So guess what I just got my hands on?
That's right, cockmongers, my very own M-51 Engineer's Field Bag!!!!1!!!!!!!one!
And just so Ross and I can't ever get our bags confused (hur hur hur) in real life, mine is
OLIVE FUCKING DRAB, MOTHERFUCKER!
So now I just need to find some suitably epic pins'n'patches'n'shit to geek this fuckdamn King of Bags into the Megafucking Emperor of Gaming Bags and Shit.
SRSLY though, this bag is made of every bit of awesome that Ross'n'Tom said it was, so by all means, if wagging your gaming swag around in conformist totes like backpacks or recycled $1 Wal-Mart bags is getting your shit down, create an account w/ Uncle Sam's Army/ Navy Outfitters, wait for this thing to go on sale, and BAG IT THE FUCK UP, FIZZBITCH!

Mine is olive drab too.
Oh shit.
-
You can't see it because this is the internet but I'm trying to touch your bag through the screen. I can feel the awesome from here.

Alright M-51 engineer bag.
Show us on your product label where Tad touched you through the internet.
Seriously though. This bag truly is as awesome as indicated. I have mine on me pretty much 24/7. Right now it's holding three sketchbooks, a dozen pens and pencils, character sheets for my current game,a Delta Green book, the Nemesis system printed out, my laptop, my recording equipment, and some emergency dice. (Yes I just said that.)
Best part is, it isn't even full.

I remember them talking about this bag on the podcast, but goddamn! Hearing your description makes me believe this is the end all be all bag! I must see it.

Just looked at the bag......wow

The bag lead me on! It's label said vintage!

I think you are lying good sir. Had you truly gazed upon the majesty of the bag, you would be blind and incapable of typing for 2d6 days.

Lol I had to hire someone to type for me.

You have started down a wondrous path. A path that leads to oneness with the Gods. The neuromancers will speak of you, the ageless ones, who have taken the step to divinity by purchasing the very bag that comes from the gossamer wings of angels.

And by "angels" he means "burly men from the 1930's who smelt of gunpowder cordite, sweat, MRE's, and machine oil".
Truly they were as gods who made this bag...
EDIT: Did they use gunpowder or cordite in bullets from WWI? I can't remember and I don't want to be looking up "WWI firearms" on my work computer. (Though "holy pissing shit balls" probably won't look any better in my browser history."
EDIT: Thanks Jon!

They used cordite.

Get back to work Tom

I've had my M51 for about two years now. They do kick as much ass as advertised.
Although, I have to admit, when I first ordered it, it was a little too messenger-bag douchey for me. But I've since grown to love it.
-
Has the zipper broken off yet?
:P
-
I hate the bags that you have to wear over your shoulder like that, they're impractical and the majority of them very uncomfortable and I'm a pretty average proportioned guy.
The way forward is sports jackets with lots of pockets in the linings. I wear tweed.
-
It's a sweet bag but the clasp (twiddly turney thing) on the front flap broke off.
BUT IT HAS A CLEAR PLASTIC THING!
I've got Khaki.
-

No, but ...
It's a sweet bag but the clasp (twiddly turney thing) on the front flap broke off.
My twiddly knob broke off after about a year. That might be partially due to the fact that, when the bag is full, the knob takes a large amount of the bag's weight when you pick it up, and when I was GM'ing our previous PFRPG I had to lug around four or five source books.
I got a replacement knob in metal at my local leatherworking craft shop and stuck it on with a cotter pin. Works much better than the crappy plastic one that came with the bag.

messenger bags are fine to carry with the shoulder strap if you don't overload them with crap.
The M-51 is perfect for me running con games because I can keep power cord for the zoom h2 in the back pocket, notes in the front pocket, postcards, recorder and dice in small pockets.
The thing is, I minimize and streamline what I need to carry as much as possible.

Ross: Go-getting, streamlined, trend setter.

Model 2010 Payton: 15% more fuel efficent than last year's design. And with 20% more smarm.

My gaming bag is the Bag of Holding from ThinkGeek (http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/bags/aaa5/)...
Really dig it for the spaciousness, but the lack of inner organization is a bit of a pain...
-
The M-51 is so fucking organized, it just efficiently allocated all your resources with an absolute minimum of waste.
Seriously.
It's not a joke.
IT'S THAT FUCKING ORGANIZED.

Blizzard builds a space marine with 50 minerals.
The M-51 Engineer bag does it with 45.

When the M-51 Engineer bag plays Starcraft, it is a squad-based turn-by-turn strategy game. It's that fucking organized.

It's like it was made for the army or something...
