Even when not "loaded" there is really no slack in that main strap. The result is that I have to use both hands to release the snap. I did extend the strap to full length, which was only about an inch longer than its shipped length. I thought somenone (?SL) had remarked that he could open the flap with one hand. Did I get short-changed on strap length, or is this the norm? If the norm, has anyone found a useful way to lengthen it by an inch or two, so that management is easier?

What a great idea. Thanks for passing that along. I am sure others do that, but I hadn't thought of that yet.
