The Molle 2 ruck pack

This is a new pack that I'm trying out this year. It is the molle 2 ruck. A lot like the ILBE with a few differences.

Kicking off with the knees brought back memories of the hay fields

[@ericmatthews3307]

I'm a sucker for rucksacks. Have 13 of them: molle standard woodland, molle standard desert, new molle multicam, ilbe, molle 4000. I currently use my molle 2 standard in woodland camo for camping, used to use my ilbe. It has the separate sleep system carrier. All in all, though, I like all the rucksacks. Previously used the ILBE, but I like being able to access sleep system at bottom of bag.

[@jackg.7745]

Great video. The Molle II rucksack system is a great kit. I'm currently using the medium rucksack for my INCH bag but I'm thinking about upgrading to the large rucksack. Your video gives me some ideas on how I can improve my setup. Thanks for the info.

[@rbuenafe100]

I'm a new sub Wolf. Great vid! I just received two Molle II Ruck pack from my brother in law as well as two MSS sleeping bags. Thanks for the tips on how you go about packing your Ruck and how to cinch everything at the end. Looking forward to seeing all your vids.

[@grierwolfe]

I really appreciate that. Thank you.

[@JohnSmith-vb6jx]

Good job on the pack load out and presentation.

[@LarryRobertsbc]

I can't believe your in short sleeves. Its supposed to be -2 tonight. I have a water filter that I might need to do a video on. It is a gravity filter with its own container. Great vid man.

[@grierwolfe]

lol.... I shot that video a month ago. I've been dragging my feet with uploading them. Please do share the review. I'm always interestedin filters.

[@adktree8ter261]

The bucket in the bag is a great idea!! What I think would be an even brighter idea would be a stainless steel bucket of the same size to accomplish more tasks with,, like being able to throw the stainless bucket on a fire !! Cool you learn something new every day!!

[@thomasnugent7602]

Very good ideas. Thank you very much

[@user-gz6np1lm2b]

Looks like you make a pretty good thing for hunting... Feel like buying one. Thank you for sharing with us. Best regards from Russia.

[@user-gz6np1lm2b]

@@aown don't push your luck... bro. the only thing you are capable to do is to fuck yourself... after you finally find out what gender you are....

[@outdoorslifesurvivecraft5078]

I've been using the molle ll for 5 years now for camping and hunting trips and quite honestly, for me I don't see the need for any other pack.

[@TheHiddenWoodsmen]

of all the military pack i have used, i think the molle 2 ruck has the best support for heavy loads.

[@grierwolfe]

I'm on the fence still between it and the ilbe. I don't think ill ever choose. I love them both.

[@Rendar600]

Good backup or primary knife digit to ask is your food in your msr?

[@MrEvENGED]

I bought a second-hand backpack that had been in bags for a couple of years and it stinks a lot afterwards. I tried to soak it 2 times with washing gel, I also washed the backpack in the washing machine for the third time, but the smell did not completely go away. The inner lining is yellowish in color and if you start picking it with your fingernail, it starts to crumble and feels rather vile to the touch. Tell me, please, on all backpacks, this inner lining crumbles and has a rubberized base?

[@Pawoodsman]

Glad your area is mostly flat my back hurt watching this. Great gear buddy

[@grierwolfe]

lol.... Isn't that the truth. That is one perk to my flat land home.

[@douglasfraser4972]

What you referred to as molle pockets on the sides are sustainment packs and are used to carry three MREs each. They are molle strapped to the pack and can come off easily. You can also purchase two more on EBay and have four on your pack, they are invaluable. I am the author of, “The Prepper’s Book of Ideas” on Amazon Kindle.

[@grierwolfe]

Cool. Thank you sir.

[@samtran1434]

would you recommend this for a backpacking bag?

[@survivewithout]

very nice pack. it reminds me of my canvas pack but with more comfort :-)

[@survivewithout]

***** I believe so

[@lakeforge2306]

I have had more than 10 ILBE and MOLLE II packs as I live near an Army Surplus store. I was ecstatic about the ILBE at first, but eventually after examining a few used ones, I found many weak points. I you look closely at the ILBE shoulder straps you will find they are absolutely worthless. Weakest point on those packs and not an area to take lightly. I have noticed the stitching is weak on the ILBE packs. At this point I wouldnt own one except to possible mount onto a MOLLE II frame. As for the MOLLE II packs, I cant tell you how well they have held up for me, I have heard about broken frames but have never experienced it , I think this is caused by abuse from soldiers who have no investment in their issued gear and carelessly throw them around. Ive had Woodland, ACU and MULTICAM models and used them vigorously. I can mount the sustainment pouches anywhere on the packs, I love the whole MOLLE II concept. Superior to anything out there. The only thing that comes close is a British Dennison Bergen. Very well made and clever design. I have nothing bad to say about the MOLLE II packs. They are affordable, often as low as 30.00 on Craigslist. Your MOLLE II pack will serve you well if you care for it with even a shred of effort.

[@grierwolfe]

I couldn't agree more. The more I've used this pack the more I love it. I don't intend on going back to the ILBE

[@lakeforge2306]

Your videos are inspiring. Ill probably put most of them on my Survival playlist. Your love for your daughter is obvious and in the end will be the most important time you ever spent. You are obviously a man of great honor and commitment and it is my great fortune that you have shared so much with the community. Hats off to you and my respects.

[@grierwolfe]

Wow!!! Really man, that meant a lot to me. From the bottom of my heart thank you.

[@robannis7512]

can u attach the 3L source hydration pack to the large molle II ruck

[@mhouston75mh]

How does the molle 2 assault pack attach to the rucksack. I have acu ruck.

[@cosminv4745]

excellent review brother...all the best

[@grierwolfe]

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

[@sgtg4600]

Bucket on the inside of the pack. I'm guessing the mop gets strapped to the outside. Consider a padded mop sleeve to protect the mops sights.

[@williamgarrison6060]

😅

[@stevenkimdmd]

I was going to ask how you fit a poncho over the bag. After watching the video, I think I got the answer. You don't. Thanks for the upload. Learned a lot.

[@grierwolfe]

haha.... Thank you Steven. I can honestly tell you that I have never tried to put a poncho over this bag. I bet you probably could but your lower back and legs might get wet.

[@geob0324]

Very comprehensive. How much does that setup weigh..?

[@ArmyStinger150]

Great pack Justin. I have one and I love it. I also have the medium ruck (which is my pack of choice) & the assault pack...all in (OCP) Multicam. It's amazing...I noticed we both pack a lot of the same gear for camping! Nicely done review.

[@grierwolfe]

Thanks man. I'm really enjoying this thing. In the beginning I didn't think I was going to care for it until I found that the main pack unzipped from the sleeping section. At that point I fell in love because I could pack it the way I wanted to. You wouldn't happen to have a review on your medium ruck would you? I've heard some great things about them and wouldn't mind seeing it.

[@ArmyStinger150]

Yes I do! It's in my "Gear" playlist.

[@johnnyanderson4464]

Awesome video bud..what dry bag is that??

[@emmettr1]

How heavy is this set-up?

[@mrbakerskatz]

That's a lot like my pack.....Love it. I have everything in it so I can enjoy my camp out. all tho it is not for hiking trips as I am an old man !

[@grierwolfe]

Carry heavy but practice lite is my moto. That thing will hold the items you need for those moments you hope will never come.

[@billyjoedenny]

thats a monster pack,,i got my packs out last night and i was choosing a carry pack for the winter..you gave me some ideas to pack in.. ..bill

[@tomritter493]

not up on the new gear but that looks great Justin its huge

[@grierwolfe]

It sure is. I love it because I can pack enough for me, my kid, and my wife in that thing.

[@grierwolfe]

Glad you liked it Bill. What do find yourself using more times then not?

[@wildsurvival8037]

I have this pack too, your's is a little bit different but ultimately the same. I can carry so much more weight than my previous pack. Have you found a good rain cover for it?

[@grierwolfe]

Wild Survival No I haven't. That is my only complaint about this pack. The flap should be larger.

[@DonnyB]

Excellent video! Nice set up but whats in the 3rd molle container pouch? I'm looking forward to seeing the Shelter System you will eventually be offering on Wolfe Customs (FB)

[@maisonheath8962]

I realize it's pretty randomly asking but do anybody know a good site to watch new tv shows online?

[@arturoreign6118]

@Maison Heath i dunno try flixportal. you can find it thru google :P -arturo

[@maisonheath8962]

@Arturo Reign thank you, signed up and it seems like they got a lot of movies there :D I really appreciate it !!

[@arturoreign6118]

@Maison Heath Happy to help xD

[@LeeWolfLittle]

About how much does your pack weigh loaded and unloaded? Great video can't wait to see your sleep system. Thanks

[@grierwolfe]

I honestly couldn't tell you for sure but I would guess between 65-75 when I'm packed for both me and my daughter and 45 when I'm by myself. I'm a strong believer in packing heavy but practicing lite. Gives you a great workout for when you might need to hump all that gear.

[@bennyvoncannon197]

I have the ilbe love it been looking at that pack my sons are having a hard time dad carrying the ilbe they were both army just kidding .I have wondered how it would be in thick woods it looks wide.

[@grierwolfe]

It's not bad if it doesn't have the side pouches on it but with them on it does catch branches. The ILBE is way better in thick brush IMO.

[@lakeforge2306]

There is MOLLE-PALS webbing on the waistbelt if you want to mount your knife there.

[@Undercover-outdoors]

Thanks for sharing Justin. Whats the make of the dry bag you use? Atb Andy

[@grierwolfe]

I appreciate it man. The bag is a 55 liter sealLine dry bag. You can also find it if you search for it by "the ilbe dry bag ".

[@Undercover-outdoors]

Thanks Justin ill take a look.

[@ArmyStinger150]

Hey Justin, Have you made the video on that "Shelter System" yet?

[@grierwolfe]

No I never did. It got shut down before it ever got started man.

[@ArmyStinger150]

***** That's too bad man...I was interested in it.

[@phrankus2009]

You already know what *I'm* gonna say ... ... I'll wait for the *Princess* version.

[@grierwolfe]

Ha ha ha.... I can always count on you my friend.

[@drcsep]

Hola Werewolf... Lol. It seems that you have the molle 2 ruck frame gen 4... Question... Do you think that I could adjust a large ALICE pack on that frame? Or anyone on the audience knows... Gracias

[@grierwolfe]

Carlos Sepulveda I certainly would think you could do that. I'll have to look at it tomorrow.

[@drcsep]

I would appreciate your advice.

[@PhilthyMcNasteeyyy]

you WOULD make a good car salesman!

[@grierwolfe]

lol.... That's funny. I hear that a lot from people. I sure wish I got payed for all the stuff. :)

[@chriswalker7491]

also a square pail fits better in your pack I have the same pack

[@garywayne5165]

Kind Of Hard To Stuff a Round Stuff Sack In A Square Paul

[@Deeceesadventures]

65lbs. Your not getting any younger buddy. Lol thanks for sharing.

[@en.copedawg2321]

Self inflating sleeping pad?...like you have to inflate it yourself?

[@chriswalker7491]

Love how you say it's all good stuff but then you say it's all miscellaneous junk

[@grierwolfe]

Hahaha..... Thumbs up man. That really cracked me up.

[@chriswalker7491]

you have your shoulder straps connected wrong their to high weight should be up on your shoulders do some research on line before u make videos so as to not look dumb bro just saying
