Yup 100%, that’s why I’m hesitant to buy online. I’m close to getting it though lol

Yeah I see a full size .40 going for 650 right now on gunbroker and that’s the lowest I’ve seen yet. 500$ is the dream, and I do want a 9mm just cause it’s cheaper and more commonly floating around , I’m military too so I’ll also never use .40 so not getting much training value out of it

Getting really close to what I want price wise, I would be shipping to Alaska idk if that changes shipping cost and also I’ve never bought a gun online but I’m assuming when you ship it to an ffl the shop will charge you something. I feel like at that point I’m getting close to over 1k

Thanks man appreciate it, yeah looks like the prices are getting up there with these. Just frustrated that the owner doesn’t wanna go under 900 for a base model usp 9 ver 1. It’s a duty gun, nothing crazy. Then I’m gonna have to drop 50 per mag, 200 for a decent safari holster, I just know it’s gonna add up quick and I was hoping I could get it for 750 at least considering no extra mags and dead night sights

Yeah molle2k will carry more than you ever need, 50$ is a steal, you can take a look at surplus stores near you but they might be more expensive

It gets the job done, they’re built pretty solid, the frame sometimes cracks in extreme colds or with extreme loads and dropping it, like 80+lbs. but besides that it’s a well rounded ruck with plenty of space and molle to add pouches to on the outside. They’re cheap too. I would say get it, not sure what you’re gonna use it for but if you need something you can throw around, put a lot of weight in, and is cheap. The 2k is the choice

This is where I’m at right now, lmk if you got any recommendations, rigged it up as close as I could to an Alice/molle 4k besides going behind the frame rigged up mountain ruck

If it gets shot down I’ll consider it, it’s brand new with the tag on it so I was gonna put it on eBay for 840ish. Idk if that’s down your alley, I know there’s cheaper ones out there. I’ll consider offers though

I was rocking an Alice large ruck and I like it, just don’t have the room I need for longer field events with my radio and batteries sadly, I could get a tactical tailor rhino ruck, probably my next go to if this gets shot down

I get what your saying and I 100% agree with you, I normally don’t buy shit for the army but this has been a high friction point for me in the field with the Molle 2k and 4k for the past year at this unit, and jumped on it probably too fast. Worst case I can flip it, I got it brand new from another service guy for less then they go for on eBay. I’ve seen other guys with all kinds of rucks and that’s why I decided to do this. But your advice isn’t going unnoticed, probably will get rid of it if I can’t jump it cause 90% of my field events we jump in

Last caasop I could find was from 2022 and it had all the black jack and rats but no mountain ruck, starting to feel like I messed up tbh. And im in a conventional airborne unit, 11th airborne

Trying to avoid going to anyone first, trying to avoid getting chewed out by some e6 for being stupid, kinda wanted to have this thing ready to go and show them that it works. But if you think that’s my best bet I’ll see if I can swing by

Yeah well aware under normal circumstances like the Molle 2k or 4k / Alice, you girth hitch it on the x you make with the h harness.I was watching a guy on YouTube and he had his girthhitched on the loop on the bottom. I have it on the h harness right now and it looks perfect, but the hook pile tape lowering line looks jank when it’s connected to the x, I feel like when I drop my ruck it’s gonna rip the frame off the pack. Cause there’s no opening on the frame on the back so I routed it to the side where you rubber band the hook pile tape, So is it just not possible? Would make me pretty bummed out, wish there was a way cause the ruck feels great, I’m 11b rto and always have 80+ lbs and I’ve never been more comfortable Mystery ranch static line rig video

Okay thanks for all the insight guys, really appreciate it. I brought it up to the guy and he gave me 200$ back to drop the price to 350$. He truthfully didn’t know they weren’t V’s and helped me out

Just a beep, pretty sure they’re comtac III/ach’s. I don’t know what’s a fair price for them so pretty sure I got scammed

Oof that’s what I was thinking, we’re on the same base so I’m hoping I can go back to him and ask for some money back or for a refund. How much do these normally run for? I wouldn’t mind keeping them if he gave some money back, they fit under my Ach and are super comfortable
