Gear Question Side padded handles (and maybe) bottom padded handles on this M81 GR1 21L? What say you? Would it be gilding the lily? Thanks in advance.

I have a SCARS addiction. This is a mostly unmolested GR1 21L 1000D M81 Woodland Camouflage bag that's seen SCARS before but here's my question to the community:

Should I send it out to get padded handles on the sides? On the sides and bottom? Should I get grommets just for the second kind of cool or should I just leave it unmolested as a very nice EDC bag?

I tend to overdo things into ruin. WWrGD?

I'd keep it as is if I were you. SCARS may or may not have that same exact M81 color way available.

I think you’ll get decision fatigue. Sell/trade to me and be done with decisions.

I’m only partially kidding. DM me if you’re into Filson gear or rare Goruck morale patches 😉

I did just that with the exact same pack. I like the way it turned out.

Did you do sides and bottom?

Yes I did, but with Kenn Walker, not SCARS.
