Great pack have thought about selling mine many times but just can't let it go.

Been after one for ages and everywhere seemed to be out of stock. Got it from surplusandoutdoors and they seem to have it listed as the Strike but the pic is definitely of a Sting so fingers crossed. They also have the Saracen in stock if anyone's interested.

I think its your pics that put me onto them in the first place Johnny.

Ok it's far from light but it's built to last and has a great adjustable back system making it very comfy to carry under load.

 

[Johnnyboy1971]

Let us know what you think after a bit of use. Oh and I changed the waist belt buckle to a berghaus one but that's only through preference.

They seem to have a variation of the TFX back-system that I have on my civvie Lowe Alpine pack. I agree the comfiest back system I've tried. Not to fussed about the weight on this one, want it for messing about in the woods rather than climbing mountains.

Yeah I'll post my thoughts on it. Depending on how bad the fading is I might try and dye it too. Seems its possible with acid dyes.

They have it listed as approx. 65 liters; do you know if that's with the side pouches? Or without?

Not sure I was under the impression the sting was 55l plus 2x10l side pockets so who knows.
