I'm not trying to pick on SG. It's just a general frustration I've had when trying to reduce pack weight. I've gotten to where I weigh everything as soon as I buy it because I don't trust the manufacturer specs anymore.
Is anybody other than me tired of advertised weights being, shall I say, "optimistic"? My latest disappointment, EVO 3300 advertised weight 3lbs 13Oz. Actual weight 4lbs 2 oz for a difference of 5 ounces. Just wondering . . .
I bought a Mystery Ranch Sawtooth 45 last summer while I was trying to figure out my pack setup. I tried it on in the house and tried packing my gear in it several times, but never used it. Pack still has the tags on it. It's been sitting in my closet since last summer, so it's time to let it...
I have a new in box Mystery Ranch Pintler, bag only, in Optifade Subalpine for sale. I bought it last year intending to put it on a popup frame and I never made the change. It's been sitting in my closet for a year, so I think it's time to let it go. $125 TYD
