Condor Deployment Bag (Red)

To start, this is not Donna, This is her son.To preface: I am currently an EMT serving in CT. I am an avid camper, hiker, survivalist, scouter and first aid maniac. I did about 2 months of research for a small bag that I wanted to carry all the basic stuff that I was going to bring in with me on ambulance calls so that I didn't have to stuff my pockets full. I purchased the Red version of this bag so the entirety of this review only applies to this particular bag. I cannot speak for any variations that may be found in other colors but for the most part they all seem to be the same.This bag is much smaller than it looks in the picture. It is only about 14-16" long and has a diameter of about 7" when I put everything I carry into it. This bag is NOT made as a primary "first in bag" so if that is what you are expecting then don't look here. its about half the size of a D tank of O2 so no way that's going to fit in there. However, If you are looking for a personal EDC, first in basics bag, first aid bag or something similar than this bag is absolutely wonderful.This is an amazing bag for those looking for something small. I used this during my EMT ride along's before I was certified to carry basic gear into calls. I could fit a full size CPR mask, gauze pads, a small reference book, and any ID tags I needed in the outer pocket. Penlight and pen went in the slots on the side. the penlight stayed nicely but the pen kept falling out because it had a bad clip. In one side pouch i have a 6" Israeli Bandage and on the other side i have a 1st gen SOF tourniquet. In the main pouch I carried my B/P cuff, stethoscope, gloves, face mask, and pulse ox. Overall, I still have room to fit more stuff if I wanted too. Once I get a glucose kit I will most likely throw that in there too. The outer pocket has an inner divider that I use to separate the CPR mask from the Field Guide and ID tags. The divider has a couple of pockets that I used to fit 2x2 gauze pads (I fit 2 or 3 comfortably in each). the main pocket has a mesh divider on one side that I use to keep my PPE (Gloves, face mask) separate from the stethoscope and B/P cuff.In terms of construction this bag is pretty well made. The fabric is tough enough to withstand a beating and it comes very slightly rain resistant. I haven't tried spraying waterproofing anything on it yet but I will try that in the future. The grab handle on the top is very sturdy, if you slack the buckle straps a little you can put a water bottle, glasses, or anything that will fit under it and then tighten the buckles down and they will hold whatever object you have there really well. The D rings on the sides are plenty strong to hold whatever weight you put in this. I've had this bag for a few months now and nothing is showing any signs of wear and tear from the regular use I put it through. All the zippers are fairly heavy duty and i have had no problems so far with any of them. When not in an ambulance I use this as a primary first aid bag and throw it in my car whenever I'm driving.The webbing deserves its own section so that will be here. This bag comes with both ALICE and PALS/MOLLE. I haven't quite managed to figure out the difference between pals and molle but this bags works great with both of them. The ALICE webbing is on the front of the pouch viewable in the thumbnail picture and on each side. I use the front center slot to carry my Leatherman Raptor sheath so that the shears are in line with the rest of the pouch. It fits beautifully. The MOLLE is all the way around the bag. Condor placed it over the alice on the front and sides and there are 4 rows of horizontal MOLLE on the back separated in the middle by about 1". The bag comes with two reinforced snap straps that can be used to either attach the bag to a larger pack, a bike, or anything really, or they can be used to help attach other modular bags to this one. I purchased a New Platoon First Aid Kit FA181 from Elite First Aid (http://elite1staid.com/Products/Kits/FA181.aspx). That bag I use almost specifically for hemorrhage control and I can either use the two straps built in to that bag to secure it to the Condor or I can use the straps on the Condor to attach it. Either way works. The straps the Condor bag comes with are taller than the webbing on the back so the bag may hang a small bit but you can move the straps around to fit your preference.Overall, I would highly recommend this purchase to anyone looking for a small-medium bag to carry stuff in. It is performing high past my expectations to this day.

I'm using this is a first aid/trauma kit for a group at the range. Hand-selected items all fit with ease.

It is a small bag, but can hold quite a bit. I use it as my emergency bag for the car. The construction is great and after a few months no issues. I would like more main compartment divider options, but you cant beat the price!

Some folks seem to struggle knowing the size so I added a note to show the scale. It's a little one.Its exactly what I was looking for, in regard to my purposes. If anything It's over-engineered as a bag this small doesn't usually require this much to reinforce it, but I think if you filled it with something heavy like ammunition, maybe those will come in handy.Because I intend to use it for med supplies, the only thing I could see improving the functionality for me would be if the back strapping were tear-away but I don't require that, and there's plenty of tear-aways on the market.Great quality build. It'll last forever. Recommend but do pay attention to the size - it's a little toughie.

Bag has no Condor hang tags like all the authentic Condor products I purchased previously. Makes me suspect the item is a fake or a return. It's a little smaller than I imagined but suffices as a small fishing tackle kit.

It ends up being a bit cramped in the pockets, especially compared to something like Condor’s Rip Away IFAK pouch. However that does mean the material is plenty robust, it makes good use of the space, and provides ample room/attachment points to form a car trauma kit. The handle and shoulder strap make it especially suitable for that role.

5.11 or maxpedition this bag is not. That being said for the price you can't beat it. Comes with a pretty solid and fully adjustable shoulder strap. It's got tons of molly webbing all over the bag which you may or may not appreciate. Zippers seem sturdy enough. The material is pretty thick but i do wish it had a rubberized interior to offer a bit of waterproofing. The bags a perfect size for a medical kit fro two to three people. Any more then that you'll need to opt for a larger size bag. Also there's a fair amount of over sew (where the excess material from the bags' construction is intrudes on the interior of the pocket making them a bit smaller then they could have been. All in all worth the money.

i bought this bag to use for the first aid kit i keep in my truck. it's just about perfect in its design (more on that). it hold everything i need/want for my fak and nothing i don't. it's not overly big so you don't feel compelled to stuff it with a bunch of stuff you don't need.the only things i wish were a bit better are the opening of the main compartment and the molle. the top opening for the main compartment can be a little cramped if you need to retrieve something quickly. i understand the design since it has pockets on the ends. but i think an opening that is set to one side (front or back) and a zipper that goes all the way to the bottom to allow the main compartment to open completely (sort of like their emt pouch).the other is the molle. it either needs to have at least 2 rows or none at all. for this bag, i think it would be better served having none at all as it really has no need to have any other pouches attached to it.other than those 2 things, it's a good bag.

Hab darin ein kleines Traumakit verstaut ... ein kleines bisschen größer wär nicht schlecht damit eine Israeli-Bandage und ein Tourniquet auch noch leicht einen Platz haben (mit ein bissl quetschen geht es sich aus)Preis ist etwas stolz aber sonst sehr zufrieden =)

I bought this for my son, who is a St.John Ambulance cadet. He did the research for it, and he made a good choice. The bag is made from very high quality materials and is sturdy. The zips and closures all work perfectly, and the bag carries a lot of stuff in a small capacity. For UK customers the bag is about the same size as a rugby ball. The designation MOLLE (pronounced /ˈmɒl.liː/, as in the female name) is an acronym for Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment. It is used to define the current generation of load-bearing equipment and backpacks utilized by a number of NATO armed forces, especially the British Army and the United States Army. All in all, a very good bag and my son is very chuffed with it.

I wish that the photographs included something to scale this against. Was a lot smaller than expected, so wasn't able to fill it with everything I had planned, but was still useable.

la uso como botiquin de primera respuesta y es súper cómodo y duradero
