Do these hydration bladders fit these carriers? They appear to, but I'd like someone with hands on experience to opine.

3L Military Hydration Bladder Pack (Green) HLB55G - $9.39 - Affordable Water Bottles

And I don't know if there will be a choice in field pack generations, but if given a choice, I'd prefer Gen2 with the coyote tan colored pads.

Those bladders appear to be mil-spec, but the hoses/bite valves are different. They should fit fine I would think. Thanks for the link. I'll add some more photos to my ILBE review later tonight to cover these bladders a bit more in depth.

This is a true mil-spec bladder.http://www.militarygearzone.com/ite...i/new-usgi-acu-skilcraft-3l-hydr/lid=15013279
Everything identical to what's issued, but I can't find these anywhere for less than this price. For only $10 I'll give the ones you found a shot.

I had spoken for 2 main style packs and am still planning on buying them from you. Please select 2 of the better condition models that need no repairs if possible. And let me know where to mail the payment to when you are ready for it. Again, I would be glad to help with the distribution of the packs if you need some help.

 

[newbomb]

I confirm that I will take the two main packs. I'll pm "Cathy in Blue" to see if she will take my cash or check and pick them up for me.

Thankyou for taking your time to set up this group buy.

Have arranged with "Cathy In Blue" to bring you my cash and pick up the two main packs.

SmileDocHill,

You have a PM.

For any of you near the Muncie/Anderson area, I'll be picking mine up in Westfield. If you are interested, I can pick yours up when I go after mine. Just PM me to arrange it. Payment for the packs will still be between you and SmileDocHill.

I don't mean this directly at you, Schwaisey, but your post brings up a good point. Please don't post in this thread if you are not on the list in the OP. This is not a feeler thread anymore, it is a hybrid group buy thread where we are trying to service as many people on the list as possible. Everyone on the list will not get serviced let alone folks that are not on it.

My plate is a little full right now to have to read the list 4 times trying to find someone's name on it when it isn't there.

That is all.

 

[Valvestate]

2x main packs, 2x assault packs, 2x ingo embroidered lids, 2x belts, 4x water bottles, 2x polartecs in med/sm if they are worth it (please advise, not familiar with military equipment). Obviously preferring non-broken stuff as i probably wouldn't have the means to repair. I can clean the stuff myself to save some hassle. PM if good to go and i'll reply with shipping zip. I won't be able to pick-up.

Thanks!

 

[Stainer]

I know I am just on the Alternate list, but with other guys lowering their number, I would like to go ahead and confirm now just in case the list gets to me. I would like 4 main packs and 4 assault packs. Thanks

Hey everybody, I worked it out with SmileDocHill to have some packs for Ft Wayne area sorted quickly because it will work out great with travel arrangements I have. I will be passing through Indy headed to Ft Wayne for my family's Christmas on Sunday Dec 23rd. I can stop by Doc's and grab quite a few packs (most likely a full trunk load of them). I will not be able to meet at all on Dec 23rd because we're celebrating Christmas as soon as I get home, but I should definitely be able to meet up the afternoon of the 24th and potentially other days up to New Year's Eve. I will check my schedule and provide several "options". You let me know which options work best for you and I will pick out the most popular ones.

I cannot drive all over Ft Wayne meeting people so I would prefer we set 1 to 2 days/times for people to meet and if you can't make it, find an INGO member that can make it and you can meet up with them at some other time. I will only be in the area temporarily so if I don't off-load your pack to somebody else in the time-frame listed above, it's going to go back south with me. Meeting location is going to be preferred on the east side, near New Haven; my in-laws live several miles SE of New Haven.

So, what I'm looking for is people that want me to pick their packs up from Doc to post for sure here. I will give the list of names/packs to Doc and he will get them sorted and ready for transport by the 23rd if all goes well. I prefer not to handle any money so if you intend to pay cash/check you need to get that squared away asap. I can possibly also meet somewhere along 69N if you're near Huntington/Markle etc but once again, the fewer stops the better because my family's Christmas commences the instant I get home and I don't want to be late.
