Looks like it to me - maybe an older model of it?  Mine doesn't have that strap in the middle or that pad over the top?

Picked mine up last year...

yep, I like it a lot more than the newer model. The complaints I have on the newer model are... waist strap doesn't go tight enough, buckles are not as high quality, can't fit quite as much gear, doesn't have the top flap to protect from the weather, not as comfortable on the shoulders. I was able to fit all of this gear, plus 2/3's of the meat and head of a 4pt muley in this pack. hauled it 8 miles out very comfortably. I could have fit all of the meat but my dad was there to help with the weight. He used the newer 2800 and he wasn't hunting so he had a little less gear but his pack was stuffed! He says next trip he'll be going back to his older 2800.
