No worries, SC...I'll be sure to 'hook you up' on this next project. You wanted 'em in purple Cordura, right?

Karma being what it is, you may want to do some research into digging snow caves after that comment.

Yes Sir. It should match my pink Ruck perfectly. I will fit in perfectly if I ever get deployed to San Fransisco.

He got a good deal on a roll of purple and is trying to dispose of it, mainly to noobs.

I told him it would be fine as long as it was trimmed in gold and had a Crown Royal patch in the middle

First HST and then alcohol, I am beginning to regret my earlier comments about you catching on quickly.

Are you old enough to be legally drinking CR?

I just completed my version of the ALICE pack with PALS idea.
Pack is the Large sized ALICE.
Attached frame is the Mystery Ranch NICE v. 2.


I bought all of the webbing and fabric from http://www.diytactical.com
Be advised, DIY Tactical sells out quickly and it takes a while for them to get restocked.

Webbing is 1 in. Webbing, Coyote Brown, 43668 Type III
Storm flap is made from MARPAT, 70D 1.9 oz Ripstop with Blackout Coating (waterproof, tan side out)
Velcro is 3 inch wide, Olive drab
Fastex buckles are in Foliage Green

If you have any questions feel free to send me a PM.

It took about a month of me working in my off time.

If you guys are modding rucks - I'm not too far from Seattle Fabrics - ask Crip about the quality of the webbing - I hadn't seen this ruck mod, I got 3 yds of OD 2" webbing and 6 yds of black 2" webbing, with 6 or 8 fasteners for a 'care package' because that was the kind of stuff we always needed and had a hard time finding way back in the dark ages...

Here's the link - they carry sailing and outdoor fabrics of all kinds at great prices:

The brick and mortar store is hard to find - it's behind a huge photinia hedge and only has about 10 parking spots - DO NOT BRING ANY MORE $$ THAN YOU WISH TO PART WITH - they have goretex cordura and goretex ripstop in tactical colors/paterns... you have been warned.
