I won this pack on Ebay not very long ago. It is an unissued original US GI medium pack in absolutely MINT condition! The LC-2 frame is flat grey in color...almost looks parkerized. Not a scratch on it! I swapped out the shoulder straps for a set of "enhanced" straps from BLACKHAWK (OD in color). The rubber coating under top cover is MINT. This pack looks as if it was in a time-capsule for the last 20 yrs!

This is my only complaint with this pack...I find that when the frame is mounted I have much less load carrying ability. The frame is meant for heavier load carrying, but I can pack much more without the frame. Without the frame it's almost like a large "assault pack". All-in-all this is a beautiful ruck.
