I’m selling my HMG Southwest 3400 size Large Black.

It’s in good condition, no holes, cuts, scrapes.  A little trail dust from limited use.

I modified it by adding load lifters the way Ben Killbore suggests.  The buckles are all removable if this doesn’t float your boat.
I also modified the right side pocket so it is more functional for liter sized water bottles.  I added a 3” wedge to the pocket and a drawstring closure.  It is very strong and functional but the sewing is fairly ugly.  I also cut off the obnoxious lower side compression straps that interfere with pocket use.  Using the attached buckles, I reinstalled lower side straps so you can use them or remove them.  Photos available if interested.

Selling, because I have too many packs, Scott
