EVERYTHING IN ITS PLACE

2 large compartments for more organization. The inner compartment has 2 pockets: 1 slim pocket and 1 large power mesh pocket that’s great for clothes. The outer compartment has 3 pockets and a built-in field pocket. Plus, a quick-access pocket is located under the handle for keys, sunglasses and a phone.

WAXED CANVAS

Refined by decades of naval battles and ‘tea races’ from China to London in the mid-19th century. It later became Army standard by WWII. Good enough for our grandfathers is good enough for us.

Bombproof Laptop Compartment

The separate compartment next to your back is extra reinforced to securely take a laptop into combat. Fits 13" Macbook Pro or Air comfortably and most 14" laptops.

QUICK ACCESS POCKET

Ergonomic Lumbar Support

An additional 10mm of EVA foam padding along the bottom section of the back panel supports the natural curve of your back. It’s raised up, protects you from friction from seams on pants, belts, Tough leggings, or anything back there. And if it’s exposed to your skin, that’s no problem either.

FABRIC DETAILS: WAXED DUCK CANVAS

The use of 10.10oz Army Duck Canvas can be traced all the way back to the mid-19th century. Army Duck canvas is a medium-weight, versatile fabric. It is constructed with an incredibly tight weave of the yarn, making it tough and resistant to tearing. The extra layer of wax protects the fabric from the different elements you may encounter, and makes the fabric waterproof, while still allowing it to sweat vapor and not stiffen or yellow over time. It only looks better with age and use.

USED IN: TRAVEL RUCKSACKS, TRAVEL GEAR, KIT BAGS, AND RUCK ACCESSORIES

Reviews

Bigger than it looks

"The bag is super durable and very well made. Holds more than it should as an 18L pack. The bag fits my shorter torso very well. My only criticism is the lack of water bottle storage on the outside but I knew that going into the purchase. Love this bag. My new favorite"

A great secret weapon. . .

"Sometimes you want more than a trad. Bullet can carry, but not the full Monty of a GR1. This bad boy fits that need perfectly. All the usual exceptional quality and details. The interior pocket/compartment configuration is exceptionally flexible and well-thought out. I give it 10 stars!"

Ben P. (5/5)

Love this pack

"Love all of my goruck packs, this is my new EDC bag. I'm using my Rucker 4. 0 for 2 to 3 trucks per week. Looking to get some socks when they come back in stock and want to get a GR 2 and some shoes also."

Brad E. (5/5)

Another great GORUCK product.

"Outstanding! This is my fourth GORUCK product. As usual, it’s perfect. Built to the same standards as my USA made GR-3, and equal in quality to my Rucker Long Range. Keep up the great work!"

Joseph D. (5/5)

Best travel backpack

"I have used a plethora of backpacks over the years and travelled extensively. Recently I came across Goruck and decided to treat myself with an upgrade. The finish quality is second to none. It is both comfortable and spacious. It is a heavy bag for its size but you get peace of mind knowing your laptop is well protected. The one improvement I would like to see is for the bag to be able to stand flat on its base. Other than this, super happy with my purchase and would recommend to anyone that prioritises quality, comfort and durability."

Antonio (5/5)

Like a compact GR2; excellent travel bag

"I previously bought a GR2, and liked it even more than expected. The only problem was that sometimes it was larger than I wanted, for example when it was time to stow it under the airplane seat in front of me. The Double Compartment Bullet has solved that problem: still enough space for my stuff including a well-protected laptop, plenty of organization pockets, but usefully smaller in size. As expected, the construction is top notch with rugged material and quality zippers that seem likely to last forever."

Show your ruck Life in your EDC

"Only miss here for me is and external water bottle holder and my lap top not fitting. Even with that, this design is the best I have seen for an EDC pack. Lots of built in compartments and spaces for everything imaginable. I am using this as my new office bag. Loving it thus far."

Rob M. (5/5)

Goruck Bullet DC in dark frogskin

"I have quite a few Gorucks including the GR1 and Heritage and Robic Bullets. I really like this pack. The only thing is the front panel is off centre by an inch and it’s twisted about 10°. Functionally it works and I don’t mind the twist. Makes it unique I guess. If it was centred I would give it full marks. I just would have expected the same quality control as my other GRs that are both made in the USA and Vietnam"

Raymond D. (4/5)

Great EDC and Travel Bag

"Excellent backpack for everyday use or travel. The double compartment allows me to organize all my photography gear perfectly, allowing me to be operational in the field without any problems and in any conditions and do my job the right way. I've also tested it in constant rain for several days. Excellent."

Simone F. (5/5)

My current day bag

"Great little day pack. . . a favoritye now for day and overnight trips. . . wish there was some MOLLE on the inside and was 20mm wider, but outside that, zero complaints."
