Here ya go 4Track: Here's one side of the pack. One this side there are three zippered pockets for mags or whatever. This is the other side of the pack. On this side a waist strap tucks into an envelope style opening. Then, out of the zipper on the top of the pack comes the shoulder straps and chest strap. So, this pack can be worn like a ruck. Here's another pic of the inside. On each side there is a big open pouch with black protective material within. I've show just one side. The dimensions of the interior main area are roughly 15X28. The pack is made to accommodate two rifles. My plans for the pack is to add a mag shingle for 20 round mags if one becomes available.

Wow, thanks a lot for that!
I truly appreciate the effort that you put into your response.
A very nice showing of the particulars of the pack. It looks to be a very well designed piece.
Something like that might be just what I am looking for on a project I am working on.

Well, Vz 58 is not entirely an AK but anyway... The one with folded stock is mine, fitted with upper handguard with rail... The other one is my friends and you can see it´s fited with original bipod - it was used by military version fited with infrared sights and it´s very hard to find and buy. Who can name all the other weapons on the picture wins free trip to the range when you will get to Czech Republic Attachments:

Well, the two rifles on the down edge of the picture are most challenging It´s not czech camo... I think it´s some kind of german WWII pattern repro, definetly not Czech or Czechoslovakian... I must say the Czech camo except the first "MLOK" was pretty crap, no camouflage efect at all and really crappy material... Links to Czechoslovakian/Czech patterns in timeline manor: 1960s "MLOK" very rare stuff! 1960s till 1995 "Jehličí" aka "worst camo ever" and 1995 till now pattern Vz. 95

I find VZ 95 bit too bright in real world. Digital woodland used by Slovakia republic is much much better...

I am wanting a discreet bag that is 28" for my rifle and has backpack straps. *snipped to save space

Changed out the stock, sling, and muzzle brake and added a Solar Tactical MFER.

Not exactly an AK... Here you can see my Vz 58 (and my "war face" caused by strong sunshine...) At the front it´s compensator, it´s custom made by one man in Czech Republic, at cost around 20 dollars, it offers great muzzle climb reduction, but the blast coming out of it is massive and for me personally bit unpleaseant. Moving bit back you can see original Vz. 58 bipod, it was issued for Vz. 58 Pi which was equiped with infrared scope which was kinda big and heavy. It mounts on bayonet lug, can be folded back and it pivots, so it works really well. Not very heavy at all. But realy realy realy hard to find even in Czech republic. Almost imposible. Upper handguard is custom made from duralumin on CNC machine. It has one hex screw fixing it in place trough hole of the rear handguard dissasembly pin and another screw infront keeping it tension against gasblock (you have to loctite this one). On the rail is Vortex SPARC red dot, working so far very good, love the small dot, an even the 2x magnifier works reasonably well... So far I´m interested how the SPARC will cope with the intense heat, becauce the handguard gets really hot and heat it´s transmitted to the red dot... Well then it´s a Magpul MS3 "single point/two point" sling... So far so good, will have to improve the rear attachment a bit. Just bit of paracord or something, to make it move bit freely. On my left hip you can see single mag belt pouch, home made from pouch used for keeping GPS car navi I will be making some changes to this settup - flashider instead of comp, lower handguard equiped with rails for flashlight...

I love those vz.58s. Definitely have my sights set on one for my next 7.62x39 rifle purchase.

I love those vz.58s. Definitely have my sights set on one for my next 7.62x39 rifle purchase. Well, since you like them so much I'll put up a couple pics of my D-Technic VZ-58 with its most recent modifications. Few of neat things on it: Tactical bolt release(so I can actuate BHO with my index finger) Ambi mag release(which I got more for when I am wearing gloves) US reproduction of the military brake US handguards(brand new and surprisingly, they are slightly lighter than the aftermarket polymer ones with magpul AFG attached) Last but not least, my "custom" US palm ak grip fitted for the vz {Thanks Willieboy! I probably wouldn't have done this without your contest!} Edit: and my home-made 20rd mag.
