My TAD Gear pack has served me well over the past 10 years or so but I wanted something with a little more space and organization. The 5.11 Tactical Rush 24 fits the bill perfectly.
The Rush 24 has about 200 more cubic inches of space and many more pockets for organization, while keeping the hydration pouch. It of course has the ability to attach molle accessories as well as a couple velcro areas for nametapes and morale patches.
Overall, it's a great bag. It suits my needs, is tough and handles everything well. The only thing I miss is the straps on top of and below the bag. They were very convenient on the Tad Gear bag, but something I've learned to live without. The extra space in the Rush 24 almost makes up for it.
Stay tuned for more updates as I take this into the field and see how it really performs and holds up.
Out here.
Update 8/30/18
Well the Rush 24 survived a deployment, numerous work and hiking trips, and a 3 day trip to Vegas. I packed light for Vegas and was able to get all of my clothes, shoes and toiletries in the bag.
The many different pockets really help organization, and the color doesn't yell out "tactical" as much as some other bags.
So far, no rips, tears or even errant strings. This is a definite upgrade to the TAD Gear bag and am very happy I made the switch.
