"The bag is super durable and very well made. Holds more than it should as an 18L pack. The bag fits my shorter torso very well. My only criticism is the lack of water bottle storage on the outside but I knew that going into the purchase. Love this bag. My new favorite"
"Sometimes you want more than a trad. Bullet can carry, but not the full Monty of a GR1. This bad boy fits that need perfectly. All the usual exceptional quality and details. The interior pocket/compartment configuration is exceptionally flexible and well-thought out. I give it 10 stars!"
"The double compartment laptop waxed-canvas bullet has been my EDC pack for a while now (I have nore than one) and I love it. Great option for a personal item onboard, though it’s a stretch when the 18Lt is packed to capacity (the just toss it in the overhead bin). I carried it around a beach town for hours while the hotel watched my GR2 and am happy to report I did not experience a sweaty back."
"This thing is a lot tougher than I thought it would be, Black frogskin looks great, I didn't think it would have a nice bright interior. It fits a suprising amount. The frame sheet is strong and the lumbar support is really nice. A great bag to wear and use."
"Love all of my goruck packs, this is my new EDC bag. I'm using my Rucker 4. 0 for 2 to 3 trucks per week. Looking to get some socks when they come back in stock and want to get a GR 2 and some shoes also."
"This is the perfect size for what I was needing! The quality is top notch and love the heavy duty zippers! Looking forward to years of use!"
"What a cool little bag! Love the heritage leather on it, mine came with a little hole on the bottom panel that’s not so cool given the cost of the bag - that’s the only reason for 4 stars not 5 - I love the way the patch panels are 100% stitched in vs the old gr1’s (I’d like to send my gr1’s bk to have that done to it), makes it look way cooler without patches. Not a big fan of the black panel on the inside of the bag - not sure what that material is, kinda think the goRuck mesh would’ve been a better choice, but the quality of this bag is spot on. Ordered mine in tan, would like another one in dark oak or green but they didn’t have those colors."
"I have had every major brand of backpack, but always wanted to try a GORUCK. I was able to get the 16L bullet for a great deal. GORUCK bags are hand down the best on the market. I can tell a huge difference in this bag compared to all my other ones when it comes to build quality. I am using the bullet as a rucksack and to transport my things to the office. I highly recommend this bag. I waited too long to get one and could have saved money buying other bags over the years. I will be carrying this bag for many years to come!"
"Google AI was very negative about the laptop fit citing the taper at the top of the bag but I rolled the dice and bought it anyway bc I needed to freshen up my EDC - a minimalist commuter bag. I figured I’d just use the internal slot if my laptop doesn’t fit in the dedicated compartment. Great news! It’s a perfect fit. The Laptop (Lenovo X9-15 Aura): 13. 37" (W) x 9. 0" (D) x 0. 51" (H) The Compartment (GORUCK 16L Bullet): 16. 25" (H) x 9. 75" (W) The numbers did not lie. The laptop fits snug and does not interfere with the zipper. Full confidence in the protection. iPad goes in the internal slot. I’m 6’ 175 lbs and wear size M shirts and the bag fits great. The photo shows the laptop pushed down as far as it will go. Check and check."
"The backpack is amazing and I love it. It's really well-made and are in perfect size for organize everything."
