General
The Pygmy Falcon is was sent to us for review by Maxpedition. While the Pygmy Falcon is basically a fanny bag, it has some extra features that make it more versatile and user friendly than most regular fanny bags. To start with, the Pygmy Falcon is made from heavy duty materials. The zippers, the nylon and the buckles really give the impression that this one is made to last and take some use and abuse. The Pygmy Falcon has 4 separate compartments equipped with zippers. The biggest main compartment is a 9" x 6" x 3", the front one is 8" x 5" x 1.5" and the two side compartments are 6" x 3" x 1.75". We would say that it's quite enough of storage space. Any more and you would be better of with a backpack anyway. Like all Maxpedition products the Pygmy Falcon also has paracord loops on all zippers so they can be easily manipulated with gloved hands.

Use
Because of the 2" wide and sturdy "belt" it's comfortable to use as a fanny bag, and you can really strap it tight around you without discomfort. The wide belt also helps to keep the bag in place even if loaded with heavier stuff like ammo. If, for some reason, you don't want to place the bag on your waist you can tuck away the belt and use it as hand carried bag. For this purpose the Pygmy has a separate handle that has two compression straps attached. If either of these two options doesn't suit you you can also piggy-back the Pygmy to an ALICE pr MOLLE compatible gear with MALICE clips. There are nylon loops on both the back and front side so you can attach it to your gear either way. There are nylon loops on the side pockets also so you have the option to attach smaller additional accessories like cell phone holders to the Pygmy Falcon.

The only complaint we had after testing the bag is that they could have added some Velcro inside main compartment to allow the use of the Maxpedition universal CCW holster.

+ versatility
