    HPG Prairie Belt for ILBE?

    Hello I'm looking to change out the waist belt on my USMC ILBE rucksack. I'm a 30'' waist, and the standard issue belt is too large for me. I've looked at replacing the belt with either HPG Prairie Belt, or the Kifaru Deluxe belt. I know the HPG belt should fit right on, and the Kifaru belt...

    Mystery Ranch Terraplane/Glacier Packs?

    That looks like a very nice pack, but it's over my budget unfortunately. Overload shelf is a nice feature to have though.

    "Two Legged Predator" Encounters?

    In Canada we can't carry handguns during hunting (at all), so I just carry a can of bear spray and a fixed blade knife in addition to my rifle when hunting.

    Budget pack, ILBE VS Eberlestock

    Thanks for your replies. I think I'll be looking for a used MR or Kifaru Frame. Just one question regarding the Kifaru, if I add a cargo panel to it and strap on a dry bag for hauling gear, will it be stable?
