Hi,
I was wondering, Could these be attached on to an alice pack frame? Is the quick release setup the same way as it is on the alice shoulder straps? I want to get a set of molle shoulder straps but, I don't know how things attach to a molle frame and if it won't attach on to an alice pack frame, then why should I waste my money?. Just wondering..

Let me know..
Thanks!!

YES YES YES!!!! That is it!!!
I've looked everywhere for pics and couldn't find anything.. You're a life saver!!!
I originally want to put it on a Canadian Pattern 64 frame which is a copy of the US LW rucksack frame made in the 1960's. The alice frame is almost like it.. I figured people would know what I'm talking about..
I also want to get a molle II main pack for on my frame and it will work because I checked one out yesterday in a local surplus store. but I need the shoulder straps for everything to fit into place..

Now, I just need to know how to get the straps threaded through the frame? It looks like the straps just slip right through the buckles on the shoulder straps..

Thanks Again for the link...

Hey,
I guess I've been wrong on how the lower quick release system works on these things.. Are they setup the same way as they are on the alice shoulder straps? If that's the case, Does anyone know of an online store where I can go to purchase the lower quick release straps? I see the upper portion of the shoulder straps being sold all over ebay but, if it's not a complete setup then, it won't do me any good..

Just wondering again..
Thanks!!
