the Assassin is better?
Im happy with my Predator, I hang it from my kestrel molle walking in
In my opinion, yes, the Assassin is just a better product. Never heard it make a peep in all the years I used it, extremely solid, can toe hook it all you want, larger surface area, and didn't open up so that I could keep it folded without having to use gear ties or the strap to hold it flat (this really helps when hanging it).
My predator feels small, sometimes squeaks/pops, and of course now the quality/safety issues that have been well documented on this site.
Obviously the Assassin is heavier, but it's bigger, it's supposed to be heavier. If weight is by far the most important variable I would suggest the Predator or ROS.
I'm sure if I had never used an Assassin I would be in love with my Predator, but I have, so I'm not.
