We used mystery ranch packs in wildland firefighting.

They're great for working outdoors. Wouldn't recommend you use them recreationally.

Never let other people spend your money. Buy what you want and fuck them.

To my taste, I never found an MR comfortable. I still have a crew cab because....well not sure why...but you made the money, you spend it.

US made and they have a legit US military contract and the Berry-compliant combat models are mostly sold out. Their other lines like the hunting and camping lines are made in vietnam/phillipines though.

Have you waterproofed it? Or at least have a liner to cover it with?

That pack will gain 20+ pounds in one rain storm.

Is the liner actually waterproof? You may need to waterproof it further. Even things that say waterproof are time and time again not actually waterproof.

I intend on waterproofing it further but it gotten the job done. Hasn't been out in hard rain long enough to find out it's limit desu. But it's definitely a better investment and cheaper to waterproof this one than to get OPs.

A pack that I truly loved and was 100% waterproof right out of the box was the Kelty Redcloud. I had the 110L because I spend way too long in the woods at a time. It's not too much more expensive than the pack you showed.

Buying a backpack without checking the fit first is like marrying someone without fucking them.

Besides, you can try it at the big stores then buy online cheaper.

Looks to me like you spent $800 on a camo ALICE pack, which you can find in O. D. green for $50. Alice packs are serviceable though lacking in comfort, hopefully the pack you bought improves on the ALICE pack design drastically.

I love MR large packs. Worth the money if you're interested in top gear.
I felt odd dropping $300 on a Eberlestock pack 6 years ago until I started using it.
When it's a important quality item that you'll use forever, more power to you.

Got a 65 or is it 55 liter version of that pack from Winforce out of AliExpress. Cool thing about this Chink pack is that the outer material is 600D Polyester ripstop and that all the 3 outer pockets have PALS webbing on them. Simple top loading design with an expandable snow collar that can carry a lot of shit. Plus the shoulder straps can be adjusted for height.

Got one of those, same price, they are NOT waterproof or even water resistant and the side pouches do not use snaps to retain their connection other than shitty weak velcro, plus the stitching on the shoulder straps and the back panel failed after a single trip to Malaysia with a mere 8kg load. The only good thing about that pack is the removable fanny/butt/waist/shoulder pack that is in the bottom front, since it can attach to any other MOLLE platform. I gave it the whole kit away to a cousin and still miss the fanny pack. If you want to buy meme packs made by the Chinese at least get the 1000D Cordura ones that are quite close in quality and workmanship to their >made in USA FUCK YEAH counterparts.

Cost a fraction of some of these packs out there, either sold as military ideal customized packs or civilian even more expensive ones.

Don't fall for the new issue fancy memes, maybe they're selling excess it since the diggers rejected it and asked for their old shit back

It's a bit lighter which is good, it flexes more which can be bad if you have a lot of shit, and it won't pop a rivet ever which to be fair is rare as shit like you dropped you pack down a hill trying to throw it over a fence and watched it bouncing down for 10 seconds or so hating your life.

I think it's more important to have a frame which fits your back which for almost everyone the small one is more comfortable and keeps that shit on your back instead of chafing up your upper butt
