M-1952 is based on the US WWII Mountain Rucksack and it was favored by Special Forces troops in Vietnam. In addition to the main compartment, it has three smaller pockets on the outside. In case unclear, the frame is positioned with the narrow point upward and the frame hugs you.
Size information
This kinda weirdly-shaped thing is a bit tricky to measure accurately. From the outer edge of the top bar to the bottom bar it is c. 43.5 cm (17.1”). And from side to side it is 42.5 cm (16.7”). Even though it is steel, it isn’t overly heavy. The weight is c. 635 g (1.4 lbs).
Condition
These seem to be in very good condition. Then again these are made from steel and they don’t contain anything soft and easily breakable so it is kind of difficult to damage these unless you drive over them with a steam roller.
