Anyone know about the horizontal ten speed? I'm really digging the style, but is it practical?

Anyone has an idea for black multicam combat pants and shirt ? Two months delay from crye here, so it's not an option.

>>33323830
Looks dumb to be honest. Even if they hold 99.9999% of the time, are they really going to increase your reload times?

>>33324090
I think it's more about the space it frees up on the vest.

>>33324099
personnaly I'm more concerned about the space it will prevent me from getting to because of the mags. There's a reason you put them vertically and it's for it not to fuck up with your non-dominant arm movements.

What it do Frenchman. I've been on the fence about an HK45c lately...either that or a Springer TRP 1911.

>dat OD frame aesthetic

hnnnng

>>33324193
HK45C all day my brotha. It's way better than the HK45 full size if you ask me, except for the rail, you'll have to shop for a Viridian lamp or a TLR3. I didn't because I feel like it's nice as it is. But I should probably shop for a small light to have on the side with it.

Strangely enough, it's the only of my guns that I don't have much pictures of, even thouh it's my favorite handgun beside the USP that I kinda regret selling but hey, that OD HK45 is sexy as fuck too and the rig with it ? Fucking terrible man.

I've been leaning 45c myself man...could pull double duty as a carry gun. Already have some 1911 goodness and as much as I want a TRP, it's probably only a marginal increase in quality/performance.

Not too worried about the rail...probably wouldn't throw a pistol light on there.

>>33324159
What else would you add to the belt?

>>33324253
Honestly, if I were to do it again, maybe I would have buy myself a second HK45C, now that I'm thinking about it. Using the HK45CT with a WML and the other one to beat the shit out of it.

But hey, it's HK, I can beat the shit out of all those anyway.

Nothing really. More just finalizing layout and potentially replacing that holster. It's great for concealment but I'll probably get a mid-ride made for that VP9 for competition and course stuff.

It's HK. You can beat the shit out of it all you want and it will come out the other end shining. You know dis.

Man, I'm glad that the first gun I ever shot was a 44 magnum and that I got to learn on a CZ SP01 Shadow.

Also I was in Paris before and had a sweet stand that was also my local gun shop kek.

hey guys, the pastebin was confusing and im tired of sifting through thousands of listings for things that may or may not work, so sorry to bother y'all with this, but can you help me find a reasonably priced kydex holster fitted for leg drop/thigh position that fits a gen4 G34 with a surefire x300 U-B mounted on it? Extra points if it fits a red dot too but I won't be picking one of those up for a while so it isn't imperative.

I am an MD fag so I will trade knowledge for info etc.

Strikefired ? Glock. I customed the hell out of one. They're not pretty but good everywhere, even some of them are grenades :^) plus with a bit of work you can make one totally aesthetic. If I were to go back to 9mm, maybe I'd get myself a G34 and a G26 and John Wick the hell out of them.

Hammer fired ? The new CZ P07 (not the first batch that came out, those were really shitty, FTE / FTF / double feed all the time) seems like a great compact do everything gun to me.

Tru spec isn't bad in terms of their combat shirts. I've never used their pants.

Keep in mind, however, that they are a lot cheaper than cryes and will be less sturdy and not as well built.

It's in 2 months back order in France. Because I asked. To the ones selling it. In France.

Tru-Spec pants are alright, but their combat shirts suck. They're really fucking baggy in the arms. If you're looking for something in Black Multicam then get TS, because you're wasting your money if you're buying actual CP shit in black Multicam.

>>33325409
Maritimes, yeah, but original XL Ops Core FAST ballistic helmets were around 3lbs. I think 3.6lbs is a bit much for the size, but it's not awful considering the price. I'm more wondering whether or not it's got the ballistic protection it says it has.

>I read the pastebin but it didn't go into detail about why AR500 packages are garbage. Anyone care to enlighten me?

Even if they worked as advertised, no advantages over ceramics. People who vaunt "multihit!" must even admit that by the time you're getting hit 5+ times, the spall coating will definitely be gone (assuming the spall coating worked as advertised).

The fact that "NIJ III+" is used in advertising is deceptive and makes me trust them less, since it *implies* it's an NIJ rating when it isn't.

NUMEROUS recalls over product QC issues should cast extreme doubt over reliability.

The anti-ceramic arguments are usually sour grapes idiocy from people who think "ceramic = kitchen plate material"

>Also, what should come first, rifle optic or plates + carrier?

tbqh, if you care about any kind of "practical" use: Pistol+CCW holster, then medical kit + training. After that it's all LARP gear.

It's mostly the fact that Black Multicam is useless as a camouflage. I've got a buddy who has it and it even stands out at night time because of the pattern.

It's neat, but it's not effective nor is it meant to be. If you want a Multicam that would work in your environment, Tropic would probably fit the bill.

>>33326952
AR500 packages are garbage because AR500 is garbage.

They've had constant recalls, QC issues, and recent stuff not even passing NIJ testing. It's heavy for what you're actually buying and steel is just a flat "no" in the first place. In terms of ceramics they're probably one of the most mediocre in terms of Ceramic plate quality. It's very heavy and there are dozens of other far better dealers out there for probably cheaper as well.

I'm looking at picking up a crye gp 6x11x4 but I don't have enough molle on the back of my lbt plate carrier. Can someone who owns one or a similar pouch let me know if this would work? I was thinking maybe adding some Velcro to the pouch could secure it in lue of the molle the large Velcro field takes up.

I used my first pair on wood trips, they've seen shitload of water, mud, heat, someone tried to stab me and they prevented me from getting cut too bad. What did you fucking do to them lol.

I love Mechanix gloves for how tactile they are and how easy it is to work in them. They are pretty rugged from a material standpoint but when I would work labor jobs I'd go through a pair or two in a week.

Hopefully their bigger/more tactical line of gloves hold up better. If not their other ones are cheap enough you could buy 5 pairs for the cost of a single pair of cheaper outdoor research ones.

I would attempt to make some sort of hateful comment but that camo is rad as fuck looking. I'm really fighting the urge to get a mayflower chest rig in multimeme tropic when I know ranger green is my old standby.

So story time.

>be me young handsome scottish / asian guy born in France, with a decent sense of morale. So, I moved back from Paris after dodging the Bataclan with my girlfriend and ended back in a cinema. Having friends taking bullet to the knees and the usual violence of Paris really ended up boring the hell out of me.
>So I moved to my hometown, in the French Alps. Opened an asian restaurant. And then it fucking happened. All those drug dealers getting out of jail, taking over the neighbourhood.
>I'm not a coward. I don't run away. And they just love it. So they started by breaking some stuff of mine. They trashed the menu out of my restaurant. They punctured the tires of the dad's car. Two of them. TWICE.
>Then they fucking attacked with an electric shocker an old lady in front of me. That was it. I made them run away. Then at night they would follow me. One night, as I was walking my battlebuddy, they attacked me with a knife, battlebuddy and myself made them run away again after biting the arm of one and puching his head several times.
>I dodged a bad stab and just got myself three very light cut on the left arm.
>This very night, they tried to burn my restaurant with me and my parents inside. I made them run away again, pushed away the containers with all the oil in it.
>So they tried again next day.
>They tossed rocks and bricks to all the windows of my restaurant
>I should probably mention that 5 cops of the BAC were detained that week end because they shot a guy pointing a "fake gun" at them with a machete
>So no cops
>They were coming with molotov cocktails
>But they ran away once again because my dad and I we really pissed.

Now there's a """""truce""""" because I know a guy who knows a guy, who knows a guy.

But honestly, it's just another sign that civil war is coming / here

No idea about the BALCS but what little pack do you have strapped on the back of your carrier there?

Related, y'all seen the new, bigger HSP flat pack plus yet?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PcY1HZXb1DA

>>33327914
Lbt 9093. Wouldn't really reccomend it desu unless you have some actual stuff to put in the pack. I use it as a hydration carrier and then will carry extra batteries, more med stuff, and a bunch of smaller tools ie multitool, needle nose pliers, hatchet fits in the bigger pocket.

Unless you're carrying some extra stuff then it's too big. And too small to be more than a day pack. I'd reccomend the (Eagle?) pack. GT has it in one of his videos and it's the same thing but a smaller.

Assuming you mean police/judicial system? That's a fucking travesty man. Can't defend yourself with greater force. Can't rely on local law enforcement to have your back. The French deserve better.

At least if civil war breaks out and the rule of law collapses you're armed better than 99% of your neighbors.

Local law enforcement got my back when they can though. It's not their fault most of the time...France judicial system is fucked up.

Once when I was in Seine Saint-Denis, which is fucking Saint-Denistan to be true, a dindunuthin' was insulting my mother, was threatening to me and tried to trash out or tobacco store.

I was 17 at the time, ended up pushing him out of the store with my dad. He broke my glasses, so I punched him until he was out, my battlebuddy bit his arm (yeah, he likes biting arms, good doggo). In the end, my dad got fined (as the dindu, because, it was fucking obvious he was guilty, with like, clear evidences) and they tried with me too until our lawyer told them that I was minor at the time (justice BTFO, can't even read a date of birth). Also, the judges told my dad and I that "no one goes into a store to be attacked by a group and that we were lucky enough that they didn't ask to put the dog down".

Really, the more I think about it, the more I know that I fucked up staying here. That's funny in a sad way.

Well, at least I have good buddys and can still get a bit of the gear / firearms fun.

I needed some boots for work after my last ones took a dump, picked up a set of side zip boots for $25 at Big 5 Tactical Goods with tip money, so essentially zero out of pocket.
I work as a tow truck driver so they see some pretty hard use. There's a lot of climbing and jumping involved in all sorts of climate and environments.

Normally I'd use Belleville, Danner or Bates boots, but I didn't have that kind of cash right now.
My feet haven't fallen off and they are good enough, and surprisingly comfy. I'll be keeping you gents up to date on how well they last. I'm not expecting anything longer than about 2-3 months.

Yes they work

closest place to ask currently

What's the gist on quikclot currently? I know in the past theres been shit about it being hard to remove and causing blood clots to kill your ass, but have they changed anything yet?

Also what's the point of the sponge versus the folded gauze? I'd imagine anything severe enough that requires a hemostatic would be a penetrating wound where stuffing it with gauze would be more effective than setting something on top

>>33331154
And actually use my gear? Pffft. I work in an office now where the most interesting thing that happens is someone forgets a memo.

>my warrior spirit is dying senpai

>>33331933
According to the TCCC course I took the gist is that the powder is still fucking awful for a variety of reasons.

Opinion there on the treated gauze was that it didn't cause problems, but it wasn't really any more effective than untreated gauze- and you can't use it on eye or face wounds, making it less versatile.

> I'd imagine anything severe enough that requires a hemostatic would be a penetrating wound where stuffing it with gauze would be more effective than setting something on top

Tangential- use an occlusive seal if possible on shit rather than just stuffing everything you see with gauze. Gauze stuffing is for the groin and armpit where an occlusive seal won't work.

>>33331933
The sponge is also a thermogenic and it causes severe burns to the surrounding skin. I'm not sure if this problem is the same with the gauze and powder

Gauze will always be better. Combat gauze is the shit. The sponge sounds like a gimmick.

Although with combat gauze you need to put that right up in the artery for it to work. Otherwise the clotting agent won't do its job.

Quikclot the powder form is still bad.

So I see a lot of guys that have gloves attached to belts using 'biners and such. I'm probly just dumb, but how exactly does that work in as far as taking them off to put on. Isn't it extremely awkward to do? I feel like I'm missing something? Do you take the 'biner off WITH the gloves, or take each one off the 'biner separately?

>>33333192
I love 'biners, but seriously fuck using that shit with gloves. Just loop a rubber/hairband somewhere and use that to trap your gloves - keeps em from flopping around

What this sad individual is trying to say is, take the gloves off the biner. Better yet, don't use a biner. Wear the gloves, when not in use, tuck them in your back pocket like a normal human, or gp pouch, or another pocket. Point is, putting them on a carabiner is more trouble and adds something for shit to snag on.

Powder is a no go. Sponges are a waste of time. Combat gauze is the way to go when applied correctly.

Let me emphasize that. When. Applied. Correctly. Packed in, held with pressure (like, set your knee on it) for at least three minutes, and bandaged over.
>>33332015
Occlusive seals go on the chest/back to allow breathing. Of course you don't want to go packing thoracic wounds with gauze.

No one competent would ever suggest using quickclot on a person's face. Where the hell were you trained?

I guess I'm blind but I'm not seeing any modifications other than taping your tails like anybody that's been around a staff NCO for 1 second would.

Care to enumerate? Now I'm curious.

>>33323794
So, I placed an order with Gearcraft on 9 February for their micro chest rig and 3 of their faux tacos. I haven't heard shit from them since, no order confirmation or shipping info or anything.

I sent them an email in both English and google-translated Russian on Monday inquiring about the order, and haven't gotten a response yet.

Their website estimated total order completion time of 3-5 weeks for my address specifically when I placed it and promised an order confirmation within 72 hours and fully transparent processing (IE they'd send an email when it was confirmed, when it was processed for shipping, and status updates with tracking number for it going through customs which was supposed to be the big holdup).

I think I got ripped off. Should I dispute the charges with paypal, or continue to wait? I've got until 9 August before I can't dispute it any more.

>>33336424
They take longer than they estimate, had the same problem. Up to you if you wanna wait

So do you think this is a case of "slavs being lazy" or a case of "slavs being thieving little shits"?

The company seems to have an over-all good reputation on the internet but I think the entire internet has only purchased from them like 30x.

>>33336500
Ah cool.

I actually had my bare woodland one in my lap when I posted that, I guess I am just blind.

>>33336556
Well, I sent them another email. If I haven't gotten any response by the end of the month I'm disputing the charges through Paypal and they can get fucked. 2 months without even an order confirmation is bullshit.

>>33336580
That's reasonable

>>33336504
Whelp gearcraft gives no shits about civvie fucks, they do a lot of gear for ruski special forces all the time. So unless you're a slav and can call them everyday or visit their shop and brainfuck them you're fucked.

>>33337109
Eh if it goes through I'm getting a full chest rig for like $40USD so I though it'd be worth the gamble.

Not like if they fuck me Paypal won't side with me so all it'll cost me is time.

>>33337117

I love these South African rigs.

>>33337631
You know it's chest rig right? Not a tummy rig

>>33337631
They look unbalanced and huge for what they carry to me, but I've never worn one so I'm just going off looks.

Whatever floats your goat man.

>>33337645
Yeah, I find wearing it a little lower makes it more comfortable to shoulder the rifle and makes it a bit easier to grab the magazines.

>>33336550
>mfw sitting here playing with my FLC
I just realized mine's so old it doesn't have the zip front and is buckle only.

Also if I shorten the takeup straps in the back enough it rides high enough the drag handle doesn't sit on the back of my neck.

I may make some alterations to it like making the top buckle non-adjustable and reroute the back straps into an X, but it's definitely usable as is.

Its the tt harness as well.

>>33338099
I should add that there is a camelbak molle pouch connected to the back of the harness.

>>33337649

anyone ordered a AWS belt around here and have experience with their shipping? After a month they finally charged my card but does anyone have an idea how long it takes them to actually ship it and if they will shoot me an email saying its shipped?

Got an INCOG in the productions. Cya in a few months!

What is higher priority: water or med supplies?
I imagine water since you need it all the time, but the times you need meds you really really need it.

>>33338566
water

>>33338566
Med supplies. Unless you live way out in a rural area you can just fill bottles with your tap and store it

>>33338625
>shooting range is 5 hours from home
Water it is then.
I already have a kit for my truck just not a fully filled ifak.

>>33338718
Sounds like you'd be best served keeping a couple commercial 3L or 1gal jugs of water in your trunk. Hot water is still water and unless you live in the frozen wastes it will remain liquid for the next ~6 months.

Which other than the ~$2 buying it at walmart leaves you with med shit.

A basic bleeder/blowout setup should run you under $40
>cheap crinkle gauze, 2 packs
>israeli bandage
>CAT-TC
You can use a flap-top mag pouch until you get a good IFAK pouch with that little amount of stuff

>>33338811
To expound on this,
>Israeli bandage
Runs from $6-9
>crinkle gauze
Runs around $3 for a 6ftx1" roll in a standard medical soft blister pack or around $6 for the vacuum-sealed "combat" heavy-mil wrapper
>tourniquet
I know I said the CAT-TC but I'm finding SOFTT's cheaper by about $10 in most places. Unless you're willing to use a surplus one that may either be out of its wrapper or have a compromised wrapper (not a big deal on a TQ but some people are anal) they're gonna run you $25-40. If you are willing to get a milsurp CAT-TC they're like $5 but I recommend buying 2 at a go in case one's defective.

Hey guys im in the market for a quality Chest Rig that's under 150$, that is a simple molle set up, and in these colors
-Tan
-Ranger Green
-OCP/Multicam

Also can anyone convince me to not order this?
http://spiritussystems.com/flag-bungee/

I want to use it when i go hiking with my hombres, we take a Texas flag and and we pose on the highest point with it

>>33338892
Kinda expensive for a bit of bungee cord. But if that's what you do, go for it.
>tfw the highest point in my state is 512ft ASL
Be pretty unimpressive for me.

Also, D3CR is nice.

>>33338938
Ive seen the D3CR, but i want something with molle across the whole thing, so i can put my gear where i like it as apposed to a fixed location

>>33338954
Ah, well I'll let someone else field that then. I went straight from a full armor vest to the D3CR so I don't have any experience with other chest rigs.

Start: ACT 2.
Setting: Facebook, Alt account.
Scene opens with Johnson PMing with the Arktis guy. Johnson being the headstrong resiliant bastard he is continues his quest for his goddamn pants. Arktis guy seems scared and confused, not sure why he has to eat all the eggs.

Johnson, question: Will I ever get my arktis pants?
Arktis guy, statement: YEAH WE'LL SEND ANOTHER PAIR RIGHT NOW!!
Johnson, statement: When will I get my arktis pants?
Arktis guy: [silence is all I've ever known]

With this Johnson once again has to continue his quest. Answers seemingly will never come.

End of act 2.

Ditch chest mag pouches, replace with cheap open top molle shingles. Put magpuls on those 4 mags. You will thank me later. I will hear and accept those thanks from far away, "You're welcome, friend."

Caching. Don't carry everything around, that's uneconomic. Put stuff away here and there, especially on routes you need when something happens. That way you'll always have shit nearby. With enough caches you can loose half your shit and still have more than you need without carrying shit.

This.
I currently don't have any useable caches but I have some in testing just to see if I can keep them there and the items remain safe.
My favorite one is a .30cal can with what I assume are good seals wrapped in three trash bags and vacuum sealed. Haven't been able to look since its frozen solid in a river and I don't want to break the ice an make it obvious something is there.
I feel like a spy when I go check on my drops.

So what is the line between /milsurp/ and /gear/?
I see an awful lot of milsurp here being used for gear and discussed and that is fine but I also see lots of people asking about milsurp that get told to go to milsurp.
What is it?
