The pack is the Lowe Alpine Sting. The pouches as far as I know we're custom made. The owner hasn't been on here for a few years now. Can't remember if he was called Johnnyboy or Johnboy. You should be able to find some off the shelf Molle pouches or get some of them made.
The pack was made in green, black or DPM but good luck in finding the first two and NO I'm lot selling mine unless the price is right.

Them PRI 45l infantry packs, Scoman linked to are decent packs for not alot of money.

I picked one up on ebay for £30 before Christmas, in Desert DPM, only thing they don't come with a waist belt, might be issue if your carrying heavy loads in it. Plenty of molle on it for attaching extra pouches.

I fitted a waist belt to a desert one that I've subsequently sold on. It was enough to transfer the weight. The Karrimor SF one's do have a waist belt if I remember rightly.

Aye, think the SF Predator one's come with a waist belt, and nice price tag to :)

I don't mind mine not having one, find it easier just swinging it off my shoulders when taking if off.

Just shows a bit of diy and you can adapt a pack to suit ;)

Was going to add. That if you want a 55 ltd pack the Lowe alpine sting is perfect I have an OD one with one PLCE side pouch and one Medic side pouch with an admin pouch in the middle
Perfect after I sold on my trusty old Vulcan 2 which has to much load carry space for bushcraft ;)

No not selling mine either will go to the kids


There are 2 versions the Sting and Stingray one it one main pouch the other has a drawstring separator at the bottom with a zip access if you want separate compartments .

These are generally found in DPM and ex Dutch military .

Stingray had the front zip to allow access to the bottom section under the drawstring divider.
Never understood why they weren't more popular. Still got my Vulcan and won't part with either.
