I have a mich2000 but I really want to get a comm cut, so idk might consider selling it. But im like fuck its a nice problem to have a helmet laying around

Thinking of ditching my ruck sack for an osprey day hiking pack as my camping/shtf/innawoods bag. The ruck is good for my longer adventures, but Im moving toward the low profile, less is more mentality.

Okay, so im thinking of getting the Gamma MX Hoody as my first arcteryx piece. Im looking for something that i can use year round. (I live in New England, so during the fall/spring at night you still need a light jacket or sweatshirt, basically 70% of the year.

Is this a good choice? I really want the Beta AR, but its hard to dish out $600 for my first one. Not to mention theres no stores around me to try anything on, so its all a crap shoot.

>>32979151
The only people here who buy arcteryx are skeletor and garand thumb. The rest of us dont have $600 for a hoody.

Is this any good?

Literally what are you implying?

>>32979543
what are you "assaulting" faggot? Literally no one does that. People who actually assault
things wear rear plates in their armor. Its also a flawed concept because you can't garuntee no one will be behind you and when you are in the fucking objective you are assaulting people can be behind you. shrapnel from explosions and shit can come from behind you

The reality is if you ever need your armor you are going to be in a dynamic environment and you are better off with rear plates. And as a civilian you are even more likely to need it because you have no one watching your back and you will be in an urban center.

also "patrolling" in plates as a civilian is stupid. either wear the armor or dont. you aren't saving anything by taking 4lbs off your back and unbalancing your vest

>>32979570

I would *strongly recommend* that you store the pouches without mags in them to allow the elastic to return to a sort of resting state. Otherwise, if you feel comfortable investing the time, I recommend placing some cloth over the front of the pouches to act as a barrier to protect from physical wear and tear from other equipment scuffing around.

But that's just me, I'm a cheap-o gear-o queer-o

Alright so I think I have ideas for my belt setup nailed down. I am looking to get an AWS belt then putting an esstac KYWI double AR mag pouch and double pistol mag pouch on it. That should set me up pretty well for 2gun since I already have a holster setup. I can work on an IFAK once I have everything else setup to my liking. Thoughts/critiques on this plan?

Old pic, feel free to R8 and H8.

This is changing, after trying all different configurations I can safely say I hate battle belts. I'm done with them, I'm moving things from the belt to either my pack or PC. I'm tired of them sliding, moving, falling down, too tight, too loose, interfering with my PC, interfering with my pack, not letting me bend. I'm going back to a PC, a pack and a common pistol belt with holster. Anyone else have similar frustrations?

>>32980888
our frustrations were answered by the ronin/tyrtactical/aws belts

>>32980888
also if im you, i move the radio to the belt or PC

>>32980888
You've got too much shit. The ifak, to me, is way too fucking big for a belt. If it has to be that big, at least make it a horizontal one. Your pistol looks awfully high as well. And I would go with one less rifle mag on the belt.

>>32980888

I keep the radio on the pack as I take it hiking and like to have a radio with me just in case.

>>32980964
Agreed my shit is too busy, I think the rifle mag pouch is going onto the back of the pack. The pistol is high as I haven't found a drop panel that will attack to the STRIKE panel and holster properly, I may need to just get some kydex and make it. I do need a smaller IFAK, I like the way this one opens but it takes up too much space and sticks out too far.

>>32982658
I've never tactically acquired anything myself, but I do have an ACH, an Iraqi M90 used by the Republican Guard, and a 6B28 (though that's still held up in Russian customs).

The Airframe usually is on back order (anywhere from 4 months to 4 weeks from what I hear) but OPTactical has them in their live inventory with pre-drilled mount holes and rails attached for about 10 less than then Airframe straight from Crye w/o any holes or rails (after you input their 5% off year round code).

Brushstroke camouflage is overrated by people who associate it with Rhodesia. Original British brush stroke smocks (you know, the ones that were actually hand painted) were cool as fuck, but brush stroke as a printed pattern is pretty meh.

Also, you're the milshit west guy who couldn't go to Grozny, right? Are you going to Balkar Ridge?

I only bought the Airframe so I could use it with NODs, which is my next purcahse (probably 2-3 months down the road).

Honestly, I'm thinking either the ARX or the AK74.

I mean, they're just now "replacing" the former mexican marine pattern (pic related) with this stuff, so I'm pretty happy with it. They're made in the US, even though it's a pattern from a canuck licensed to the mexicans. Fingers crossed they're good quality.

how comfy is that? carrier looks like a S.E.T RPC btw, a very nice

>>32983709
I prefer non-elastic. I'm a small guy anyway, so most cumberbunds end up making a carrier floppy. I prefer tighter, on the fly adjustments. I think it's mostly a body type thing.

So building your own can be nice because you can get exactly what you want, but it'll cost more since you have to buy more pouches, pre builts are nice cause you don't have to fuck with much besides IFAK and maybe a GP or dump pouch, but they may not suit your needs. For AKs specifically I'd look at Russian gear. Do you want all 6 on your chest?
>>32984583
Nope, that's militia

>>32984636
Yeah that's what i figured. I do like how some pre built russian gear has a pouch on the back that I could throw an mre or some other stuff in.

Interesting good to know though since I have a gunfighter on the way. I want to get a GCODE but they dont offer my pistol.

Also more information on my ArcTeryx buy. Went to a store today and they had ONE ArcTeryx jacket. Figured out I need an XS. Unfortunately they dont offer many options in XS.

My two current picks are

Beta AR

Proton AR

Im just looking for something that is all around 4 seasons jacket. I lean Beta because it is goretex but we will see.

If you're too dumb to figure out how to put canteens on a belt you aren't ready. For life.

>>32985327
Well, I can't see where it says "1.75" type 13 webbing, just type 13 webbing. And it's says diameter is 2inhes with 2 inch cobra buckle like that's two things.
as for inner belt, there's a lip around the velcro,and it might account for the extra quarter inch. a 1.75 belt fits inside the pants anyways.

Forgot to mention also, that I read on lightfighter people having the issue of the holster being slightly too big for their belt, it was fixed by placing the holster on the belt, and where the empty space is (.25") Using a few zip ties pulled all the way tight, to fill the space.

So if you cant find a 1.75 replacement you can fix that a shot I suppose, but Ill look around for a 1.75.

>>32985484
Just saw this. http://www.tyrtactical.com/products/details/gunfighter-belts/limited-time-offer-gunfighter-belt-kit/ Go down to "The TYR Tactical® Gunfighter Belt-E" Description. Thats where I found it.


Also after a lot of debate Im thinking im going to go with the Proton LT Hoody in Grey. Literally "grey man effect". I am an outdoorsman/hiker first, and a prepper/SHTF dreamer second. So im trying to keep all my stuff non tactical besides my belt, weapons, and maybe a helmet.

Also I checked out some OSPREY packs today, and was plesently suprised how amazing they felt. Such an impressive line up, especially since ive been using .mil packs my whole life. I figure less Ill lose some space, but they are so impressive.

>>32986669
yeah, that'd be kinda weird.

>>32986669
well... what would you put on them

>>32986669
Heres the thing. .mil guys dont wear their dog tags, except for in bootcamp, during war time (Required to one around neck in some units), and during inspections, For example, my old unit we had them on our left boot.

But no one wears them around their necks like around town, or ever basically, unless your super POG, or right outa boot camp.
So you will look poser as fuck, becuase when I saw mil guys out in town (boots) who had it on their neck they look poser as fuck and hell they are in the military.

If you really wnt them, thats fine, just dont wear them around your neck. I use one of my old ones as a key tag. Also dont put any gay shit on there like weird stupid passages. You know what im talking about.

>>32985522
why is that guy only selling one MSAP plate? what happened to the other one

>>32986993
my philosophy is simple: headlamp is either on your head/neck or in a dedicated spot in your pack, either a pouch or just on the very top of everything. I kinda coil/zigzag the strap it neatly but nothing besides that

>>32986790
I wear my tags on my neck in uniform, some guys will tie them to their belt loop at stuff it in their pocket.

>>32987085
Ugh, I lost the bid on the 2 MSAP plates......oh well. The listing with the one MSAP plate? Maybe he had one just for a groin armor pocket.

>>32986790
Former airborne here. Can confirm.

In most jump-status units you're not allowed to wear them around your neck except for inspections. Most people will have them looped on a belt loop and stuffed in a back pocket, or just dropped down the inside of their pants depending on job. I caught the beginning of a resurgence in them being an "inspectable item" along with green boot socks (literally wtf, I got issued black and this weird brown color for boot socks, no I'm not going out and dropping another $100 on fucking socks because the real-deal shit you gave me is somehow the wrong color), a notebook, and a black-ink pen. Which was bullshit, I sweated the notebook to death the first day and the pen pockets on your sleeve were worthless (either jab you in the elbow/back of your hand or get snagged out by your seatbelt).

so if you guys want to shoot blanks, practice land nav, fire and manuever, and radio skills, there's a msw event in Virginia in may. I'm 86% sure my ass is going to be there. should be a lot more interesting and applicable to gear queer because the focus should shift to squad level tactics due to the large rural enviorment.

>>32987835
How does it work with blanks? point, click and they "die"?

>>32987835
How much does It cost you usually to go to one event? I know tickets are like 150 but all in all what's the bottom dollar you usually end paying for everything

>>32987901

considering I'd have to buy airshit guns, blanks/bfa sounds cheaper, but i'm skeptical

>>32987927

exactly. so resign myself to buying $300+ in airshit??

>>32987942
The way I understand it is that BFAs are just for muh immersion and no one NEEDS to actually go down when shot at, but they should still react as if being fired upon.

>>32987985
then whats the point in even engaging? Why dont I stand 600m out and just start shooting and say "I have an acog so I am area effect shooting, they all just got sniped" ?

$175 for a not early ticket (first two weeks of tickets being out is $150)
$200 for 500 blanks (about)
$15 hollywood bfa
$20 for 3 mres (approx more than enough food for 40 hour op)
gun, food, uniform is really all you have to get, but
$9 per pea grenade (sim frsg)
$10 per smoke
$80-$120 for airshit pistol (you'll want someform of airshit with blank fire for cqb because minimum engagement)

so it gets expensive fucking quick
(seeing as cyma aks are $180 and bbs are provided by msw, airsoft is actually cheaper) if you can get an airshit for under $300, you're saving on blank ammo and airsoft secondary.

>>32987927
>>32987972
>>32988021
>>32988035
buying an airshit primary will be cheaper than using blanks. It will be more effective if you want kills. But it's really fun to be making tons of noise shooting a real gun. whats more, you improve everyone else's exeperience because gunshots really do help with the immersion.

>>32988516
damn, Im actually trying go nato in may. it depends on my tax return desu

>>32988538
this. you're paying extra money to improve everyone else's game and look cool as fuck. that being said, there are a lot of skills you can work on with blanks. Reloads under stress, taking cover, proper movement, being safe, etc

>>32988659
If a HATO squad could get together in May that'd be noce. We could request to wear any nato camo we wanted.

>>32988932
thing is we have to rep that country.
getting foreign gear can be a pain in the dick. good not ar and not ak replicas get pricey quick. Im going as a standard us force to keep costs down

>>32989011
Any US camo as well. Woodland, MARPAT, Nwu, etc

>>32983465
That's likely what I'll do. If I do that, get the 10" barrel and a SOCOM mini it'll be a really fun shitposting and hog hunting gun.

>>32988516
So are you going to Balkar Ridge? Blue and I are looking into going as NATO in May and the more the merrier because there's also going to be a /k/ gruppa squad on RUSFOR that we can shitpost.

>>32988932
I just wish we could find proof of any SFs wearing Multicam Tropic so that we could go wearing that; the environment is optimal for it but nobody uses it which means we have to use regular Multicam.

>>32989157
Good; Multimeme is best meme. We also have to show up those RUSFOR faggots because their squad lead is insistent that Multicam is a shit camouflage and that digiflora, regular flora, and even mountain flora are far superior.

>>32989278
nah, I used an airsoft gun. I was rusfor, I couldnt afford an ak. Im seriously considering doing airsoft again

>>32988625
I respect the idea of mil sim west. Since it appears to be more of 'larp' and 'simulation' than some backyard bb shit. Unfortunately Im hard pressed to justify $500 to essentially go on a field op. I totally see how it could be fun, and mostly to people who never had a .mil experience. And I assuming they try their best to make it fun, and not too realistic to .mil field ops, because theres no way im going to pay $500 for that haha.

just got an email about the rhodie camo

>>32990995
How much did you pay for said camo?

>>32991030
it's been a while since I ordered, but I think I got fatigue tops and bottoms, a boonie, and a quarter zip sweater thing for like $200-$250

It might be more expensive than some other stuff you can get, but I thought it'd be fun to be a part of the project and support a /k/ommando

>>32979543
>anon assaults a position
>firing at enemy from behind cover
>some dude who was out taking a piss comes up from behind
>shoots anon in the back
>it's ogre

>>32991059
Not bad. Im on the fence on buying my first ArcTeryx piece. I want it so bad but its so hard to dish out much monies.

Then again I decided to give up on the camo game and just get into outdoorsman type wear.

>>32991083
Yeah, this will probably be my only set of camo. I'd mostly only wear the boonie or quarter zip jacket thing while innawoods, maybe wear the fatigues to a /k/ meetup

>>32991114
Yeah im a firm believer in transitioning to more of a matte civ color patterns than camo. Unless you really need some type of combat oriented uniform, or you have a significant amount of money to blow, its hard to justify.

I prefer wearing my Prana Brion Pants, and Normal Outdoors tops. When I buy them I just try to get muted colors (Dark navy blue, Grey, Black, Tan, Khaki, Green, etc).

That way they can double as normal outdoors wear and can be used also with my shooting/gear queer shit

>>32990821
it comes down to "do you already have the stuff. but your first one will cost close to $600

Got a reply back from CAF recruiting. Lord help me.

Also I emailed OTG about a custom Noctornial Sidewinder, and they said they would make it happen.
Total badass customer service.

Blucarpet, do you think that this holster will work fine with the TyrTactical belt? My belt isnt made yet, but I wanna order this OTG holster while I can, since its custom made.

>>32992085
>3k

How? You using FASFA or something? I'm getting 1.5k just from GI Bill which is bretty nice, but doubling that would be cool,

>>32992106
I am using FAFSA but its just cause my school BAH is high as fuck, idk why but ill take it.

>>32992125
Aight. I just got a 2k+ BAH (not including book money). I just did the shifty eye thing and pocketed it even though it seems high. I figure like a 75% chance the VA will eventually catch it. But if not...

Quick, a radio that isn't the recommended one, because that one requires some sort of shitty license in Australia. I'm gonna do the S.T.A.L.K.E.R challenge with a friend and we need a way to stay in contact.

Does it require a license to buy or license to broadcast? Technically Baofengs require a license to broadcast in the US, but nobody follows that rule since it's fucking stupid.

Hows the sizing on Crye Precision combat pants?

When I was enlisted I wore a size 28. Are they true to size? Should I go up to a 29 for waste adjustment for my gains at the gym?

>>32994359
you should measure this yourself, cyre has a guide on their site. pants run short.

Someone told me I could find someone here by the name of "gear hitler". Is this right or a joke?

>>32995540
Fuck. That's pretty cool. I need this to go with my collection of cucktarn.

>>32990821
it is a more "simmy" experience but it's definitely not that realistic. right now one of the HATO marine groups is salty cause many of their members have no fucking idea what fire and maneuver is and last event someone literally fell the fuck asleep during a 5 minute security halt on the first night of the game.

>>32996182
lol are they like bitching over a forum or something? Where I can see them get mad?

i wonder how much immursion they want, just start hazing new guys for falling asleep and shit haha

>>32996229
they have a fb group

one of their cadre guys is a former 75th ranger so i can see how it would be disappointing to be stuck with a bunch of guys who have no idea how to pull security when halted or how to bound by fireteams

>>32996266
Whats it called? And yeah I get that, but I mean if your a .mil guy you gotta expect that shit. Thats exactly why I wouldn't go. Also I wouldnt want to pay money to have a real experience, that shit sucked.

On one side I can see where the immursion would be good, and how it must be frustrating to the guys who are mil, but on the other side, you cant start blasting/hazing a bunch of guys who paid hundreds of dollars to be there.

I mean you can, and I probably would. But.. thats not the greatest business model. Unless they provided some type of training or reading beforehand to get them up to speed on what like a security halt even is, its hard to get random civis to be good with that type of shit right off the bat

What are good news letters to sign up for?

>>32996312
i think it's called the blue diamond general interest group or something

there's a lot of random shitposting as well, you're gonna have to scroll down a little to read the salt

>>32994359
>>32995046
This

Use Crye's sizing charts. But their wastes come 2" intervals. I wear a 34", so I bought a 34" waste. Though I had to adjust it with the really neat tabs on the back sides of the pants but it looks like because of the way they adjust that you could be a 34" waste, buy a 32 or even 30" waste and be fine. Obviously don't do that, but the "waste size" you buy isn't the max waste size, it looks like it's the "average" or "minimal adjustments" size and the pants can size down up to like 4 or 5 inches.

For pant length kinda the same thing since the knees are adjustable, but follow their sizing chart to the T for inseam (pant length) otherwise your shin section will be way too short or long even if you can get the thigh section right with the internal adjustments.

Does anyone know of another brand besides GCode that makes magazine holsters like this?

Looking for a single stack glock one.

>>32996697
Just look for "Belt Glock Mag Kydex Holster"

Safariland makes some really good ones, those are the only one's I have experience with.
Otherwise just about every company makes Kydex stuff, so just buy from what looks like a decent company.

Yeah im specifically looking for one like that (duel, with angle), i know a ton of great other companies are out there, thanks for the help tho

Hey where is it that all you guys buy your armor from, is it Hesco? I have a friend that is asking and it's been so long since I've bought plates I forgot what the site was called.

Anyone want to buy a fobus paddle holster for a glock 19 for $20 shipped?

I'm not a gear queen....
...but if I were, I'd have a rig with a pistol holster across the chest. Does that exist?

>>32997677
No... just.. no...

>>32997677
Uh like a plate carrier with a chest mounted pistol?

>>32997677
Yes it does exist.

Looks like a cool costume. Would be even cooler if it was 3A all the way around. Is it just supposed to be padding?

I've got two pairs of Mechanix gloves incoming. One woodland fastfit to match my cap, and the other one of their work gloves.

It's all a costume. Anyone who claims otherwise is deluded and autistic.

It just looks like a cool piece.

Yeah, I grabbed two more pairs of their 4x fastfit gloves. They're too cheap to pass up. Don't know why I need a total of 4 pairs of fast fit gloves, but whatever.

>tfw only two hands

hey guys, I crunched some numbers. I lied. Blanks are cheaper to run at msw if you don't account secondary, and even then, maybe.

500 LAM blanks + hollywood style bfa will run you close to $160. You will not get a airsoft gun, battery, charger, and mags worth a damn for $160.

the secondary airsoft pistol is still up in the air, I'm researching now for something kinda cheap that if you wanted to run blanks would let you engage within 20ft

>>32978996
>tfw you want a boonie but have an enormous melon head

Lots of guys say tactical gear will make you a target in a SHTF scenario, but I have a different take -- wouldn't be decked out in tactical gear provide a boost to your morale in addition to the utility benefits?

It seems to me that morale would be critically important in SHTF.

>>32998652
>I need to look like I belong in COD to make myself feel better
Okay

>>32998652
it's all just LARPing anyway. Anyone who gets kitted up like the fags in this thread that isn't in law enforcement or the military is just an autist.

With that said, it's fun.

Just finished my non-urgent medkit.
Not sure what tacticool terminology to use, but I'd be able to call it a "72hr personal medkit" pretty easily, as in everything in this kit should be able to last 72 hours, if not longer.
Pouch is Maxpedition Micro Pocket Organiser, with a ITW Grimloc carabiner to hold the tape (which wouldn't fit inside).

My urgent medkit (basically an IFAK) will contain a 6" Israeli bandage, two packs of S-folded gauze, a 4" ACE bandage, and a CAT tourniquet.

>>32998941
>>32998929

Breddy nice.

I've thought about doing this but including a swatt tourniqet, an Israeli bandage, and gauze, maybe more. Just to have back up for my back ups back up.

>>32999047
The reason I'm having two separate kits is so the super urgent items (Israeli bandage, tourniquet, ACE bandage in the event of a snake bite, etc) are separate to the non-urgent items (lmao Band-aids), which means less sorting through clutter in an emergency
Putting everything in the one kit also means you can't keep your IFAK on you at all times without also bringing the non-ugent gear and vice-versa

>>32999023
Just a suggestion for your ifak, you should have a chest seal or two. You can go cheap and get petroleum gauze and use the packaging as chest seals.

>>32999077
I was thinking of that, but you can just use the plastic packaging from the Israeli bandage with some tape to make one, which saves space and weight, and money.

>>32999076
I'm sorry, I should have been more specific. I have an ifak with all real emergency shit. But in creating a non emergency kit like above, I would also include some emergency stuff as well, because I see no reason not to include a swatt tourniqet(super compact), gauze and maybe an Israeli bandage.

>>32999093
Very true, I see the logic.

>>32999110
But also, I'd rather have a vented chest seal since I've never been trained on decomp needle and wouldn't want to without training.

>>32999102
Ah I see.
I just figure I'll usually have both on me, but always will have my IFAK on me.
Also the negative to putting more things in your non-urgent kits means you'll need a bigger pouch/box to put it all in, which takes up more space in your pack/rig.
I got this pouch because it was compact and only had room for what I needed and nothing else.

>>32999142
Good thing about maxpedition is they have tons of pouchs like that and size up in small increments, so adding a couple items doesn't require you to double the size of the pouch. A swatt and a pack of z fold gauze is very small. Granted an Israeli bandage isn't.

>>32999327
Yeah, you could probably fit what you're suggesting in the EDC pouch
