks but I don’t see any other way as of now. Vertical on the sides maybe but then can’t access side pouch

I'm gonna need a Mod to close this. These enablers are already making me buy upgrades to an item that is still with Fedex and l have not even taken to the wood yet. People like this are the one that created reverse mortgages.

Come up
With a way for me to thread the buckle through the water bottle pocket without me ruining my PU haha
 
Got the PU28. So far im actually very happy. Its about the perfect size for me. My winter coat and bib barely fit in the main compartment. But that's all l really want put in there. Also the top and size pockets are actually bigger then expected. The color was darker too compared to what you see on photos and videos, which suit me. And its comfortable. More testing is needed obviously but I'm happy with it!

Pictures?
 
Just got PU28 like HuumanCreed and I think its a keeper. It won't do everything I need perfectly but will certainly be better than my old pack.....That is until the PU30 becomes availble!!
 
Will post a picture fully m packed later winter clothes. But this is what it look like now with just usual stuff. Really liking how big the top and front pocket is. Might not need to get the Pintler bag like l planned down the road after all.
