Made a pack bag out of 500D Flame Retardant coated Cordura; in Coyote Brown. It should be an useful size, and useful bag overall for many things.
Specs;
19x12x8.75ish (was going to be 9" deep but seams precluded that, whoops lol)
7 rows of MOLLE 1" webbing on main body
2 rows of ALICE 2" webbing on main body
3 rows of MOLLE on lid and bottom
USGI hardware used throughout.
Coyote Brown side release buckles from National Molding,
ITW Nexus for the D-rings and ladderloc friction buckles
US manufactured black oxide tri-bar tabs
Dritz Fashion Grommets in flat black; .5" hole diameter
USGI gutted OD Paracord for drawcord
National Molding barrel lock for drawcord retention
The bag attaches to the FILBE frame, from the bottom to top, via the ladder loc buckles at the bottom; same as ALICE, to the 2 black tabs on the frame upper corners, same as MOLLE II series, and 1.5" D rings interfaced with the FILBE yoke's load stabilizer buckles (same as the LBV Patrol Bag attachment with the D-rings on the bottom of LBV)
There are two side compression straps that attaches to the FILBE frame's side horns via the black tabs, and to the pack via the USMC chest rig Duraflex surface mount buckles, which are removable and can be placed on other things.
The pack can be used without a FILBE frame/suspension, by using the 4 D-rings and ALICE type shoulder straps that can be found in Coyote Brown from either Tactical Tailor (Super Straps), or Fireforce USA. Not sure who else makes similar shoulder straps in CB. Can use OD ALICE straps if one is old school cool
Shown with USMC IFAK pouches and canteen covers, and compared to the FILBE bag and USGI Large ALICE pack
