I wrote quite a lengthy review for this bag back in 2010 when I first got it from Amazon, but my old review seems to have disappeared for some odd reason. Anyway, since I've been pretty happy with this product, I thought I should just write another review again to help others who might be thinking of getting this as a laptop bag, which is what I'm using mine for.For starters, I got this specifically for an 11.6" laptop that I carry around for work with me wherever I go. Even though I liked some of the features on the My main reason for purchasing this was because I work part time in an office environment and thought it was about time I have a briefcase. I didn't want any old laptop case or anything, it had to be tacticool and this definitely fit the bill. Maxpedition products are always high quality and you get what you pay for.The Good-The material is excellent. I think Maxpedition's website says it is made of 1000 denier nylon which is super tough. The handle, shoulder pad, and the bottom of the bag have a sort of grippy rubbery coating on it. Some of the pictures show the bag having only a velcro strap to hold the handles together but I think that was an old design.-The bag comes with a huge velcro panel in the main compartment that comes with a concealed carry pistol holster and elastic retention mag holsters. Its super hard to get a concealed carry permit where I live so I use them to hold other things. On the backside of the velcro panel are small pockets.-The D ring on the front acts like a pull tab to open another large but flat pocket on the bag. I imagine this is where your pistol would go if you concealed carry. I just use it to hold smaller objects I don't want to lose in the main compartment.-Additionally there are two loop...type...thingies...that are supposed to hold a large flashlight or something equally long and cylindrical. I use it to hold my SOG tomahawk sometimes or a small umbrella.-The zipper pulls are all 550 cord and the retention straps for the water bottle holster and radio holster are both made out of a durable bungee type material.The Okay-The velcro real estate on the front is pretty neat but kind of an awkward size. I think its just big enough for two name tapes, so I guess one for your name and another for your branch if you're into that. I put novelty patches on it.The Bad-Someone else mentioned that the D rings and the clips for the shoulder strap are now all made out of plastic and this is true for my bag too. Although it does seem to be a pretty durable plastic. If they were aluminum or something else that was not prone to rust that would pretty much be the only improvement that could be made to this bag.This is a good bag with many compartments. I have been using a laptop backpack and wanted something different. The Maxpedition bag is on the smaller end of a work bag. I no longer carry a laptop but always have my iPad and this works out great for that. The several different outside pockets give many options for how you close to load it. I do a lot of work in a vehicle and this is a great size for the paperwork and items I carry on my 12 hour shifts. There is no doubt this bag is going to last, the thick material and stitching are top of the line. I choose the green one only because it was about half the cost of the other color bags. The green is darker than the picture and I am grateful for that. I am happy with the color and would probally be my first choice after seeing the bag in person. All the outside pockets flaps are secured with Velcro. There is an additional “pocket” that is designed to hold a firearm if you choose to carry one. I happy with this bag and it’s nice not looking like I’m heading to the school bus stop like I did with my old laptop backpack.Indistruttibile. Comprata con doppia finalità, in un primo tempo come borsa per gli oggetti del bambino piccolo ed ora come borsa da tiro. Ancora perfetta. Le tante tasche permettono di riporre gli oggetti dove si vuole. Spazio specifico per pistola, rimane ancora spazio oltre al materiale per il poligono.
