I bought this ruck to use with my sniper unit and hunting. I'm completely blown away by the modularity and the different ways you could configure this American dream. I knew I was buying a nice ruck though I had no idea how versatile the Operator was until I got my hands on it. It's a ground-force dream, whatever your mos and load-outs are I couldn't think of a better ruck for missions that also goes hand and hand with hunting. I recently did a 45lb 3-mile pack test for Wildland fire and got the lowest time in the company with sub 9min miles and it felt like nothing was on my back. I've always been okay with the Army-issued Molle rucks though this ruck makes those look and feel archaic. I Wish Multi-cam was in stock when I got it, the desert tan is a gorgeous rich color though. Do not hesitate and just buy it, stop looking around. Thank you Eberlestock for providing such an amazing product for service members making the toughest job in the world just a little bit easier.

This this is straight awesome. I loaded close to 60 lbs of crap in it and it felt like its was floating. Highly recommend this pack

Eberlestock is simply the best product out there...don't compromise...buy it!

The operator is great

This thing is perfect for my competition shooting sports. I can fit everything in this bag without having to carry multiple bags.

The only problem is I wish it was still being made

With regard to the possible types of use, designed absolutely perfectly to the last detail, excellently made of first-class materials, the best I have ever had the opportunity to use.
