camelback question

[WD40]

Brigade Quartermaster has a pack called the Hump by spec-ops. It holds a camelback reservoir and attaches to web gear(something I thought I was done w/23 years ago but have been using on/off for 5 or 6 years).Does anyone have experience with this product.Is it a quality item?.........William

Well, I dont have any experience with the "Hump" but I do use a BHI raptor pack and a spec-ops daypack when out in the field. I have found that when attached to a LBV they do not ride or wear very well when loaded. I find its just easier to lengthen out the pack straps and wear them over the LBV. A couple of my Jr NCOs have CamelBak Mules & Hawgs and they seem to work well but these are faily small packs. What I do is use the raptor with my complete Camelbak (bladder & carrier) inside the pack and wear it over my LBV. When we get to the AA I attach the CB to my LBV, ground the pack and put anything else I need in a butt pack.
