CRAIG HERGERTBOZEMAN, MT

INTRODUCTIONBorn in Bozeman, Montana, Mystery Ranch brings 35 years of experience with packs, materials and people to bear on the problems facing operators in the field. Since “The Ranch” was founded we have equipped Tier 1, all of SOCOM, and countless other units with packs and specialized load-bearing gear. During this time we have also set the standard for integrating packs and body armor into a functioning system. The Marine Corps’ adoption of the Mystery Cinch into their new FILBE pack system brings the Ranch’s pack and armor integration to a new level. We live in and work in Bozeman -a city surrounded by five mountain ranges, with rivers and trails making it an outdoorsman’s haven. We are proud to be building your gear here and across the West. Please visit us if you are in the area.

4 // BODY ARMOR SOLUTIONS

BODY ARMOR SOLUTIONSBody armor creates significant load-carriage issues and Mystery Ranch has been improving our line of products which address them. Our BVS system keeps packs stable across armor plates; the Mystery Cinch keeps shoulder straps out of your armpits; and our new BASE takes the weighWt of armor and kit off your shoulders and shifts it down to your waist and legs. These solutions allow warfighters to focus on the task at hand and to perform at a higher level. We are serious about the development of these products because we believe that they make a signifi-cant difference in the field.

Bolstered Ventilation and Stability System (BVS) US and Foreign Patents Pending

www.mysteryranch.com // 5

The Mystery Ranch BVS system works by stabilizing the pack across your back, preventing the pack from rolling across the plates. Our new removable bolsters are made of durable, molded EVA foam and mount to the sides of the pack frames. When missions don’t require armor, the bolsters are removable.

3 DAY ASSAULT AND NICE FRAME WITH BVS

2012 BOLSTERS ARE REMOVABLE ANDOPTIONAL WAISTBELT UPGRADE

NEW FOR 2012: REMOVABLE BOLSTERS

Mystery Ranch BVS system comes standard on all SOCOM-issued Assault and Recce packs and is an option on all of our military packs.

The Mystery Cinch is our solution to keep your pack secured down to your armor. It keeps shoulder straps from sliding off the armor into your armpits and prevents the pack from shifting across the armor on your back. The Mystery Cinch simply attaches to the MOLLE on the front of your body armor and routes around your pack’s shoulder straps to a quick-release buckle. The Mystery Cinch works with nearly any pack -MOLLE, ILBE, FILBE, ALICE and all Mystery Ranch packs. The Mystery Cinch is the solution to make any pack more secure and comfortable over body armor.

BASE COMPONENTS

The Body Armor Support Equipment (BASE) is our solution to help take the weight of armor and kit off the shoulders. Initially developed for plate carriers, it works well with nearly any armor system. BASE is adjustable to most torsos and effectively transfers the weight of the armor and kit from the shoulders to the hips and legs. Installation is simple and quick. Just attach the BASE panel to the MOLLE on your plate carrier, and then adjust the frame to fit your torso.

Foliage Coyote Multicam Foliage Coyote MulticamBlack

This pack has all of the same great features of the standard 3 Day Assault with the addition of our Bolstered Ventilation and Stability (BVS) system (patent pending). This system was designed to give more stability to a pack when worn with body armor. The 3 Day Assault BVS is now issue for the Australian Army.

3 DAY ASSAULT BVSWt: 5lb 9 oz (2.5 kg)Vol: 2000 cu in (32.8 L)

We designed our 3 Day Assault to be the last word on assault packs. Big enough to carry sustainment gear, extra ammo, IFAKs, and all manners of tactical radios. The 3Zip design gets you in the pack fast –rip, unzip and you’re in. PALS web on the sides and on the inside back panel give you options to expand. The side compression straps compress the bag down when not fully loaded and can hold longer items, like M4s, aiming stakes, or tripods securely. Built for Military use, the 3 Day Assault pack is popular with hunters and Police tactical units as well.

Foliage Coyote Multicam Foliage Coyote MulticamRed

The Rapid Access Trauma System (RATS) pack is a frontline medic bag whose every detail is focused on quick, one-handed access to organized medical supplies. There are multiple trauma shears and tourniquet holders throughout and large reinforced handles for hanging the pack on branches or inside of helicopters. It’s sized so that when mounted on the NICE Frame, there is room below the pack for carrying litters or hydraulic combi tools. Inside the RATS are four removable pockets with clear vinyl windows and two IV bag pockets.

Wt: 5 lb 9 oz Vol: 1800 cu-in

These packs have won technical competitive contracts with Special Operations Command (SOCOM)

The SOCOM Assault Top Loader (SATL) is the standard-issue assault pack across Special Operations Command. It is a 3650 cu in internal-framed pack that comes with our BVS system to increase the stability of the pack on body armor. The main compartment can be accessed through the top or the full-length center zipper. Like all our packs, the SATL features the Futura Yoke harness, a self-contained adjustment system that fits nearly any body type.


SATL


TACTIPLANE

The Tactiplane is the standard-issue Recce pack across Special Operations Command. At 6000 cu in, the Tactiplane is designed to function near the maximum size load a soldier can effectively haul. It features our BVS system and modified Cush Lumbar Wrap to be stable on your body armor. With years of countless SOF missions under its belt, the Tactiplane is ready for whatever you can dish out.

NICE FRAME The NICE Frame system provides a radically better carry than even a well-fit and well-packed Mystery Ranch internal frame. A thoughtful redesign of the interface between the user and the load led to the idea of building in pre-programmed flex to an ultra-stable platform like the NICE Frame. It utilizes the same segmented flex of the Lumbar Wrap and customized sizing of the Futura Yoke as in most Mystery Ranch packs, but pairs them with a unique mainframe engineered for unruly loads. The NICE Frame can be used alone as a freighter or with any of our numerous pack-bags, providing the versatility to handle any load situation. The NICE Frame BVS also includes our Bolstered Ventilation and Stability (BVS) System which was created to lock down over your ceramic torso plate with minimum pressure on your shoulder straps, increasing the pack’s stability when worn over armor.

X-RAY VIEW OF NICE FRAME STRUCTURAL COMPONENTS


ONE NICE FRAME FITS MANY PACKBAGS

ALICE RUCK

FILBE RUCK

The NICE Frame is the core of our solution for serious load-hauling and stability. The frame is made of carbon-fiber fiberglass stays created in a pultrusion process that are laid in a 3x3 grid. These six stays essentially double the amount of mainframe typically used in internal frame packs. The stays are connected by sewn nylon joints that are programmed to flex perfectly with your stride without wasting energy. All excess motion is limited by the Cordura tension panel that makes up the NICE Frame’s “skin.” The result is a comfortable and flexible frame system capable of controlling any load you can lift to your back. NSNs are available, call for details: 406.585.1428.

One of the things we are thankful for at The Ranch is the interesting problems our customers bring to us. That includes packaging comm gear, optics, sensors, connectors and cabling -all part of our day’s work. We have designed and built systems to carry jammers, receivers and robots. Working with weapons? We are not shy. If it needs to be carried by a human, it’s part of our mission -let’s talk.

34 // MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTION

MATERIALS AND CONSTRUCTIONAll Mystery Ranch packs in this catalog are made in the U.S. All sewn materials are U.S. made –from the fibers up through every stage of production. These packs are fully IR and Berry-compliant.

FabricsOur primary fabric is 500 denier Cordura nylon. Tougher than traditional ALICE-style packcloth, 500d Cordura is around half the weight of 1000d Cordura. This can mean a pound lighter pack. 500d Cordura has superior waterproofing qualities and just plain makes a better pack. 1000d Cordura is a little tougher, but anything that damages 500d Cordura will damage 1000d as well. The difference in durability comes down to minutes while the difference in weight is double. The bottoms of all of our packs are double layered. The inner layer is stitched 1/2” smaller than the outer layer which places the bulk of the load’s weight on that inner layer, leaving the outer unstressed to maximize the material’s waterproof and abrasion resistance qualities. Where there’s a need to stiffen the packbag itself we use X-Pac. X-Pac is a laminate that sandwiches thick strands of polyester between an inner and outer fabric layer. These strands stiffen the fabric, giving the bag additional structure and load control properties. All pack shrouds are built out of coated and water resistant 200d nylon which is tougher than most tent floors, yet flexible enough to seal tightly. All military fabrics are IR-compliant and double-coated: one side with a polyurethane coating, the other side with a Teflon treatment for excellent wa-ter resistance. For places that require stretchy and/or compressive material we use Spandura, a hi-tech fabric that combines the toughness of Cordura with the stretch of Lycra. Made of Cordura fibers spun around a Lycra core, it provides a level of abrasion resistance never before approached in a stretch fabric. For areas on the packs that experience extreme abrasion, we use Hypalon. Hypalon is traditionally what the toughest whitewater rafts are built from. Our Coyote and Foliage Cordura cloths are solution-dyed, i.e. the fiber is colored before it is woven. This imparts an inherent IR masking that piece-dyed fabrics lack. All web and buckles are also IR-compliant. Our Multicam packs come with matching woven webbing and are built to meet IR requirements.


Thermoplastics, Alloys and CompositesFiberforge, a thermoplastics company we’ve partnered with, builds our Framesheet Adjust-ers. These adjusters are a thermoplastic composite material created by fusing fiberglass with recycled pop bottles. Per pound the resulting material is lighter than aluminum and stiffer than steel. We have several versatile aircraft alloys to choose from when using aluminum in our framing. These alloys are strong, light, and bendable, yet retain their shape once formed to our specs. Carbon fiber is the key ingredient in the NICE Frame. Carbon fiber is incredibly strong, impres-sively light, and remains flexible under massive loads.

FoamsWith attention to memory and durability, each foam we use is chosen for appropriate firmness, breathability, and cushioning.

Parts and AccessoriesAll main zippers are YKK #10 and all lid and pocket zippers are YKK #8. All zipper sliders are Black Oxide plated, which produces a far more durable zipper than painted sliders. All grom-mets for drawcords are Black Oxide plated and mounted in a 500d Cordura reinforcement. All web is mil-spec nylon, and all plastic buckles are tough Delrin made by National Molding. For serious lashing and compression options we use the National Molding Autolock buckles.
