The First Tactical Specialist Half-Day Backpack 25L in Black is the smallest pack in the Specialist series, sized for range days, short patrols and a go-bag that has to stay compact (First Tactical part no. 180006-019-1SZ). It is cut from 1000D water resistant nylon with YKK zippers and Duraflex hardware, and the dual density shoulder straps and double layered bottom carry a load without punishing the wearer. A Hook and Hang Thru compartment lets a First Tactical Rifle Sleeve slide through the back for hands-free long gun carry, and the external web platform accepts MOLLE/PALS pouches. The Black colourway keeps the pack in line with a kit built around that tone. Inside, a mesh pocket and two drop pockets keep small items organized, and a hook and loop panel on the back handles personal customization.

Key Specifications

• Capacity is 25 liters (1525 cubic inches), enough for a day of gear while staying slim on the back.
• The shell is 1000D water resistant nylon, a heavy fabric chosen for abrasion resistance and wet weather.
• The pack carries 5 external pockets and 3 internal pockets, so frequently used items stay separated from bulk gear.
• The main compartment measures 11 inches long, 17 inches high and 6.5 inches deep, with a single mesh pocket and two interior drop pockets.
• The Hook and Hang Thru System unzips at the top and bottom of the pack so a First Tactical Rifle Sleeve can hook and hang in place for hands-free carry.
• Compression straps are repositionable and removable, which lets the wearer set up the pack for the load at hand.
• Empty weight is 2.95 pounds, light enough that the pack adds little to a loaded kit.
