Quoted By:
My brother was an exchange student in Germany a couple of years ago. He brought me pic related as a present.
Its a Gebirgsjagers ruck - german army mountain troops. I looked it up and it seems like there are tons of repros out there. But mine is an original one - sturdy as fuck. Has about 35l
Basically its the ideal pack (imho!) for two days of hiking and camping. I really love it. But as stocks seems to dry, I may order myself another one as spare. They are cheap in Naziland.
The only con: it was designed with the strange german sleeping mat in mind. Its not rolled but folded and serves as back padding.
So what I did: I bought a cheap mat at Walmart and cut it down so it fits the compartment. Works like a charm.
