Was using this to assemble my ruck, realized it was missing several parts. Thanks CIF

On behalf of POGs everywhere, thank you kind Sir. Edit: or "pogues" or whatever else. I didn't serve "in nam" or fought those "bad eggs from the Reich" so it's POG in my understanding. If you're old or care about the spelling or history and still understood me, why is it relevant? Thanks again brother for the help, still the best vid years later and I'm using it before CIF again!

After carefully following the instructions I can confidently say that my rucksack now feels like it's actually a part of my body instead of a suitcase with shoulder straps. Thanks, sir!

This has been the best "how to" I've found on KZfaq, thank you!!

Been in for 6 1/2 years now. Sadly, I still have to watch a KZfaq video everytime I need to put my ruck back together. Lol. This was BY FAR the best ruck sack assembly tutorial that I've found. GREAT JOB and THANK YOU!!!

Thank You so much Bro you are a life saver. I got my Ruck March this morning and CIF didn't put togetger my Army Ruck.

Took you 15 minutes. Took me 30 minutes lol. Thanks for video!

l want to thank all of you for your service and the sacrifices that you and your families make. I just got one of these surplus today ,and thought that it sure was noisy with all the creaking, so I grabbed the can of silicone spray that I was using on the snaps and gave all the spots where the straps meet the frame a squirt and it is now squeak free, nice and quiet. I hope this helps someone stay stealthy and a degree safer. God bless you all, come home safe.

u saved me from getting smoked by my plt SGT thank you

I been in for 6 and a half years and only got issued assembled rucks. My new roommate got a disassembled one and I'm like wtf? This made it easy. Thanks bro.

This video was an absolute God send! The amount of effort that went into showing the exact holes to go through and the awesome visibility throughout, made this video stand above all others I have watched. This is the best step by step, how-to for someone brand new. Thank you for this!

Thank you so much for this! Got my rucksack from CIF disassembled and figured it would be a lot more beneficial to me to learn from the internet than watch someone else do it for me. This helped a lot!

After years in SOF, I never had a molle ruck. Got one issued to me at my last assignment before retirement. CIF said I had to turn it back in assembled. Your video saved my butt! Thanks!

This is sincerely the best tutorial that I has ever seen, it make my ruck sack assembly WAY easier

Scouts out, brother! Was completely lost without this video!

I first watched this when I got to my unit. My sgt was impressed that I showed initiative and competence before being instructed. Now I am watching as a civilian to assemble my army ruck I scored off facebook. I have come full circle lol

Excellent excellent video! No superfluous babbling just a well lit sharp video and clear instructions. One of the best instructional videos on You Tube for this rucksack system! Bravo and TangoYankeeVictorMike!

This was definitely the most helpful video I think ive ever seen to assemble the ruck. Very easy to follow along. Thanks!

Man, this saved me so much time and heartache. Good instruction, easy to follow. Thanks very much for your help! Most appreciated!

I’m ETSing and took my gear to the Quartermaster. Soon after, my unit wants to do a ruck march. You are a Godsend!

This is explained so well! I love it! IT WAS TRULY A GREAT HELP!!!!

Thank you for your help with the video. It is the best how to video I have ever used. With this video, you saved me yelling and screaming all day tiring to put the rucksack together.

Thank you! I haven’t put a ruck together in ten years. It was nice to have something to follow along with.

This saved me. Much appreciated. Just like other people said this helped me realize what cif didn’t give me.

Best ruck assembly vid I have seen on KZfaq, Thank You!

This trainer talked to me as if I was the only one in the room, what a class act. Once again a pleasure to belong to a fraternity of like minded gentleman.

The most useful video I've watched on KZfaq in a very long time. Thank you so much

Good refresher. Hadn't built one in 5 years and this video had me squared away fast.

Just bought one of these from a surplus store in Finland and will strip it down and re-do it next week when it arrives. Really appreciate the clear instructions! Will be a great practice ruck while training up for enlisting :)

Thank you so much! Getting ready for a 6 miler tomorrow and I needed to know how to assemble my rucksack!

I'm old we used the old large Alice pack and frame.. but I bought one of these for long multiple day hikes as a civilian and I thank you for your help

Thank you so much, I was given a disassembled ruck and couldn’t figure it out for the life of me. This was a huge help.

Getting all setup on bct and ait I didn’t learn how to properly put it together but thanks to this video I was able to do it myself and much better than the other rucks I used. Thank you for the video! God bless

By far the best video I've seen yet. I've watched a few, but this one just hit right with me. Thank you for your time in putting this together.

Thank you. I tried to figure this out myself but there was no way I could do it without this video lol

This is a terrific walkthrough. Thank you for the neat tutorial.

I disassembled my ruck sack just to see how different it was set up and it was all jacked up. I put it together how you did, now it feels way better. I’m going on a ruck march tomorrow 👌🏽

Just received my Ruck today and just Assembled this bad boy today. Thank you very much!!

This is awesome! Thank you! I'm going on an over night hunt and wanted to grab one of these systems to fit my tree climbing gear plus tent and over night stuff. Putting all of it together was holding me back from buying it.

This was extremely helpful & easy to follow. Thanks a ton!

Best step by step for ruck tutorial ever!

Appreciate this video, going to the field tomorrow got it done in 20 minutes

Awesome video man... I followed every step... just saved my life!!! Thanks!

Thank you thank you! Great step by step process. I purchased a rucksack for my 72-hour bug out bag; it came with the 2 sustainment bags but no shoulder harness, frame, or belt. Now I know what you look for to complete. This video was perfect

Hey, very well made video. It was descriptive, clear and concise. I appreciate how you took the time to explain the setup process. I will be referring this video to all those who ask me on how to setup a ruck. Hoo-ah!

I appreciate the help. I just finished snapping mine back together.

Thank you for the video, very knowledgeable video and a great teaching moment. God bless you

for the first time since watching you tubes, the person doing the video actually knew what the f he was doing. most ether was screwing with the camera or back tracking and had no idea what names of items were. great video.

Thanks for this. You’re the best! Sportsman’s Guide ships these completely disassembled. Mine was missing the last pair of buckles & sustainment pouches for $53. 🇺🇸🗽

Very helpful with set-up = thanks. Slightly different towards the end since the large rucksack I had utilized 4 straps each side to attach to the frame but getting to that point was definitely enhanced via your demo!

Thank you, I was lost without your video.

You're a lifesaver! Have FTX tomorrow and I procrastinated so long on putting it together 😂

Great video. I watched and learned and set it up. I appreciate you. Thank you.

This video was more help then my NCO’s… thanks!

This was a very helpful video ! The step by step process was great 👍🏽

Cool, thank you. I prefer my ILBE with the assault pack, but I still love those sustainment pouches. I even bought an extra 2 pack for use with some chest rigs ( the others I use with my ILBE, it's APB03 assault pack, and certain rucks ). I snap the pouch tabs ( which gives you a loop, so to speak ) and fish lengths of paracord onto the crossed shoulder straps of certain chest rigs, make a couple of square and other knots to secure them on the chest rig's shoulder straps, and do the same thing with the bottom set of pouch loops and secure the bases of the pouches onto the horizontal belt of the chest rigs. I especially do this when I don't want to put on a ruck but want to carry a day or two's worth of extra meds, gear, ammo, mags, and so-on. They can be stuffed full of so much stuff they look deformed and I've still got room; two of those sustainment pouches is like having an assault pack, especially if you know how to pack them right. Since you have experience with this ruck ( probably because of military use, I'm guessing ? ), would this ruck, complete system with all components except for the radio pouch, which I already have, be a good investment for a collection of societal collapse ( the so-called SHTF/WROL scenario ) gear? I ask because Coleman's Surplus ( same place I get the sustainment pouches and 200 round SAW gunner pouches [the 200 round SAW gunner pouches are great for carrying 6 extra rifle mags, usually AK 30s for me] ) has the complete system for $70. It's a toss up between the MOLLE II Large Ruck shown here and the huge Belgian M65 "jigsaw camo" ruck, I'm sure you've seen them, with zippered on side pouches that can be zipped together to make an assault pack and the main ruck that's at least 100 liters, for $65 on another surplus vendor. I'm buying 1 or the other and I've heard some U.S. Army soldiers say the ruck shown here sucks and others say it's great. I generally stick with surplus, as it's generally superior to civilian gear in every way, for gear that will always come thru for me ( I've also heard that about the ALICE rucks, which I don't care for. People either say they are the best ruck the U.S. military has fielded, or that ALICE sucks. I don't think ALICE sucks, it's just not a ruck I would choose ). If you were to get a large ruck, would you choose the MOLLE II Large Ruck, or the Belgian, huge ( I think it's the M65 ) ruck?

I don’t really comment on stuff but I appreciate this a lot I’m ready for the field next week

Thank you a lot, this was the first time that I put together a rucksack by myself!! I'm so proud lol it was very helpful your guidance.

This was incredibly helpful, thank you.

Thank you so much. I come back to this video every time

Just used to assemble my ruck. Thank you for this!

Thank you very much for this excellent tutorial video. It was really helpful ! Blessings...

Thank you! This was a lot easier than I thought. Even though it still took me a while to do.

Man, you officially saved my life!

Currently in AIT and my drill sergeant took my whole ruck apart so thank you. Loving Life

I've been using the same ruck for 5 years. I'm 5'4 my ruck has always fit me just awful. Decided to finally tear it apart and put it together to my body size. The last person to use this ruck has it sized up to the largest possible. No wonder it always felt like crap! Thank you for this video

Thanks dude. Never put a ruck together while in, just got mine for personal use now so I can get some exercise. Best instructional video ever.

Thanks for the video. It helped me a lot!

My ruck got filthy at PT and I had to take it all apart to clean it. Thanks for helping me put it back together

Awesome, Thanks for taking the time to show us!

what a great video, very useful and its filmed very well, thanks.

Hooah. Really well made guide. Helped me a lot for rotc

Got me already for Korea. Thanks man

Excellent tutorial. Thanks. Liked and subbed

Good video. However the metal loops are what keeps the straps tight. They work just like motorcycle helmet chin straps. Run the strap through both loops as you did but then loop the strap back over the 2nd loop and push it through the first loop again, then pull the strap tight. The Velcro is only there to keep the strap from flapping. Velcro is not going to hold in a high g environment, such as airborne drops or other situations.

Had to put a disassembled ruck together for final CIF turn-in. This made it a relatively painless process. Many thanks.

Old frame snapped and I needed to learn how to rewire my ruck, thanks a lot!

Good explanation explaining each piece that helped a lot ,thanks for the video

This was a great video about my sack.

This is still best video on how to, to date.

Extremely helpful thanks!

Thanks! I re adjusted my shoulder strap because I am shorter and I was worried I cannot put it together again. Whew! Thanks to your video

What a great piece of 'Murican engineering and an excellent video for such a hideous camo

The best way to learn, thank you Sr!!!!

When I was in Korea the CIF there told me to break down my ruck and clean it and as soon as I did that they ended up having me keep it

That was a great help!! Thanks

Thanks man this was very helpful!

I appreciate the upload!

very helpful indeed, my friend… thank you.
