webbing that allows you to secure radio pouches, magazine

On both sides at the top, there are two straps, which are ideal
for strobe pouches and other short pouches. Below them are
three straps, which are ideal for taller pouches such as magazine
pouches.

pouches such as radio pouches.

The EXP 2100™ PACK allows the use of the EXP PACK MOLLE INSERT,
which can be connected via six snap attachment points on the
perimeter of the main compartment. For ease of use, attach
pouches to the insert before securing it within the pack.
With pouches already secured to the insert, center the insert on
the back wall of the pack and secure the snaps.

You can also use the insert to stabilize your weapon by utilizing the
gear straps included with the insert. Place the weapon at desired
location and position and nd corresponding bar on the insert that
the gear strap will attach to.
Peel open VELCRO® tab on the gear strap. Pass long end of the
strap through opening until the opened tab hits the bar and secure
in place.
Note: For a vertical install, be sure that the VELCRO® tab secures toward the
bottom of the frame, otherwise the weight of the item may disengage the tab.
For a horizontal install, the direction of the VELCRO® tab is decided by the
desired way to release the gear strap.
Ensure both ends are free to wrap around the weapon.
