    Default Swedish Military Rucksack

    Guests can not see images in the messages. Please register in the forum.

    Just picked-up one of these from Numrich. $9 and no increase in shipping with a rifle sight that I bought. Interesting, but not exactly practical for a Ruck. NO straps to carry it like a pack. Looks like it may attach to a frame of some sorts. Has the rubberized cloth that is nice for around here though. Seems OK built. I may try it on one of my empty Alice frames. Not what I expected, but I think it can be used for something. Maybe cut all of the extraneous straps off of it, add a shoulder strap, and use it for a messenger bag.

    Hard to tell the height from the picture, but the one on the left makes it look more like a range bag.

    It looks like it would strap down very nice in the back of my Ski Doo.

    If you want one with straps then get this one. It's the same price.

    I love foreign army surplus.

    Lineman, that sack on the top half of an alice frame would work great IMO.

    Rick, how can you beat that deal. Heck, there's $10 worth of fastex buckles on it.

    Out of stock on that one.
    The one I got is 22" High X 28" Wide. All on all not exactly what I was expecting as a Ruck, but better than I was expecting in build quality. Just have to figurw out what I want it to do and make it work.
