I have a pack from true north that I like. I see some different ones on ebay that look alright. You need a shelter too though. The pack is supposed to sit lower so that you can wear a hose pack for progressive lays... Just a thought.

We use the True North packs also. I like them. They are made solid and have a variety of pockets for different equipment. We also use the chest harness for radio's, cell phones, extra batteries.

Try this link below.  They have most if not all of the FSS issue gear.  Website is tricky though but call the toll-free number and you can get what you need.  For an example I purchased the new GSA Main pack, Field pack and two canteen cases for around $60.00 and they are the original FSS issue.  Hope that helps.  Oh to compare prices or research FSS gear search the GSA  catalog - link is below.
