    Posted: 17 October 2004 at 6:56pm
Hey there all. 

I have upgraded my gun to the point that i am VERY satisfied with its performance and have enough time in this sport to hang in most games to the end but have recently been wanting the ability too carry a little more paint onto the feild with me as right now i go on with whats in my hopper thats it. 

So i need a Pack nothing fancy two or three pods is more than enough but the problem is i am a BIG GUY at 6ft 270lbs.  And have noticed most packs i have seen seem to favore the smaller guys i have thoght about picking one of these up and just connecting it to my regular belt but was wondering if there were any better options.  Also has anybody used one of these packs and can they be used with one of the now standared 140rd pods?

Thanx fro the help.

But my question is will they fit a big guy????

I know its a funny question but something i kinda gotta consider.  These pacs that say fit up to a 44 will not work for me.

I dont know if its the same mesurement but i know i take coveralls size 58 so yeah i definatly in the BIG guy category lol.

Yeah,  I would not get the one in your first post they are limited to the 100 rd pods.  I think this is what you are looking for, they come in many camo patterns.

Shocker_Ratm: I think it's the avatar. :)

Redz belts come in a variety of sizes and the XL is pretty big. Once you have the belt, you can use it on any of the Dimension packs.

Redz also makes the FlexTech packs which comes with a belt that goes up to about 45" but also makes an extension in case you need more than that.
