Review on Tippmann T399005 Sport Harness Black by Chris Quinto

I should have known better than skimping on my pod/tank

I want to start off everything I'm going to say about this product by saying I should have known better than my pod save up. /tank pack Let's talk quality first. The packaging itself is fine, it fits two pods and a decent sized tank, and they stay in place well enough which made me think this might be a worthy product to get back into paintball. Wow, I was wrong. The biggest issue with this package came after I found out what came as a strap. It's a simple belt with a plastic clip and that would be fine except for the back of the capsule packaging. The only thing holding the packaging in place are 3 spaced belt loops that are at least 6 times larger than the included belt, leaving the belt vulnerable to crunching and digging into your waist. Also, the tiny size of the strap makes it very difficult to run, crawl, or really do anything other than take cover without this backpack bouncing uncontrollably on your butt. It fits so poorly on the body and the strap twists so easily that during the first 4 games one of the strap loops literally snapped trying to walk with this backpack. It's actually quite sad because the product would be fine if it came with a traditional Velcro strap that would fit over the oversized strap holes. Finally, don't skimp on it, pay for something better, that would be a poor package to give even to a beginner. Please add the best belt from the manufacturer, it makes a 100% difference for this product. I would return this product if I didn't break it on the first walk.
