Best gear Bag you own for CAP or other

[Persona non grata]

What the best gear bag you have owned or currently own? Do you use it for CAP or other type duties?

Here I go....

S.OC BOB from MCSS, purchased 6 years ago and still in perfect condition.

5.11 24 HR Bag &72, I use the 24 hr as a station bag and the 72 hr for deployment.

I used an old fashioned A-bag for the longest time for work then switched to a Blackhawk Raptor pack.  Went to to the GCSS pack in 09 and now I bought a SOC BOB and we'll see how it holds up.

I went from a S.O.C from MCSS to a 5.1124hr back pack and I am never looking back.

Cheap and Effective is not Durable
Effective and Durable is not Cheap.

Unless you scour ebay.  You can get a good alice pack fairly cheaply.  but Your Mileage May Vary (YMMV)

Here is one:  http://www.ebay.com/itm/ARMY-Large-ALICE-PACK-USED-Frame-Straps-Pad-GOOD-complete-/190744519574?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2c69426396

Alice equipment is sturdy, but finding pouches and other items for it is getting increasing harder to find. For now, it can still be found, and fairly cheap, but as time progresses, it will get harder and harder to find. With the current items being MOLLE,  they are easier to find, and as I have used both, both in CAP and the Army, I have found MOLLE equipment much more comfortable and easier to use. To each his own though.

You can use ALICE clips to attach a lot of non-ALICE gear to the ALICE system. The clips are widely available.

Just expect to pay more for molle and it also depends on color.  Multicam is about double of other colors.

The back end of the vehicle I'm in, and the table that is designated "mine" at Mission Base.

High Sierra makes a big red rolling duffel that serves as home to my gear. It's pricey but good stuff.

Used to have one of the cloth flight "foot lockers"  I could pack all my stuff and the kitchen sink.

Just a fair warning that everything I have ever purchased from cheaper than dirt has been defective and useless.   Just FYI

All my ammo worked as intended, but I never bought any gear so YMMV.

My old AF mobility bag does the trick.
