Nice looking 50l rucksack...

[mikergj]

I follow on from the thread that Mountainm started. At this moment in time I am thinking this is probably the best bargain I have ever purchased. At £19.99 it seems to be extremely good value. It is sturdy, seems to be well made, but I guess I will find out how well it is made once I get it out in the field.

It is fairly heavy on its own but does feel comfortable on the back, I am looking forward to getting out and about with this and if it starts to fall apart I will let you no immediately, ha ha. But to be honest I dont think there is any chance of this.

I apologise if there is to many pics but some one did ask for plenty of picks.

Can you do some more with your standard loadout in it?

That way we can get an idea of what it can hold.

 

[FerlasDave]

Wow Im impressed. +1 on the loadout. Also where do I get one from?

 

[mountainm]

More Pics! That's ace - like Res. said can you show us what you can fit in it?

I would love to show you what kit I will be carrying , but at the moment my kit is incomplete. Still getting it all together. I still need a bivi bag and a tarp, so if any one can help there. I recently bought myself a honey stove, flint and striker,a 12cm billy can and a flallkniven f1. I have a highlander lite doss bag and I stayed out Saturday night and it was not to comfortable, so that needs replacing. If you can wait a week or two I will hopefully have all my kit together and will show you what and where I will be putting it in the sack.

I know there a little more expensive but I'm considering these.

Trakker NXG 45ltr
Fox stalker rucksack.

Both are well made and available on eBay. The fox one was discontinued a couple of years ago but worth looking For.

The TFG gear is well made and also available in a real tree type camo.

Mike, thanks for posing the pictures. Can you give a rough idea how tall it is and how wide from the outside of one pocket to the other? I know it's 50l but I'm just trying to compare it with my old sack.

 

[mountainm]

I bought one too... couldn't resist!

Its roughly 650mm high and 500mm wide,hope that helps. I got to say I am absolutely chuffed with this sack. I know I have yet to test it, but I think its going to be the business. £19.99

Yes, many thanks, very helpful. It's a little bigger than I need but for the price I could be tempted.

I will show it with full load out when it arrives - also found a 5% (£1) off voucher code.

It's an established fishing brand, carp fishing at that. One thing I wouldn't question is its durability. The carp lads aren't generally a gentle bunch and as has been said before this will have been designed to carry some heavy gear. When it arrives I'll let you know.

That price is great, looks like a nice bag too! Link to buy??
