Hazard4 Rocket ’17

The Hazard4 Rocket ’17.

Being jammed in confined spaces for hours is an unfortunate part of the business for many professionals. Whether it’s a military unit in an a.p.c., a pilot in a cockpit, drivers in a HumVee, or a journalist in the back of a goat truck, they all have to bring their gear. And they all may need to ‘relocate’ in a hurry. This is the environment for which the Hazard4 Evac line of sling packs has been geared. They are slim shaped to be easily manoeuvred in crowds, or stored in vehicles/lockers, and are quick to take on or off. They are also ambidextrous, and unlike others in this class, are actually comfortable on the shoulder; The bottom strap clips from either the right or left lower corner and the padded section realigns itself ergonomically in the correct body-hugging direction. The bag can be rotated to the chest for on-the-go access, and all pockets are designed to face the user in this mode on either the right or left side. One-strap-carry also makes shouldering a long-gun comfortable – unlike a backpack.

 

Differences from the classic Rocket:

• Thermoformed, semi-hard case/cap in front

 

• Molle cutouts on the larger front velcro-patch field

 

• New roto-locking side-release buckle (can be used with thick gloves)
