Just got this new mini-mav to use for 3 gun and square range training.

Still trying to decide how to lay it all out.

My local range has a 3 gun set up now, but it's pretty basic and the rifle targets only go out to 50m. Still better than ringing steel gongs from the bench, I guess.

You can say what you want about airshit, but at least you're actually using it for something.

Most people just have their stuff for a SHTF scenario that might never occur, for you it's actually fulfilling a purpose.

Reposting in new thread.

What do you guys think of a duty belt as a kind of gray-man battle belt? I'm thinking just a normal black duty belt with holster, two pistol mag pouches, a flashlight pouch, and MAYBE an AR mag pouch. Thoughts? Is it too black? Still too stand-outish?

And to the guys who replied;
So are you guys saying that a plain black duty belt will work fine? Or are you saying to just get a battle belt and it can either be covered easy or no one notices them?

Question.
What's a good pack for some serious camping? I'm planning on going out to Big Bend national park in Texas and spending around five to ten days where I have no cell signal, people, or anything like that.

>>30382905
Duty belt would be easier to hide under a light jacket or something, but why grey man?

>>30382956
milsurp or new?

>>30382905
I think it's hard to be gray man when you're carrying in the open.

If you've got the rifle out how is a chest rig to overt?

>>30382984
Milsurp world be preferred, not necessary.

>>30381931
When you remove the antenna off the body of the radio like that you loose 1.5-3dB in signal strength per RF connector, and there's two connectors involved. It's normally done to accommodate a much larger antenna and the connector losses are not a big deal. So it's kind of ridiculous seeing it done with a rubber duck antenna.

>>30382993
Look up the flecktarn 65 L, NE used to have one and I snagged one and it's been great. Only downsize is it isn't waterproof

Your AR build is sexy as hell. Really wish I had the bills to drop on the shockwave blade.

>>30383034
Yeah, would change the color some. I would just get a waterproof cover for it. They're like $10 maybe

I didn't think you were him, but I wanted to explain why it was kind of a bad idea anyway. HT's put out only about 5W so it helps to make every watt count.

I hike with my pack a few miles, a few days a week. I also go backpacking with this pack, usually knock out 20 miles or so in a weekend. I only wear my PC and hump around with my rifle when I'm on family acreage up north. Wish I could hit the trails in full gear without crunchy hikers going nuts.

I like to hike and backpack. Puts all my gear bits to good use, knives, flashlights, mutli-tool, clothing, camelback, backpack, camp gear, etc. But I'm a student right now so shooting is expensive as fuck and I sold most of my guns for the time being. I somehow find money to buy gear shit tho (which I love and hate). But I should be slowing down on acquiring gear now that I have my desired three things (Tan, Green, Poor)


But training? Gym few days a week(3-5, depending on how lazy of a sack of shit i feel like being that week), try to do a full day activity at least one full day on the weekends (backpacking or hiking). Gf is doing a EMR course right now so me and her are doing lots of first aid stuff, helps us both stay sharp. Tacticool and shooting will have to wait for now.

I've been focusing on close quarters defensive pistol use. I use a cheap, but surprisingly accurate plastic toy gun as a rubber duck to practice drawing and firing while being attacked by a buddy.

I hike with my pack and belt, but usually no chest rig or long gun.

Lots of innagym training to keep physicality up.

I read through the 'old SMCT books because I'm a nerd.

>>30384475
Yeah I usually have an issued h harness belt webbing, im not from the usa that's what we are issued here. It's terrible for being in vehicles. I'm just transferring from infantry so want a good setup for the new job I'll be doing.

>>30384554
I only wanted to leave Canuckistan as soon as possible...

>>30384450
im a guardsman infantry, which is similarly funded. i dont know much about cav scouts, but you work mostly as recon for armor groups and combat armor brigades right? that means vehicles. which to me sounds like armor carrier small packs, and light equipment, because you should have a resupply and a support by fire. (your vehicles)

>>30384646
I'm not from the us but yeah here the the cav scouts are either mounted in light vehicles or a part of a dismounted recon unit which I beleive I will start out in until I complete the driver qualifications and depending on what positions are needed to fill I suppose

>>30384643
what is the problem? just get a license

Asking again.

Want a battle belt.
What get?

i managed to break my peltor 6s tacticals. the right ear is all static. i really liked using them especially on live fire because even when i lost visual with my team leader is i could still hear him. if comms didnt matter, what would you recommend for tactical under ach ear pro
budget is $200

i bought the tyr belt and loved in. my inner belt shipped today so im excited to see how it feels.

this velocity systems belt also looks cool. skeletor seems to like his.

the hsgi suregrip is still the golden standard.

>>30384716
We wear armour and helmets on during live firing exercises but most exercises we go without. I think the team leader/section conmander is only issued the radio, that's with infantry anyway. We don't have personal radios to talk amongst the sections

>>30384737
>hsgi suregrip is still the golden standard

Wow, and people actually buy that?

>>30384903
not everyone's a neet :^)

>>30384934
Spoken like a true gear queer.
Meanwhile the rest of us like decent cost/benefit ratios.

>>30384903
There's no reason to get the inner belt if you already own a decent 2" gun belt. I paid 100 CAD for the outer belt only and it must say it's comfy af. Suregrip actually works.

>>30384526
Acquire AR-15

>>30384766
we wear helmets for almost everything. theres a push to get us iotvs, but usually we jus wear flcs and get ibas to slip underneath for live ammo.

team leader (sergeants, incharge of 3 guys, do you have the same set up?) and up have radios.

i was just asking to gauge what you need for your loadout. >>30384934


>>30384903
the pad is what $80? and the inner belt doesnt have to be a cobra belt, but even those max out at $70

so you know, $150 max. not $200.

first spear sells a $115 pad.

and you could always go cheaper. eahle industries belt, $20. ive got one it works fine

a law enforcemnt duty belt with first spear belt keepers for your molle pouches, thats cheap.

using a duty belt as the inner belt for a cheap pad like the shellback tactical warfighter on clearance on tactical assault gear, $60

an alice belt with a blackhawk! alice molle pad.

theres options out there man.

hurr wut body armor vest is dat?????
jk. lbt 6094s before any motherfuckers ask

but as for the kit, either pick one gun as your fighting rifle and build your gear around that, or switch to all taco pouches. switching out your panel everyday seems exhausting. thats my biggest criticism

LA Police Gear Operator Tactical Pants

My absolute favorite cargo/tactical pant. Forget about 5.11, Blackhawk!, etc. I own a few of each, but they just don't compare.

- Have a contoured look unlike most of the the other brands
- many colors to chose from
- lightweight compared to the other brands
- MASSIVE side cargo pockets (I can fit a tablet in mine)
- only cost 25 bones a pair

Some pretty basic gear familiarization stuff is just positional drills. Start with rifle aimed standing, take a knee and aim, drop to prone and aim. Then work your way back up in reverse. You can incorporate squatting or sitting positions if you want.

>>30385792

They're basic 60% Polyester / 40% Cotton rip-stop fabric so nothing special. They seem to dry pretty quickly in my experience after being caught in heavy rainstorms.

Depends on price range, if you are looking lower budget but still all fancy operator you could do UR Tactical. Or CRYE if your rich af. Or just get good hiking/outdoor pants from MEC/REI, cant get any more inna woods companies.

>>30384903

Its possible to cheap out on the inner belt, it will see far less wear being inside the other, I don't know how cheap one might want to go but options exist... like really cheap options.

on your belt. you can put on your fucking belt. crossdraw is a slow draw and chest mounting adds bulk to the exact area you want to keep rather slim.

serpa holsters button release puts your finger in unsafe location, increasing the risk of negligent discharge. and if dirt gets jammed up in there, good luck drawing your weapon.

Mystery Ranch make excellent packs. Pricy, but you won't need to buy another. They are built solid and they make "military" and "civilian" variants. I've got a military 6500 pack. It's been really good to me for living out of. They come in tan, multicam, or you can get older ones used in grey.

Speaking of packs, anyone here checked out the arcteryx khard 60?

I have never gone the poncho route as a coverall. Instead, I use wet weather clothing for myself and a pack cover for the bag. You can get elastic pack covers at any camping store, or get a milsurp one if you wanna be tacticool.

My wet weather clothing is an oversized rain jacket with a hood and an optional early gen military black fleece or waffle top if it is cold enough underneath.

I think this is the better place to post than camo general, but I could be wrong.

I'm looking to get a full set of gear, but I'm unhealthily into aesthetics. Will all green gear (OD probably, but maybe ranger green?) work with any camo? Specifically tiger stripe and flectarn patterns? (two of my favorites) Does anybody have any pictures to this effect?

>>30384961
That's what people who buy shit gear tell themselves

Please recommend me a 7.62x39 AK chest rig or webbing system. Not something wholly ancient and obsolete like old chicom rigs or anything please.

I've really been having trouble pulling the trigger on a D3CR and want to make sure the alternatives are explored.

I just ordered a us palm defender carrier from a overstock sale. Got it for $50! Gonna get some ar500 plates for it, and I'm not sure on pouches. Thinking 2 mag pouches for my 300 blackout, then a small ifak besides that. Would like to find a way to attach one of my fix blades and my beofeng, but I don't want it to be bulky and big.
I live way back innawoods. Been shot at a few times. Long wait for police and medical attention. So I want something I can keep in my jeep incase shtf, which it often does here.
Also want low pro incase I'm out and about in a city and things get sketchy, I can wear it under a large shirt or jacket .

My last answer was kinda shitty

>at home
Familiarize myself with my kit.
Knowing where and what is in my rig and how to retrieve in the dark without making a huge mess.

I sometimes wear my Chicom and just practice taking out mags while browsing 4chan or watching a movie.
Building the muscle memory on how to work the toggle: left-hand, right-hand, gloved, ungloved.
So much so, I become fluid and comfortable working in it.


Take my rifle
rest the buttstock to my bicep
Focus on a target and bringing my gun to what I'm focusing on

Dryfire drills.

Hello /gq/
Are Gorkas any good?
I live in Texas so it's mainly hot for most of the year.
Any suggestions on vests/plate carriers?
I shoot, but don't own any gear, and want to be ready for any situation that would require me to gear up.

are those 33rd 9mm mags? If so, what pouches are those?

>>30390407

>>30393077
I am in South Ga don't buy a Gorka, it is comfy and sexy but you won't use it enough to justify it.

>>30393077
Okie here

Gorkas are just heavy windproof suits
They're only good for below 60*F windy weather anything above that you're better off wearing something more lightweight.

How much of a comfy prone do you want?
Very comfy, Then look at single mag pouches and don't put extra crap on the front of your vest.

I meant the rear molle space when I was talking about this.

>>30395237
I mean, I have the stt and for a while, I bitched about it 24/7.
Tubes means no Velcro hat
Tubes means consistent side plate placement hat
Tubes means a fast don/soft yay

With ar15s, I've had zero issues shouldering my weapon. The m1 garand is the only thing I've shouldered that's given me grief

The side tubes means less molle estate. Which kinda sucks.

All in all, I think it's a neat idea and decent enough system.

Sorry in advance for flipped images. The inner belt for the gunfighter came in today, and goddamn it is awesome.

I did a few shuttle sprints with it on just now and this system really holds the weight well. Sure it's just an ifak and 2 loaded ar15 mags, but in confident it'll handle a pistol like a champ.

The inner belt is very stiff and is reversible so you could use it like a regular gun belt for edc, ill make sure it can handle the weight of say a glock 19.

All in all, in really happy with my battle belt choice.

>>30392666
Hmm... interesting, not sure if I can tell from this pic. Can you post more? Put on a holster or something, for reference.

I've been looking around for a plate carrier. Problem is that a lot are in the $200-300 range.

I really like the Condor MOPC but I've been advised not to go for that brand. Is there another PC with a front panel and cummerband, preferably with a chest velcro area, in the <$120 range?

>>30399680
Not of any real quality. You get what you pay for, and I think that you'll appreciate saving up a bit and getting something good down the road.

Any one know of a place that sells goretex scraps ?

I like the poncho over plate carrier idea but I'm too Jew to pay 100 for a square piece of goretex with a head hole cut out

>>30399680
Why are you even buying a PC if you can't spring the money for Good ceramic plates?

Save your shekels and buy something worth a shit.

>>30399719
I have no problem with going above my low budget, I just don't want to be spending hundreds on something I will never use for its designed purpose.

>>30399936
My budget is low, but that doesn't mean I have no money. In fact, the opposite is true because I'm not pissing money on whims. I just don't want to waste money when I can buy a similar or slightly less preferable product for $50 cheaper

AWS OCPC

http://www.awsin.com/proddetail.asp?prod=52813

-Made here in Muricuh by a proven manufacturer
-Basically stitch for stitch the same as an LBT 6094, which is a proven carrier in use by SOF worldwide
-Uses heavier 1000 denier outer fabric instead of less durable 500 denier that LBT uses
- Same day shipping
- Size medium will fit 10x12 ar500/ceramic plates
- 150 Bones for the OCPC instead of 400 for the 6094

Why buy some dumpy looking vest when you can instead buy something that's high speed?

>>30400253

That's the way it's mostly done, anon.

Quite a few people rubber band them to their vest for quick access in case of a situation that would require it. You would not want to be suffering massive blood loss only to have to fumble >>30400177
around trying to take your tourniquet out of the package.

>>30400168
I put one tourniquet on the chest of my IOTV, other on my IFAK. If I'm on my back I don't want private fuckhole wasting time trying to find it.

>>30400006
I mean I get that, really. No sense in spending $800 for a tyr pico epic platw carrier. But if they stil have $200 lbt 6094s, id jump on that.
The banshee is still $180
The new patriot pc has that fromt velcro but the front flap is 5 wide instead of 6 wide. Some shingle pouches like the usgi 3 ma pouch actually only use 5 molle collumns, so thats what i think they had in mind. There's always ebay for a eagle industries pc

>>30400075
Im really happy with my usgi shirt. Its in multicam, but found it on ebay for $30

Theres also the british combat shirts for $35 on NE.

>>30400081
Never heard of this. Budget guy, do it. I was the STT guenia pig, so now it's your turn.

>>30400168
Most designs will weaken from exposure over time. I wouldn't.

I only have two working tourniquets right now, but i do one in each arm pocket, one in my ifak, and i want to buy a little tourniquet pouch for a fourth. And buy like 6 more tqs.

>>30400330
>>30400358
ok thanks. best way to attach it?

>>30400399
hot glue. it's strong enough to hold it on, but will easily tear away.

>>30400399
Rubber bands, or a TQ pouch that's marked.

You're supposed to carry them out of the plastic, already looped, and ready for use.

If you're military, it's very common to put them in shoulder and/or leg pockets. About the only thing those ankle pockets are good for.

>>30400397
AWS is a known quantity, they have been making small runs for SF types for a while, and there were some contract overruns for sterile clones of MR packs and the mayflower blowout kit on their website. I believe they are the OEM for the Ronin Tactics belts and the Ronin Tactics plate carrier as well.

>>30400399
Well in the Army you're issued two tourniquets in quick-release pouches. You pull on a loop and it unbuttons right there. It can be attached like normal PALS shit, or horizontally with velcro bands. Vertical it covers 3 ladders, horizontal it covers 4

>>30400006
>I just don't want to waste money when I can buy a similar or slightly less preferable product for $50 cheaper
I know it's anecdotal, and YMMV but I've cheaped out on shit before only for it to bite me on the ass and I end up having to buy another higher quality one.

>>30400397
British combat shirts are comfy af. Even with the pads in it keeps me cool.

>Let's do more than just post our gear and shopping carts. Let's discuss uses and situations for our gear and even drills and tactics. I'm interested in how everyone trains with their gear.

I have literally no reason to have this shit, but I like it anyway. The big vest I originally put together for airshit, which I don't do anymore. It still works for me, but I prefer the belt for range days. Vest is waiting for the day China invades or some shit.

Should I get some armor or an optic for my carbine first? making a little bit of money this summer and I plan to set aside enough for one or the other before I go back to school.

I'd like to get Some IIIa armor and a slick carrier. I don't intent to get in a gunfight so I want something slick for wearing under a coat or loose shirt in the event of unrest, or over a shirt and under a chest rig if I really expect to see a gunfight.

Looking at an RDS for my carbine, too.

Would really help the medfag (or you) to get the pouch off and start to get to patching you up.

Having to roll someone over to get their IFAK off ain't optimal.

Why variable?

My gun has a 16" barrel and I'm not too good at long range shooting. It is first and foremost a home defense gun.

>>30401944

because then you have magnification options...

Duty belt, now with 50% more ammo. Dropped the expanding baton and added another double mag pouch and an Eagle patrol bandoleer.

The book is Street Survival by Charles Remsberg, part of a 3-volume set from the 80's. Very old-school, no-nonsense police tactics. the books were originally LE-only but can now be found on Amazon or Ebay from time to time.

I was a deputy constable for a few years. Around here that places one slightly above being a security guard.

>>30402544

I kind of wish I could do something like that.

>>30402574

You probably can, a Constable just serves warrants or stands around at public events, it can be hazardous but it doesn't require much actual work. Or you could get a job with Securitas or something, seems like half of /k/ has done that.
