I've recently come to the conclusion after several exercises and talks with my CoC that I intend to not deploy with the CTS ruck and instead will use a jump ruck.
Although quite comfortable to wear my current setup isn't all that rugged, versatile or practical. Saying that, I recently decided I'd buy a CP gear Gen III '64 complete setup. I would really rather go with the modular pack as I like the added versatility and capability. However, even after shopping around for decent prices on various modular add-on pouches, this ruck setup would come up to well over $500. That is a substantial amount of money for something in the end that is simply a modualr jump ruck. That's also getting dangerously close to Kifaru territory.
My question(s) is, should I go ahead and spend the money on a ruck ('64) that I know and am comfortable with but with some added features (like the GenIII improvements and being modular) or take that money and go for a well respected and well spoken of rig like a Kifaru, which is unknown and untested to me? Or there is the third option which is to just get the regular GenIII ruck minus the modular capability.
Thanks for any advice.
