OK, let's try this again with a low, low price! I'm selling my genuine issued DPM British Army Northern Ireland Patrol Pack. These are great, bomb proof packs to start off with, but I had mine professionally modified to make it a unique and highly versatile rucksack. The changes I've made include:
- Removed the original small side pockets and had PLCE zips and clips sewn on to accommodate the standard British Army PLCE side pouches (two included in sale).
- A panel of MOLLE webbing sewn onto the front of the pack to take various compatible pouches (three included in sale!)
- Side slip pockets sewn onto the side of the pack for things you want to access without having to open the main pack (e.g. water bottle) or to carry long, thin things behind the PLCE side pockets (e.g. walking polls).
This is a genuine British Army pack, not a cheap copy! It's an issued pack, but it's in surprisingly good, clean condition, apart from a unit badge, name and number on the back of the pack (which can't be seen by anyone when you're carrying it anyway, plus it adds some authenticity!). The main pack is about 33lt, and the PLCE side pouches and large MOLLE front pouch (more about that below) add another 25lt in total. This gives you a flexible pack size of between 33lt and 58lt, which means you can use it as a day pack or for overnight/weekend trips. It's still surprisingly comfy even when carrying a heavy load.
Also included in the sale are:
- Two issued DPM PLCE side pouches (10lt each)
- New Viper large OD MOLLE utility pouch (5lt)
- New Condor padded OD MOLLE H20 water bottle pouch with pocket on front
- New Maxpedition foilage green MOLLE Mini Pocket Organiser (plus two TacTies to attach it to the MOLLE panel)
- Custom made long canvas bucksaw case that clips on to the PLCE clips on one side instead of a pouch
All this provides for an amazing and versatile set up, that you can adapt to your needs at the time. I've used the main pack and PLCE side pockets for various excursions, but they're in very good nick. Apart from the pack and side pockets, everything else is new and barely, if at all, used. All zips, clips, straps, etc. are in perfect working order on everything.
Sad to see it go, but need to make space/raise funds for forthcoming baby (plus a couple of sneaky last minute bushcraft purchases!).
To buy everything included in this sale today would cost upwards of £175 including the cost of modifying the pack (about £60). This is what I spent putting it all together. However, I do need to move this on, so I'm looking for NOW ONLY £55 including postage and PayPal fees for a quick sale (the pouches alone cost £80 to buy!). Whoever buys this pack won't be disappointed! It's one of a kind.
