That one looks pretty cool! Kind of oldschool.
How does the straps feel on the shoulders? They look like they may cut when packing heavy.

im really liking the duluth pack. would like some attachment places and the price is a bit steep. but the dimensions and layout looks good. price is a bit steep bit if it lasts then it would be worth it.


JYD #82 yup...

Straps are wide and no cutting, if you need them they have some wider straps with padding and I have thought about buying. I use the pack on all my trips and love it.

This pack is built extremely well and will last a couple of life times.

On the deluth bag,you could get some surplus strap pads and add them. The pads I speak of are WW II and Korean War vintage. If you like the deluth there are some European surplus bags that would fit the bill for a lot less.

I have become a fan of GORUCK bags. Expensive, but they hold up when put trough the ringer. Made in the USA.

i also use a usmc ilbe main pack and the matching 3 day assault pack.

i have a maxpedition fatboy style pack (knockoff) by a company called red rock for my car/edc pack. usually just take that along for day hikes. 3 day pack for overnights and the ilbe for anything longer.

BOB is in a mil-surplus frame pack set up...too tired to remember it.

Hunting pack is a UTG multi-purpose tactical messenger bag (maxped knockoff). I have two smaller maxpeds and actually like this one better than the fatboy.

Night hunting, I keep my gear in a Opsmod bag I picked up from Optics Planet--just got it so nothing yet to report.

I keep my hiking/personal survival kit in a small maxped bag that straps to my hip/thigh. Too tired to go look at what it is, but it's perfect for my needs.

Oh, and I can vouch for SF's Dulluth--it's a NICE bag. He's let me fondle it a couple times. His pack....not...never mind....

That bag you got from optics planet looks just like a copy (cept for the color) of my 511 push pack. I like it, its a nice size for a couple folks who are just out on an easy afternoons stroll.
