Put loops on the bottom of your mags, or sew a strap into each cell that wraps under the mag and sticks out for yanking on.

>>30293171
All the shit by me is either airshit with condor, rothco, and "surplus" or police stores with blackhawk and 5.11. The only halfway decent surplus store went out of business after 30 years because they couldn't meet market demands and had obscene markup.

I wish I had a GQ store to buy locally in instead of buying online. Shitsuxbro.jpg

If you buy plates, make sure that you get triple curved. They make a huge difference in terms of comfort.

>>30293913
That's what I've heard.
I'm kind of worried my spooky skeleton torso will lessen the effectiveness of stuff like that, but I guess I'll have to find somewhere selling plates to try them, or find out when I get some.

>>30293637
Greens blacks or greys?
The differences are important ones.

>>30293934

I'm actually quite thin as well and my plates (medium/10 x12) fit me just fine. Adding a soft armor backer or BALCS panel adds to the comfort.

Opinions on 6sh112 and 6b23-1? I ordered myself a set of both the plates and soft armor for 6b-23 and some SVD pouches for the 6sh112 which came with the complete assault pack and AK standard set of pouches.

>>30295919
112 is not so good, 116 and 117 have a way better belt.
6b23 is just obsolete steel plate garbge.

>>30295950
I believe ESAPI plates fit in a 6b-23 fairly easily. I have a spare set of plates from my JPC fuccboi NATO shit. As well as I'm getting some ESAPI side plates.

It's a First Spear "The Sloucher" BALCS armor vest. Really cool vest that does away with MOLLE webbing in favor of laser cut Cordura adhered to a tear-proof fabric backer. This is the future (I recently saw Eagle's new MBAV 2.0 and it's using this). In 5 years, I expect everyone to be going this route.

There is also no cummerbund flap to affix the cummerbund sides. Instead, the cummerbund is secured with a proprietary fastening system. No more annoying Velcro!!! I'm really digging it.

>those tiny hands
can you even reach the trigger on double action?

>>30293637
The difference between NIJ III and NIJ IV is not that big. Who the fuck is shooting black tip 30-06 at you? The real problem is that NIJ standards literally have no information about whether a plate will stop M855, M193, or 7.62x39 steel core, which are much more common rifle threats. The reason people pick NIJ IV is because the majority of level IV ceramic plates have no trouble with any of the aforementioned rounds, and because the availability of special threat rated plates is poor.

>>30293913
What soft armor cut is that? BALCS? Also y square plates?

Hitting up some Fayettenam tactical stores this weekend, new pics soon.

No guns though, still living in the barracks.

>>30296435
Yeah, it's a BALCS cut. Which square plates are you referring to, the big ones or the small ones? The big ones are level 4 stand alone "rear cut" plates. They're mainly meant to go in the rear of your plate/armor carrier, but you can wear them in the front too. The reason I have them is because of some deal on Fleabay. Admittedly, they aren't as comfortable as shooter cut plates and make me feel really bulky.

Why do you need all this shut? ISIS seems to do just fine in sandals and a towel. I'll be fighting the second civil war in my nikes jeans and a stylist graphic tee

>>30296760
Does the rear platebag in the sloucher fit them? Haven't checked in my 6094 but it seems like many PCs wouldn't fit them. Also do you think you could conceal a sloucher under a jacket if you only had the soft armor in?

>>30297932
Yeah, they should fit just fine as the carrier has stretch fabric on the sides to accommodate different plate sizes. I actually haven't tried to fit any of my ceramic plates in this specific carrier, but my Diamondback Tactical 10 x12 steel plates fit (they're the same size as my ceramics but thinner) I will try to fit them in when I get off work.

As for concealabilty, the armor carrier is very low profile and the sides are actually slick (it's basically a hybrid vest), so you most definitely could conceal it under a jacket especially if you have low profile plates like steel.

One hole, obviously. A single hole balaclava is a very versatile garment. You can wear it rolled up as a hat, covering everything except your eyes, covering everything except your face or pulled down around your neck as a muffler. You can't do those last two things with a two or three hole balaclava, because the holes are too small. Synthetic if you're in a hot climate, wool or wool-synthetic blend if you ever expect to be somewhere cold.

Its not just 30-06 Blacktip. Some of the hotter deer rounds like 270 lead free will fuck up III rated steel plates (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ojaz2pMKlgo)

Youre far more likely to be pelted with .270 rounds than steelcore 7.62x39 in the continental United States

It's great. BUT, it has a hollow grind, which is better for preparing game than splitting wood (which you shouldn't do). Hollow grinds have a thinner edge, which makes slicing through game easier, hence the reason it's one of the most popular hunting knives in America.

Not necessarily, because that shit weighs more. When each plate weighs 2-3 lbs more that ends up being a 4-6 lb increase total which is fairly significant.

>>30301216
Not all level III plates are steel. Special threat plates, when correctly chosen, will stop the vast majority of small arms threats barring black tip. Hot .270 will not perform the same against ceramic as it does against steel. Most of the low sectional density high velocity rounds that penetrate steel well perform poorly against ceramic or UHMWPE, regardless of level III or level IV. Also I wouldn't discount 7.62x39 as a rifle threat. There are plenty of AKs in CONUS and not all of them are in the hands of good people.

Both a Siege R and a Sleeper, very very nice. Some sweet oldskool stuff too. Can I ask what's the coyote colored carrier that you have above the Siege R?

Not sure the model with Euro gear, but that's some kind of AFV helmet with big ass headsets.

Fuck

Between you and Garand thumb I've been checking mine to see if they're still waterproof any time I'm near water. I have a gozillion miles on mine so I won't be terribly disappointed if/when they give out on me.

I saw your post from a thread or two back, yes I have gotten the Alpha LT pants and they're sweet. Haven't gotten to use them yet, and I probably won't until I go backpacking in the rain again, but I'll be glad I have them when I do.

I really wanted to get them in time for Nuggetfest but luckily the rain wasn't so bad in Virginia after all. It mostly rained at night but that just makes shit more /comfy/

There's a reason I pretty much use my Lowa LL Renegades almost every day, and the Salomon only on Rainy/slushy days.

I broke my Salomon's Goretex in less than 6 months.

yeah I'm not too sure what was up with it.
clearly one boot worked and the other didnt though, and mine are only a couple months old so back they go.
I'm hoping to get a burro pair next/to replace them.
and yeah, I managed to score a pair of LT's for like 170 bucks american in multicam so I was pretty stoked. I kinda hate the lack of pockets but they're great for what they are. also they arrived perfectly in time because it's been raining for like 4 days straight here.
>>30305152
mine were only a couple months old and I've worn them probably a dozen times so something was wrong from factory.

That's why you get III+ hybrid HDPE/ceramic. Best of both worlds. The lightness of a poly with just enough ceramic to defeat M855.

dang dude.
I calculated the age of my pairs life, and it only lasted 2 months and 18 days but I did cover 468 miles minimal in them in that time frame.

>>30305184
I know how you feel

>>30305277
I wouldn't blame their QC; the hiking shop guys were shocked how fucked my boots were by the time I turned it in for a return.
I did cover a decent amount of miles in them though -See above.

Yeah it conceals alright, better than tha paca I had, it's also much more breathable and comfortable than the paca
The fact that it's concealable BALCS is nice too, since all my carriers except for one of them take BALCS inserts

>>30305029
It's an eagle SPC, they were standard issue to the marine corps for a while before they switched to the IMTV and ISPC

They're pretty great carriers IMO


Also part II: clothes

Hill People Gear Kit Bag

I got this last year, it's fucking great. I use it when fishing innawoods. I keep a tackle box, pliers, wallet, GPS, light, knife, phone, and CC handgun on a Raven holster in it. It has a dedicated pocket for the gun with a loop for the holster lanyard.

I even use this when not carrying just because it's fucking convenient.

You will look autistic wearing it.

guys where can i find a similar slick plate carrier with side panel pockets like the one ar500 makes?

>>30305969
Ferro Slickster on SKDtac is close.

>>30305969

TAG Slick plate carrier (It might literally be the same thing as they may be contracted to make these for AR500).

http://www.tacticalassaultgearstore.com/slick-plate-carrier.html

>>30306057
Even if it is, at least you will know the name so you can buy it somewhere else without the insane lead time AR500 has on virtually all of their products .

>>30295919
which country is this from?

Russia, kinda surprised you didn't know.

Where at and how much?

I just got my PC in, I'm in need of some TACO's for 556 and maybe pistols. What are some realible brands?

And i guess i should get a tournicate and strap them onto the shoulder straps on my PC. What are some essentials for a combat tournicate?

>>30306522
Did you just ask what reliable TACO brand is?

>>30306522
The most reliable taco is the company that makes the taco... hsgi.

>>30306522
old el paso is alright

>>30305887
Who gives a shit about cool? Oh that's right gear queer faggots who play dress up.

>>30306522
Generally tourniquets should be level 3 or higher EPDI medical certified. A combat torniquet should have a carbon fiber weather/temp coating at a minimum especially if you have it exposed. Ideally you want it to have a full vibranium coating to ensure maximum temperature proofing though.

Whats the most secure kind of mag pouch?
is taco bell the way to go?

I have the same carrier. Can some one tell me why the front half slides down all the time with this. Also, was the paca designed for soft armor or why do my steel plates bulge like the dickens in it?

Yeah it's designed for BALCS inserts
Do you have soft armor?
Is your carrier adjusted right?

Mine had a compartment for sapi plates.

also, get some ceramics my dude.

>>30306666
Thanks!
Im having a time finding one up to that standard though, what do you carry?

How the fuck am I supposed to mount a knife to a battle belt?

If it put it vertically it either jams into my side (mounted from sheath) or might break the sheath when I sit down (mounted from handle area).

If I put it horizontally behind my back I can't see the damn sheath to put it back in (can't put it on the sides because mag pouches and holster are already taking up all the space).

Nobody told me this shit would be so hard. Should I just go full retard and get a drop leg setup?

>>30306749
I'm guns have to look up balcs inserts. I don't know if it's adjusted right, I think it is, I just have to keep sliding the front have up to be at the same level as the back, 3 minutes of walking around in it and the front is 2-3 inches lower than before. Mine has elastic on the inside with Velcro, and I added Velcro strips to my plates to make them stay in place, it works well. Getting ceramics is like at the bottom of my grocery list right now. I just got another ak, talking with a dude about buying his british
L1a1, and maybe 850 bucks worth of 7.62 steel core. And I still don't own a concealed carry permit or a compact pistol.

>>30306749
Where did you get your fake paca? All the airshit sites are outta stock/says discontinued. Except one Japanese site that's crazy expensive.

They have an eBay account and bid stuff off for cheaper.

I will probably take it to a tailor and have the excess fabric cut off, and have everything double stitched with quality thread in the future.

where can i get a sick patch from for cheap?

>>30306981
Cool guys mount it upside down on their support-side shoulder strap. You will have to relocate your vibranium coated tourniquet though. But the easiest way and what I actually recommend is to secure it in a Crye Precision TACO pouch. Tactical Tailor works too.
