Helikon Matilda backpack external pouches

[Danqrl]

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone here owns/owned a helikon matilda backpack and if they could help me with a question? My question is are the 3 pouches on the outside of the pack big enough to fit a zebra 12 billy can?

Any help, info or advice anyone has to offer in regards to this backpack will be gratefully received. I'm thinking of buying one this weekend. Being ex military I like the idea of having easy to get to pouches .

I suggest to write them an e-mail as they are obviously interested in us.

Another interesting question is if the by Dave Canterbury designed Pathfinder Bush Pot fits in there. As they work together with Dave Canterbury they surely will think that this is a good question.

Yes and no..... A 12cm Zebra fits in, it is snug but not tight. Hovever, mine has the bail arm removed. I do not think it would fit with the original bail arm attached.

That pot has just half the capacity.
It's more a large mug. That's the size of the issued BCB Crusader mug stainless steel.
But it seems to fit.

(They also sell a clip bail for the Crusader mug, by the way.)

Perhaps that's the same here, perhaps just nearly identic.
Surely the shipping time is far longer.
