The RAINSMORE Military Tactical Backpack is number 7 in this guide. It is a 950 g polyester rucksack at £15.99, rated 4.4 out of 5 from 132 ratings, with five compartments, seven pockets, MOLLE webbing and a water-resistant finish.

Its own listing gives three different answers on capacity. The title, the size field and the storage volume field all say 40L; the first bullet says 43L; and the dimensions printed in the same listing, 33 x 27 x 52 cm, multiply out to 46.3 litres. That runs against the pattern in most of this guide, because here the arithmetic lands above the number on the label rather than below it. A different number fails to add up in the other direction: the star breakdown beside the 4.4 average counts 74, 6, 12, 5 and 3 ratings, which comes to 100, not the 132 the listing states. Everything on this page comes from the Amazon listing; we have not tested the pack.
