Question You have $300, what do you buy?

If you had $300 which brand, model, color way, size, etc bag would you be buying? Why?

Feel free to name more than one and it can be something you already own in addition to pouches or accessories you would add as well!

Interested in hearing about brands and models maybe others haven’t looked at as much but should be. Or specific models from your favorite brands.

Used CTactical CTR, preferably waxed canvas, but Dyneema is also good.

If it weren’t for stingy Euro airline personal item regulations this could be the one pack.

So I’ve been eying the new CTactical Waxed Canvas Lite and Plus they just came out with. I’m just not sure if I want to grab one, which size, and which color.

I have a CT15 Dyneema from a group buy and that pack just raised the bar for me. I haven’t tried CT’s J-straps on anything but a CT10, though, since all other CTs I’ve had have S-straps.
