ronin677 Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Hi all, Just found this and I think with slight modifications I can almost pass this off as a Viet Nam era lightweight rucksack frame. Its obviously got differences but the main one is the price. £15 as opposed to £200 Thought I'd just share DEF 1
ronin677 Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 Here is one that has been modified. That will do for me My OCD will cope with this
ronin677 Posted July 2, 2015 Author Posted July 2, 2015 Here is what I finally ended up with. Not perfect by any way but close enough and only a fraction of the cost DEF 1
deebo Posted July 2, 2015 Posted July 2, 2015 Fair play, looks good. I probably would have cheated and just run with a webbing yoke yo look like something out of platoon lol
Rich83 Posted July 3, 2015 Posted July 3, 2015 I think that's a GS bergan frame and they are pretty close to the ALICE. What's wrong with just using an ALICE frame for 'Nam stuff?
ronin677 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Posted July 3, 2015 The ALICE frame is just the wrong era. This thing looks almost identical to the period lightweight ruck DEF 1
ronin677 Posted July 3, 2015 Author Posted July 3, 2015 This is the ALICE frame This is an original Lightweight Rucksack frame and this is my version DEF 1
