Always love seeing a video with some surplus gear involved. Especially M81 camo. I like that smaller ALICE pack, it definitely frees up space on the frame for the sleep carrier.
My understanding is the radio pack is identical dimension wise to the medium alice. The difference is a larger internal radio pouch with an opening for an antenna as well as some clips and a strap that holds a AN/PRC-150 radio. The original application of this ruck was as a part of the Harris AN/PRC-150 vehicle dismount kit. The main takeaway is the medium alice ruck will work exactly as the one in this video.
Not all. There is a version that is smaller in all dimensions. The 3 outside pockets are basically mag pouches in size. It was made by unicorn. Who also made a medium pack version. To get it to fit a frame it would be a extremely tight fit width wise. I modded a Alice frame at the top to be narrower. There's a good 4-6 inches to the bottom of the frame (lc2) between the pack and frame. I put on a shelf and store whatever under the pack. Like a sleeping bag ECT. I have the smaller version.
I use the Alice Chem Suit bag for summer weight bags. It compresses the sleeping bag to be a bit smaller. I also use the Molle II Waist Pack to attach a Poncho Liner to the pack to supplement the sleep system. Then I attach a Molle II Sustainment Pouch to each side of the pack for, unironically, food.
Scotty, awesome mod to the Alice. I cut my teeth on the Alice pack, it's my go to choice. tried the MOLLE, but always find myself back to old faithful. I took the waist pad and added it to Alice, and now will do what you showed. keep up the good work....
O yes the alice is a tried and true pack for sure. I do like this with the molle ll sleep carrier though. I hope it works out for you. Thanks for watching and hope all is well😎👍
Great video , thanks for the info, I have not used my Alice pack frame in years , I just might give it another try for this years deer camp, love the overnighter videos , keep up the good work!
O yes this setup is very comfortable. I'm hoping this Wednesday I can get a overnight in at the shelter. Was going to this weekend, but had to cancel. Thanks for watching
looking goood. i need to get me those newert molle hip belt for my ALICE but here are really expensive that i might aswell buy a molle II. thanks for the video Scotty !
I hope your able to find one at a good price. A lot of surplus stuff online is outrageously priced, but just got to keep your eyes open to the good deals that come by once inawhile. Thanks for watching 😎👍💯
Hi Scotty, thanks for the video! much appreciated. I guess when I seen your first video with this pack I did notice what I thought was the medium ALICE pack and looked a bit short. I've never seen those shorter Radio ALICE packs before, didn't know they existed. I would love to find one of those. All I have is the medium and large packs. That explains why my sleep carrier hangs so low, also I didn't bypass those first loops on the sleep carrier so that didn't help. I'll have to try that with the medium pack and see if it works better. Where did you get your Radio ALICE pack? Thanks very much for taking the time to make the video appreciate it. God Bless.👍
O yes you bet. Was my pleasure. Ya if you put the webbing in the first loops it will sag really bad for sure. I bought the radio pack on ebay. They are usually their for around $40 dollars or probably a little more now. Hope you can find one for a good price. I'm going to use this pack in the next Overnighter. Thanks for watching 🤗💯👍👍👍👍
How would it affect the configuration if you went through the first two loops before going through the slots in the bottom of the frame and then continuing on the way you show
Does anyone know of anywhere to get one of the brand new unicor Alice radio packs? I noticed over at m81 FTW he mentioned he bought 10 of them or something. I'm trying to find 2 , in the bag still. Wish I had known when all those hit the market recently.
@@scottysurvival Darn. Thanks for the quick reply though. Saved me some time. I guess what I'll do then is keep the sleep carrier on top of the ALICE since it's heavier anyway and it'll keep the weight forward and I'll just bungee the foam sleeping pad roll either around or connected to the shelf at the bottom. That should do the trick.
Duuuuude thanks so much. I could never keep mine from flopping! Your tutorial is MUCH easier to follow than most others
Thanks I'm glad I was able to help. Thank you for watching and commenting.😎💯👍. Remember to tell them that Scotty survival sent ya.

O yes this is probably my favorite camo along with the swiss alpenflauge camo. Thanks for watching. See ya in the next vid🤗

Good video , thanks for sharing , God bless !
Thank you, and thanks for watching 🤗
I dig the new intro music!
Thanks, and thanks for watching 🥰
I have 2 medium ALICE packs, this small would be a neat one.
Great mod
Nice Nice I have this one and a Bulgarian type alice pack with maroat camo. Pretty interesting. Thanks for watching brother.🤗
Great looking pack. Why would you ever use a CFP90 if you have this? I’m wondering if a 1606 frame could be used for this set up.
CFP-90 holds a lot more. Great for winter camping

@@scottysurvival Thanks again Scotty. I'll have to check Ebay.
@@jeffrichards5106 Check your local thrift stores.
I found 1 a couple years back at Goodwill for $4.00.
Can this be duplicated on the newer DEI frames alice frames or the Open perimeter frame?
Excellent video!
I'm not familiar with those other frames. I just know it works on this one. I appreciate you watching 👍💯
1606 AC is the Molle 2 frame, the 1606 MC is 4000K frame, the 1609 is the USGI medium frame, all made by Down East Innovations (DEI)
@@jay.d.8906 thank you for that info I did not know that💯👍🤗

Bom vídeo guerreiro
How would it affect the configuration if you went through the first two loops before going through the slots in the bottom of the frame and then continuing on the way you show
I will have to try it that way.
@@scottysurvivalpost how it worked for you. I'm interested in trying it out on my ALICE

eBay is your best bet.
What I wanna know is can I attach the sleep carrier AND an ALICE load shelf at the same time?
I'm not sure but I'm also curious too. I will have to try it out sometime
Hey I tried it with the shelf carrier and the straps are right in the way. So a no go unless maybe you knotch the metal out.
@@scottysurvival Darn. Thanks for the quick reply though. Saved me some time.
