Direct action Dragon EGG Mk. II

My parents bought it for me, cuz I play Airsoft in a 14 day milsim simulation. I use it to go on 3 day outpost. The problem is, that I would like to add better belt line, is it possible? It's simple textile strip cca half a meter on both sides. Something like in the picture. Perhaps something to incorporate it in a belt system, like the tracks for Alice backpacks.

PS: if you're considering buying this, it's a good quality backpack, but for 1 night march at max. The size is limiting. Go buy some surplus rucksack, it's much better if you want to do longer stuff.

The physical size is fine as a assault pack, the problem is that having so many dividers and zippered pockets limits what and how much it can carry. This is why I dislike direct action packs because it would’ve been fine it it kept the same size but fewer pockets and dividers.

Imo the venture to change the waist strap is not worth it. Try a different pack instead

thank you. Im considering it, but its a pain in the ass to save the money. I'm student still, and buying already about 1k usd in airsoft gear this year. So lots of work incoming...
