Let’s start off by saying ‘this isn’t your everyday backpack’; it’s a little over-kill for popping down the park or taking to the gym; it is serious army grade gear, as we discovered when we read that it can hold a 24” rifle…not something you would need in a regular camping weekend with the kids.

The AMP72 (AMP standing for All Mission Pack) is an overnight assignment pack suitable for a few days and nights. It has a main compartment that measures up at 23"H x 12"W x 9"D with a rear compartment of 23”H x 12”W x 2”D, this gives you a 40L of storage. This backpack is Gear Set compatible and features 5.11's innovative and removable HEXGRID (9x9) load bearing system, this gives you a multi-angle load bearing platform which removes restrictions to how you can arrange your gear. The AMP72 has a side opening compartment that holds up to a 24" rifle with MOLLE-based platform, muzzle sleeve and a removable retention strap. There is also a thermoformed ergonomic back panel that has been designed to keep things comfortable, whilst the integrated aluminium back panel frame helps to distribute the weight and protect your back against heavy lifting.

There are four side pockets and one bottom stash pocket, a hydration or laptop rear compartment, internal loop platform panel, mesh org, admin pockets, CCW pocket with loop panel and webbing strap for holster attachment. The main compartment has a full clamshell opening with Quad-Zip zippers. To ensure the bag can handle the tough environments you will find yourself in, the main body is constructed from a fully water-resistant 500D Dobby Nylon main with a 1050D Nylon bottom, whilst the HEXGRID is made from 420D/1000D Cordura Nylon and is also water-resistant. The AMP72 has premium build quality, it is comfortable and with loads of features to aid you in any mission.  RRP £235
