Assault bags vs. EMS bags what are the variables?

5.11 backpacks for saleThere are a great many things that can make or break a bag for a job.   Many of our customers come in here and open up backpacks or bags to see what is sewn on the inside.   Some bags have open pouches while others have ID holders, Molle pouches or various zippered or strapped compartments.   I’m not big on attaching too much Molle gear to my bags, probable the only thing I attach to my bags are the higher visibility medical pouches.   I have some smaller plaster First Aid pouches but the nylon quick detach medical pouches are a better and more professional option.  We sell an EMT bag that is just a bright orange color with the medical logo but they are just that, a bag with no medical supplies.  A good folder for scissors or bandages is probable the best thing for this setup.

The Rush messenger bags are very unique and not like my Elite Survival Systems bags or my Blackhawk bags.   The Rush 72 are a very popular 5.11 backpacks for sale in our showroom and online.    These have a unique fold out webbed attachment and many molle and compartments.   Emergency blankets and quick clot packages can go in these and even though they kind of look like military backpacks, they are extremely popular with the EMT’s that get hired in our area.   These bags are kind of bulky and if you want a smaller bag, something that just goes over your shoulder, check out some of the smaller Rush 24 bags.
