Awesome Bergen, love to get one but here in Australia, its next to impossible. Tried a Surplus store there I was given details to contact, they had some, but shipping via Fed ex was £100...$189 Au...be serious. I got a Karrimor sabre 45 from UK to my door for AU$25 But I still want one same as yours. Any suggestions pls Cheers from Oz Neil

Lot of time has passes since the above, helpful video, Might you be able to provide any links to current sellers who presently have these Ground Anchors and the plate that'd go w/'em, available for sale - and shipment, to USA? Seems they're a very scarce commodity w/regard to in stock availability. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, and thanks for the video.

How big are your eyelets?

Never buy Chinese crap from shops always buy army stuff strong and last for ever

How much?

DPM PLCE is definitely stronger than the MTP stuff. The NI Patrol Packs are solid and not too big.

I have 2 army bergans both with side bags and a i have a condor 100l Bergan but i am still looking for the water packs since i last asked you about 5 months ago boy are they hard to find im still searching...

Chill under a lightning rod 😂

Just awesome Shalom Alecheim

I have been in search of the hydration pack for a few years now and have never found one i dont know what they cost but i would like one with a new hydration bladder any chance you could put me intouch with one...

British Army kit is the best in the world, for robustness, mate. I have loads of it for wild camping, working in, etc. It just lasts. All the best.👍🏾🇬🇧

I have one of these from DAS and it's the best thing I've ever bought for our forest school

Got 2 of these. Absolutely indestructible. Chunky zips. Fit like a glove. The Challenger Tank of backpacks. Can't beat 'em👍

Those ladders at the front can be used to affix two extra rockets using a pair of rods threaded through them and the strap tabs on the rockets, zip those two together and zip the sides to the original rockets. I keep a tent and down bag in those two.

This is the same music they played in the military setting up shade structures

Come on man , your hitting it like a girl in soft dirt, one swift hit should end the anchor to China!

Only 25 quid from Field textiles. For parachute canopy.

Nice work, I bought one a while back,it looks the same, I am getting ready to set it up

hi DAS outdoors. How do you set up your haul line please?

I carried one constantly in my 9 years in the British Army, and when I came out, I bought ANOTHER one from an army and navy surplus store in my home city of Aberdeen. That was 20 years ago, and I STILL use it for my wild-camps and rock-climbing ventures to this day. It's had some bloody harsh useage in the Scottish Highland winters I'll tell you, and it's still as new-looking now as it was the day I bought it. Think I paid £80 for it. Mind you, I will say that when it's empty, it's one of the heaviest pieces of kit you could EVER buy of this size, so be wary of this if you're thinking on buying one!!!!!

I’m looking For a cargo shoot of the sort for a camp. Where might I find one?

Thanks for the info Mick. A machinist friend gave me several 1.5” x 30” mild steel hex rods he used to make nuts. I will adapt by grinding them to a point and drive a couple through holes in a piece of landing mat to make my own ground anchor. Monkey wrench and pipe extension to twist & remove. The twist to remove feature is genius.

Can the straps be swapped out if damaged.

You said to be been in the the trade fo years so why didn't you keep to the army bergen when you said I'm in the trade ,doesn't make sense I'm ex forces so why did your wife take you for a bergen when your allreddy in the trracde l lol lol lol lol

The older design H-frame Bergen was better. It had an external frame, no waistband and comprised of only the frame, the pack and two shoulder straps and the whole thing could be dismantled into its components. The weight was carried on the shoulders. The modern army bergen with its waistband was adopted to cater for female soldiers.

took one to Iraq and Afghan, they are very good , shame the uniforms were not of the same standard(c95)!!!

Why don't they do DofE for adults?

Blimey, sozatz what that pins are ( for) ...... have had a bent one knocking around the place for long enough - good for sod all as it was slightly bent. No idea where it went but if I find i, it'll get straightened and used. Thanks for showing -posting all these years ago: like Ken Dodd's joke - will they get it in Cumbria? ... :-)

Thanks so lot for the test. I will buy the Rucksäck. :)

I've the opportunity to acquire a 100L Bergen pack. Where do you get parts, can the shoulder straps be swapped out for something more advanced? 🤔

You want hot? Stick a cheap hot water bottle in it and the food in plastic take away boxes on top. Acts like a Hay Box, part cook the food and leave in the Norgie to finish off.

Are parachutes water proof? I need to buy one, so I can use it when I go camping.

Looks really great! (-: are these the ones that are £200 and are converted from being regular parachutes into shelters?

Can't believe this was several years ago. ATB Andy 🇬🇧 👍 ☕

Do they still do the Military show in Oswestry?

0:35 - Wow, 45 quid, seems a great price... Goes to website... OMG its now 300 quid.... I guess this video is now 7 years old, but that is a serious price increase.

Good review 👍

Every day is an adventure, if you let it be one......😎

These are great bergens ..... far better than civvy ones.

Washing the rucksack should be by handwash carefully with just a little BLEACH FREE detergent the "canvas" is proof with a polyurethane coating which will lift from the canvas with detergents Detergents ruin rucksacks

Bloody hell. Nice one mate. Para burgen. Bloody great mate. Lucky boys. ATVB Andy 🇬🇧 👍 ☕

Used them as dead man ground anchor pins to go with the ground anchor plates when recovering Chieftain Tanks in the 70's on to the ANTAR Tank Transporter. Good unbreakable kit. Wish I could find a couple local to me.

i joined the army in 1988, and about 1990, i got myself a karrimor condor, which was close to 100 ltr. it was a great pack...i've had 100 lbs worth of it in there sometimes. i also got a karrimor hot ice day pack, which is still in use today ! unfortunately, karrimor went into receivership, and at some later date sports direct took the name... but no where near the same quality.

Neat, Sweet, and not so Petite! Plenty of room in that. Great idea to have all that is needed in one straight-forward kit.

That's awesome!

Nice one , was`nt expecting it to be so big

Well, where has it gone?!

hi, my friend I want to buy with parachute sale and ebay?

That was an honest answer

Is it fully waterproof ?
