I have a gift card for about $130 bucks at sportsmans warehouse. Wondering if I should buy an actual hiking pack (4300 cubic inch or more) or if I should blow it on ammo?

This is the pack i'm looking at http://www.sportsmanswarehouse.com/spor ... /cat100856

So I could get that and something else (maybe a sleeping mat)....or I could buy a bunch of littles.

I've also been looking at those portable solar panels but just don't know how practical they really would be....anybody have ideas? I really don't need any tents, fishing, hunting gear, so mostly backpacking gear or gun gear....Maybe a katadyn filter.........I need so many things I just can't decide on what though!!!

I would go with the 15 watt solar panel if it was a gift card. I always try to buy something that I normally wouldn't buy with my own money if someone gives me a gift card. The solar panel though is exactly $129 for the 15 watt, which you can get on ebay for about $40 though. I think this one has the built in charger and batteries to. Just a good way to get into learning solar. Just my 2 pennies though. Ammo is ALWAYS a good choice, you'll tripple your money in a year!
