Mystery Ranch 3DAP (Three Day Assault Pack) Overview, My Most Used Backpack

To much demand, this is a longer video of mine. The overview of the Mystery Ranch 3DAP setup Ive used the most in my photos and in my training/patrols. I go over the entire loadplan, a good companion video is my video on the Velocity Systems Jungle Kit where I go over the contents of some of the Magpul DAKA pouches shown inside the pack. If using the Airlite chest rig, these pouches would be inside my pack instead of inside the GP on the belt kit, hence why they are in the video. Any questions, feel free to comment or message me!

I grew up in FL and only recently moved away. Water is such a major thing and people underestimate it because there is so much water in the state.

[@Wandrew223]

Really well done. Enjoying the content and looking forward to what your putting out! Thanks.

[@opfor8r]

Thank you!

[@jaredweiman2987]

Places like Texas and Florida can pretty much skip most of the cold weather gear for at least 10 months out of the year. As long as you stay dry, you shouldn’t have a problem with hypothermia.

[@opfor8r]

For sure, most I bring is a sweater or silky top

[@PewLand]

The biggest killer in Florida is the insects. Mosquitos, ticks, no see ums, wasps, spiders,caterpillars you get the picture. Having a bug net for your head is not enough. Something like a full bug mesh jacket is mandatory if you don't want to catch disease or get carried away by blood sucking mosquitos. When I go on rucks through swampy areas I have a congo line of mosquitos that follow me for miles. If you don't have a hydration bladder and need to stop to hydrate they will make you their bitch.

[@harjupsingh1255]

I’m absolutely loving the videos man! Thanks! If it’s possible, I’d love to see you get home setup, that would awesome to see and learn from. I wish I didn’t have to worry about all of my cold weather gear I have to take with me, but I’m happy I dialed a lot of that stuff in this past winter. Thanks again!

[@opfor8r]

I'll do a video on the "get home" setup but its pretty bare bones lol

[@harjupsingh1255]

@@opfor8r and I think because of that, it would be very educational. Barebones so you can get home quicker (probably!?!) but still have what you consider to be essential

[@ContraIsBased]

23:25 I really like that tip of putting your shit inside the balaclava,really helps with organization.I hope you can make more sustainment videos in the future,cheers!

[@turtlewolfpack6061]

The Glock is actually a half decent e-tool. If you want one that is absaloutely bulletproof (not literally) but isn't quit as compact as the Ames, Gerber, Glock or whatever the Cold Steel one is crazy. Had my first one for years and haven't managed to kill it yet. I am a bit of an e-tool junkie so I will likely have a Glock soon as well.

[@TheLoneRanger745]

If you're looking for them, THEY are looking for you, ditch any bright colors that will give you away ,that yellow first aid kit leave it at home- put it all in your p-mag ,ditch that net ,that laptop, and everything that goes with it, you can do all that on your mobile phone- jumper battery, dig a hole burry shit ,trash , bring unscented ass wipes tp, remember your on the Move,. Your not going camping ! Now that you got rid of alot of crap bring that helmet for nods, don't forget ammo and food , remember your on the RUN, but no one can see you moving. Love you Buddy.

[@calmolly1]

Great video. Rucks and load outs are so personal and mission specific. There is no one size fits all . Keep up the content

[@opfor8r]

Yeah, its def personal. Some things are omitted, others reinforced, and it constantly changes as well.

[@jacobray8518]

They got hard to find because the exchange started carrying their bags in black, coyote, and mc

[@Khemtime]

Been looking at this or the Komodo Dragon to replace my Maxpedition Falcon II that I’ve been using for 8 years. Love it but it’s just too small. Does the pack have straps on the bottom to attach a sleep system? Miss you on IG but liking the YT content. Keep it going 👍

[@opfor8r]

Yes it does have webbing on the bottom

[@Khemtime]

@@opfor8r awesome. You have any problems with the trizip design? I like the concept but it seems like something that you’ll either love or hate.

[@Khemtime]

And where do you put water bladders? Is there a separate compartment specifically for water?

[@opfor8r]

@@Khemtime yeah theres a pocket for it, but I usually run a 2qt canteen instead

[@opfor8r]

@@Khemtime I really like it! How I stack my gear, it makes convenient to get my sleep system or a change of socks.

OooooooOOOMH

[@davidleonard1813]

Nice looking pack. I just prefer a bucket type pack. Opening from front zip, straps and back are on the ground. If it's wet raining muddy...at very least you have a wet pack on your back. A 40 45 Lt bucket type any brand. If it's got molle attach a SAW or a GSR gasmask case. Now you got some access without going in. Pack frequent use stuff outside. The best thing about this is it increases the footprint of base of pack. Now it will pretty much all the time sit up on its base, keeping crap off the back and your shoulder straps

[@concernedpatriot.2221]

South Florida ? Cool. Miami / Kendall area here. 👍🏻

cheers bro!! good material!! it was really helpful!

Thanks for the support!

[@TheJoshiscool123]

You convinced me to pick this backpack up too. I was searching for a satl but settled for the KD after watching this video.

[@katsugi183]

Thanks for the detailed breakdown of the bag ❤️❤️ more food 🤣🤣 gotta fuel up

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

Good video Op 🤙🏼 we are still black listed from Instagram. Did you end up moving forward with the patreon?

[@opfor8r]

Yes! All my associated accounts online are on my Linktree! linktr.ee/opfor8r

[@EverydayCitizensTactical]

@@opfor8r groovy, I’ll help spread the word to my followers. I Think we are going to make a move to patreon as well for more frequent content postings.

[@opfor8r]

@@EverydayCitizensTactical That or a website are significantly better for detailed posting than most other platforms.

How do you like those altama OTB shoes? How is the sizing and fit??

Yes! Now I can finally rest 😆

Great video, how much does the backpack weight with all that stuff? thanks

Why E tool in a recon kit?

[@joem8457]

You should upload your content to Odysee as well! Get it out there further!

[@opfor8r]

Its a possibility, for now as long as people spread it far and wide it'll get to as many people

[@Timantinpoimija]

What is the total weight?

[@cameronl8]

Do you have any recommendations for what bdu's to use for summer?

[@opfor8r]

Standard BDUs/ACUs, Crye field uniforms, for real hot weather Kuhl clothing

[@Saintgrove4life]

Excellent

[@majestic._]

have you found the foam bolsters for body armor to be useful? do they justify spending the 200 dollars for this over the mystery ranch 2dap?

[@opfor8r]

I dont have any experience with the BVS stuff or the foam for armor.

[@davethrasher4124]

They are worth it on armor in my experience, but your mileage may vary

[@eligefashion]

Good stuff Gio 👏👏👏

[@adamdyment9732]

Nope, you can reach me here, on Patreon, or Twitter

@@opfor8r damn. Loved your ig. This stuff is good too. Look forward to the next one

[@kissme4492]

Does this fit in overhead bins for airplanes ? Thanks

[@opfor8r]

It might, its going to be a tight squeeze, I usually fly with the 2DAP which is smaller than this and it sometimes is real tight fit

[@kissme4492]

Are you referring to overhead bin space or under your seat? Thanks

[@RustyShackleford-gl1vi]

I’ve flown with my now discontinued Mystery Ranch Big Horn which is a bigger pack. It’s a 3,000 cubic inch pack while the 3DAP is 2,000 cubic inches. The truck is to pack right and cinch it tight.

[@booba8930]

I've flown with a 2DAP and it barely fit under the seat, I didnt have much room for my feet
