I have a few bits of DPM kit which is no longer required. All items have been lightly used. I'm open to sensible offers.
Northern Island DPM Patrol Pack (35 litre) - £30 posted
The Northern Ireland patrol pack comprises of one large main compartment, two large side pockets and two zipped pockets on the lid, one being a flat pocket and one a box pocket.
It has snow/rain protective covers sewn into the top of the main compartment and both side pockets, these are to prevent snow, rain, sand or dirt from getting into your pack and thus into your kit.
The side pockets of the NI pack have drain holes on the bottom of the pockets to allow whatever gets in to get out once more.
The side pockets are spacious allowing ample storage for a 58 pattern water bottle and cup, a metal mug and cooker unit, mess tins, first aid kit and various other gubbins you might want. With a little gentle persuasion you can even fit a Swedish trangia cooker in a side pocket.
Both side pockets have clip-fastened lids as well as the snow cover drawstring so loss of kit is unlikely even if you forget to clip the pocket shut.
The main compartment is again spacious and allows storage of bulkier items like sleeping bag, bivi bag, warm clothing and the likes. As well as the drawstring snow cover it has another drawstring sewn into the exterior to pull the top of the pack closed.
There are two pockets on the lid of the pack, one on top of the other. The bottom one is suited for storing flat items like maps and compasses, notebooks or field guides. The box pocket on top of this has a little more flexibility and allows bulkier small items to be stored in it.
The pack has attachment points on the bottom of the main compartment, the front of the rain compartment, both side pockets and the lid to allow more equipment to be attached should the need arise.
The straps for the main compartment have Velcro strap tidies to prevent the straps flapping around here there and everywhere and potentially getting caught up branches, brambles or scrub.
The back of the Northern Ireland pack is padded for extra comfort as are the shoulder straps. The waist belt is rather rudimentary but as this is a military pack the waist belt is only to keep the pack close to the body not offer any weight bearing as it is designed to sit over webbing or an assault vest.
The pack is made from IRR (Infra-Red Reflective) DPM cordura material so you should be aware it can take some abuse and shrug it off.
PLCE Assault Vest - £40 posted.
This consists of a typical waistcoat design fastened with three itw nexus clips. Two triple ammunition pouches are situated on the left hand side along with a utility pouch, small utility pouch and a zippered dump pocket with an internal holster. The right side is similar but with three large utility pouches, along with a small utility pouch and again a zippered dump pocket with notepad holder. All pouches close with nexus fastex clips as well as having storm seals.
The vest is adjusted via 4 ladderlock fasteners and webbing, the shoulders are adjustable with velcro. The idea is to gain a secure load carrying system that fits over body armour comfortably.
Web-tex Chest Rig - £20 posted.
Made from 1000 denier waterproof Cordura
Consists of:
Three magazine pouches
Two large pouches
Large internal map pocket
Press-studs on shoulder strap to attach radio pouch
Available in British DPM
I have attached a knife pouch to one of the shoulder straps.
Any questions please feel free to ask.
