[2024/09] GWA x BCS Citadel Gen.3 Mk2 Southwest

The Citadel was a bag 7+ years in the making with every detail painstakingly prototyped & fielded in order to ensure maximum functionality. All this over a period that has covered over 20,000 miles of road & air travel. Throughout the years we have used dozens of bags while never encountering one perfect design that incorporated everything we wanted in a bag. The Citadel combines all of our favorite & must have features into one bag. This making it our perfect EDC, travel & tactical use pack.
