4-year-old video, maybe the most helpful video I've watched in as many years. Thank you.

Good job on this how-to. The first gen molle II is not set up to attach the assualt pack. I watched your video when I got back to my car after buying a Large Molle II and had to take it back in to the Surplus store and go through the stack to find a Gen II with the right buckle and strap setup. I traded the other one for the Gen II. Just as a heads-up for those who want this feature. The Gen II Large Molle II has the nylon sleeve extended top with a draw string. The first gen just has a draw string around the top of the ruck with no extended sleeve. Also the first gen only has two straps that come around the sides and not three straps with required buckle clips on each strap to attach the assault pack. Your video saved me some hassle because I wanted the assault pack attachment feature. Thanks.

Thank you so much. As a reservist and a cadet I don’t see much field time and I’ve being experimenting for a long time on doing that so I can use my assault pack once I leave the ORP and carry extra stuff.

Got drill coming up and I can say after 8 years of service in a light Infantry unit this could have come In Handy years ago... Thanks for the video and idea. I'm going to start using this.

Thanks for posting this... just got my assault pack and hoped to find a vid explaining how to attach to the Molle2... easy to follow and helpful!

For real. The field manual on molle2 tells you everything you need to know EXCEPT how to strap the assault pack to the ruck, despite it being prescribed as the full load March setup. Who the fuck wrote that FM? Fucker needs a good smoking. Brilliant video!

Thank you for the video. That is EXACTLY what I was looking for.

After buying a Molle 2 assault for $20 measly bucks at a flea market in Unused condition 2 years ago , the desert cammo was dyed forest green yesterday . I'm trying to sort out how to attache the waist pack to the bottom of the Molle 2 assault . You have given me some ideas and Thanks Aleksfoxtrot .

Thank you for a great explanation and demonstration.

Exactly what I’ve been searching for! Thx!

Thank you for that informative instructional video!

thanks i watched this a month ago now i got all 3 piece the large ruck acu the 3 day assault acu and the butt pack acu and i knew how to attach them cause of watching this it really is a wicked pack all of them

Great vid. I rock the assault pack with 2 sustainmant pouches and the butt pack.

I knew it, but anyway looked this video to fill knowledge space. I have ordered same both rucksacks to Kazakhstan 7 years ago.

the only problem with this method is that it is a hassle to open the ruck while the assault pack is attached in that manner. I roll my assault pack and thatch it under my left sustainment such using the 2 retention straps on the ruck. this provides a perfect balance of utilization the main rucks capabilities while still allowing you access to grab your assultpack and loading it with mission essential items for a mission when you ditch your ruck sack in a PB or a SH.

I’m not sure if this was on purpose on not but the awesome spec ops brand 3day can be used as well. Unbuckle the shoulder strap fastex Read the straps tight against the back of the pack, clipping the female ends into the lower male ends on the ruck and simply adding webbing w/ male buckles and sliders through the spots in the top grab handle.

Thanks for the instruction!

Thank you,😺

You just blew my fucking mind with this video. I been in for almost 5 years and I never thought about this

Thanks!! I've got the same ruck sack but don't have the darn bottom side strap...juat the two upper ones..ill find a way lol

Thanks a lot bro!

super spacious bro over5,000 cubic inch👍👍👍👍nice bag

Rucksacks differ. I have two of two different types. One with the integrated sleep system compartment similar to the one in the video, and one with the separate one. Both have only two of the side straps, without the lower one shown. They also don't have the side release buckles on them, but have the tri-slide buckles instead. You can loop the side straps from the assault pack and loop them around the side straps of the ruck sack to make it just as secure.

Hey man, tx for the video. I've been looking for solid "how to's" for the Molle ll system. Just some advice. I would run the side straps under the sustainment pouches if you could. That way your not crushing the sustainment pouches. Hey, do you know where i can download the instruction manual for the entire Molle ll system? There's gotta be one because the army has a manual for everything! Tx again for the video.

Thank you

good video. have you ever tried running the assault pack on the frame without the large ruck? you can get alot of weight/stuff on without the 8 pounds of the large pack.

Can you please point me in the direction to where I can find those two top straps that are attached to the frame? Do they have a name or label? Thank you

You have just blown my fucking mind 🥲

Great video! Question about the assault pack. The single row of mole straps near the top of the pack, what are those for? I’ve looked on the internet for an answer without any luck

Thank you lol

New sub here. Do you happen to have a link where you got this bag? Thank you!

thanks

How many rolls of toilet paper can the main pack hold. (Trolling). Okay seriously tho thanks for this because I never wanted to get a super sweet deal on the mismatched stuff bc I didn't think it would work but now I know I can grab those deals.

Great vid thatnks for doing it. Sub your channel

I remember setting it all up straight out of CIF, I still have the VHS that came with it. I'm actually looking into an alternative to the molle that I can attach the assault pack to. I love those assault packs.

The sustainmant pouches from the large molle ruck will fit on the molle 2 assault pack

The acu ruck doesn't have the clips on the sides like the multicamo ruck has.

does anyone know if you can also secure a Patrol Pack to the Rucksack?

If only that camera angle was wider

Cool, but dumb way to distribute weight. Two buckles and straps fix this so you can place it on top.

thanks Capt.!!!
