Does this pack ride high enough that you could wear a combat belt with mags beneath it?

It actually sits on my waistline. You could adjust it higher to accommodate the belt. My thought is buy one and give it a try. Even on a budget I was able to afford the bag. I recommend that you look the bag over when you get it. I got one with loose threads on it, but Amazon took care of it quick, fast, and in a hurry. Kudos to them. The bag I have now is my EDC bag. Hope it works for ya.

Yes if your of average size, i.e. Not a kid or a little people. It is about as tall as a backpack most kids use as a school bag. There are straps on the bag to use for accessories as well. Great bag for using as a daypack on a hike or for hunting.

Yes that is the belt I was using this with and it held up very securely. I now have it on body armor vest and a different mag pouch on the belt.

I think you could carry your 40 cal in this pack but you would need to have a holster with Velcro to attach inside the large pocket.

I'm 5'8" and had to adjust the shoulder harness down several nitches from stock placement to make it ride high enough. Initially, this pack rode very low and was uncomfortable until properly adjusted. I could be wrong, but it appeared that it would be fine if configured correctly.

No. There is, however, a sort of chest strap that connects the two pack straps at the front. About chest high.

I think it would. My dog is about 55 pounds of muscle and the pack is tightened up almost all the way. I like his pack to ride high.

You can you might have to do some fitting with it. I use mine for hunting so I can carry all my gear on me.

I would agree with TacJ that the rear is narrow enough that a pouch holding 45lbs may be too much. A butt pack such as the maxpedition proteus (small 270 cu in) or sabercat (large 600 cu in) might fit nicely. If I need to carry more, I simply thow my pack over the vest.

No. The one I have at least, for my J-frame, rides high. It is perfect for just behind the strong side hip. Also fits well for cross draw in front of weak side hip. Maybe the holsters for bigger guns hang differently, but the little one is not at all suited for hanging down your leg.

Absolutely! I'm the same height as you only a few more pounds and the holster fits like a dream. The extra mag pouches help balance it out to where you don't even know you have it on. I couldn't have been happier for the purchase of this quality shoulder holster. Get it!....Best to you Brian

I believe it would. The pack I have is US Army issue. I usually wear it under a rucksack. The chest strap I usually leave unlatched.

Yes it can hold all that gear, plus some. When I first came in the Army, I was issued an Alice Pack. You would be surprised with the amount of gear you can fit into one.

The way it was sold it's not low ride. I don't know if there are accessories that can make it such. I wear it on a tactical belt so it sticks out a bit. Written on a standard pant belly IMO it would be close to the body but still allow good draw. Now with a vest, I really don't know. A vest could pretty much obstruct anything I would guess.

Probably, they are deep enough and roomy enough to accept my Desert Eagle 50 AE mags so you could probably carry 4 to 6 single stack Bersa mags in them. The pouches are well made with quality parts.

It should. The pouch should have enough depth and length to carry that mag (or any other pistol mag really).

Just under the shotgun shell attachment. The pockets are velcro so if your mags don't need to be held in, you'd be ok usin that as long as your patches won't fall off or get knocked off my your weapon or brushing up against something.

No. 2 5.56 mags are tight. Personall id go with a molle load bearing vest. You can configure it mission based and a vest is easier to throw on.
