European Military - Warrior Assault Systems X300 Backpack

[@kenmorrison1725]

Cracking bit of kit and the weight disappears when you put it on. I love mine and wish they would make the same pack in both larger and smaller capacity.

[@TheOutdoorGearReview]

How long have you had yours Ken and what is the most weight that you have carried in it? - Luke

[@kenmorrison1725]

@@TheOutdoorGearReview a little under 2 years and if had up to 22kg in it and it was ok not sure I push much beyond that though

[@johnnymilan6264]

They also do a 25L called the Pegasus and a 40L called the Predator. Both very cool packs. And a huge 150L called the BMF. Google Warrior Assault Systems. Awesome bits of kit!!! I get my from a English firm called UK Tactical 👍

[@greekveteran2715]

At 4:39 that's a grab handle. This is a mil spec backpack. It can be used to grab the backpack fast out of a vihicle or a chopper etc or even , if you stuck, your comrade can grab and pull you out of a situation, using that grab handle.

[@dudebig5404]

I love that you know that ! very cool. Peace & be safe.

[@xfatsx1991]

I can't vouch for their backpacks, but I've used alot of WAS chest rigs and plate carriers and they'll last you your entire life. Although they are pricey, they're actually relatively cheap compared to other manufacturers like Crye Precision. Fun fact, although a UK based company, in recent years, the British SAS/SBS have been seen using Crye (US company) instead of WAS. As from yesterday, the Royal Marines Commandos have also switched completely to Crye Precision. You'd think elite UK forces would use a UK based company but I guess not. Great video as always 👍

[@urbanjungle9600]

Love Warrior Assault Systems gear - I’ve got a lot of their pouches and it’s good value, well made, well thought out gear with great fit and finish.

[@Militaryshoplv]

Wait for our Warrior Assault Systems equipment review for pouches, plate carriers etc.

[@michaeltillman886]

I really like the review. This packs a winner for me.

[@MoorlanderEDC]

This a great pack. Love seeing European stuff on your channel. You should definitely test some Tasmanian Tiger gear. Made for police and the military through out Europe. Awesome video buddy

[@Militaryshoplv]

No problem ! ;)

[@ginaleefarber2422]

I am in love. This pack is truly a wonderfully made piece of equipment and at the same time would protect what you put inside it. Grateful the company had you review it. This could get lost in the maze of backpacks on the market. Take care and be blessed Luke and keep the videos coming. I have gotten my Mom watching your videos and we share so many tips. We even use a lot of what you have shared and modified some for our little permanent campsite. Where space is limited you do all you can to be comfy out in nature.

[@fryefamilyaoutdoors]

As an Army veteran of 8 years that assault system is awesome. The only flaw I see is no hydration system or pouches to put water bottles. The top compartment I would load that with pogey bait (snacks such as combos, pretzels, jerky and some other goodies). A carribeaner could easily be used to hold water bottles or get the water bottle holder attachments to add.

[@olddominionmedic1519]

Saw a few of these in Afghanistan. Scouting teams had some. They regularly carried up to 50 lbs.

[@ChrisC30]

I used to love packs that had 'dual access' features. Lately, though, I've been using packs with top access only. Now, I only have one such pack, an Eberlestock FAC Trak, and all my others are top access. The X300 looks amazing. I have no doubt it'd serve a soldier well. I am no stranger to Warrior Assault Systems gear. They overbuild their stuff. Very durable and great quality.

[@Uthrid]

Can't go wrong with Warrior Assault Systems, most of my kit is from them: My daysack, shooters belt, webbing belt and various other pouches. And now im looking to add this to my collection.

[@aggyMI]

Great impartial review Luke, always respect your stance on reviewing products from international markets, so many similar KZbinrs to yourself approach it from a "Buy USA made or nothing view" which is kind of a narrow minded view and gets a bit boring, so your open impartial views are always a breathe of fresh air.

[@andyventures6574]

Waist belt, remove and add pouches to the molle and you've an edc daybelt carry system.

[@richard_n]

I love all the pockets and storage options. Adjustablility of the straps is huge for me. The double access is a big plus as well.

[@WhiteLantern]

Love military grade packs. . . their weight I will put up with. In my 50 years of backpacking I've had more than one pack fail on a hike, so i tend to go with bomb-proof packs. The packs i am currently using the most is a Karrimor Sabre 30 for day hikes, a Sabre 45 for 2 to 3 day trips and a Saber 75 for winter and extended journeys. You have a great channel, Luke. Thanks and all the best.

[@Legionnaire7777]

You should check out Crib Gogh packs.

It's militaryshop.LV not IV just in case anyone is searching based on audio from the video. Link in the description works though.

Thank you for that!!!

[@thomaskrop2199]

I live in the Netherlands and use a lot of warrior assault system (WAS) gear. I love the quality and they are not that expensive

[@Raventommm]

Ze zijn geweldig!

[@dudebig5404]

It looks like a great pack... I am always impressed with your reviews. You are the ONLY guy out there who actually USES this equipment for Many adventures and puts this stuff through it's paces. Great job. I truly appreciate the two of you. Susie is bright & articulate and seems like like a take charge person when it counts. Amazing to have a partner like that. I am handicapped now but I think that I may have a couple of adventures left. You continue to inspire me. I truly appreciate you letting me join you on your many trips. Sometimes it almost like I am there. I know it sounds funny... But, thank you anyway. Peace... The old guy. lol

[@Raventommm]

Hi! I have used this pack in Scotland. I can say it is really strong! The handles on the side are actually made so you can carry the pack with 2 soldiers to use it as a transport for wounded men. Warrior assault systems has a ton of pouches you can fit perfectly on the pack. Its also really strong to handle a lot of weight. There are also other backpacks from this brand. You have the little cargo pack, the helmet pack, the pegasus pack and the predator pack. I have them all. I use the pegasus pack for little dayhikes en i started using the predator pack for long hikes... its 45l but you can make it larger with the pouches, the onlu thing that everyone should know is. Only the x300 has a raincover all the other packs dont have one. I asked the company why. They said that military prefer to use drysacks on color orientation. You really should review them... they also can get fitted inside with a lot more and can even carry hole radiosets for military uses. Im in love with this brand!

[@ronaldrose7593]

Hello Luke, this was a great review of a very fine product. I like the pack, a lot. Take care out there and stay healthy. 🤗

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

It's a winner!! I've gotten to the point where if it's over 50-55L it gets to be to much for me. I would buy it. The only thing is the waist belt, I'd like to see the straps pull forward instead. I've had joint injuries that make it difficult for me to pull backwards but I'd still buy it. Thanks Luke.

[@jeffrichards5106]

Awesome looking pack Luke. Like the design and all the features and the O.D. green color and that it's comfortable to carry. Thanks for the heads up, appreciate it!

[@tylerclark1801]

I have a WAS Falcon Chestrig and I love it. Quality material, good stitching, and well designed

[@marjiecleveland]

That's an excellent quality military backpack! I like the dual access points and all the pockets. Thanks for the review!

[@alexanderweaver4838]

Great review, Luke! This is my kind of pack for winter load outs.

[@digitizer101]

This pack reminds me of the REI Mars of 2007 with the molly straps and dual entry through the top and front pocket. However REI decided to go with side mesh for water bottles instead of the large zippered pockets. It was also a bit on the heavy side for backpackers.

[@stevelucier8346]

I would really love to have that backpack. The right color, layout and all the Molle plus. The things I have done with my 5.11 RUSH MOAB 10 utilizing the Molle and storing most everything inside till deployed. The ability to fasten anything to any desired location is awesome. Maybe some day I can get the X300. Never give up on your dreams.

[@Legionnaire7777]

Buy one you won't be disappointed

[@masakeris]

I use it as heavy backpack option for long trips with outside sleepings and I love it! Warrior company about the warranty claims.... Its rampage! I wrote them about one small issue and they sent me new part in days ! love the warrior brand, got holsters from them, plate carrier, backpack... and everything is high grade gear!

[@stormyyoung6344]

Pocket and attachment places for days. That backpacks looks nice.

[@exAirMover]

I used Warrior belt webbing and daysacks for many years with the RAF Reserve and was very happy with their performance. Now hoping to hike the GR20 in Corsica next year. Looking at packs at the moment, the X300 with a few helikon pouches on is on my kit shortlist for that expedition.

[@marcovandenheuvel5225]

I use this pack for two years now. Still working perfect. The 3 "man down" handles are still on it even after abuse. The weight you can take with it is absurd.. 20 kilogram with ease, even after 15 to 20 kilometers... The one thing I mis is a waterpoutch... but this can be added later on..

[@Legionnaire7777]

I always put my water bladder in one of the side pockets, job done.

[@c.boozerboozer4565]

Best pack I've ever seen, gotta get one, great review

[@Legionnaire7777]

They are excellent packs, I have two one for work multicam, and one in coyote for civilian use they are so comfortable and worth the money!

[@MASFATNINJA]

Looks great. Great review and I would suggest that to stop the waist belt from slipping use a rubber band or two to wrap around it.

[@mikelarry88888]

Interesting idea 👍

[@Legionnaire7777]

Excellent gear been using it a long time! You should also check out Crib Gogh also made in England and Bombproof!, These packs always sell out fast as they are excellent quality! Also check out the Warrior assault systems helmet cargo pack and the Crib Gogh patrol raptor and constrictor, and much better quality than mystery ranch etc.

[@pixelfascination]

£200 in the UK. That's a lot of pack for the money. Loved the review Luke.

[@Legionnaire7777]

Very true if this was made by Mystery ranch or Kifaru just imagine the price!

[@lateralus8123]

@1:40 the background is perfect! Gorgeous!

[@LeftySurvival]

I need a hydration connector to hang the bag, a port for the hose and preferably a sleeve to hold it in place. I think I'll stick to my Savotta Jakari M. Otherwise it's a good looking (though as you say heavy) pack...

[@kurtjensen4693]

I love it. You should make a special video on suggestions of what to bring on an overnighter. I think some people tend to bring too much. Myself included! I still can’t figure out how to pack the satellite dish 📡😉

[@landonashby2029]

A lot of this pack reminds me of the ILBE pack used by the US Marines at one time. Seems like it's a level above that in ways. Arguably more complex than need be. Great Review!

[@demonhunter739]

Great review!! Have 3 Eberlestock bags, each one serves it's purpose but I'm really starting to like the X300.

Get one you will not be disappointed! Also check out Crib gogh and Savotta also excellent quality made packs.

[@evanconlon5462]

Interesting pack design that middle back clam shell pocket looks great to store a helmet in during a patrol. The quick release straps aren't to big of an issue as well given that most people wear the belt as well

[@philipgard6762]

Looks like a very interesting pack design, agree on the floating top wish.

[@rustyspoonss]

I use WAS plate carriers and belts I've never had anything fail on me with exception of the "rubberised" inside of the mag pouches, seems to of ripped on mine but the pouches still work fine. Highly recommended company

I like the Osprey style of straps whereby you pull the strap to the front of you and not backwards, it’s more natural

[@Stoney_AKA_James]

Nice pack! Buy a couple of Tri-Glides for the waist belt, they should help prevent it from loosening. Although I dont think that I will be replacing my Eberlestock packs!

[@inthewoodswithbigfoot3941]

Great looking pack! Thanks for sharing! I only wonder if the suspension will open up to fit a "Full sized" feller...

[@JBC_cat]

Looks very nice! You need a howling wolf TOGR patch for that velcro spot! :o

[@barrydneedham]

Nice review, thanks. How does it compare to the other European packs, Fjällräven, Savotta, Varusteleka, etc? All of that MOLLE and those pockets add a lot of weight if you're not going to use all of them. How stable are those side pockets/zippers with pouches attached to them? I could see one, or the other, but both? In addition to your comments, the lack of a hydration port and pocket could be a problem for me.

[@PabloP169]

The weight and excessive molly webbing would be my main gripes.

[@iberiksoderblom]

The packs are very similar to Tasmanian Tiger, that I've used in service for many years.

[@williammccaslin8527]

[@calicojack7029]

I use this pack and it's great, my only criticism is that the side pouches are difficult to use if you've got the main compartment packed full. I use the interior sleeve to hold my gransfors Scandinavian forest axe and it works a treat.

[@paulcrowther5078]

Hi, I intend to get one of these packs and will be using the sleeve for the same purpose as you. While I wait, how long is the sleeve please? Don't want to get an axe too long or too short! Cheers
