Kifaru Busts Out New Packs and New Site

Kifaru deployed a new line of packs featuring their Armor Grip system. The system, found on the brand new AG1, 4000 cubes, and AG2, 6500 cubes, is a set of pads that roll out to create a space that cradles your back armor plate. When not in use, the pads lay flat across the back and don't interfere with the fit or function of the pack's suspension in any way. Pretty cool.

Most of the other packs in the Kifaru line have gotten some upgrades, too. The EMR and MMR have both gotten a new frame attachment system, more attachment points for external loads, new lumbar pad with PackLock grip panels that hold the pack in place.

Lots to look at as they continue to update the site at www.kifaru.net.
