WTD: PLCE 30l patrol pack or similiar basic hardwearing ruck for weight training with

[lub0]

Hi all. I do weight training in my garage and use a rucksack loaded with weight plates to perform chinups, dips and calf raises. The rucksack I've been using so far has been fine until the zip bust so I'm looking for a rugged top loader like a british army 30l patrol pack often called an NI pack? Or any sort of similar hard wearing basic ruck that will take the stress of the weight inside. I beleive the austrian/french mountain pack or something similar named would also be ideal.

Let me know what you would like in return as I've got tonnes of spare quality kit lying around.

I also have a couple of these if a deal with Saapper doesn't go ahead.

I'm also open to the german field grey mountain rucksack which looks absolutely ideal for purpose

I've got a 30 L Dutch army daysack, as strong as they come and this is as new............I carried tools in the last one for years and couldn't break it; you can have it for a tenner plus postage.(A tenner's worth of trade)
See if you can tempt me with something, eh?

well what a waste of time typing out those PM's turned out to be!

I actually called kevin at endicotts just after my last post here and ordered one of his german mountain grey packs as it looks absolutely ideal for my purpose cost me £21 delivered.
@macaroon I wish you posted earlier as a quick look on google that dutch pack does looks perfect for purpose I would of saved £10 or so, haha!

The german mountain grey ruck arrived just now. It's not as sturdy as the pictures suggest, and you can roll the thing up in to the sizer of a 1 liter nalgene bottle. I may well still need the NI patrol pack, afterall!

I have an od dutch mountain pack for trade if you are still looking.

Yeah this german mountain grey rucksack is utterly useless for putting weights inside of as it has absolutely no structure or rigidity. I want the NI pack so macaroon if your dutch patrol sack is still available please PM your paypal details. Failing that I'll ask you @driliamski thanks

 

[lub0]

thanks macaroon for the dutch army day pack. It is very sturdy and should be perfect!

 

[Macaroon]

I thought it'd be the thing for the job when I read your post.............hope it suits you sir!
