Hey all,
I've scoured the boards for an answer, but came up short, so please forgive the new post. Feel free to direct me to the thread I likely missed.
My 5/yo son chose GB for our annual family group Halloween costumes. He's going to use the new Spirit proton pack, but I'm building packs for the wife and I.
I'm having a bit of analysis paralysis on the Alice frames. Seems there are alot of "Chinese knock-offs" floating around that don't hold up (at least in hiking conditions). However, I can't seem to source any US-made milspec frames, even used. I guess my question is, should I simply purchase two frames from the GBFans store for peace of mind? I was only avoiding it because of the possible wait in delivery due to the Halloween season.
Amazon has $39.99 Rothco frames that can arrive in two days with Prime, but they have some fairly negative reviews.
Any pro-tips are appreciated.
