you can do it very easy you have 2 straps on what i called the downtube which takes kit [you missed out that] you can even carry a fart sack on the bottom its simple it was designed for fast ops but guys went 3/4 days just on that, it was designed for vehicle use but 2/3 day foot ops no problem
Excellent stuff
That gear was 40 years ahead of its time. Phenomenal rigs.
Unreal gear
Really cool piece of kit!
Keep the content coming!
Cheers buddy
Hey friend that would be awesome for a hammock setup
Cool, even with an under blanket
Now you know what room you have, design the overnight kit to fit the vest, not the other way round.
I noticed Bruno was right there to help too. What a good boy.
Lol, he is

I have the P83 battle jacket as well. I removed the separators in all the mag pouches etc to fit larger things in it. I’ve worked out that I can carry everything I need for 48 - 72 hours in the thing. Over 48 hours I’d need to start catching fish or trapping. Over 72 hours I’d need to find water. That depends on season though as I’m in Australia where I drink 3 litres a day in summer (outside/inside), and that’s not even tramping about the bush.
That includes a Silky outback 360 saw, Wetterlings bushman axe, 9x9’ tarp & cordage, woobie, IFAK, Austrian mess kit, compass, 6” Diamond sharpening plate (double sided = two grits/very thin), food, 6 litres of water, Lifestraw, brown bag, fire kit, map, notepad and pens, Austrian army shovel, ground sheet, etc etc. Every void is stuffed and the mess kit is filled with food as well. You can even store stuff like salt/sugar in the hollow of the folding shovel.
😂
Straps on either side of the two main back pouches take the biggest and heaviest gear. Straps under the back bottom pouch carries a ground sheet and shovel. Straps on the main back pouches can carry other stuff, like the mess kit, etc.
With the removed dividers I have identical material for repairs.
I used a seam ripper to cut the stitching rather than the fabric. A lot of these jackets are missing anywhere from 2 - 6 attachment straps. I just made 4 new ones for mine.
Edited for more info.
Excellent stuff buddy, cheers
If you made your sleeping kit into a ranger roll and attached it to the bottom of the rig you should have all the space you need?
Good idea, stay tuned
YES it is a wise decision. I am in the states and using a old school US military LBE Y harness set up, along with a small pack for shelter.
Brilliant
Your a mad genius
Lol, you know it
Ah jaysus where's me key's 😂
Lol
In my opinion, a compression bag, a high quality one would definitely give you more room for that sleeping bag, I wouldn't stuff em like that, could wreck it. Love your channel though I am subbing your videos are entertaining and informative.
Lots of molle webbing vests allow more customization with the pouches and their placement, and is why such a rig is a bit venerable even if legendary in it's history. Pre-sewn in pouches have their limitations. Molle webbing vests can interface with rucksacks better too.
Molle webbing belts exist to mount pouches too if you want a low profile belt setup.
LBV, LBE, Belt, theres many tactical gear options that can be repurposed for camping, hiking and bushcraft.
Excellent stuff, cheers buddy
As you started, my thoughts to as advantages; most things in their own pouch, giving easier access to certain items - disadvantage; remembering which pouch stuff is in 🙂and repacking some of those tight fits seems it would be a chore in the field under poor conditions?
(edit to add - definitely something that would work for day trips, with a couple of emergency items in case)
Practice I suppose, wear it a few times and see what fits best where
Nice idea, what about crossfire packs webbing with a 20l zip on bag?
I haven't seen those
To do what you want you will need to get a molly vest and fit it with pouches that fit your gear. I can do an overnight in fair weather with just an Alice war belt minus mag pouches plus ass pack but it will be very bare bones and won't have all your comforts.
Excellent stuff
While I understand the need to have a basic light weight tactical vest set up, having the gear being stowed to the left and right of your body will become a hindrance in mobility, being able to maneuver through out dense woods and such, however if you could combine the USMC ruck sack and the tactical vest , and create a front and rear balance with the arm swing area open you may be on to something, and also be able to ruck out for longer periods of time!
Remember the most important thing you can bring into the forest is not your gear, it is actually your wits and common sense, all else just makes it more comfortable and fun!
Cheers pat
I tried the same thing with a vest, thinking it would spread the load and be more comfortable. I had to strap the sleeping kit to the top of a large pouch on the back. But ultimately I felt like marshmallow man, unable to drop my arms by my side. And I had increased the number of points that the vest could get caught up on when tramping through thick bush. So it didn't work out for me, but the pouches are great.
Excellent stuff
Carinth.Bivvybag + swiss army straps = sleeping-bag into the bivvybag, "compressed" by one trap, and with anouther mount the thing in a suiting place on the back of the vest? (or the savotta isolated bivvy-bag as replacement for sleeping-bag and bivvy-bag)
I like the way your thinking, I've already shot the follow up vid and that's what I did
@@RedBranchBushcraft yeah, today i kinda think very twisted (damn the typos i wrote..!? the hell is wrong with me??)
Lol
❤❤❤
Cheers buddy
My friends already think I'm mad to be camping in the woods alone at night. Wearing military webbing for a camping trip would probably prove it to be true! But if that's your thing go for it :D
Lol, cheers Jon
Stihl frosty
Good man Bud
I am not sure you onto a winner here, but you will be the one laughing when the zombie apocalypse comes to town.😂
Lol, surrounded by headless zombies
you dont determine what kit to take by what container you have in mind for it. you take the kit you need and find or make a container for that kit.
That makes sense
Leave the food, take the scho ka kola
Lol
Painful to watch but I understand why you are trying to do this!
@@turtlewolfpack6061 why is it painful?
@@RedBranchBushcraft because you know what you like to have but that carrier simply isn't capable of handling it realistically. I believe it does serve a purpose but not with a purpose built ruck kit.
@turtlewolfpack6061 ah I get you, I think I just need to change my thinking a bit
