One of the Best Military Packs! - Forceprotector (FPG) FOR83 Marpack Backpack 

Hey Luke, great video, my son has one like that and he loves it, strength and honor my friend.

Great review Luke. Some interesting aspects to this pack. Stay safe. atb Opal

Mil-spec is always top of the line material, but also most of the time compromise weight. I still remember when I ETS from the military I begun doing hikes & I used to use my Molly-II system. The first hike was a killer. I carried over 50 lbs. at the the AT. Can you imagine that? Crazy right? You know I was still had the military mentality & it was hard for me to understand the lighter the better when it come to hiking world. Thanks Luke!

Table Saw....... Keep up the good work, Look forward to your reviews......

Would have to say a super sharp SILKY Ultra by accident ;~ )) Was looking at SOS for my deployment to N.Iraq in a few wks, will look into this one definately. thanks Luke, happy trails & a super Thanksgiving!!

Good vid. Thanks. Keep em coming.

I'm going to say a saw of some sort.. Great review BTW, Pretty good looking pack.

Definitely one of the best.

Awesome video, looks like you can put everything including the kitchen sink into that backpack

Thanks, --- Clark

Looks like it's melted on one side, but torn on the other side. I would guess a saw like a lap lander or a bow saw. For the melted looking parts, I'll take a random guess at a metal hotdog stick! hah great video and a nice score!!

Nice little pack :) - Martin

I love your videos!! I cant wait for your next overnight adventure.Looks to me like the damage to your pack was done by a chainsaw??

I'm wondering if your house has an old-fashioned in-floor heater like our mountain house, with a floor grate that gets hot and you laid your pack on the floor and it fell over and touched part of the grate...

Nice review Luke, as usual. The FPG web site claims the 4500+ cubic inch capacity (74 liters) you mentioned. Do you agree with the size? I have one of these packs and it appears to be significantly smaller than 74 liters, perhaps 50 to 55 liters at most. Aside from that question, I agree the FOR83 is a high quality, well constructed pack. And you're right: it's quite comfortable even with heavy loads. Thanks for your video!

Hey Luke, great review. How does the quality of this bag measure up to the specops recon Alice pack that you reviewed a few months back? Looks like you may have laid it down on some sort of saw, i.e. Chainsaw.

Keep it up with the awesome videos!! Would love more adventure and less ads/reviews. Have to agree with the chainsaw theory. Late to the show, but that's my $0.02.

Now, that's what I'm "not" talkin' about.....I grew up using army surplus packs when I was 10.....want nothing to do with that style now. As soon as I decide to start going on maneuvers I will get me one.

My guess is pack got burn by theTruck muffler, good channel Luke!

I think you set the pack on your chain saw without the guard on and then dragged it across the teeth when retrieving it. Looks like a nice pack anyway.

Nice lookin pack, helpful review aswell. I'm gonna guess that you laid the pack down on or next to a hot grill rack for the fire pit or the grill accidentally fell on it somehow. Greetings from Germany

Luke, Going out on a limb, could the damage be caused by Barb Wire? Ken T

No wait I got it! pillow damage right?

I guess a lawn mower... why not lol. pack looks cool, but i wonder if it comes in other colors. Tans not bad though!

Check put the kelty falcon 66 (4000)... Would love to know your thoughts

Was it a hot grill grate? Looks like there's some melting damage there.

damage look like soldering stick anyway love all youre video luke tc :)

did u have lil blue speaker cranked up.and put on the pack?

did u lay seam sealer tube on it.then tear it off.after thinking.those marks same width as tarp seam.u laid it on tarp

It seems that if you've seen one or two different packs you've seen them all. I do appreciate and love your reviews though.

Seems to have gotten pinched in some kind of conveyor, like a luggage carousel. I dunno...but it's driving me nuts. Hope to find out soon! lol

Looks like you leaned it against a fire pit grill grate.

im guessing a running chain saw while on lone wolf mountain

But what did you lay the backpack on that damaged it? :/

did you lay it on a hot cooking grate?

Looks like a hot barrel mark to me. Did I win?

Very identical to the Dutch 3 day assault pack sold by Varusteleka.

Did you lay it on something or what I'm just making sure

HI LUKE, I was wondering if I can pick your brain. I know you have done reviews on numerous packs and I was wanting your opinion. Recently someone broke into my car and took my Camelback BFM pack with my EDC items. It was an expensive pack filled with a lot of EDC items. I want to start all over again (now that I have calmed down) but I don't want to get another expensive pack. I would like to get a decent, well made, reasonably priced pack. In all your reviews, I was wondering if you had any recommendations. I also wanted you to know that I am keeping you and your family in my thoughts and prayer and you have limited time to answer. Thanks for the videos and the adventures...Sometimes when I can't get away I take a trip to Lone Wolf Mountain with you. Ken T

Chainsaw would be my guess.

i like it

What, no owl pillow... Say it's not so. A backpack review without Mr Owl is not a complete review. LOL

I'm guessing you accidentally leaned it on a hot metal grill because of the melting and the two gashes on the raised section

A Boat propeller scratched the rucksack ?

Was it a rock or some jagged metal you dropped it on?

You put it down on the edge of a hot camp fire grill. Larry Kolikoff

$439??? LOL I don't think this will be on my wish list any time soon. Military surplus used to be just that. Surplus. And it was bought by wholesalers by the pallet and sold pretty much by the pound. Things have changed quite a bit since I was in my 20s...

But is it Mil-spec?

top best 2 u both 😊

You rested the bag on a lawn mower in the back of your car?

It had something to do with a saw?

My guess is that moose took a bite out of it with his fan.

The damage might be from a work sharp.

looked like a chain saw that maybe just stopped running.. and if u watched any of my videos,,, I use military back packs...

Susan's curling iron!

The grill from a heater

table saw?

you layed the pack on a sharp rock

Was it from a fan belt on a running engine? lol

did you lay it on a hot grill

i think it was your saw lol

Fire pit?

Barbed wire?

looks like a heater did that

I see a price of $439 that's not $70 am I looking at the wrong pack?

I really love your reviews but this one really looks a bit too much like advertising.... Are you just fascinated by the pack or are you paid for reviews by the makers ?

Very skeptical of that pack being 74.5L capacity

You leaned it against a fire ring

beats the hell out of one of them whussie osprey's...woods

Gonna guess you were working on a tablesaw in the shed and had that thing standing up next to the blade where it fell onto it?

looks like it got against a Hot grill or stove !

hot car radiator?

Table saw

i dislike multiple access. i prefer one durable acess to one-main-compartment.

hot grill or hot stick

Looks like the damage from a hot rifle barrel.

I think you laid it down on your chainsaw Luke.

Maybe a chainsaw? Awesome review by the way!

Clearly Bigfoot or Lone Wolf claw damage. Does the Forceprotector Marpack have an actual self protection system to protect it from Lone Wolf, Bigfoot or burn damage from your fire grill? What's their warranty? I hope they have a good one for that price. I'd absolve myself of any responsibility for my own stupidity and blame it on aliens.

Scratch from a Canadian grizzly bear!

or u laid it on top of tarp for ride home and it stuck to tarp

Laid on a table saw :)

Looks like a hand saw did the damage

I was beat to my guess, but ill say it anyway : chainsaw

my guess u asked susie something she didnt like.she punched u ducked cut with wedding ring

angle grinder?

Looks likes a chain saw bit it lol

439 Dollars & just one .. NO WAY !

An electric floor heater

Maybe some barbed wire.

My guess is chainsaw or angle grinder

Was it a chainsaw?

Ooooo ooooo a stupid sharp rock

table saw

u laid it on seam sealer syringe.

Definitly a chainsaw ⚒⚒ but nice looking pack. Not a lightweight

a hot grill

Got it caught on some barbed wire

It looks like a saw blade

chainsaw I would guess..
