bvanetten Report post Posted October 19, 2015 I've been running a G2 Pointman for a few years now. Great pack. I've yet to find it's breaking point, but it has found mine! Had 80lbs of elk in it a couple of weeks ago. The pack took it like a champ but it was not comfortable. It will do 60 lbs all day long comfortably though. I was entering into the weight range for needing a pack frame. I've actually been thinking of selling it and getting a Kifaru Duplex or Bikini frame setup. Still on the fence though. I really like this pack. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bvanetten Report post Posted October 19, 2015 Forgot to add, if you get one buy the gun bearer for it. That's probably the best $30 I've ever spent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HuntHarder Report post Posted October 19, 2015 I run a duplex with a mountain rambler, and also have a DT3. I love the way it fits. Super comfortable pack, even under extreme weight. Buy With confidence. Any questions call Aaron @ Kifaru. He is very informative and will not blow smoke up your arse. PM if you need his cell #. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heat Report post Posted October 20, 2015 I have owned 3 different Kifaru packs. Currently own two, a Late Season which is the same as the Pointman mentioned above except a hunting version instead of Military. Use it for prettymuch everything but is really good as a daypack that can carry meat to the truck or camp. I used mine to carry the bone in quarters plus backstraps and tenderloins from a Kaibab doe just recently. Solid! I also have a Duplex frame that I use with a Cargo Panel for heavy and awkward loads. Buy once, cry once! Get a Kifaru. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jcubed Report post Posted October 22, 2015 I have a couple of the packs, a 6-man tipi and a medium stove and the gun bearer. Hands down great gear. I have had lots of weight in my kifaru packs and the weight rides like a dream. As another poster stated, the gun bearer is an AMAZING piece of kit and priceless when hiking in steep, difficult terrain. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
