Review: Perfect..... - Typical Maxpedition quality bag. This bag is perfect for what it is, too many reviews complaining about things that this bag isn't. The zippers will break in, the outside pockets are sleeves, not meant to stuff 20 oz water bottles in. The straps are what they are, I only use one anyway. Stylish, durable, covert and functional!
Review: It's worth it, its excellent - I was worried abut spending so much on a backpack but after about a week I am so glad I did. It's excellent. I see the reviews about zippers and bottle storage, and there is some truth to the bottle storage issue, it makes it difficult to through a last minute can or shake into the pocket if the main compartment is full, that being said, I don't see it as an issue enough to rate it poorly. I am in school so I toss a couple water bottles into the main compartment with all the other stuff. The only thing I don't absolutely love is how the CCW compartment is between the laptop sleeve and my back, there is quite a lump of pressure in my back when the laptop is in. I wish those were reversed in placement. I love the laptops sleeve, and could see potential use of slipping a steel plate or kevlar if someone was interested. I bought the 23L by mistake, thought I was getting the 27. I am very happy with the 23, it does all I want and it's in a tight, slick package. I'm not sure the purpose of the magnet wings on the main compartment, but it's not in the way. It's a great bag, I am really happy with it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will it fit a S/W Governor?**
A: Not definitive, but I will give a probable yes.  I have a g43 - there is easily 2 inches of length  extra to accommodate your s/w.  The governor's extra width is no problem either.  Essentially the entire back area of the compartment is available - the added size of your S/W may push out some other items, but will fit in there pretty easily.

**Q: Does the 23L have side zippered pockets or waterbottle holders?**
A: Both

**Q: which are the correct dimensions, there are two?**
A: You should check Maxpedition’s site for the official dimensions. I found them to be consistent when I bought mine.

**Q: Is it tsa compliant?**
A: Yes! I’ve taken this bag on many trips through many airports.

Typical Maxpedition quality bag. This bag is perfect for what it is, too many reviews complaining about things that this bag isn't. The zippers will break in, the outside pockets are sleeves, not meant to stuff 20 oz water bottles in. The straps are what they are, I only use one anyway. Stylish, durable, covert and functional!

### ⭐⭐⭐ Good bag, but..... (UPDATE)
*by A***R on November 5, 2018*

This is my second Maxpedition bag, my first being my well-worn and trusty Gearslinger. The quality of construction is top-notch as always but I have a few issues with this bag. Keep in mind I've only had it a few days so far. Pros: Top quality construction. Well thought-out storage. (UPDATE) Used everyday, very durable materials and construction. Good looking bag for work. Cons: The main compartment zippers do not open or close well. The way the pulls are arranged they force the sliders at such an angle that they don't travel smoothly over the elements. They work OK when the bag is stuffed full, if it's empty you just collapse the bag onto itself when you pull the tabs, but the zippers don't open. It needs pulls that keep the slider in line with the elements. The bottom line is it's not quick and smooth to open. I'm hoping this gets a little better with time, but I doubt it will. (UPDATE) Zippers still suck. I'm used to them but they don't open well at all. The shoulder straps are spread too far apart. I'm 6' and have fairly broad shoulders, but unless I have the sternum strap closed and cinched tight the straps start to ride off of my shoulders. I hate to use the sternum strap for general use but really don't have a choice. (UPDATE) Not as bad as I thought. I think my slick North Face down coat was mostly the issue. (UPDATE) The water bottle holder doesn't fit a water bottle (see the pic). I had to jam this bottle in HARD, and it just slides out when the bag is laid down. All-in-all a great bag, but my last bag set the bar pretty high and this one doesn't get there. (UPDATE) Having seem one now first hand, I wish I would have gotten the GORUCK GR1 instead.
