Never heard of them and for $30 I can see why but if it works for you then good on you. I'm a believer in the "get what you pay for" mentality when it comes to gear. So let us know how well it holds up

The Source Bladders are tough.


And the opening/closure method is great..

Made in Israel..

Website says $149.  How did you score one for $30?

Gunshows are interesting creatures...

I saw one vendor selling a $80 sling he got in a trade for $25...

If the vendor he bought it from got it as a trade but didn't know how much it was he could get a great score..

Quality of the item in discussion aside, I'm ambivalent about hydration packs, on account of most of them––not all–– having the bladder dedicated to the pack, and not quickly removeable and carried without the pack.

I'm much in favor of hydration carriers that clip onto the parent pack, and can be un-clipped and used as stand-alone units.  More weight, to be sure, but vastly greater utility.  YMMV.

Does look like you got more than you paid for, though.  Good on you.
