Will be taking my Barney's freighter on my September moose hunt. Already messing around with my gear, which to me is about half the fun.
The pins that hold the bag to the frame are secured with split rings. Even sitting here watching the NCAA tourney on my couch, it's a bit of a PIA working with those rings. Would like to have an easier, but just as secure way to be able to take the bag off and on, etc.
I'm thinking I just get appropriately sized R-clips and replace the split rings. Regular cotter pins wouldn't be any easier than the split rings once you bend out the tails.
Any reason this would be a bad idea?
