new pack. thought to share.

So being on a limited budget iv been looking long and hard for a back pack that would be large (4-7 day outing ) built good and was cheap. almost a holy grail for me. then i got steered to ebay and the ILBE usmc pack. and for the price $80.00 +40 in shipping i decided to take the risk, was old" surplus never used. (so add said ) and they didn't lye. after waiting a week and a half it arrived today. so like a kid i tore open the box, and there it was . Pack, Lid, Radio pack, and (Assault pack small good for a day two maybe ) every thing was in mint condition . the main pack is 4500 cubic inchs but i think its a lot bigger and ratted to Carrie 120 lbs . and tons molle straps huge waiste band and compression straps every were.

As pack for going out hunting and your on a limited budget this would fit that bill then some and not have to spend $400 + on a pack. Just thought to share in case any one else was looking for a pack like me and was limited with funds.
There is tons of em online just make sure you find one with LID included. lots of them also come with assault pack also.
As a side note the Assault pack straps on to the main pack so your not carrying two packs going in just one , you can then leave one in camp or stash it and move on with the smaller one. hope i didnt ramble on to much just thought it was useful info and hope i put this in right topic .

Awesome deal. I have some military surplus camo (snow and desert) and love them. They work well, well contructed and a Whole Lot cheaper than name brand camo.... Good find!

These are the kind of posts I find super fun to read. The discovery of a new(old) product that works great and doesn't cost an arm and a leg. Most hunters/shooters are always on the lookout for good deals and appreciate these 'reviews' do keep us updated on the field trials.
