backpack
A backpack — also called bookbag, kitbag, knapsack, rucksack, pack, or sackpack — is, in its simplest form, a cloth sack carried on one's back and secured with two straps that go over the shoulders, but there can be variations. Lightweight types of backpacks are sometimes worn on only one shoulder strap.
Backpacks are commonly used by hikers and students, and are often preferred to handbags for carrying heavy loads or carrying any sort of equipment, because of the limited capacity to carry heavy weights for long periods of time in the hands.
Large backpacks, used to carry loads over 10 kg (22 lbs), as well as smaller sports backpacks (e.g. running, cycling, hiking and hydration), usually offload the largest part (up to about 90%) of their weight onto padded hip belts, leaving the shoulder straps mainly for stabilising the load. This improves the potential to carry heavy loads, as the hips are stronger than the shoulders, and also increases agility and balance, since the load rides nearer the wearer's own center of mass.
In ancient times, the backpack was used as a means to carry the hunter's larger game and other types of prey and as a way of easier transport for other materials. In the cases of larger hunts, the hunters would dismember their prey and distribute the pieces of the animal around, each one packing the meat into many wrappings and then into bags which they placed on to their backs. The bag itself would be made up of animal hide and skin and sewn together by animal intestines, which would be woven together tightly to make a sturdy thread-like material.
Bought this setup from Sportsman's Warehouse and only used a couple times in freshwater only to discover Baitcasters aren't for me. Everything is still in excellent condition, stored inside. Has 12lb Maxima monofilament line on the reel. $80 firm.
This is first generation Eberlestock Gunslinger 2 in Military Green - This has the full size molle on the outside. My hunting dreams never came true and I only used this once on quick hike at mirror lake. This is in like-new condition. Please note the picture and lighting reflect the molle as a...
I bought this a few years ago, used it for a couple of seasons. I do not remember the model name, but it’s an archery specific pack, but I used it for hunting with a rifle as well. They designed these to be all about being quiet. The material is tough, but soft like a fleece or felt. The inside...

Looking to sell since in switching to a Mystery Ranch bag.

Hey guys,
I have been looking for something to take out for scouting, hunting, or shooting days in the woods. Looking for something that has modularity with molle or attachment points, decent capacity, but simple.
I know there is a lot of tacticool BS out there, but I have looked at some...
USMC Marine Corps Marpat ILBE main pack. No broken buckles or straps. Most these packs are missing the hip belts or top cover. Everything is there including the divider on the inside of the pack. Great pack but it is simply taking up to much room at this point and time.
I also have multiple...
This is face-to-face in Tigard area only. Cash price is firm for the first week(first come first served). It's the rare & more expensive Multicam model(typically over $150).

Like new - bought a couple years ago for trip that didn’t happen.
$85.00, OBO.
Hope you can use it.
Prefer face to face in greater Tigard, OR, area but I’ll ship it too if you pay the freight.
Pretty much complete, but fair condition. Lots of little holes and rips. Closeups of two hasty repairs I did. All buckles are present and accounted for, and the waist belt has extra long belt sections that I added to it for up to 4XL guys. Ordered a new pad and frame set for one of my self-made...
I got this in 2018 but I broke a rib right before season and wasn’t able to carry a pack. I was gifted a different pack last year, so I’ve never used this pack. It just sits in the garage. Buy it
