>>1503309Started with bags. One of the first pieces of milsurp I got was an ALICE pack. I keep her around as the Old Reliable--heavy as all get out but I've modded it just how I like it.
Current ruck is an old Berghaus Atlas--German ruck purportedly in use by their special forces. Reasonably lighter, just as sturdy, lot more comfortable. The side pouches can be pulled off and zipped together, and the bag itself can be cinched down to a smaller size.
