    I think the Redz Flex Tech Omni Pack (holds pods 4 horizontally) is the best I've ever used. It does not hold a lot of paint (150 rd tubes x 4 = 600) but is extremely comfortable and there is no noisy velcro tab to rip open to get at your paint; fast, easy access. Also this pack is low profile, not bulky at all, and you can use Redz suspender straps with this to help further distribute the weight.

      I love the NXe and Dye packs, but if you're tight on cash I'd look into the Mantis packs or Ronin Stealth packs.

        Mantis Pro Pack Here!

        I Mantis Pro Pack 3+2. It's got the regular velcro belt but has the bodybuilder-type secondary set of velcro adjusters. So I can loosen it up between games and catch my breath

          I've been using redz for as long as I've been playing. I've always sworn buy them but the belt always seem to give out quickly and loose it elasticity. I had to replace mine once a year. I recently picked up an Empire pack and that thing spanks redz pretty well. The belt is thick and sturdy and it uses a nylon overbelt to cinch everything in place. It's bulletproof and uses the elastic bands to help eject the pods similiar to the way the Extreme Rage packs did.

            i have an extreme rage pack AND I LOVE IT the only reason i'd sell it is to get another in a different size.

              I've got a JT "Pro Harness", and its GREAT for me. I'm a back/mid player, and if I'm playing mid I remove sleeves, if I'm playing back I add my sleeves. That way I get the best amount of weight to carry. It makes my game flow better, and I can move faster accordingly.

                If you need another suggestion: I own a Rase Turtle 3-"pot"(as stated on action village) pack, and it is very very good. It has a thick velcro belt with a secondary velcro belt if you feel the need to loosen it quickly with out taking it off for whatever reason. I've accually forgotten that I was even wearing it, that's the comfort you'll get. 150 rd pods fit well and come out easily. I got mine for around 30 bucks, great buy.

                  I use a Jacko 3 pod for rec play and a 3A 5+4 for scenario games. The Jacko has held up for three years with minimal wear. The 3A is a good pack, not great, that I paid 14.00 for on EBay. Both have nice wide belts and the 3A has a seperate lumbar reinforcement.

                          REDZ and 32 Degrees knock off

                          Hey,

                          I am a huge fan of Redz packs. I use a 3.2 and a 2.1 Redz. They are a little pricey but worth it IMO. 32 Degrees makes a great knock off of the Redz Pack and belt that is a lot less expensive. You may want to check into one of those. One of my team mates got the 32 Degrees belt and pack for $30.00. Not bad when the same set up by Redz is around $60.00.

                            I second this. These things are tight, low profile, inexepensive (less than a redz), and dont move when you run, at all. Second choice would be a redz personally...but they dont come cheap (except used or on ebay). Good luck

                                M-pack

                                M-Pack is much, much better than Redz. Much more comfortable.

                                It's also made in the US if that matters to you.
