Thread: packs what to buy?

Just got a KarrimorSF Sabre 60-100.
http://www.karrimorsf.com/index.php/...-100-plce.html

Have loaded it up with what I would take on a weekend and also a longer trip. Absoulutly no problems fitting stuff in. 100L config would easily mean a good load of meat, and all camp gear.

Really like that its expandable from 60L - 100L with a quick unzip. What they dont say is that besides the 60L and 100L config, it can be compressed/zipped up even further to be about 25-30L and using a different zip combo, out to about 45L-50L....... super versitle!
Can also get accories inlcuding extra 12.5L PLCE rocket packs to zip on the sides later for a mega load (and a yoke to make them into a day pack)..... not likely I'll need that though.

Comes with a raincover which I can see being used and ground sheet/tarp also.

Harness system is freaking awesome!
Probably the most comfortable I've tried. Its fully adjustable on the fly, you can tweak the whole system on the go as you need without taking it off. Have seen some vids of UK military loading them up with 80-100kgs for a 8 mile charity event..... packs and guys seem to handle the loads pretty well.

Down sides.
Its not a bush stalking pack, the fabric isn't quiet. Its more a leave at camp pack and take the little day/hydration pack out with me I think.
Weight, not the lightest at 3.9kgs but the harness syetem makes up for it and the versatility is worth it I reckon.
I might be tempted to pack a few luxuries.
Not the cheapest, but if you can find a deal its well worth a look.

New models in the UK have some pretty nice camo options too if you want to geek out

Oh and its milspec construction if that helps anything.

That bag is massive @chris-b,
you'll have so much extra room now you'll be able to carry my gear too!
