The Direct Action Gear Dragon Egg Mk II Backpack is a lightweight and adaptable backpack designed for military and law enforcement professionals. This medium-sized pack is available in a variety of camouflage and solid colors, making it an excellent choice for hunters and outdoor enthusiasts. The Dragon Egg Mk II is also available in PenCott SnowDrift™ for winter activities, making it a versatile option for all seasons. Its low-profile design makes it perfect for everyday carry (EDC), whether you need a heavy-duty MOLLE backpack for your laptop, tablet, hydration bladder, or a reliable base for your bug-out bag (BoB).
The Dragon Egg Mk II offers a 25+ liter capacity, suitable for short patrol duties or as a larger EDC pack. It features three zippered compartments, including a main compartment with an internal hydration sleeve and mesh pocket, and a rear pocket with a padded sleeve for a 15” laptop or multiband radio devices. The front pocket includes a zippered mesh pocket and an internal organizer for small essentials. The redesigned side pockets can expand to fit a standard U.S. canteen or a 1-liter Nalgene water bottle. Additional features include a soft velour-lined pocket for glasses or a cell phone, daisy chain webbing for attaching extra gear, and a laser-cut MOLLE/PALS system for modularity. The egg shape of the pack ensures a smaller height and width, making it more comfortable to wear with belt kits or ballistic vests. The suspension system includes comfortable shoulder straps, an internal stiffener, and a detachable waistbelt. Made from durable 500D Cordura® nylon fabric with a water-resistant coating, the pack also features the innovative Combat Vent System® for enhanced comfort and air circulation.

The product was as expected. Was shipped by UPS. Wasr not aware that the package was not delivered home, but to a collection point until I checked the app for UPS. No other feedback than that, so you have to keep an eye on the status in the app. It could have been made more clear in the ordering process so that you reduce the risk of packages not being picked up on time.

So far so good. Just unpacked it haven’t taken it out for a spin yet.

I have only used the backpack twice, but already based on those experiences, I can say that the backpack is perfect for my needs. There is a surprisingly large amount of space in the backpack, and its ingenious storage places help things stay in place and easy to find. The straps are easy to adjust according to your measurements and the purpose of use. I give an extra plus for the gray color.

Strong and rigid bag. Large pockets sufficient to accompany during a day hike. Multiple, well-designed interior storage spaces. Thick straps and back well cushioned by two bands which allow good ventilation. Lots of options for attaching gear to the outside of the bag. Camouflage look with the most beautiful effect.
Smaller, narrower, than i expected but good quality bag.
