40l tactical backpack, Sand

36 to 55 litres: the main compartment expands, so the sleeping bag that came out easily still goes back in on the Sunday. MOLLE front, sides and base: a med pouch, a dump pouch and a bottle carrier ride on the outside where you reach them with the pack still on. Oxford outer, nylon lining: hard-wearing face fabric over a smooth inner, so a liner slides in and out without snagging. Contoured shoulder straps: shaped and mesh-padded rather than flat webbing, so a loaded pack sits on the shoulder instead of cutting into it. Bungee cord across the front: the elastic lacing over the front pocket pins a wet jacket or a helmet outside the pack instead of putting it in with your dry kit. The 40L Tactical Backpack: Expandable MOLLE Carriage for Hill Days and Skirmish Weekends Most UK kit lists ask one pack to cover a cadet weekend, a skirmish day and the walk in on a Friday night.
