You're right, the recon pack would probably be more suitable for most hikes since the main pack is pretty big, but for 5-days hikes the main has -so far- been great for me!
Yeah, I'm pretty happy for the price. I should receive it tomorrow, if Canada Post doesn't screw me again.
I gave the link to a friend who was interested in buying one (there was not much left) and as soon as I know that he dealt with it, I'll post it if there's anyone else interested. This surplus had a bunch of Gen1 and a few Gen2, too.
For the hydration pack, I've already got a USMC camelback in CB as well as a few spare ILBE compatible buckles, so if anyone knows or has pictures showing exactly how it attaches to the main pack, it'd be appreciated.
Thanks!
