Can anyone tell me, other than the price, what the specific difference is between Vortexs bino harnesses? It seems they serve the same purpose and function but the guide pack is almost 40% more, and seems to be more popular.

the guidepack is made of heavier material, is bigger in all dimensions, and has more accessory storage, least from what I can tell looking at the links you posted.

All the guide pac is an Alaska guide creations bino harness with a vortex logo on it. The glass pack looks similar to a FHF bino harness. Both are good bino harnesses, just depends what you want out of your bino harness.

I've looked at them side by side, and the guide version (made by Alaskan Guide Creations) is far better quality. I own and use an Alaskan Guide Creations bino pack and I love it. The best $100 piece of hunting gear I own.
