How come I have seen different ones? They are USMC but are they different models?
Thanks,

Please show me the ones you looked at.

I saw haversacks like these:
WWII Impressions U.S.M.C. Personal Field Equipment
EARLY USMC M1941 HAVERSACK - Page 3 - FIELD & PERSONAL GEAR - U.S. Militaria Forum
Here are links to some of the websites.
Thanks,

Thanks, I was also having trouble finding a site to help me set up the pack!
Thanks for the help,

My pleasure. Many moons ago I used to own a rig like that. Now long gone....
Cheers, Ade.

Here's some of the sites I was using. I have mine mostly together, but it still looks in disarray mainly because I need another mannequin(my nephew is in Hawaii, or I'd use him
I have a PDF file of the USMC manual that shows how it looks all together, but they didn't add all of the manual, so it's kind of trial by error. I don't know how to put it on here, or remember the site where I got it from. But the pencil site has it down pretty good, I used that one too.
Your pack is a 4th pattern, with the roll up top. The others had a flap. Are there any markings on it? they did use this into the Vietnam war, too.
I hadn't seen any markings on it at all. Could it have been used in WW2?
Thanks,
Michael
