BERGEN TAILORING (Side Mesh Pouches)...bexbugoutsurvivor

How I modified the S90 PLCE Bergen with bladder pouches.....

In this video I modify two bergens, both the S95 longback in Dpm, & the S90 shortback in Mtp, with two different kinds of mesh. The mesh is useful for stowing kit with out or inconjunction with the side (rocket pockets) pouches. Although water bladders can be stowed to both or either side, it can also house smaller items of kit, that does not always require the addition of the rockets.....
Mesh 1, is a lightweight scrim available in Mtp or Dpm, and mesh 2, is a much stronger mesh utilised from the Brit Jerken. Although I am not a personal proponent of carrying water in the side pouches, these mesh side stows have become invaluable in their own right for other pieces of kit I need quick access to....bexbugoutsurvivor

The KZbin algorithm must have something against the Welsh, because this channel should have 100k+ subs. Honestly I watch some of these big channels from over the pond and a lot of them never leave their back yard, have no real outdoor experience, no hands on experience or any skills to speak of and honestly don't know their a**e from the elbow. I just kind of watch ironically in wide eyed amazement. Don't get me wrong theres a few good ones out there, but for the amount of knowledge and skill you have this channel should be up their with the big boys.

Cheers man...The bigger channels are sponsored, so you'll never hear honest reviews. I don't make money from my channel, so get to stay under the radar. If I was paid by the sub or view perhaps I would give a sh~t and try harder...lol Thanx for your kind words, stay safe...bex

Good stuff Bex. I like the idea and it's flexibility.

Glad you like it!

[@OldNavajoTricks]

I just salvaged the back panel off a yoke and stitched that to the rocket, I need more yokes now lol.

[@bexbugoutsurvivor]

Email me an address to post one out to you. I have a spare I was gonna sell on the carboot this Sunday. [e-mail]

[@OldNavajoTricks]

@@bexbugoutsurvivor Sorry Marra I've just seen this, I got 5 off fleabay for £8.50 and have made a start on them, Thank you very much for the offer though, would have been good to have a Bex bugout nod on the build 👍

[@MichaelR58]

Great modifications , excellent idea , thanks for sharing , God bless !

[@andrew-ij1or]

Your vids are always great mate, sawing awl, never knew they was such a thing! Ta brv

[@rathersquiffy3578]

Nice additions. Have you tailored your rocket pouch? Noticed a small pouch on its side as you flipped it (at 20:09). Great series of videos, useful tips. I'm moding some of my DPM kit at the moment, pick up some useful tip. Many thanks

[@bexbugoutsurvivor]

I created the prototype and had the design professionally tailored for me ready for production, but the idea was a business minefield of headaches....lol

[@markwood5853]

Nice work. Really like the Dpm one. I'd be interested in seeing whether a padded mesh back can easily be added to these Bergens.

[@bexbugoutsurvivor]

That mod has been done and filmed, look out for the vid...

[@DMAC1966]

Really good idea you have and obviously cheaper than sending it away to be done. But can i ask how many times you nearly gave up ;-)

[@bexbugoutsurvivor]

Only losers give up mate...If things are difficult, you need to find a different method, or use the right tools for the job. A £1 sewing kit from the corner shop just wouldn't cut it...lol

[@DMAC1966]

I don't give up....I just swear alo t;-)
