    Got some vouchers for christmas for amazon and thought I'd put them to good use. Was looking at this http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B005LMYBAM/ref=aw_d_detail?pd=1

    Anyone have any opinions on it. Presuming osprey would be pretty good quality.

    Also anybody have any thoughts on 2l versus 3l, considering I'll not only be using it for airsoft but also running,

    As always much appreciated

    osprey stuff is excellent, get the 3L just because its bigger does not mean you have to fill it to the top ;)

    Camelbak and PLatypus are also excellent brands for hydration.

    Source is another good choice. Don't cheap,out as I had a generic ones and the thing leaked like hell. Camelbak are one of the best. I picked up a thermobak for the rionegro game and it was a fantastic investment.

    we get the camelbak one's issued in work and they handle a lot of abuse and have a cut-off valve to stop them leaking all down the front of you.

    I wouldn't get a platypus as they are expensive (For parts etc.) and not very generic. Definitely get a camelbak.
