The M35 Special Operations Tactical Bag packs a punch at a very reasonable price. Its heritage dates back over 20 years and the company behind it, MC Products, have been an industry leader for the past 5 years.

In reviewing this bag it became apparent very quickly that the company’s competitors have got a mountain to climb if they are going to match their bags for design, build quality & cost.
The M35 is part of the Protec Bag range. It is a mid-sized frameless backpack constructed of tough 1200D nylon. This unique design has three zipped compartments and a notably huge amount of kit loops. To top it off it is double stitched with bound seams ensuring that its construction will provide years of rugged use.

Features:

• Hydration system compatible.
• Body contour shoulder straps
• External side compression straps
• Heavy duty carry/ drag handle
• Padded torsion and stabiliser waist belt
• Two sets of securing straps (ground sheet, sleeping bag, etc.)
• D-rings for equipment attachments on the shoulder strap
• All compartments have large No 10 zips closed by dual sliders
• Molle loops on front and both sides for accessories
• Velcro patch on the front for your own badge
• Weight 1.4kgs
• Capacity: approx 30.3ltr
• Size: H 50cm x W 37cm x D 24cm (expandable)

As always Protec have developed a Police tactical bag that is superior to any other bag we found in the same price range.

Putting the bag to the ultimate test we compared it to a well established brand within the industry. We couldn’t split them, with one exception, the price. The Protect M35 at £29.95 came in at a massive 75% saving. Granted the ‘branded’ bags in the industry are very expensive, perhaps over priced, a reason why many Officers go for alternative bags. With this in mind we took the M35 and compared it to similar bags offered by Protec’s competitors. Nothing came close, it simply blew the competition away on build quality, functionality and most importantly on price. It still came in at an average 50% cheaper.

Remember what this bag is, it is a Special Operations Tactical Bag. Search for its competitor on google. Then go back to Protec Police bags and take another look.
Their description is spot on but somehow still doesn’t do it justice. This bag has more kit loops than I could mention. I would defy anyone who could hang a piece of kit from every loop and still manage to carry the bag. The kit loops are actually a design feature that enables Officers to arrange their kit in a very personal way.
