I've had a Crew Cab bag on a NICE frame since 2008. It has served me very well in that time and packed out a bunch of animals. I recently took the bag off the frame for the first time and found a whole bunch of unused buckles and straps underneath the bag attached to the frame itself.

I'm assuming this must have been a military requirement but I'm curious.

Has anyone ever used any of them?

It's for the different other bags you can latch to the NICE frame.

Some of them.

Ok. I'd forgotten about the load sling/meat shelf option.

Thanks MTWT.

I'd always used the CC bag for that.
