Johnyboy, what is that pouch on the front of your sting?
Sorry for the thread jack but does anyone know anything about the Dutch 110L Bergan on SurplusandLost? Looks to have a similar back system as the Sting... Another Lowe Alpine?

It's the Dutch Army salient by lowe alpine, johnboys pic above
Have a good read about the Saracen, think it is quite a heavy bag compared to the Vulcan. If you don't need the molle or the floating lid go for the Vulcan 1 (the Vulcan 2 are MMPS), really liking mine and surprisingly not that heavy empty, so much so I am selling off all of my PLCE stuff soon.
You've just reminded me! Here was my back up plan if I didn't win the auction:

It's the same pack by the looks at an exceptional price!
Thanks for all the explanations with the various attachments, I know much more now. Is anyone using those black plastic fasteners that are on either side just below the lid? They are just there with no purpose on mine at the moment
You're correct santaman, but the sellers here seem to use the two names interchangeably; it's not at all uncommon to see both names used in the same advertisement, but the stingray is a much less common pack to find in the flesh............................
I've got one up for sale....
