Do you need a 1000D Cordura bag that weighs 10lbs empty or is what you have good enough?

Their quality is great. Just a matter of whether the features are optimal for you.

Don't support those assholes

Varusteleka has gone in such a shit direction over the past few years. When's the last time they even had a fresh surplus haul?

They rebranded after the global surplus markets went dry. There's no more surplus.

They've literally made he Finnish military gear for the past century soon. Every FDF reservist is familiar with their stuff.

If you want quality stuff that lasts a life time, you buy their stuff. If you want cheap Chink shit, Temu is for you.

I'm still waiting for them to start selling M85 LCE belt repros.

>When's the last time they even had a fresh surplus haul?
They still get small batches of random stuff, but ALL the good stuff has been shipped to Ukraine.
They also literally stopped importing Chink commie shit.

Their business plan was always to slowly transition their primary revenue stream over to new manufactured gear. Surplus is not forever and there's a war coming.

What cunt

What's your gear setup. Big belt enjoyer? No belt?

Are you specifically looking for an external frame?

What models/sizes were you looking at from Savotta?

im playing cod with friends cuz its holidays :)
>>64697567
just for bags i run those two, smaller one is 55L works for a few day and sits weird with the plate carrier, i already bent the aluminum frame a few times i can feel it's being weird, the bigger one is about 75L and while it didnt bend much it sits pretty bad with the plate carrier

i use the hip belt extensively and take it off my back as little as possible cuz on most lightweight rucks i got a very least 20kg in there due to the fucking brick they call a radio

i was looking at the kantamus 40L to replace the smaller one and jump with without a harness and for heavy rucking the Jaakari XL, i ha a external frame backpack and i liked it a lot
on top of that both seem to sit okay with a plate carrier, and i dont think ill bend either considering their frames arent flat
>>
>>64696913
If you want a massive 9lb bag, just get an old belgian m97 and wash the mothball smell out. if you want something that doesnt suck to use, get a modern lightweight pack
>>
>>64697599
my bigger ruck bag is already about 5kgs empty due to additional pouches and stuff for all the shit i have to take
>>64697601
all bags suck to use over 20 miles, i want one that doesnt bend in half when i hit the ground with it
>>
>>64697599
I have an RP80 (essentially an out of production Jaakari XL) and a Crossfire DG16 (New model name is CF4). The former is more comfortable by itself, but the latter is more comfortable with armor.

https://www.crossfirepacks.com/product/cf4/

Crossfire is an Australian company though. Dunno how able you are to import.
>>
>>64697635
>CF4
damn it's massive, i think id rather order from savotta because stuff shipped from america and australia is gonna cost a ton in taxes
ill keep it in mind because it looks real nice
