Magpul EDC Backpacks

Magpul Industries is releasing its new line of EDC (everyday carry) backpacks, which consists of three different models: the Magpul EDC 15, EDC 18 and EDC 25. All of these backpacks are constructed with sturdy materials such as 500 denier (500D) medium-weight TPU coated-nylon fabric weave and premium YKK Aquagard zippers. These materials allow Magpul’s new backpacks to not only be scratch-proof and rugged, but also waterproof and stain resistant. Given that these are Magpul-designed backpacks, these three models also make room for a secret, concealed-carry compartment that can house a pistol out of sight. The largest of the trio, the EDC 25, even has an additional hidden pistol compartment. All three new bags include an internal laptop pocket sleeve, a small compartment for GPS-based luggage trackers and a keychain leash.

The smallest of the three new bags, the EDC 15, was created to function as a light and handy messenger bag, while the larger EDC 18 and EDC 25 serve as more traditional backpacks. The Magpul EDC 18 and EDC 25 backpacks also feature two compartments that accept Magpul’s EDC accessory sleeves that includes a MOLLE style mounting system that allows these larger backpacks to easily be converted to range bags to better stow gear, firearms, accessories and other items.
