My local military surplus store used to sell lightweight ruckacks for 75$ each when the local Air Force base was liquidating its vietnam war stock for ALICE gear 😔
Hi Spartan the P62 and P64 have welded frames. The P65 utilizes one horizontal high back strap where in the P68 uses a high and mid horizontal back straps. What you have is the P65 since it has a set of high back strap guides on the side of the frame where in the P68 has 2 sets of guides. Hope this helps keep up the solid tutorials grunt
No problem!!! Happy it helped you out, I know this LW ruck and it’s mess of straps can be a bit overwhelming! I know it was for me till, I got the pleasure of having a few veterans show me how they mounted their packs! I know some people have different ways to mount their pack, there are so many ways to make it work! Thank you for the comment!
Spartan how you doing, I have a question, where did you get all your materials like the shoulder boards, cargo straps and cargo Buckles. I would really appreciate it if you could tell me. Delta mike 327
Hello my friend! I’m doing great and I hope you are too. I got my ruck complete so I didn’t have to search for the components individually. That being said I don’t have any info or links I can provide sadly. Just keep your eyes out on eBay. Also if you have Facebook try joining some of the Nam groups and posting you are in search of said item! Hope that helped!
