[@vanquestgear]

Thanks for such a high review of the Vanquest Mobius and Tolcat bags. You did an outstanding job. Your attention to detail was perfect. I've written down your suggestions from the pros and cons for further consideration. Thanks again, Jeremy @ Vanquest Team

[@gideonstactical]

No problem, thanks for the chance.

[@ssiberian8614]

Vanquest Gear as a woman, I would totally use one of these daily. You should think about making these in some other colors and expand your market! A dark purple or a green

[@mixflip]

I have had a maxpedition jumbo versapack for 5 years....I must have the mobius 2.0 due to the ambidextrous setup, storm shield and ccw setup. love it! I don't go anywhere without my Gopro and gimbal and this might be the man bag to rule them all for me.

[@freddiedorris3788]

Ordered mine last week when they were $74 pre order special , can't wait for it to get here. Thanks for the review , you just made me more glad I ordered it .

[@gideonstactical]

Glad to hear it!!

[@errk25]

Thanks for the great review that helped me decide on the Mobius 2.0. I've been using the Mobius in gray for at least 6 months now as an EDC/lunch bag. I totally love it and it's just the right size for me. I found out that two 16oz water bottles fit perfectly inside the side zippered pouches without taking up any room in the main compartment. It's extremely comfortable with a full load and there's plenty of room for my lunch, EDC tools, first aid kit, power pack, cords, etc. My iPhone 7 in an OtterBox Defender case and my wallet fit perfectly in the top zippered pocket too. It's very well made and still looks like new. I completely recommend it.

[@freddobbs9435]

If u use the MOBIUS for a linch bag u must consume a great deal of food///LOL

[@freddobbs9435]

always a great video,i have the Tolcat 2.0 and absolutely love it, let me say i have no trouble putting a water bottle with a 3 inch diam bottom in the side pockets so that is not a problem and with the shockcord attachment it is firmly held in place... you cannot buy better bags then these 2 vanquest bags..imho, i also like the face the strap on the tolcat does not slip around the shoulder as i carry it on my right shoulder...i had to call Vanquest the other day about a slight problem on another purchase,let me say they took care of it immediatly..I forgot to add you can make that 3 way clasp on the main strap of these bags by trimming the center post slightly that way one can take the bag off with one hand as in other bags..

[@arachnophilegrrl]

Oh man... I need a Möbius now. That is the perfect bag!

[@gideonstactical]

It is a great pack!

[@overlandedc]

Had a hard time deciding between the tolcat and the mobius but ended up getting the mobius, mostly due to your review!

[@kenmarapese9085]

Agreed on 1000 cordura, like the ambidextrous features, looks like a new 550 grip! Nice review.

[@jimmystecher5214]

Thank you for the great in depth review and showing all the details of the bags.

[@Cr0cket20]

I like how Vanquest is always thinking of building the better mouse trap. Great look at the bags. Got me interested.

[@gideonstactical]

Totally agree with! I like companies that think that way. The 500D it the way to go, you can tell a difference.

[@pickledbologna]

awesome video! just what I was looking for. Goodbye Jumbo Versipak Hello Mobious 2.0

[@Screamingtut]

Congrats on the baby dad!!!😍

[@RipCity_Tdub]

Do you like the Tolcat better than the Mountainsmith Rift you reviewed a while back? How would you compare the 2 for everyday use? Thanks & keep up the good work Aaron.

[@gideonstactical]

The rift is great, the tolcat is also. For around town Edc it depends. If you use an iPad or tablet and several books with you everyday, the. The Rift. If it is more small Edc items, the tolcat has better organization for small items.

[@RipCity_Tdub]

+gideonstactical Awesome thanks. I think I'll go with the Tolcat. Will be mostly EDC type items + my firearm. Thanks man.

[@emansuper3448]

Great review of both packs. Perfect as I am about to select a new EDC bag. Cheers

[@USMC-es4yy]

Man what a great and complete review..you actually helped me make a purchasing choice!

[@georgeseriani2482]

Wow! Great review on each of those! Thanks for doing it the way you did one day I want one of those but for my first bag I might just go with a UTG

[@baselstein]

Best review I've seen now you made it difficult to chose. Which one will you choose for shotgun shells and ears muffs?

[@gideonstactical]

The smaller one! Thank for watching

[@ranct1815]

Thanks for such a descriptive video and detailed breakdown of these bags... I've decided which one I will purchase... 👍😃👌

[@jymmycrackcorn]

Excellent video. I stopped carrying one of this style bag but I miss it. I might snatch up that Mobius v2. That looks really worth the money.

[@gideonstactical]

They both are!

[@Barrypful]

Tell me I just ordered the MOBIUS 2.0 VPacker Gear Bag thing is I want an EDC bag but I'm 5-6 thick this bag gonna be too big for me let me know your what you think , great video thanks.

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks for watching. I would say the tolcat would be perfect

[@MABER_FETT]

How does one get a Gideonstactical patch?

[@dandlgoff1235]

I am a fan of Maxpedition and I have 2 Jumbo versipanck, really similar to vanquish,I would say. I would like the opportunity to compare the two personally ;). On a personal note, congratulations for the expectancy to the wife!

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks!

[@Lellobeetle]

Aaron, where do we get your patch?

[@alphabravo41]

Another great review Aaron. Except for the water carrying issues on the Tolcat, both are great overall.

[@RandyLunn]

Ambidextrous is fantastic, especially on long hikes so you can change sides to ease fatigue. Great review. I also would like to see a comparison review of of these bags with the Maxpedition bags.

[@gideonstactical]

I might at some point. Thanks for watching!

[@freddobbs9435]

I believe that TIM THE TACTICAL DEFENDER HAS such videos on u tube

[@SteveSmith-sd5hq]

Sweet looking bag, and awesome job on the review. Is there a place that I can get one of those Gideonstactical patches? I'd love to hang one on my hiking backpack. And also, "No Easy Day" is a really good book.

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks for watching. Non available right now. We did a limited run last year. We may do another soon.

[@ChristianW1975]

Have seen this great review maybe 5-6 times now and finally ordered the Mobius in Wolf grey last night. Really looking forward to receiving it. Keep up the good work, i thoroughly enjoy all your videos ! P.S. could you please allow us to take part in the Give Aways through KZbin aswell and not only Instagram ?

[@gideonstactical]

You have chosen wisely, great pack. I do giveaways on all 3 platforms, youtube, Facebook, and instagram.

[@IanSmith465]

I have both bags, the möbius I use everyday and is just about perfect for my Edc. I use the tolcat mainly as a dad bag :) I would like to them add the top pocket to the tolcat.

[@Erik-sq8nz]

do you have any problems with weight distribution? what I mean is, it on the right side of your back, so does it make you feel like your falling right? creating problems when hiking and when climbing and other skills are performed.

[@gideonstactical]

It wants to naturally hag at 4 o'clock or 8 o'clock depending on the should. No odds weight problems like some other bags I have tried.

[@AyatollahKhomeiniSalleh]

Amazing bags. Love the Mobius. I agree on the 1000D and 500D comparison. 500D would be enough. ☺

[@gideonstactical]

You are beginning to see that with a lot of companies.

[@wheelsgonewild1286]

I lve the Vanquest bags. I have been looking for a good shoulder bag. Because I'm in a wheelchair I have to wear the pack in front.

[@gideonstactical]

These both feel great in the front as well.

[@BOOSTEDLASER]

Fav bag for 2019? Chest or hip/sling (large,about this size)

[@charlesbradley2943]

Excellent review. Thanks for your work.

[@N1ght3d]

You are the man Aaron. Great reviews. I own some Vanquest gear. Love it. (P.S. had to revert to Old Testament, New just wasn't working for me anymore.)

[@mufflerfist]

Great review as always :) Really enjoy all your videos. Would really like to see a review on the Vanquest Javelin 3.0

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks for watching! We just might.

[@mufflerfist]

thanks :)

[@frankwarner970]

Awesome review!! I really like the Mobius 2.0.

[@gideonstactical]

It rocks, thanks for watching

[@bigripper2048]

keep mah glock mags with mah bible in the same pocket. merica.

[@raywalter3992]

AMEN brother!!

[@markanthonyreyes4434]

Good day. I'm planning to buy a new bag for my EDC, my options are 5.11 MOAB 6 and Mobius VPacker 2.0. Based on your experience which one is better? I already watched your review for MOAB 6 and I want to know which one do you prefer the most. Thank you in advance.

[@mdmushrush]

How would you compare these to the Mountainsmith Tour Lumber Pack: Multi-Tool of the Pack World?

[@gideonstactical]

I like these better for around town, but the Tour is much better in the mountains on a hike.

[@GTTAGC]

How many ounce camelbak chute was that? It fit perfect!

[@jordan-it2xf]

great review bro both look like great bags where can I get your patch bro cheers

[@gideonstactical]

We may have some more available soon.

[@michaelreed649]

I loved my tolcat and my Mobius. BUT my mobius stitching completely frayed on the strap cinching down the center of the pack. It gets no real wear and tear so i don't understand why it would fall apart other than low quality control. MOST of the bag is fantastic so I am unsure what is up. I was ignored when I sent my email and photos. I thought Vanquest customer service was better than that. I also thought the quality control was better. The Mobius 2.0 would be on my to buy list but with the frayed strap AND being ignored with my emails, I will have to look elsewhere for my new photography gear. I guess I will have to go back to Maxpedition. At least they don't ignore emails.

[@michaelreed649]

Ironically, I Really need a photo bag and the Mobius 2.0 would be just the right size but I will Not buy from a company that ignores emails. Even a response of "sorry, nothing we can do but we will keep an eye out for a pattern of problems like this" would have been sufficient but ignored? Nope. Not good. Time to find a new gear bag company. :(

[@freddobbs9435]

let me say they dont ignore phone calls, i called them about a minor problem and they delt with it right away..

[@JDMunky]

Finally got to save for mine. Not cheap where I'm from. Replaced my 5.11 Push Pack. This review did it for me. I don't like your channel anymore, it's making me go broke. JUST KIDDING! Great vids. Keep em coming.

[@Screamingtut]

I am in I need a large bag. Loved the video too

[@gideonstactical]

Check out some of their other designs, great stuff.

[@raywalter3992]

is a edc bag like a super duper haversack ??? thanks and blessings on your little American!!

[@gideonstactical]

Thanks my friend

[@raywalter3992]

Your welcome. Blessings and please keep up the good work!!

[@divinefever]

it would be really cool if you could do a review on the finnish ranger knife (sissipuukko)

[@gideonstactical]

I will look into it

[@Erik-sq8nz]

do you have a review on the Benchmade Griptillian?

[@gideonstactical]

Yes a while ago.

[@jeffcronen]

a bible AND a gun! Perfect combination. JEEZE!

[@markcoraa]

I believe he is a minister, which explains both. He needs his bible to minister. However, as a minister he does go into the highways and byways. The side arm is for protection, because like I said he goes into the highways and byways. Many preachers carry both, the spiritual weapon and physical weapon. I don't know him personally, I believe he mentions it in another vid.

[@bernie2bb]

Nice bags, I currently have the Maxpedition Colossus and I would probably prefer the Mobius now LOL. Just because it has the water bottle pouch. Had to buy the water pouch for my bag which just added more to the price :( Oh well... maybe I will one day switch over :)

[@gideonstactical]

eBay. Sell the old to get the new

[@carlhaugland297]

It would be cool to see a vs on this and the maxpedition wolf spur :)

[@gideonstactical]

We just might at some point.

[@alittleolder]

Those bags are nice but I carry my EDC Bag literally everywhere I go and I can't see that happening with those. I have tried a similar one but it was way too big for real EDC use.

[@gideonstactical]

I carry the tolcat everywhere not bad at all

[@alittleolder]

Nice. OK, I'll try that. Thanks! Because currently I use sort of a messenger bag and you can't really sort your stuff in there.

[@eccoshoe1]

i use a tolcat daily for one yr, but find i can use more space so i will sell it and buy the mobius, both great bags,

[@edctvbytommyviola9119]

Hey Pal how are doing

[@ThePreparedWanderer]

Wonderful review

[@eccoshoe1]

I have a tolcat i use daily but find i need a little bigger bag, so i will sell the tolcat and pick up the mobius, i just cant use them both, but they are very good well thought out bags, ad very comfy to load and carry...

[@dwood721]

Will either one of these fit a full size iPad?

[@Elmsmore]

Ipad pro no Ipad yes perfectly. On the Mobius which is the one I have.

[@Coton202]

Thanks for the great review

[@briana19711]

SWEET! IM GETTING THIS BAG...

[@madelaineguilfoyle191]

Have to agree with Michael Reed's comments below. Fantastic kit but very poor response from the company itself. Time to find another supplier.

[@kurdphoenix8361]

Ur gaining weight man

[@Ricky-ez2nh]

Vanquest does a poor job at keeping their items in stock, frequently out of the color I want. I've recently gone with Hazard 4's grayman bags and so far impressed. They look better and are durable. And more reasonably priced.

[@muhonen684]

What's in Your EDC?

[@gideonstactical]

I will be doing an update soon.

[@westfromthewest]

Awesome, way to shout out to God, I bet you find out in the end that your little decision to rep the Bible starts someone on path to salvation. People trust your reviews, even a little leaven can get the whole lump

[@gideonstactical]

Amen my friend, thanks for the encouragement!

[@bbking7942]

hey gideon me and maybe other viewer's would like to see a benchmade Adamas run a gauntlet review in comparison to the Gerber strong arm. and stand alone (other viewer's please comment if you would also like to see that) thanks gideonstactical

[@gummybear41283]

[@AndrewSiemer]

Some of the best people I served with were devout believers fighting for their country!

[@tjzulu1]

The water bottle pockets just about negate the usefulness of the zipper pockets when carrying a 32 oz. bottle...and bro...tone down the hand gestures a lot!! They take away from whay you're saying and you're a good speaker infront of the camera!! Great review though!!

[@freddobbs9435]

They realy dont take away room, as the vanquest side pockets are gusseted and protrude out instead of toward the inner main pocket...thus no loss in room on the large pocket

[@doohantallywhack8267]

I have to agree with Zulu, the main compartment is reduced significantly when you place a water 32 oz bottle in there and the side pocket is greatly limited also. I like the pouch but you might as well have true bottle holders unzip instead of having the system it has. Once you start filling this bag with contents like your lunch and a bottle of basic first aid supplies it becomes to crowded to fit any other items. it needs to have a deeper main pouch and a larger upper lined pouch to fit say iPhone 6S or other newer larger devices. I want to like this bag I really do but for the price and space provided it is not worth it.

[@fatcuffy]

Isn't it amazing how radical Christians can always manage to bring everything back to telling others about their faith. This is a review (and a really good one at that) of a BAG. That's it. It's a great bag. But that's not enough for the reviewer... no, he chooses to tell us twice that he is carrying Christian books (alongside his firearm and spare mags). If you want to make a video that professes your faith, then great - that's your right. But please, if you're going to post a review on mil-spec gear - do you really need to tell us about your faith? Fantastic and comprehensive video otherwise.
