For myself, I would go with Kifaru every time. They may cost more money and take a few weeks to reach you, but IMO, you can't find a better ruck out there. They have a wide variety of styles to meet your requirements, they have excellent pouches and other accessories and they use very good quality materials. They also have some top notch sleeping bags, woobies and other similar gear.

I've used their stuff for the last 4 deployments and can't recommend them more highly.

I took my highly modded ALICE large and left the MOLLE stuff home when I deployed to Iraq 2007 & 2010. I would do the same if I were to deploy today. YMMV.

Haven't taken any of the MOLLE stuff out of the plastic, had it since 2006. CIF won't let me turn it in...........

ALICE is still the go to 90% of the time.

However I found whilst conducting operations and wearing kit, the issued mystery ranch medium ruck was pretty hard to beat. I was meant to be worn over kit, so there were a great deal of things about it that make it more comfortable to wear.

As for a civilian ruck? Gregory every time.
