Rucker - Long Range

Absolutely Legit!

I’ve only had it out once so far due to weather in Northern California, but first impressions matter, and this thing delivers. Storage and layout are what stood out immediately. I run my packs with purpose—radios, medical, food, and mission-essential gear—so organization isn’t optional. This Long-Range pack is built with that in mind. Everything has a place, and it’s laid out in a way that actually makes sense. Build quality is exactly what you’d expect. Durable, well-constructed, and clearly designed for real use, not just looks. For context, I’ve spent 20 years with a large California fire agency and 10 years working as a SWAT paramedic. I depend on my gear in environments where failure isn’t acceptable. I’m selective about what I use, and this pack meets the standard. I’ll be putting it through real use, but based on what I’ve seen so far, I’ll be buying more for my family. Good work and thank you for everything you guys do.

Great Quality!

Loving getting started with my Long Range Rucker! The fit is perfect, and the build quality is very rugged. I've added an optional hip belt and rain fly as I'm using it to train up for a 72-mile section backpacking trip this spring. I currently have the 10- and 20-lb standard plate and the 30-lb long plate, but may add the 45-lb long and 30-lb standard. My backpack will be at around 44 lbs base weight with about another 20 lbs of consumables for the hike.

Quality seems to be very good - anxious to get this piece of kit in my program
