Some new vintage

[pmclaine]

And the reason why…….

Next time I’m humping steel plates 500 or 600 yards It won’t be with them cradled in my arms. I’ll have T post, post hammer, plates and spray paint all neatly contained.

Pack shelf…….even a pop up little gadget to provide a place to sling my rifle….

Also got some new camouflage outerwear…

My favorite pattern….I think it’s pretty good for the northeast.

Original material was being used as curtains in a military barracks in czechoslakia.

Getting some durable water repellent treatment in my heat room.

Over the years I have humped a lot of elk quarters on a frame just like that. LOL

The idea of it makes me think it’s a load bearing mother but it looks like the straps would be a weakness.

Needs some means to transfer the weight to the wearers hips.

Be a good “flat bed” though for walking the 500 or so yards on my friends property without ruining a soft pack.

My buddy has a SXS up there but he has impeccable timing to show up just after the last post and target has been set.

Beautiful set up you have there. Pretty country. Where is it?
You are correct, those packboards can kick you in the shoulder/upper back. I never did have any problems with the straps.
Say hello to Pierce for me. FM

A good friends land.

Pierce drops down from the green mountain regions just north.

That's a smart idea. I wonder if you could modify it to work with the newer molle pack straps and hip belt?

Gonna man it up like the Greatest Generation that would strap three tins of ,50 cal and a couple mortar rounds on each side than do endurance runs to warm up.
