Just ordered this bag. I was looking at a 5.11 rush 24, or a first tactical specialist 1 day. When I couldn’t get the 1 day in black from a website I use, I saw the tactix half day. I think a 1 day pack would be too big, and the half day specialist was too small. But the half day tactix is in between the specialist and the 1 day packs. Tactix is also the better quality series in every way. I plan to use mine for EDC, travel, and rucking, so I got the waist belt to go along with it. I usually ruck with 30-50lbs. I wanted a bag that could do it all. I’m so happy with this purchase!

As long as you don't fill it to the seams you can carry it on the plane with you. Keep it up brother, love the content.

Your review - which is pretty much the only one of this pack currently on KZitem - convinced me to get mine. Should arrive in 2 days. I already have the Rush MOAB 10 and 72 but I wanted something in between, and was torn between the Tactix 0.5 and the Dragon Egg. It seems that the Tactix is slightly better designed. The side handles pretty much sealed the deal for me.

I got it at the military exchange on the Army National Guard base locally. The price was right and I could not do any better for the price. The only thing I don't like is having to carry my sleeping bag and bed liner on the outside of the bag. I am going to get a tarp and good survival blanket to go inside and don't weigh much.

My only problem with the 1 day is that it's a little too big for an EDC so I've been using it as a BOB, so this half day looks like a great EDC pack.

NOOO, I really wanted to buy one of these bags but they don't ship to Australia :( OK, so I might be able to get one via their UK store but OMG, they have just switched the $ for British Pounds, meaning it makes them INCREDIBLY expensive and quite a ripoff for anyone outside of the US. OK, last update, I found a supplier in Australia but the half day pack costs $230 which isnt cheap but at least this one looks of quality. Do you think its worth $220 or could you recommend something else, perhaps a global brand?
