These are not your discount
store, big box sporting goods Back packs. If that type of
pack is good enough for you, Then don't waste our time looking
any further. The Eberlestock Backpack Systems with built in
rifle case is not for the faint of heart.
The
Phantom introduces a new type of tactical pack system; it's
the first product that provides an integrated drag bag and
backpack. It allows you to carry your heavy weapon in the
backpack, either with or without the concealing top-cover. If
the cover is not mounted, you can withdraw a full-scale sniper
weapon from the pack very quickly. Or, with the cover over the
weapon, nobody needs to know what you are carrying. And if you
leave the Control Clips undone, you can still pull the gun
right out.
The photo at left shows the scabbard-turned-drag bag, and the
re-configured pack. Note that the waistbelt can be
removed, and the harness can be mounted to the bag so that the
pack can be used as a conventional, non-scabbard pack.
The modular system lets you choose how much or how little of
the system you need for your mission: The full set, just the
Backscabbard, just the pack, or a drag bag.

The Phantom pack is a
Gunslinger-sized pack in its main load bay, but offers a
little more capacity because it is equipped with outboard
hydration/radio pockets. It offers the ability to remove
the bag and straps from the patented Backscabbard™, which
can then be combined
with the top-cover to make an excellent drag bag.
It's a front-loader, with two levels of varying-sized
tuck-pockets lining its interior, PALS racks inside and
out, and a fold-down shelf that can be used to divide the
main compartment into upper and lower chambers. A
plasticized mesh "rack" on the back wall of the upper
chamber can be used to carry larger radios or other items.
It will carry two 3-liter hydration kits, mounted in side
pockets. It features a longer waistbelt, with a 5 x 3 PALS
matrix on each side.
The Phantom incorporates Eberlestock's unique approach
to a variable-length gun case / drag bag, and allows you
to carry a wide variety of tactical weapons. It will
accommodate most light arms that military and police
forces use. The top-cover incorporates a pull-out sleeve
that goes over the butt of the rifle and the optics.
It provides a good amount of overlap for keeping debris
out of the gun compartment when dragging. The bag can
fully enclose a weapon up to 60" in length. |
