I guessing you could because the hydro pack doesn't have to connect to molle.

That is what I think, but because the two different brands the buckles may be different.

They should, but there is no guarantee. What I recommend is you save up a bit more, and get the Eagle Industries MLCS backpack in multicam. That PANTAC item is actually based off said backpack that hooks into RRVs/MBSSs/RBSSs.

Honestly Tollis, just get both PANTAC things. You honestly won't know the difference except for the extra money in your pocket. PANTAC makes exceptionally great gear, and for airsoft there is no reason to get Eagle Industries stuff, that's just for us who have money to waste on feeling cool

I have the same Pantac hydro only in CB. Yes, you could feasibly use both together. The pack comes with molle attachments or regular backpack style straps. What buckles are you talking about? There are two going across the back, but I don't see how you'd use those to help mount the pack on that vest. Basically, unless you get some molle back panel to that vest, you will have to wear the pack as a backpack.

Shift, that's not the MAP, rather it's the MLCS backpack. It has straps along the top and sides to hook into an RRV or MBSS. That will work.
Tex, after shipping the Eagle one really isn't that much more. It's worth the $50 or so bucks, why put Pantac on Eagle?

I was thinking of just getting the PANTAC instead of the EI, so I guess that I will just go for both PANTAC.

If you're coming to Diamondback you can see mine to get an idea of how to make it work.

...why put Pantac on Eagle? Doesn't help that the MLCS Backpacks are never in stock. Tollis, If your are still going the Rhodesian route, the EI Hydro Carrier can integrate with the RRV. Why not get that and throw some GP pouches on it?

I personally wouldn't worry about being able to attach your hydration pack to your vest. In Airsoft as well as actual military service, I prefer to keep my CamelBak separate, by using the standard backpack-style straps. This way, in case I need to move fast, I can ground the CamelBak quickly to reduce my encumberment, then grab it later and put it back on. Do keep in mind this is my own personal preference, but it is something to think about.
