What if you sew the pockect where the compresion straps where?
I guess you could, but I’m not a great seamstress so I likely won’t attempt it!🤣
This video was on my feed because big tech knew I bought one a few months ago. I use it while hiking to carry a p365xl, spare mag in main pocket with holster. I cut out the mesh pockets because it snags my finger on the draw. The front pocket holds 2x sof t wides, the hidden slip pocket has a trauma kit with a pair of chest seals, npa, decomp needle, hemostatic and s rolled gauze and small compression bandage. I wear it with the pack belt clipped underneath and have a couple of s biners and paracord going from the top loops to the shoulder pads to help stabilize it.
This is awesome! I’d love to see a pic of your setup if you get a chance!
Could you please tell me how to remove the front strap?
You really just need a sharp scissors or blade to cut it off as close as u can to where it originates on the back panel area. Cutting it off at the front is more forgiving because it originates under the fabric of the front pocket of the bag.
@@Enjoyyourcarry thanks for reply 🫡
Sure thing! Let me know if you end up removing it👍
Very cool, I really like any type of bag mods. It does look cleaner. You can add emergency cash in that front section.
Do you mean the part where the compression straps used to be? I would be worried that cash would fall out, as it does go all the way through to the other side 🤷🏻♀️
@@Enjoyyourcarry Yes. Just add some low profile Velcro to secure it closed.
Good idea!
Agreed! On making your bag your own! Nice
Yes! Sometimes I hesitate because I don’t want to do something and then wish I hadn’t 😉…but other times it’s an easy decision!
Greetings! I"ve watched both your videos - the initial review, as well as this follow up one - on the 5.11 LV6, and I have a question regarding the two newly-created 'pockets' on the front: do they communicate? Would it be possible to stick something through one end and pull it out the other? I am interested to see if an A40 from ASP would fit through it, as it's approximately the same length as the entire bag. Thanks in advance for any input!
Yes! The newly created front pocket area goes all the way through to the opposite side.
Hello man! Thanks for this.
Do you think is good for/it can fit:
Portable Retroconsolle
Kindle/IPAD mini
Moleskine mini notebook
Pen
Sony RX100
Powerbank
Cables
Thanks
The mini without a case will fit but maybe not with one on. I don’t have a retro console or a camera so it’s difficult for me to answer with certainty but I feel like all of that together would be a little tight. Sorry I can’t answer more definitively! Thanks for watching 👍
She is lady not man
Where did you get the sticky panal?
Vanquest!

This brand call 5.11 LV6?
Yes brand is 5.11, the particular bag name is lv6
Will do the same to mine. Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome!
It looks way cleaner. I’m that front slip where compression straps are I just clip pens or a flash light. I have the first version. I want to pick up this 2.0 awesome setup!
Yes! I tried clipping a tactical pen in the front slip and I didn’t love how it looked even though functionally it’s very helpful.
Does your version 1 have the hidden pocket lined with hook and loop like the version 2?
I have an Aer Day sling that I cut a weird-to-me strap/loop!
Sometimes it’s gotta be done!☺️
I was thinking of other pouches I've "undone" and they are the Maxpedition Barnacle (I removed the internal divider) and another passport wallet (generic) that I removed the plastic stiffener. Both were done with a threader removal tool.
@enriquediaz7547 it’s funny u say that because if I sit and think I can actually recall a few things I’ve slightly modded in the past including the Maxpedition neatfreak, ALPAKA tech case regular size, and the 5.11 Moab 6!
Thanks for you tip on Vanquest Sticky Panel 2x7. It fits perfectly👍
Awesome! You’re welcome!
Love the modifications you have done to the bag :) Can you tell me the colour of the bag, is it black of the dark grey variant?
Thanks! This is their iron grey color.
@@Enjoyyourcarry 🙏🏻 thanks!
EXCELLENT VIDEO. THANKS TO YOUR VIDEO I ALSO CUT THEM AND I LIKE MUCH MORE HOW IT SEES, I DID NOT MISS IT.
Thank you! I’m glad it helped you!
Just get 1 LV6 V2.0. It's so amazing
Awesome! What kind of stuff?!
@@Enjoyyourcarry I will replace original belt with CT Mod Sling Laser Cut, so that I can put patch and FreeSize Bottle Holder 🤗
