Anyone have or checkout the MAXPEDITION® OPERATOR™ TACTICAL ATTACHE

[knoxx45]

I’m looking at this because I live in NJ, and work in NYC (I know, I know move to Montana or Alabama or a state that you can actually own a gun… bla…bla…bla). For now that’s just not an option. Anyway, I commute via public transportation and carry a laptop case any way, and also my “survival” gear and gym clothes in a backpack, so I figured, if I could consolidate everything into one bag, it would make my life easier. Plus, I kinda look like a kid going to school with the whole backpack thing. I know that Maxpedition makes good stuff, but I was wondering about the practical usefulness of this bag. I usually don’t carry too much in the way of “survival gear”, so it would be less of a BOB, and more of a laptop case with benefits. What I carry for gear every day is:
Surefire executive
A small first aid kit
A Buck multi-tool
Some power bar type things
A pair of rubber gloves
About 50’ of 550 cord
A compass (don’t know why, I just always have one on me)
Contact case & solution
Sun glasses
Cell phone
Calculator

I do like that you can concealed carry with it because I do have my NJ CCW (my recently deceased uncle was a judge, and signed my app) , so in NJ, when not commuting I like the option of carrying in the bag.

Any thoughts would be great.

Thanks-
Knoxx

It may not scream Gun

But it sure screams "STEAL ME"

I love Maxpedition stuff, guess that's why I'm a dealer, keeps me in my "fix"!

I find if you get the items in a neutral color, like tan/khaki they don't scream "tactical" as much. Yet you still retain all the practical stuff you wanted in the first place.

Hello knoxx45:

Maxpedition stuff is built like a "tank" and will last you forever. I have a tactical attache (will hold the 17" Mac) and it is a real jewel to carry stuff - including a 17" Mac when I need to).

IMHO they absolutely do not shout "gun" at all. They tend to look like a thousand other bags carried by a thousand other guys. Great piece and if you buy one you will never regret it.

They make great products and I have the Condor backpack. However, much of their stuff is a little too Hollywood Tacticool for everyday carry. Unless you are going for a certain "look" - you would probably blend in better sticking with your backpack or something more generic looking.

I would take a look at their MPB since it is a little more discrete looking. I lived a good portion of my life in East Jersey and L.I. and not standing out is a plus.
