PAK for Auction

[Thomas Linton]

After all the good suggestions about PSK's, I ended up getting several M16 triple ammo pouches. They are very rugged and can be attached to a belt or, via a split ring and carabiner (sp?), to a loop of some kind. It, and others, will be auctioned off at a Scout event in January to help raise scholarship money for training adults and youth leaders.
