Today is the day we finally have the chance to review a product. Since we are reviewing it, #Today we will review it in detail. Currently, Viktos Upscale has Gen 1 and Gen 2, which are quite different. But after actually trying it, I can honestly say that it depends on your preference.
The Viktos Upscale Sling is a shoulder bag designed for tactical personnel or officers who need a low profile in their operations to be able to use their belongings quickly and have enough storage space. The main thing is #the weapon compartment that can be opened on both sides, including whether the person is left-handed or not.
The right side can be used comfortably and has a shape that is not too noticeable. It can also be changed in many ways, such as changing the main compartment to put a hydration pack or a small bulletproof plate.
Let's start from the outside , starting with the fabric of the bag. In Gen 1, 600D Cordura fabric was chosen in the plain color and 500D in Multicam.
But when it's Gen 2, it has changed to use Cordura 1000D, but in Multicam, it still uses the same 500 D. But what has changed or the touch of Gen 2 is softer than before. But if anyone likes a fierce, tough, hard type, Gen 1 should be more pleasing. Which doesn't need to be mentioned in terms of strength. In use, Gen 1 or 2 are equally durable. The whole bag uses a zipper from YKK that provides durability and silence when opening and closing.
On the back, there is a Molle for attaching to a Plat Carrier. The bag's zipper and when attached to the Plate Carrier, it is suitable for holding a Hydration Pack or water bag, which has a hole for a drinking tube to come out neatly.
When attached to the Plate Carrier, it will look like this.
For a more low profile, the Gen 2 has eliminated the Velcro strip for attaching various patches.
But for those who like to find beautiful patches to stick on and play, it may not meet the fun and coolness requirements here. The inner glasses storage compartment has softer fabric to prevent scratches on the lenses or glasses, and the shape has been slightly adjusted to make it easier to wear because of the different padding. As for Gen 1, it is thinner, which is in exchange for a wider compartment without having to adjust the shape of the compartment, making it easier to grab.
The front pocket zipper is different between Gen 1 and Gen 2. Gen 2 is designed to open in all directions, which is definitely more suitable for people who
It is better to be left-handed or right-handed, but if Gen 1 is left-handed, it may be a little difficult, but it can be used. But it is outstanding in terms of tightness, because if you forget to close the bag, there is a chance that
It will fall out of the bag less often. #In this case, the advantages and disadvantages are different.
The straps in Gen 1 and 2 are very different. Gen 1 uses a strong, smooth webbing that can be quickly adjusted, but Gen 2 has changed to a soft fabric that is very comfortable to wear for a long time.
Both sides of the shoulder strap can be removed for Gen 2, but Gen 1 can only be removed one way. If you don't want to attach it to Molle, don't remove it. It will just be lost. Personally, the admin likes the Gen 1 webbing more, but I admit that it sometimes hurts my throat. Haha.
The hook of Gen 1 is made of metal, which helps with strength. However, the weak point of this type is that if we do not press it properly, it may bounce off. However, the advantage is that it is more flexible when it needs to be removed quickly.
Gun holsters Gen 1 gun holsters are harder and thicker, which is why drawing them quickly is easier and doesn't get stuck. Gen 2 has been made thinner and less rigid.
This makes it look smooth when put in the bag and reduces the shape to some extent, and adds a strap instead.
Both models start at 2800 baht. Whoever likes which model or style can choose to look at it. As for the color that the admin brought to review, it is the RG color. There are actually many colors, such as Multicam.
,Black Multicam , Black , Mid Watch etc. many
