Great work, "necessity is the mother of invention" as they say. I did the exact same thing with a HSGI Admin Panel. I added a couple of magazine shingles to the front of it and had a great, very low...

BB -

I'd go with the Whisperlite Universal. I've been using a MSR XGK for about 20 years now and it is still going strong. I know a lot of guys in the military that switched over to the...

Welcome to Kifaru! You have the exact same set-up as I do; the KU Koala and the KU 3700. These two packs compliment each other perfectly.

Let us know how the KU line does in AZ - watch out for...

I wouldn't second guess a neurologist when it come to seizure activity, especially with info from the world wide inter web. Anything is possible though, the quick trip to elevation could have...

Dang steveb, you've got a custom Kifaru pack. It's probably worth a million dollars of eBay . . . .

That is exactly how I have my Marauder set-up. When I wear it, it looks like a giant lumbar pack. Incredibly comfortable, almost forget that it's there.

That sounds like a fun challenge. Good luck!

Take care,

I love the Vertx line of clothing. Their combat shirt and VTX 1000 trousers (in whatever color/camo pattern) would make an excellent combat uniform. All of steveb's comments are spot-on. I've got...

Two words: zip-ties.

Don't strap it on, just use the shoulder straps. Wear it "backwards".

Very interesting Ralph. I like his last statement; "buy a gun, you're going to need it."

Wetzel - are you training for an event? Just wondering as 80lbs is a heavy and very specific weight to carry just for exercise.

I've got a porta-potty designed for the Navy SEALs that I'll sell to you for the $200 you save . . .

Great to hear that the Marauder/E&E combo work out well for you! You can also wear the E&E on your front, over the Marauder straps. I've done this many time, can actually help to balance out the...

Thanx for the photo trip! You have picked one of the two best times of year to visit the Grand Canyon area. Havasupai Falls was one place I wanted to visit when we lived in Arizona. Unfortunately, we...

I have to agree. While I do like the new lay-out, there is a lot of info missing. What happened to the Metric measurements for weight and volume? Only stating the Imperial weights and volumes is...

Alaarx,

Get a Marauder with the optional Omni belt. You will not be disappointed. It's bigger than the X-Ray, but I really believe you would be hard-pressed to fit your stated load-out in an...

If CT really wanted to defend the safety of children; why don't they outlaw abortions? Since the Roe v. Wade decision, over 50 million children have been knowingly and legally aborted in our country....

Try a pair of Merino wool boxers; you won't go back to cotton or synthetic. I've been wearing either Ibex or Falke boxers for over a year now and they beat both cotton and synthetic underwear...

@sdnative13,

No, all the KU packs have frames attached. Actually, the majority of Kifaru packs have the frames permanently attached to the pack bag.

I just looked at the pole. It is tied right now.

Doesn't look good for CO . . . Guess I will not be moving back there. At least a vast majority are against "civil unions/gay marriage". That's one...

Flexx,

I used one of the "newer" Camelbak bladders in my G1 Scout. It was the 102oz version that had the baffle running down the middle of the bladder. This made it much more flat and wider than a...

Kifaru1,

You can always check for people selling Marauders on the Kifaru Forum Trading Post. They are offered there from time to time. One of the great things about ordering directly from Kifaru...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again; the Marauder is the best three-day pack made. I've had mine since 2003 and it is still my "go-to" pack for most of my adventures these days and makes an...

Welcome to the Kifaru addiction!

I would recommend a Marauder, I've said it before and I'll say it again; the Marauder is the best three-day pack made. Perfect for carrying a few days worth of...
