Customers have loved our Gunslinger backpacks. A little pack with a great big scabbard can do some surprising things. Like hide a great big gun.

We've now taken all of the outstanding features of the Gunslinger and built them into a new pack that is going to be pretty hard to beat. The new GS05 has a framesheet, which gives it a firmer foundation for carrying weight, as well as a fully adjustable shoulder harness. So you can really make it fit you. Among the many improvements on the pack are #10 zippers, a high visibility interior, larger top-cover compartment, removable hip belt, drain holes and cleanout zipper for the scabbard, clips to hold the scabbard up inside the pack, a long front vertical strap with a Flex Chassis at its base, and a nifty new removable top cover which lets you completely enclose your gun.

You can buy the pack with or without our new top cover. It uses the same "control clips" that are used to keep things corralled in the scabbard on the Gunslinger pack. To attach the cover, you simply point the control clips upward and engage them into the matched buckles on the cover. It works well and it's simple, which is just the way we like it.

You'll also notice copious amounts of new webbing attachments. After building our military and law enforcement packs with these panels, we realized that they would also be great for hunters. For attaching auxiliary compartments for things like range finders or binoculars, you can use the webbing matrix on the pack. (See our Accessories page for our high quality padded accessory compartments, or you can use any PALS/MOLLE-style accessory).

If you're looking for a really nice hunting daypack that can carry a gun or combinations of guns and fishing rods in its scabbard, and carries a bow with its external compression straps, this pack should serve you very well
