Cross posted this on the SKD industry forum by accident.

I have seen a few pictures floating around of guys that have a small-to-medium sized backpack attached to their PC via buckles.  Im wondering if i can do this with my Banshee.  Something with enough room for a bladder, misc. gear, and molle on the outside.
My plate carrier:



Possible backpack:  Pack
Any help is greatly appreciated.

That pack would work. So would the Grey Ghost Gear version(s)..

Here's another:

This is what I have. I got it for $40 on black friday. I like it so far. Came with LOTS of spare buckles

I have the backpack you asked about and I don't really care for it.  There isn't a separate bag/pouch/divider for the water bladder, nor is there anywhere to hang the bladder so if you use one it will be in a pile at the bottom of the bag with anything else in the bag on it.  Also it's about 3" too long for the plate carrier, which drives me crazy seeing as it's intended for use on a plate carrier.  I can provide pics if you would like.

I've ordered this and decided I don't need to carry anything on my back besides water.  It was backordered so I don't have a picture of it nor can I give you a review outside of saying that I've been unhappy with pretty much everything else so far.  

Source Razor 3L Low Profile





The Condor, Source and Camelbak bladder carriers are all too long as well.

I have also used this-

Source Mil issue Hydration

And this-

Condor Effort



I have not used the PIG from SKD yet, but I have high hopes that the Low Profile 3L system from Source will suit my desires.

Good luck!

There is a place to hang a water bladder in the TT/GGG bags. It's in the outer pocket where the shoulder straps can be stowed. The hanger is tucked up under the velcro closure for that pocket.

But yeah, inside the main compartment itself, there is not a hanger for a bladder. Which is weird since they have a hydration port on top of the bag to route a hose..

Check this one out  http://www.tyrtactical.com/products/details/backpacks/tyr-assaulters-sustainment-tactical-pack/  
I've been using it in afghan for about a year now and i love it. the straps come off and it has molle webbing on it so you can attatch it straight to your kit or use it as a stand alone if you want. the thing that i love about it most is it has a spot dedicated for a helmet. if your traveling a lot you dont have to ghetto rig your helmet to you kit with a d-ring with it flopping around all over the place. kinda pricey, but Tyr stuff is top notch.
