    Don’t know if you got that bag yet, but to be honest, as a US Army Veteran and tons of field experience because my MOS was as a Forward Observer, I would say that you’re better off looking for a better quality civilian camping backpack with good shoulder and back support. If you’re concerned about covering it up with camouflage you can get camouflage pack covers to put over it. I bought a huge Coleman brand camping backpack, used, at a Salvation Army store really cheap. New it’s worth over $100, but it only cost me $17! And it’s in great shape. I buy a lot of camping gear at second hand stores for my personal use and for my Civil Air Patrol Cadets. I have 4 military rucksacks and tons of other gear that I get at surplus stores, but I actually love that Coleman bag best because it’s designed for long distance carry and is very light on my back even when fully loaded with equipment. The lighter weight of the best civilian equipment is better than the heavier military gear and most of it can be camouflaged if needed. It’s great to support local businesses and especially the surplus stores, but it’s also smart to stretch your buck with great deals on equipment that works. That way you can get more MRE’s. Just my opinion.

    Hum, I need to check this place out ! It's a bit of a drive from Concord, but I'm up to it. Some people on here say this is "JUNK" store, but I think they're missin tha point. Some say ya can get this stuff at a flee market, maybe so, but they're missin tha point. It's stores like this that are vanishing, pretty soon, they'll be gone. This place kinda reminds me of a mom and pops place, how many of those do you still see ? It wouldn't surprise me if most of the stuff in this store isn't made in China, but then again, what isn't ?
    I still remember as a kid going into a real Army Navy surplus store in the early 60's and lookin at what they had. They're all gone now.. I like to support small town stores when I can, a lot of times, you can find what others don't have to offer.
    With this Covid crap goin on, I ain't sittin around, I'll be on the road somewhere, and Clayton sounds like a nice place to visit...
    My point is this, you don't have to buy nuttin, you don't even have to go there, but don't knock a place until you go into business for yourself and make a difference.
