Large Range Bag, Digital Camo Review
I purchased the large version of this bag. I was attracted by the icons for most of the many pouches and the very large center compartment. Once I started to transfer gear from my 10 year old bag, I discovered some GPS fabrication short cuts that will cause a heavily loaded GPS bag to prematurely fail:1) The shoulder strap does not wrap around the bottom of the bag to support a heavy load. It is stitched to the top of the bag where it will tear out after a while. If you don't use the shoulder strap - no big deal.
2) The stiffener in the bottom of the large center compartment is thin (relative to my old bag) and easily flexes when heavy odd shaped items are loaded in the center compartment causing the bottom of the bag to be uneven. Easy to offset by inserting some stiffer material.
3) The bottom of the bag lacks abrasion resistant material found on most other range bags (e.g., plastic feet or strips) to protect the cloth bottom particularly when the bottom is not flat because of a heavy load (see #2 above). This oversight could probably be corrected as well.
4) The cloth used to make the bag seems thinner than that used on my old bag.
Also, Shooting glasses in a case are too big to fit in the eyeglasses pouch.
I think the GPS Wild About Shooting bags as constructed would be great at about half the price The icons are a big attention grabber. At $100+ I would have ignored the bag without the icons, but I needed a replacement bag* and the store only had the GPS products.
*Never use your range bag as a shooting rest when firing a large caliber magnum revolver.
