FILBE 3 Day Assault Pack Coyote Tan Issued to USMC
Some call this the “FILL-BE” while others break it down, F.I.L.B.E.
Calling it the FILBE sounds stupid in my opinion and I continue to call it the much more popular F.I.L.B.E.
FILBE stands for Family of Improved Load Bearing Equipment
Agenda Free Link : www.eBay.com
Price : Prices vary greatly depending on condition on eBay; around $50 will get you a good condition used pack.
Speaking of which, finding a new Assault pack is going to be difficult but used condition packs are readily available.
Included : What I would look for when buying one of these is the condition of the pack; get one that doesn’t feature rips or holes; if they are repaired I would check to see what has been done.
Packs should include the frame sheet - make sure that it is present.
Optional : This pack originally came with a top mounted assault pouch, some packs may include them or it may have to be purchased separately if you want it. The price of these is around $25 on eBay at the time of filming.
Weight of Pack : Around 4lbs
Materials : 600 denier Nylon construction - Cordura Nylon. Rubberized YKK Zippers
Dimensions : 20" x 14" x 8"
Capacity : Approx 2300 cubic inches of space - that’s 37L
Designed by Propper, Manufactured by Eagle Industries
NSN: 8465-01-600-7830
The USMC FILBE Assault Pack was designed to be carried on shorter missions by the United States Marine Corps and can be attach to the larger FILBE pack for the long haul. It is easy to access your gear with rubberized water-resistant zippers on a larger main space and a smaller outer compartment. Inside there is a stash / radio pocket to organize your gear or place a hydration bladder and a plastic frame sheet located in its own zippered compartment to add stiffness. The USMC FILBE Assault Pack is made from very durable Cordura Nylon that can take a beating. PALS webbing on each side and the front allows plenty of options to add other pouches as needed like an IFAK or Mag pouch.
Contour shoulder straps, sternum strap and stowable waist belt make the pack comfortable for carrying a heavy load.
Pros :
Increase value - Seriously, for $50 there is no better assault pack on the market from any company; imagine purchasing something similar from any of the big brands and you would be paying $400 easy.
Comfortable as far as a military pack goes - you have to keep in mind that this is a military surplus product; that means it was designed for utility first and comfort second. Overall though, it is a comfortable pac
Adaptable - I’ve used this pack for all sorts of purposes ranging from a day pack to overnight bag; if you plan to use it for an overnight bag, you will have to go with a minimal loadout.
The closed cell foam backing offers some ventilation.
Plenty of Pals webbing so you can attach what you want to where you want to.
Without a doubt this is my go to assault pack. I always have it ready to grab, pack and run if need be.
Carries a 3 liter hydration bladder without issue and does have ports to tube on both the left and right side.
Fairly water resistant
Very stable and solid as far as form goes thanks to the frame sheet.
Cons :
The biggest con for these packs is condition and being able to find it in the condition that you want. Be very careful on eBay, ask questions, look at the pics and get what you are going to be happy with.
When it comes to ventilation, this is a weak point; when hiking in hot conditions or when you are pushing yourself, your back will get wet and so will your shoulders.
Summary :
For the money, this is without a doubt one of the best assault packs on the market. The pack is spacious, tough, comfortable enough and is badass looking. It is versatile, has plenty of attachment areas and is worth the low cost that it is selling for currently.
Speaking of versatility, you can add a wide range of pouches to the pack including sustainment pouches to the sides to dramatically increase size.

I wonder how many ladies out there have clued on to the fact that us guys have just as big of a problem with collecting bags as they do. I've got enough bags to take a scout troop camping.

[@28ny]

Most of what is on the market for men, to carry their stuff would be, in the past, regarded as a "purse" by women.

Gee, I'm glad you touched on this, I never thought of it. I own from a 20 liter day pack up to a 65 liter mountain pack and everything in between, but I do a lot of different outdoor activities and I quit driving over ten yrs ago. I have 2 bicycles, both have the bottom adjustable halves of crutches fixed to them so I can just strap whatever size pack I'm using for that days actives and off I go. Works fantastic, bet it even makes some of the ladies jealous!!!

[@robertsbushcraft]

This is my favorite pack. In fact, it's my "bug-out" bag and I love it. We have the entire FILBE system and it's bombproof. One tip about the plastic stiffener (insert), trim down the edges about 1/2" to keep the corners from cutting through the four corners of the pack. The two bottom corners are the most vulnerable. I also ran a piece of electrical tape around the entire edge of the stiffener to prevent cutting through the pack.

[@kenarcher2292]

Is the stiffener to big for the pack? Does the electrical tape protect the corners of the pack?

[@robertsbushcraft]

@@kenarcher2292 in my opinion it's just a little too snug at all four corners. Unless protected, the plastic will eventually wear through.

[@kenarcher2292]

@@robertsbushcraft Thank you for your response. I will take your advice and trim ( do you advise a sanding block) the stiffener, and put electrical tape around the outer edges. Is there a way to reinforce the shoulder straps where they attach to the pack.

[@robertsbushcraft]

@@kenarcher2292you can use duct tape as well as electrical tape. I used a pair of medical shears to cut the plastic and there was no need for sanding. Those shoulder straps are a bit harder to reinforce because of the way that they are sewn to the pack. So far I have not had any ripping or tearing there but I'm sure that's something I'll eventually end up dealing with.

[@1Splat]

I added denim patches inside the four corners for reinforcement. It's a pita getting them in but I used adhesive patches which worked well.

I bought one of these the first tine you reviewed them, and you are right, this has become my favorite EDC pack, and I have used mine for years now. After this vid, I finally ordered the assault pouch. I live in a wilderness area of the WI border with the UP Michigan, so this gets a workout. Thanks Luke

[@petermayonejr.3420]

Great detailed video/endorsement for this great assault pack! I have the Propper USMC APB03 in MARPAT "digital woodland" AP that is also a great pack. Also, the Eagle Industries USMC hydration carrier/pack that carries the 3-liter Camelbak bladder is excellent, too! I use that for day hikes and Mt. Biking.

[@old-moose]

WARNING! OLD FELLOW ALERT! I spent almost all my free time in my long ago youth hiking and camping in Oregon year around. My 1st pack is still my favorite pack. Its frame was Douglas fir limbs and rope. The main compartment was an old canvas laundry bag with 6 smaller compartments sewed around the outside made from the legs of blue jeans. All 7 compartments had a drawstring top closer. Over all this were 2 covers. The inside one was plastic to keep the rain out and outside one of canvas to protect the pack from everything else as well as holding it together. Underneath the covers was enough room store my tent (plastic sheet) and bed roll. Later when I was a teenager and was earning money, I preferred to use old faithful. I still have that pack even if I'm too old & inferm to walk around the block.

[@wolfpack1966]

I've had mine for about 4 years I love it I highly recommend it I am a hunter a trapper a hiker a fisherman and I use this pack for everything it is very tough and durable love the ability to be able to customize it to fit what I need no matter what I'm doing I even bought one to use for my job I packed my tools food water everything with that one pack I love it I highly recommend it

[@CLBLATT]

The condition I put my pack through. Tore the top up pretty good from the back board inside. Some of the guy's in my unit. You would have your gear in the five and half ton. Gear get's tossed out, and with the back board sitting high up. Tore the hell out of it. I have done field repairs on the pack with glue, and water proof T-REX tape. Like the review!!

[@militarygearjunkie2522]

Very well said review. I personally own this pack and it has been my favorite hiking, trekking pack for 4 season. I attached battle belt through the waist belt and it's even more comfortable with heavier loads by transferring weight onto my hips. You should try this mod if you own this pack!

[@jupiterjunk]

2023 update prices... New... Hahaha!!! Yeah right!!! Grade 1... $120 - $130 IF you can find them Like New out of the factory case or may have only minor signs of use or storage marks. Grade 2... $79 - $99 What we call normal surplus. The gear is fully usable and shows normal signs of use and has a lot of life left. Some items may have stains, writing, color fading, small repairs, and or surface rust on them. Some items may contain frays or small holes that do not affect the gears performance. Grade 3... $39 - $49 This gear can still be used but had a rougher life. They show heavier stains and or may still have a hole or rip and can be repaired. Zippers and shoulder straps are intact. This is great as extra gear or as a great budget item

Great review. I picked up this same pack almost 4 years ago. Found it at a surplus store for $35, dusty but in excellent condition. Haven't bothered with the larger FILBE pack. I don't really have a use for it and love my ILBE main pack. I know it was shitty to try to use it with body armor and other equipment, but for a civilian pack that is bulletproof and can carry heavy loads comfortably, I'll take it over any other military pack. I do love the classics. I've got an A.L.I.C.E., M.O.L.L.E. and even a couple hybrids I put together with LRRP's and down east frames, but my go-to for backpacking heavy is the ILBE. Just my 2 cents. Great video

[@Pellagrah]

Yeah, that seems to be the consensus with a lot of marines I've talked to. The ILBE main pack is by far the most comfortable of all their ruck systems, but it performs really poorly when worn with body armor. That's precisely what makes it perfect for civilian use though. The only problem with the ILBE for civilian use is that it's more expensive and difficult to find than a FILBE/MOLLE II ruck.

[@kram4771]

Love this pack Luke, it is my go to pack as well. I just call it assault pack, bought it after watching another one of your reviews of the pack. Use it several times a week and it is tough. Added the assault pouch, an IFAK on one side, a rip away pouch for CC on the other side, and an admin pouch on the lower pocket molle for access to other items. I have put this through some rugged use and it wipes off and looks new. Have one of your ODGR wolf patches on the admin pouch. AWESOME!

[@byronbrasher8118]

So happy you’re ok. We once came upon a black cloud across the highway that looked like smoke from a fire, by the time we got to it, something hit our windshield that sounded like gun shots. The rain was so bad we tried to pull over but couldn’t even see the soft shoulder. By the time we got to a little town to stop we saw big white balls the size of tennis balls that were actually hail. Our RV was a little dented but we were safe and had a great weekend camping.

[@kellywatkins6409]

I picked up the entire pack unissued in the plastic and with all tags. Fully loaded it's the most comfortable of all my packs. The assualt pack that you are reviewing is made to attach to the top of the filbe main bag. I've heard that the Marines loaded these up to around a hundred pounds. It's a beast for sure. If you do find the main pack and want to purchase ask if it has the revised shoulder straps.

The pay is excellent and the benefits would give you a secure retirement for your future advanced years.** Your energy level is off the scale for such an in demand job, and you would have no problem qualifying and fitting into such a job once a city committee observes your KZbin following.
