The M is the Finnish Border Guards-Sisis’ Patrol sack. The ‘suck’ shoulder straps are For shouldering weapons without interfering. Given they go out in often cold conditions In heavier clothing, and keep loads to 30 L The system works.
Definitely not arguing the logic with the thinner strap that does make perfect sense I've had many years with a ruck on my back in the military and have found that shouldering a weapon can be tough at times with bulkyer gear. I definitely love this pack it's built like a tank and will continue to use it hopefully for years to come thanks for commenting
Good job , sold mine and went smaller !! And yes the straps do suck , changed mine out to some old ALICE LC2 straps I had from WAYYYYYY back in the day. So JMHO the bigger the pack ,the more crap you gonna fill it with, it's just human nature , best to pack whatever you "think" you need and then hit the trail. Not the yard or the living room, I mean trail. Nature will take it's course and you will either get really good at rucking a heavy load , or your pack will get lighter. Cheers !! New sub, and also in the same A.O.
I think i struggle with my mind set on needs and always pack to worst case scenario deapite mostly just doing day trips lol. I would agree a bigger pack can make one pack more crap for sure!
I had one of these. Sold it for something larger. Actual capacity was too small for what I needed it to be but it's built too heavy (if that makes sense) for using it as a real daypack. The suspension isn't good enough for carrying real weight either. Rather go up to a true frame. My final recommendation is stop strapping shit to the outside and buy a bag around 20L, 40L, and 60L+ with the latter two having a real frame of some kind.
Thanks for the thoughts, I do have several packs with frames all being larger packs. I feel this is more than adequate for a daypack as it easily holds 30L + and the aluminum frame does add support for sure. As for the addition of pouches to the pals webbing I think that is what makes this a versatile pack depending on the needs of the trip. Thanks for commenting.
