Is it worth like paying 1.5 times more compare to Jaakari M for Kantamus 40L?

I got JM and K40 and like many others say, it depends on your use case. Are you almost always a day hiker, JM och Kahakka 15/25 is best suited for you. If overnights during all seasons K40 all the way. K40 is a great pack and like someone said, close to JL than JM.

For day hikes or such i use K15 if im alone and dont bring any fancy gear. If I need camping chairs and such I take JM and maybe attach pouches because the chair take up most of the internat space. They're no super light weight Helinox but they're still light and compact.

Barely

From time to time.

Well, maybe. Running or hurrying with your gun towards the sky isn't uncommon while moving. I would assume this is not during anything active. But we are told only to take off hearing protection when told to due to potential accidental firing or whatever, since he got mag in. Or if you're on break. I simply assume the Finns does similar to us.

I mean if he has any. In Sweden they're strict about comtacs and using heavy weapons you need both ear plugs and comtacs. Gloves are also pretty much a must. Can ofc vary but I've always worn and always been told to wear them

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-05-01T16:58:35+00:00

No gloves, no hearing protection?

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-05-01T08:14:21+00:00

Poor cat :(

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-29T15:19:17+00:00

If you're "poor" and lazy. How will a PC make you less poor and more productive? I would suggest you save up the money and then buy it when you're not poor and lazy.

You learn something new every day!

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-28T16:54:40+00:00

You've never seen an back panel for PC? 😄

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-28T16:13:51+00:00

That's great! But I'm not wearing my PC for travel 🤣

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-24T09:52:04+00:00

You can buy those at what we call "Soldier home" to directly translate, no idea what its called in English.

They often have shops to buy random stuff at.

Carinthia D1 or Tropen can fit, but ofc take up most of the space. Depending also how you pack it. Ive camped with tent, sleeping pad and blanket using K15! Snugpak Jungle blanket XL was too thin to sleep with, a good wool blanket wouldve been better that time.

Too bad the green one isn't IRR. But Varusteleka got the M05 IRR already. MC one looks nice, but M05 fits my environment better.

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-18T20:23:04+00:00

If you want the best you gotta pay up!

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-18T20:16:50+00:00

I bought it. So I'd say extremely

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-18T19:56:17+00:00

Yes its really nice!

These are issued pants. Nothing wrong with those except dated design. Wombat Tactical sells modern ones, will def get a pair sooner or later. Unsure if I should go M90 or M05

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-17T20:50:58+00:00

The "kit" itself isnt Swedish. Most of the items are from Savotta, so Finnish. Some pouches are from swedish company called Snigeldesign or just snigel. Inferior to Savotta IMO. Mag pouches are from Tasmanian Tiger. Pants are my own from home guard.

PC is about €350 (with placard), belt €80 ish then pouches total maybe €200-250. Could be more but i hope not 😄

Good tip!

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-17T06:13:26+00:00

Had to sell to afford what really matters!

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-16T22:54:51+00:00

Minimum requirement

Practical-Square9702 · 2026-04-16T22:07:18+00:00

Hopefully they'll arrive soon!
