I purchased this pack primarily for search and rescue usage. Hopefully will have the chance to use it as a hunting pack next year; I believe the pack would also make a great doomsday pack (hopefully will never have to use it for that!) I took it out yesterday fully loaded with my SAR gear plus my .308 in the scabbard. It was very comfortable! Also, I never would have noticed but packs actually do make a lot of noise, and the fabric on this pack really is silent. I do wish it came with the rifle butt cover. That would be my only complaint. 10/10. Worth the money & worth supporting the foundation. Can’t wait to haul a quartered mule deer with it!

I decided to pick up this M5 RMEF Team Elk pack in Dry Earth color and absolutely love it. It's my third Eberlestock pack and I intend to buy many more products from them because they are the best on the market in my honest opinion! Customer service is also amazing and has worked with me on a few different times I've needed their assistance. Highly recommend to anyone on the fence between Eberlestock and others out there to go ahead and pull the trigger with Eberlestock, because you will not be disappointed!

I am impressed with the quality of the bag and the versatility of the storage compartments with in the bag. So far I am very happy with this purchase.

Great pack! I love it!

Great pack and has lots of storage. Haven’t taken it out hunting yet but seems great so far!!

Fits my needs for a day pack with the ability to pack out.

This bag is comfortable, holds a lot of gear and is sturdy. I also love the ability to carry my rifle or bow in it

I used my son's backpack on a deer hunt a month ago. I liked it so much that when I got home from my hunt a bought the same backpack. Being able to put my rifle in the backpack was a game changer. I highly recommend this backpack.

So far the bag has been very versatile on my archery hunts and is extremely comfortable.
