From another thread I see that there seems to be quite a few folks that love their Jumbos as much as I do. Since my organizational skills suck and I'm fairly new to this I'm going to ask a favor.

Show us your Versipack Jumbos and what's in them please? Lists & pics would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Kirk

I still had room for daily lunch items and beverage.

The lastest 'possibility setup' for the Jumbo Versipack:

It it heeaavy in this configuration, but it would work.

And packing the cat provides both a source of heat, nutrition, and can be worn as a "daniel boone" type of hat if needed - just kidding :) , don't you cat people get all uppity :)

Just a "little" levity to start the weekend.

Here's an old snap of mine with some exterior attachments:

NICE setups ! man i wish we CDN's were allowed to carry handguns. The Jumbo is the perfect "head out into the woods with a handgun and go target shooting" bag

edit: i found a great review here: JUMBO

Amazing folks!! More please? :D

I just know there's a bunch of folks out there with these packed "just right".
 
Anyone else? Please? :D

I just know there's alot of you out there that can help out with this thread and give alot of good ideas to not just myself but possibly a bunch of other folks.
 
Anyone else?

Sorry, it just surprises me that there's not more people posting to this thread when the Jumbo is so popular.

I have before, maybe I'll look again. The problem over there is that alot of what's packed over there wouldn't normally be packed by folks over here.

While some do pack them for outdoors, I've also seen alot of them packed down with all kinds of electronics devices and such.

I was hoping to narrow the audience down to cover the W&SS way of thinking.
