Battalion level edition. Could you equip a battalion sized element of infantry with copies of your gear? Would they be effective? What would the privates bitch about? How expensive would it be?

Im pretty sure everyone would bitch about tubes, and someone's going to rip their 6/12 webbing. I think everything else would be pretty well received. Saw gunners and ammo bearers would NEED a bigger belt.
>>
Custom gear options is basically Special Forces.

Clearly a standarization of personalised equipment doesnt work and that's why SF has relative freedom of gearing up.

It would be more effective than standard issue, but you can't get past the personal taste and allocation of stuff that will never work for everyone.

Repasting. I'm taking my kit out on a hike along with my MR pack today. Nice and light. I really, really love how light and balanced the belt feels now.

I'm be grabbing some new armor soon. I already have an IBA but my chest is too big to let me close the top, and a custom made plate carrier from a friend but it was his first attempt and it has no features or MOLLE. Pretty sure I';; either rebuy a PIG or a Mayflower.

I agree completely. It just makes sense to keep pistol mags with the actual pistol. As for the pouches sliding around I wouldn't use the ones on my chest rig. I have a few smaller ones designed for a belt. The belt also has velcro on the back for extra support.

Packages aren't usually held unless a delivery change option is made by the customer, or a delivery intercept by the shipper. Generally the 27 are is not particularly strong. You sure YOU didn't fuck it up?

Anyways, in 13 hours i will have access to the intranet. I may be able to upgrade your service level and redirect your package for local pickup in the roanoke 240-9 SLIC sat 8am local time at the latest. Obviously your tracking number would reveal your identity to everyone. But if you give me the shipper name and the last 4 digits of your tracking # you would only be revealed to me, any other authorized UPS employee, and/or motivated federal agents.

I can make no guarantees, though.

>>30145244
I can't think of anything I've done that would have messed it up, all I've done is check the tracking number frequently. I ordered it Sunday, paid $20 for the 3 day select, Monday was a federal holiday, and it shipped Tuesday. I'd be more understanding if it got delayed until tomorrow, but why is it going to take 4 extra days to get three hours to my location?

Could you (or UPS) actually get it sent to Roanoke by tomorrow? That would be pretty awesome. The last four digits are 5338 and the shipper is US Elite Gear. Should I call UPS and see if they can get that ball rolling now?

Of course better protection equals less causalities. However I think the type of fighting and the intensity of the wars/conflicts is a huge confounding variable for those ratios.

Considering all I have is an AR, Glock, LBT 6094 and 3 day pack and helmet then yes I could. They'd bitch about something, probably the cummerbund being velcro and not something super high speed like buckles or tunes. Or the shoulder pads could be wider/more padded.

Looking for a greyman/low profile non-tactical looking bag under $150-$200. Would like it to pull double duty as a school bag, so if it fits a 15-17" laptop it's a huge plus. I'll be moving around a lot so something that keeps in place with good straps is preferable.

Already checked out the Vertx EDC (closest to what I'm looking for), Maxpedition doesn't offer anything I like, and neither does 5.11. Anyone have any recommendations?

>>30145859
Condor does not come with a source. That bladder is an upcycled gallon freezer bag and some fish tank tubing with a dasani sport top duct-taped to it compared to a source.

>>
>>30146485
Like >>30144909 said, it isn't. $20k is about right, $3k for NVG (not everyone gets thermals but let's assume this guy is special so that's another $4k), $1400 for body armor, $800 for the rifle with accessories, and that's all the big ticket items. The rest is misc gear.
>>
>>30146485
Oh shit. I misunderstood. I adjusted for 2006 because that's when the OP pic came out. As you can see, it's about $3,500 of inflation in the last ten years so I felt it was fair since I was adjusting for 1945 and 1968.

1. There is no such thing as MOPP 5.

2. Running battle drills in MOPP is retarded as it wastes time getting out of the area, and wearing gear over MOPP degrades its effectiveness, as does throwing yourself at the ground.

MOPP 5 is not a level. MOPP levels already include field gear.

>Can you guess why?

Because infantry is retarded? There is no practical reason to be rolling in MOPP 4 for days on end. Your suits will have degraded massively in effectiveness and had you been in a real chemical situation your protection would have been degraded to the point of uselessness. They'd be better off teaching you how to move in a chemical environment to limit contamination, use varieties of detection equipment, and set up/help with EPDS.

I was at a JRTC event where chemical weapons were a big part of the scenerio and infantry was wearing JSLIST almost the whole time and practicing battle drills with it. Absolutely retarded waste of time. It caused them to take shortcuts on protective gear which got them "killed" when they encountered simulated threats, and the simulated threats were often going easy on them in terms of judging suit soakthrough and expired, unchanged filters.

Unless you're wearing Tyvek and SCBA, you GTFO of a chemical area quick and in a hurry, not stick around and fight.

>>
>>30146951
Yes, it ruins your gear. If you are wearing MOPP 4 for days on end it degrades your protective levels. Doing battle drills in MOPP gear is the last thing you'd want to do in a chemical environment. I'm curious exactly what your detection and decon procedures were for unmasking to eat. Or did you just hand wave it?

>JRTC
Joint Readiness Training Center. Which is where units go to do their large scale full up training.

Not green. In fact I've actually been on real chemical incidents, so it's weird to have somebody who's primary job is not to deal with this stuff talk about it.

I'd wager you were in full protective mode for invasion force on force training. Which, to reiterate, is retarded. There is no reason to be masked up for that long. It does more harm than good to both troops and to gear, which will be worn out by the time you actually need it.

>>30144142
So I recently picked up an LBT plate carrier that says it fits medium or large sapi plate. I bought 1 large plate to gauge fit. Well the large plate fits perfect in the back but is seemingly a little too large for the front. By this I mean it sticks out the bottom by .5 inch. However there is about .75 inch room left at the top. The issue is that it seems slightly too wide to get all the way in (about 1/8th of inch on both sides) and gets stuck right were the PC cuts under the armpits.

So the question: Is the plate carrier just slightly too small (human/machine error) or am I supposed to jam the plat in so it is really tight? Or does M/L mean that one plate is supposed to be be Medium and one is supposed to be Large?

I dont think it is the last bit because the PC comes with 2 pockets on both sides. The primary pocket looks like it is designed to fit large plates and the secondary pocket looks like it is designed to fit small plates.

Any thoughts or advice?

well there's your first problem. what you need to do is take back your sexist piece of shit, check your privilege and then buy the LBGT carrier.
>jam it in tight
as good as it feels to just jam it in there nice and tight (mmmmmmm) your plate should be "snug" but not "tight". it sounds to me your carrier isn't made to standard. my advice would be to buy a cheap ass carrier and see if your plates fit. if they do, you know it's the carrier and not the plates.

Talking airsoft reproductions of modern tactical gear? It's crap. Those put all the focus on *looking* good, not being especially tough or using high quality materials (especially the stitches, Velcro, and elastic). Even high end airsofters just buy real shit instead of repro.

The reason chicom is so cheap is because it is mass, mass, mass produced and it's dead simple. No printed camo pattern, no MOLLE, no plastic parts. Just nylon and some wood tabs.

The next cheapest gear is going to be US surplus ALICE and then FLCs. Similarly, this stuff is cheap due to mass production and not paying a license on stuff like "operator" camo patterns.

Mostly true but not always. Pantac and Flyye make excellent products, priced between real shit and cheap repro, made of 500D or 1000D cordura, and pretty durable.
Also they look good, because they're accurate copies of what Paraclete and Eagle Industries make.

It would surprise you how much expensive gear I own and have used. Honestly, this cheap ass belt and setup are the most comfortable and lightest gear I've found. Some people get blinded by that conspicuous spending mentality rather than just using and adjusting the gear to themselves. The gear is there to help *you* operate, not do the operating for you. To each their own.

>even a fucking double mag pouch from condor (a company known for cheap ass gear) cost more than a type-56/81 chest rig
Is there something I'm not getting here? I can't tell if just about everything that isn't chicom is stupidly overpriced or if chicom is just stupidly underpriced.
Is a bit of velcro and some extra canvas for molle really worth about $80? Is chicom literally made out of paper or something?
I don't understand this pricing!
>>
>>30152004
chicom is love chicom is life
>>
>>30152004
Chicom is insanely low priced. This is because of the huge mass scale it is produced on and because the chest rigs are fucking simple. Most only have non-patterned cloth and a few wood tabs. Simple as fuck, and they have been made in bulk for literally decades.

Compared to Condor, which is a small, single company which makes gear in patterned camo, makes gear with a variety of materials (canvas, velcro, zipper, buttons, buckles, etc) in a single pouch, and which has to do more complicated sewing like MOLLE loops on front and the attachment straps on back. More effort intensive than chicom and done on a smaller scale.

Next to Chicom, the next most underpriced stuff is US surplus. For the reason that it has been made in insane bulk amounts for decades. US stuff is more expensive than Chicom because it has more complex construction and materials, but it's still cheap as fuck for what it is.

I've got an old pic of the pack's contents laid out, but that was when it was a dedicated BOB. Right now is just some core items:
>rations for 2-3 days
>4-5 spare mags
>IFAK
>survival shit (trash bags, fire making, water tabs, etc)
>change of socks/undies
>hydration bladder
>misc shit like cord, lamps, multitool

Here's a close-up of the chest rig,
Little pockets:
>fruit snacks
>mini-IFAK (ppe, gauze, ace bandage, tape, antiseptic, AfterBite)
>cleaning kit (boresnake, bolt scraper)
>spare 10 round glock mag
>spare earpro
>baofeng BF-F8+
>granola bar

>40 round pmag x2

lift more or get a better gun. I've got an SKS with the tapco shit stock and it's awful. The weight balance gets all fucked up if it's not in the wood stock because the front end is pretty heavy. I would do what literally every other gun owning californian does and make a cali legal AR/AK with a bunch of 30 round makes with a blocker to make them 10rd mags, and have all the parts to convert the gun to standard if shit goes south.

What's the skinny on this Contingency Procurement Group I'm seeing everywhere?

I've got no plans to buy one, but I'm interested regardless.
>>
>>30155907
If it sounds too good to be true..

It is cheap Chinese knockoffs with airsoft hardware and shady manufacturing. They probably sent a solid batch to the testing lab to get the nod and them shit out the cheap shit under the cert.

It is an expensive bump helmet, might stop some shrapnel, may stop a bullet without you dying. Is it as good as a legit US made ops core fast? No way.

It is also worth pointing out that the manuf. claiming a piece of armor is designed to pass NIJ testing is not the same as the piece of armor actually being NIJ certified. For example, velocity systems sells some armor plates that would pass NIJ level III testing, but because they are intended for the military which has its own testing protocols, they never bothered to get these plates tested by NIJ. Now Velocity Systems is a reputable company and their special-threat plates will stop some crazy shit like 7.62x39 API, but it's not uncommon for low end companies to make claims that suggest NIJ certification, when in fact if you look the plates up with the NIJ's list, they were never tested.

So you are trying to say that buying a slick PC and a chest rig or vest is the way to go as opposed to what your original question which was
>why buy a plate carrier
I think you coulda reduced quite a few steps of Q&A here with a more well though out question.
>>
>>30156249
Probably that yeah, why buy a plate carrier?
>>
>>30156004
That's what I'm thinking as well. They seem to be like Browe Optics in that their helmets are sold for $1000 but they've got promo codes up for $300, which means that something's funky.

It's definitely not an Ops Core (it's about a pound heavier from what I've been reading), but at the same time it's also not a $1400 helmet (when the fuck did they up the price on that, by the way? They used to be cheaper than Airframes). Like I said, not looking to purchase one, but I'm intrigued.

>>30156122
This is also true.
>>
>>30156275
What kind of situation are you envisioning in which you are going to carry a long gun and mags for it, but not wear any armor? For many people a situation that allows you to carry a carbine is a situation that allows you to wear a plate carrier.
>>
>>30156153
I had a stroke and the wrote that up.
>>
>>30156275
Because some people like their gear all together rather than split between a slick and a chestrig?

>>30156345
What, like going to the range? Then you can just wear some mag pouches on your belt, lets you get a better position in the prone.

I'm of the opinion that they're mostly the same except for really cheap ones.

As for holster/belt pouches to start out - good choice. I went the other way and regret it.
>>
>>30157749
I guess you could run it as some kind of inner cummerbund. Or just take it out and tighten the actual cummerbund, like most 6094s are set up as. (what I did). If you don't need load carrying ability on your sides you can just not install the molle cummerbund and use the elastic straps. If you take off the shoulder pads it actually could conceal under a jacket.

A new Israeli-made OTV with collar/yoke, throat protector and groin protector all in woodland.
A Truspec combat shirt in woodland.
USGI knee pads in woodland.
A T-10 reserve parachute for a camping canopy.
And an 8-pack of MC-6 parachute replacement panels for making hammocks and shit.

I also bought some 9mm and picked up a load of scrap wood to build target stands.

CPR mask with one way valve or one of those pumps

Shit mang, this shit wouldn't even get you through a 24 hour camping trip.

>>30160863
That's enough food for 3 days easy. Atleast for me. And going hungry isn't the end of the world. Atleast around men I can hunt and fish. I can just use leaves or a running stream for TP. I can boil water in my canteen. Sanitary stuff is in the baggy.

No leaves! Too many seem fine but have angry little hairs that will be bad times. Most are not turdcutter friendly. Use sphagnum moss, shit is fucking ace for wilderness asswipe. Regular common Moss is OK. Squirrels and rabbits are food and come with a nice and soft sanitary wipe.

Second. Use a dremmel with sanding wheel. Takes a few minutes, is safer than dog nail cutters if you pay attention to the dog telling you when to stop, and you can round the ends to limit destruction to furniture. You can also go on walks on pavement which is win/win.

I think a lot of faggots over estimate the value of quality. Inna field, artereykuck and cuntdor alike will get rekt, only difference is $50 vs $490. Obviously an exaggeration, but I'd rather have a couple pairs of the cheap shit verus 1 pair of triple cock in ass design so at least I can have clean, dry (but cheap) shit on me. Again, different missions, needs, and budget, but "kiss" bro, as I call him, with the 7inch troy rail and the duct taped cleaning rod is one of my fav geardos.

Maybe, but I drop nearly $300 on my STT, bought ceramic plates, have a nearly $2000 ar15, and all sorts of shit. I'm not nearly as experienced as some of these prior serviced, but having at least 1 change of clothes makes a load of difference inna field, do spending the money on 3 sets of gi tier clothes makes more sense than 1 set of Arc'teryx stuff. In gear queering (and guns in genrral) you can drop serious cash if you really want to, but after getting base line of not airsoft tier, it's really training and physical condition and occupation that makes the difference. koko has some middle of the road as fuck gear, but he's got sexy legs, recon experience and 4 years in 82nd, so people listen to his ass.

Not all dogs have easy to spot quick(dark nails) and clippers crush the nail as they dull during one session and can cause problems as a result. My dog will not tolerate nail clippers(shiba inu NISM) so a dremmel is the absolute best answer. If clippers work, then you do you but using a dremmel after it being recommended by a dog groomer friend has converted me. Just do it outside after mowing the lawn or whatever because nail powder gets all over and a shower/new clothes is required.

>>30162963
i know camping bags are measured in liters but i have no idea what i want in that regard.

but i don't plan on any extended treking
i just want a durable daypack with external MOLLE
but a set of bottom lashing so i can attach a small bivy if i wanted too (but that's not an absolute requirement)
also i'd prefer Coyote as a color option, all my gear is coyote and i would prefer it to match
>>
>>30164322
As a general rule:
35L is a daypack(bigger than an average school bag, carries 20lbs comfortably and 30lbs is extreme).

A 55L 3-day bag(a medium size hiking pack, carries 30lbs comfortably and 40lbs is extreme).

The weight/volume depends on design. You wouldn't want to carry 60lbs without a frame and hip pads.
