Description

*Note* As per the grade, these packs have seen heavy use and some may have small holes to the outer back pocket. These bags may vary in colour due to heavy use or dirt build up. Some may have unit identification paint - see last photo for examples*

The British army infantry used these PLCE (Personal Load Carrying Equipment) packs, or bergans, as their main source for carrying equipment. They were put to great use, until they were replaced by the current British systems. Although these packs have seen their fair share of combat and my be a bit faded, they still function fantastically. Tough and sturdy are understatements when referring to this bit of gear.

If you plan on going hiking, then this bag would be a great companion. Large enough to hold all your travelling, cooking and eating utensils. It won't loose its form either, as it has a sturdy, internal frame. This will also make a great bag for hunters, as it's packed to the brim with useful pockets and features. The main section will fit your weapons and hunting accessories, while the pouches store any other food or equipment you have.

  • Genuine British Army surplus
  • Approx 70L main compartment

It’s alright

Back should be labelled grade 2, other than that it does get the job done and I’m very happy with it. Should show the stitches 🧵 and repairs in the photos as not to mislead but it does still function good.

The last pack you'll ever own!

As of April 2023, I've had mine for 6 months. It hasn't failed me yet, and I doubt it ever will. The British army bergen is tougher than concrete, the cross-stitching on the pack is the same used to secure truckloads to flatbeds. The side pouch patrol bag is a very useful feature. If you're lucky, you may even get more than you bargained for! I got 2 cyalumes and some handwarmers as a bonus. Just note that if you are ordering your pack to be shipped internationally, it may or may not come with an internal frame. In all, a beyond-superb pack for the princely $140 aud I paid for it. Thank you A&O.

Tough packs.

Pack arrived in good condition no broken bits just a few scuff marks as to be expected. Only thing i didn't realize is there is a short and long version i got shot version which is for people under 6 foot. Im 6 foot think long may be a better fit. Ill just get straps modified abit. Very tough will outlasts me🤣

A pack of suprises

Just recieved the pack today. When I first opened the main area I was suprised; I looked inside to find a DPM yoke and two PLCE pouches it. I honestly didn't expect to get the side pouches, but it was very nice to get it with the pack. The condition is alright, considering it probaby has seen some action. One of the zips is busted but is still useable. Overall, I am very happy with the pack; and I look forward to be seeing what it's capable of. Great work team!

British army PLCE pack

One of these arrived at my work today. Very impressed with the quality and condition, only one of the clips to attach side pouch was broken but shouldn't be a problem to fix. Pockets etc everywhere and was a good price. Thanks again to team at army and outdoors, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the feedback. Send us an email an let us know what buckle was broken and we'll send you out a replacement.
