CONDITION: GOOD COLOR: Foliage U.S. Military Large OD Green Compression Stuff Sack The U.S. Military Large OD Green Compression Stuff Sack is a robust, no-frills storage and compression solution designed to military specifications. It is most famously issued as part of the Modular Sleep System (MSS), where it is used to store and compact the entire four-piece system (Patrol Bag, Intermediate Cold Weather Bag, Bivy Cover, and a smaller stuff sack). Renowned for its durability and simple effectiveness, it has become a popular item for military personnel, veterans, campers, backpackers, and survivalists who need to reduce the packed volume of bulky gear like sleeping bags, clothing, or blankets. Key Features Heavy-Duty Compression System: The sack's primary feature is its powerful compression system. It consists of a top lid (or cap) connected to the base by four vertical, heavy-duty nylon straps. By systematically tightening these straps through their ladder-lock buckles, the user can significantly reduce the volume of the sack's contents. Durable Construction: Made from a water-resistant and highly durable nylon fabric, the sack is built to withstand rough handling and harsh field conditions. The material is resistant to rips, tears, and abrasion. Drawstring Closure: The main opening of the sack features a simple and reliable drawstring with a barrel lock (cord lock). This allows the user to securely close the top before applying the compression lid. Protective Top Lid: The integrated lid serves two purposes: it protects the opening from dirt and moisture, and it provides an even surface for the compression straps to press against, ensuring uniform compaction. Bottom Grab Handle: A sturdy nylon webbing handle is sewn onto the bottom of the sack. This allows for easy retrieval when pulling the sack out of a tightly packed rucksack or duffel bag. Color: The standard color is Olive Drab (OD) Green, which provides effective camouflage in woodland environments. Size and Dimensions Uncompressed (Approximate): Height: 28" - 30" (71 cm - 76 cm) Diameter: 12" (30.5 cm) Volume (Uncompressed): Approximately 3,400 cubic inches, which is about 55 Liters. Compressed (Approximate): When fully compressed with a sleeping bag inside, the size can be reduced to roughly 12" x 12" (30.5 cm x 30.5 cm), though this depends heavily on the contents.
