So, I recently bought a mess of different mostly MOLLE II bits off Fleabay. I had a MOLLE II large ruck and wanted the assault pack, ended up also getting an FLC and some other stuff to fill in some holes in the stuff I had on hand.
Turns out I apparently don't 100% need the backpack. I was planning on using the stuff for camping etc and I got everything I needed for a minimalist couple of days in the woods on the FLC and in a couple of sustainment pouches and the butt pack that ride out of the way over my rump. It also carries better than any pack I've ever worn, leaves me with a lot more freedom of movement and distributes the weight better. I even have a firearm and mags on there.
Also, if I still need more stuff, I can throw the assault pack on with less load in it and save my old bones some aching. I wish I had thought of this before! I may have to do one of these with AK mags, basic food, water and shelter on it.
