Made in the USA and built to endure, this pack combines authentic military-grade quality with versatile functionality.

## Description

This Genuine Military Issued ACU MOLLE Rucksack. MOLLE attachment webbing so that you can add many other items, such as entrenching took cover, sustainment pouches, magazine/flashlight pouches, and many other pouches which are part of the MOLLE System. Great pack for camping or hiking. Frame, shoulder straps, and waist belt make for easy carrying and better distribution of the weight in the pack.

Review: Big, bombproof bag - Great bag! Rated VGC (very good condition), few scuffs on the buckles and some tape residue. All buckles and straps present, no holes or tears. Came with 2 x sustainment bags attached. This is not a lightweight bag, the whole assembly weighs a few pounds, look elsewhere if you want something high speed. The main bag is cavernous and fairly easy to remove, which leaves the frame and harness free for lashing whatever you want to to it. A bottle or two of Rit dyemore sandstone will give you a nice red clay, almost coyote color (see photos). Overall great value.
Review: HUGE bag more than worth the price - Best bag you can get for $40. To get something of this size, quality, and with a frame, you’d probably have to pay $200+ if it wasn’t military surplus. Mine didn’t have a smell or anything. It was all assembled and I just had to adjust some straps to fit me. It could probably fit just about any sized person imaginable, there are so many straps. There is a small hole I will fix but otherwise seems like it was never used or only lightly. A bit of a weird texture in some places probably because of old glue or old wax finishing. I’ll just give it a wash. Please note, I am 5’6” and this bag is HUGE. I’m happy about it, but it’s hard to tell from the picture. See my pics for reference

## Questions & Answers

**Q: how much weight can the pack handle without compromising the integrity of it?**
A: The recommendation is about a third of your body weight however you could probably put more in it because these are heavy duty bags

**Q: Is it waterproof**
A: If u keep all the flaps closed and draw strings pulled it repels rain.  But no if it sits in snow/mud/standing water it eventually gets wet inside

A: Not really sure haven't taken off frame
