GORUCK GR2: Travel FAR, get ORGANIZED...more than just a middle-sized RUCKSACK!

Hey guys! Rounding out the GR-series is the GR2. There's WAY MORE to this rucksack than it's middle-sized capacity. While it bridges the capacity gap between the 26L GR1 and the 45L GR3, it also adds a ton of functionality and organization options with its dual-compartment set-up. This design may even be your best option in the 26L sized GR2 because of this layout and features. This bag is in stock sporadically so pick one up when it's available for sure. They are starting to make this bag in 500D cordura but there are plenty out in the wild made of the thicker 1000D. I hope you enjoyed this look at the most organized and functional option of the GORUCK rucksacks and thanks for watching! Let me know how you use YOUR GR2! -JB

Took a shot for every time you slapped the bag, having a much better day now! 😅 Thanks for the video!

Awesome vid! I had the 34L GR2 from November 2017 to August 2020 and it was the first ruck I ever owned from GORUCK. I originally used it for my EDC and primarily as a gym bag to hold my squat shoes, weight belt, knee sleeves, wrist straps, protein etc., and it was excellent for longer than a weekend travel. When I travelled Australia for almost two years from June 2018 to March 2020, it was my EDC until I got a 21L GR1. For getting to Australia, I had the GR2 fully packed with 20L and 10L packing cubes as well as two GR2 Field Pockets and placed it inside the GR3. Tbh, this was also the first ruck I ever sold as it became too big for my EDC needs now so I decided to keep my GR3 and opt for a 26L GR1 and a 10L Bullet. As GORUCK says, the Special Forces curse clearly states that the more space you have, the more stuff you’ll pack. Cheers!

I just got the GR2 26l. I can say it is one of the best EDC back pack I have ever own. Works for me since I got to school and work, carries all what I need for just a day. Anything larger the 26l, I feel like it's more for 2 day travel.

[MattKellyFitness]

Great review. I’ve got the GR1 26, GR2 34 and the kit bag.

Main uses gym/work/weekend. My challenge is deciding which bag is best for which situation. Bag dilemmas 🤣

[dironahlquist]

How do your vids not have more likes is beyond me. Well done. New subscriber. Love your ruck rack in the back. Would like to see a video of that whole thing. Looks pretty basic but something I've been wanting to do in our garage to get my packs organized. Thanks again.

Have a 34l gr2 500D and finally pulled the trigger on 26l heritage gr2.

I'm getting my GR2 34L today! I got a trip coming up I n a couple weeks and excited to get some usage then. I thought the 40L would be too big for me so I'm just going to try this one out but I'm thinking it's the perfect travel bag for me. I did 2 weeks with a 26L GR1 and just needed a little more space.

[jaredweiman]

Ended up going with the 40l. 16oz boxing gloves, wraps, plus a weekends worth of clothes packs better into it than the 34l imo.

[vile]

Do you think the 4.0 33L long range is great for travel also?

[dexteww]

Hi
As hand carried on plane would it fit the overhead compartment and or underneath seat packed full? Is it legal by size dimensions and weight?
Thanks

[TheHolbeing]

So is this simply just a backpack? Can I also store 45-50lb plates IFAC protein bars and jerky and other edc to train?

[liam]

Nice work, JB. Much appreciated. Have you ever used these kydex sheets as a replacement sheet for more stability? Wondering if it’s even worth the change..

[MattHikesHills]

Why would a large rucking pack not have a waist belt? I cant get my head around this.

[JustFluxz]

What are the best carabiners that you would recommend to use for the front webbing on goruck bags? Want to have 2 just in case.

[jesusbarraza]

Can someone please count how many times he slaps / taps the bag 😂

[sennahojw]

Hi, just for reference what is your height?

[concealmenttraining]

I have tried so many packs.. realized Its not the packs shoulder straps but my shoulders that need conditioning. Maybe something you can make a video about.

[finn]

Hi JB can you make a review for GR2 26L 500D Black colour please?

[Javier]

Does this bag come in this color tan anymore?

[saltytactical]

Another great video…that’s a 401k worth of bags on the wall! Ahaha What is your take on the GR1 21L vs the GR2 26L for a carry on backpack with camera gear. I think he 21L might be a bit small for a full Dslr
