Mayflower's 24 Hour Assault Pack

Here's a sneak peak of a prototype of Mayflower Research and Consulting's new 24 Hr. Assault Pack. This is Mayflower's first push into the pack market. Based on their other products, it'll be bomber tough, light and free of useless features. It has a 100 oz. hydration reservoir sleeve, removable shoulder straps and can be mounted directly to your armor carrier or via the SwiftClip system. It will be available in the next 60-90 days. Mayflower says the production version won't have black zippers. No word on price, yet.
