up for sale is a USMC ILBE rucksack with hydration pack designed by acteryx and manufactured by Propper international. the ILBE pack was a short lived rucksack adopted by the USMC in the early 2000\'s. the pack was basically a beefed up marpat version the the venerable arcteryx bora pack. a pack very much liked by the hiking comunity. the pack was short lived due to an oversight by the marine corps, they had not taken into account that marines would be wearing body armor when using this ruck sack, resulting in a pack that is a dream to carry when nothing is on your back, but quite uncomfortable when worn with a plate carrier. resulting in this pack getting replaced by the current issue FILBE ruck. this rucksack incredible overbuilt and was designed to carry loads up to 120 pounds. the pack comes with lashing and compression straps out the wazoo making it great for keeping your load stable and attaching gear to the outside of the pack. the included hydration pack does not come with a bladder, but it is designed to be worn as a stand alone pack, or have the straps tucked in and attached to body armor or packs. a truly amazing rucksack with great civilian applications and a cool piece of GWOT history. a must have for both collectors and outdoorsmen alike.
