> what part of that is confusing?

It's confusing because here you said "you want multicurve and *swimmers* cut at the same time"
>>33451603

I said "I don't see multicurve *swimmers* cut on highcom" and you linked and showed a picture of multicurve shooters cut - not swimmers cut.

tl:dr - It seems like you said to look for multicurve *swimmers* cut, and linked and screencapped multicurve *shooters* cut

>>33451918
>>33451934
Sorry Anon,
I should have clarified. Lots of people use shooters cut and swimmers cut interchangeably because they are the exact same thing. My eyes just glossed over it.

>>33451948
No problem, I appreciate the help and it's late. Hey, at least you're not a smelly Frenchman.

You need a shooters/swimmers cut multicurve for the front.
You can get by with a multicurve squarecut in the rear.

It comes down to who is making the plate. The whole plate industry is "look at my standards". NIJ is about the only standard followed (exception being ar500)

Is a large MSA ACH for fat people's heads? Or will the cushioning inside the helmet fit someone with a medium-large head?

I really don't know head sizes, and I haven't measured my head due to me not trimming my hair.

Here is my MAGA hat with the snap in the size that fits my head with no wiggle room.

>shooters cut and swimmers cut interchangeably because they are the exact same thing

I was wanting to debate you on this, but I realized that manufactures and retailers are starting to blend the terms together nowadays.

To the other anon:

Swimmer cut generally meant a very aggressive angular cut to the plate to allow for maximum arm movement. These plates were generally more expensive as they were not produced in volumes compared to shooter cut plates (you used to only see these as military surplus/special order plates). These plates are starting to become more common.


Shooter cut meant an angular cut that was less aggressive than the swimmer cut but still allowed for decent arm movement. Plates in this cut are much more common than swimmer cut plates.

>>33452192
I appreciate the thorough reply.

So to both of you - Highcom seems to check out based on my googlefu and the paste-bin. My correct size would be "L" by sapi standards.

In your opinions, will this be a good ceramic front plate to start with - https://highcomsecurity.com/collections/products/products/guardian-4sas-7?variant=361422133

(in 10x12 multicurve shooters cut) Then adding a L SAPI cut for the back plate?

I would caution you about L sized plates. Unless you are the gigganigga who can only be stopped by quads, you will probably want mediums.

Ask WhatGripWhatStock about his experience with large sapis. He may even have some to sell you.

Honestly looking at dimensions and maybe or maybe not holding a cardboard cutout of these plates on my chest...are you really able to tuck/shoulder the rifle with *any* cut? Seems like it would always be up against the plate. I bring my stocks in pretty far.

is there any legality issues for any states with selling IV ceramics online & shipping them? I know some dumbfuck sites require drivers license and background check proof or something, but I think that's just them covering their ass?

>>33452140
Sorry to be such a bother, but if anyone could just answer this, that'd be great. Does anyone have personal experience with combat helmet sizing? I posted that MAGA hat for size reference, would that notch in the hat be about the size of a large head? Or do I have a tiny cranium.

>>33452436
No, other than felons not being allowed to buy/possess them. Its all cover your ass mode.

>>33452442
Measure your head man, don't buy a 400 helmet based on MAGA hat sizing. Get a tailor measuring tape and wrap that shit around your grape. If you don't have the tape and are to autistic to walk into the nearest hobby store, take a normal ruler and a of string, mark on the string with sharpie where marks should be, and use that.

You'll have to google it for that specific helmet, google head circumference to hat size and get your hat size, then figure out what helmet it is and google information about it and what hat size they recommend to what size helmet

>>33452590
Da. I'm just trying to dump off a lot of stuff and recoup some $. Selling a few guns and just keeping what I enjoy shooting. Already got rid of the battle belt and like half my guns. I don't mind buying & selling even if I lose a bit of $ doing it.

I'm getting into long range more and just want to have a basic 3-gun/uspsa setup. life is starting to happen (in a good way).

if you don't mind, if you know of anyone that wants IV ceramics and 3a cummerbunds in a mayflower (coyote/fde), that's what I was looking at getting rid of.

What do you fags think of the chest rigs offered by Haley Strategic? I'm not looking at them with any serious interest but in the future I will probably want one to complement my battle belt. May also get a PC. Not sure yet.

>>33453050
Vastly overrated. Double stacked pouches are something you definitely want to avoid when going down on the ground, and a completely sewn on setup means it is either 100% perfect for you, or then less than perfect with no means of rectifying the issues.

Mostly fawned over by people with more money than competence, who just wish to get whatever is cool, without actually stopping to consider their own requirements.

Get a modular MOLLE rig and slap on whatever you want on it, and make your own perfect rig, instead of something that just will make do.

Well not everyone on 4chan is untrained. Would I use it on someone I had no idea of their medical history? Probably not unless Ive exhausted every other method. But if im bleeding out, id much rather someone use it on me, than bleed out and die. I mean its not really a debate as far as their effectiveness, you can debate the application, and when it should be applied, but like I said not everyone is untrained, so I would'nt be that tripped out about it.

>>33454490
>Not everyone is untrained
What level of training makes somebody comfortable applying a highly invasive measure like that for first aid in a field situation? Especially when first aid is all designed as time buying measures to hand off to longer term dedicated care? Seems like a tacticool thing to carry to be honest. Not as bad as tactical tampons, but still makes my noodle roodle.

>>33453071

They're overpriced for sure, but I've never had one fail in a class when other participants had. They're not the best for the money, but they are lightweight and seem to be durable enough for moderate use. I've had a D3CRH for a couple years worth of classes every few months and I can't find any signs of wear and the material is nice and light.

Just don't fall for those plastic inserts, they don't work for shit. His slings are also apparently garbage that falls apart.

>>33454520
Theres plenty of EMT's and RN's here. Furthermore I trust anyone who's had TCCC (+) level of training, to apply it on me. Again, its a last ditch effort to save someones life. Anyone with that level of training would be able to review the situation and make the call. If your in a parking lot and an ambulance is 2 minutes away, that's a hell of lot different than if your in the middle of the mojave desert, with no cell phone service and the nearest hospital is an hour away.


I do NOT condone anyone using ANY medical equipment for tacticool purposes, or without proper training.

>>33454553
>TCCC
Pretty sure they don't teach hemostats in TCCC. The only invasive stuff is NPAs and decompression needles.

Are you thinking of CLS? Im not sure what class you took. I suppose every teacher may be different, I'm not sure why your instructor would go over how to use a needle decom. but not use combat guaze? Either way, In all my TCCC courses I have been taught the differences, risks, etc. Not to mention a needle decompression is FAR more intrusive and risky than hemostatic gauze. For the record, I agree with you that there is a portion of people out there who just carry that shit for tacticool purposes, and thats totally irresponsible.

Don't forget packing junctional wounds. Too many dudes don't practice packing and securing the gauze.

NCDs are hot shit to learn but the onset of tension pneumothorax isn't instant, in a developed area the amberlamps will probably arrive before tension pneumothorax develops (depending on how soon you begin treatment.

Honestly for most joes on the range if you can stop bleeding and seal chest wounds you're set.

>Gauze is too invasive!
I can see why you thought it was crazy. Anyway, hemostat tweezers in individual medical kits still trips me the fuck out.

>>33454618
>Decomp needles.
My thoughts as well. I semi-cringe when I see decompression needles in kits because I never know how much training the person on the posting end has. Even a lot of ex-military I wouldn't trust to do it right. For every competent guy, there are probably a dozen packing them because tacticool.

Agree with tension phemothorax development. A sealed wound might develop a deadly case in 45 minutes, but if the amberlance is 20 minutes away, I don't want some dude playing SF medic and trying to stab people needlessly.

This always develops into a huge internet debate because you've got the guys prepping for a Nut'N'Fancy style SHTF where there are no doctors left and they hyptothetically NEED to push that needle in. In which case, I wonder what their long term care plan is after applying FIRST aid.

Are these chest seals g2g for an ifak? They look like they'd be easier to squeeze into a smaller ifak since they appear to be foldable.

On the same token, are the HALO seals foldable or will it ruin them?

>>33454648
They look tiny. Just get normal sized Hyfins, which are BAMF. You can bend them also long as they don't devlop a crease in your kit.

>>33454648
Skinny Medic likes them (to the best of my knowledge)

>>33454657
I was thinking of getting some for something a similar size of an HSGI bleeder kit to try and save a little space/weight. Right now I'm using one of the huge...condor...med pouches. Is that feasible or are those bleeder kits too small for seals you think?

>>33454666
Id say its not feasible just on the fact that its a condor pouch.

>>33454648
I pack Halos in my aidbag, IFAK and medical pouch. I prefer them over hyfins and they come with a plastic insert inside that can be used as improvised seals in a pinch.

You can fold them without issues.

H&H occlusive dressings are also good stuff even comes with wipes to wipe off fluids near the wound before application of the seal.

The new IOTV (gen 3) is actually pretty good, so long as you get a good size. It also has a buckle quick-release instead of the cable, and got rid of the pointless elastic waist strap.

But it's only great as far as military shit goes. Standard issue armored vests are shaped to protect you from shrapnel (eg. artillery, grenades, and mines), not be super high speed kicking in doors and shit. SF, Rangers, etc. use other brands because they're not preparing to go into large scale conventional conflicts, or occupational duties against IED-happy locals.

There is a lot of hubub about the Serpa can cause an ND while drawing. I've tried to simulate this with an empty gun and can only make it happen with an insanely contorted hand and finger position. Nothing close to how my hand moves, even under stress.

The other theoretical issue with paddle holsters is a rock or dirt clogging up the button. To me this talk ofteb comes off as wannabe sagely advice being parroted. I carried a Serpa inna mountains and mud for reals and it never jammed up, so I trust that more than an underaged anon screeching at me that I'm operating wrong.

Selling multicams crye precision uniform and a plate carrier. Navy custom combat pants (with hardshell knee pads that fit in them) size 34r, army custom field shirt size medium regular, army custom combat shirt medium regular, JPC (?) 2.0 for medium size plates (not included)

My brother just gave me all his shit from afghanistan, but I'm selling it because neither of us need it for anything anymore. The uniform pieces are in good shape because they were his backup set, but the carrier is battle worn. I'd prefer to sell it all at once, but I'm willing to split the carrier into its own lot. Leave me an offer here or email me at [email protected].

It really depends where you are at. My local MP knows all the medics in our country on a first name basis. He has really lenient protocols and trusts his providers and lets us do a lot of things here most places don't with a few exceptions. I'm only a EMT-Basic but I can do IV ad IO access, and supraglottic airway. Most places don't have those kind of MPDs

>>33459250
not him but other medfag. where are you located?

Did GT open up another button down on his shirt in his newest video? I have a feeling it just keeps getting lower. By the summer I expect (and hope for) a GT pinup.

Have any of you dudes with padded tactical belts ever done any long range or semi long range movements with the belt on? How well does they stay secure and most importantly how bad does it chafe/rub your sides?

>>33460652
Ok, so I wore a cheapshit padded belt outside of an ALICE belt, using cheapshit suspenders in Afghanistan for a while. I couldn't even tell you the brand, but it was basically what would be considered airsoft tier around here. It was loaded down pretty heavy with stuff I needed (reason for adding it in the first place after all).

It never really chafed. I got far worse chafing and scratches when I did earlier stateside training using a full ALICE setup (I learned the hard way about putting tape on ALICE suspender snaps).

I haven't done movements as far since, but in my personal ruckings or innawoodsings I have gravitated heavily towards thinner, smaller, lighter belts. Padding honestly doesn't do shit for me. I'd rather just have a thin belt and have it light (under say, 5 pounds of loadout). For a shooting belt having a pistol, one rifle mag, one pistol mag, shotgun shells, medical kit, and a multitool is more than enough. Anything else can go in a pack or tacticool full body (chest rig vest) rig.

Mine tended to migrate to my natural waist (about three inches above my hips). It never have me any notable chafing and the heat rash under it was no worse than that on the rest of my body. Fuck Ft. Polk.
I am looking to go to a smaller belt with keepers or Velcro on the future, as I carry less medical stuff than I used to. Pic is from last summer.

>>33460652
Depends what you are doing and if your wearing a pack, atleast in my experience. Ive done patrols with a belt, no problem for long distance. But ive done long distance ruck runs or hikes and had to strap them to the pack instead of my waist. Personally ive moved towards low pro, with velcro inner. Its def the way to go. Those big ass bulky ones are only needed if you have a ton of stuff, and if you have a ton of stuff youll need like suspenders too.

Does it look real?

>>33462678
Yes, the fakes look as good as the real thing. Your pic is airsoft/10, the camo is the giveaway. Likely some sort of TMC/Emerson, probably will hold up for how little you'll actually use it but people here are going to rip you apart so wut you gunna do.

A Camelbak/Source/whatever water bladder rides in it, secured with a little strap at the top of the bladder. The tube coming out the side is what you drink from. Usually you slip water purification stuff and a small survival kit in there too, just in case.

What's the best setup for general EDC and handgun carry on a ship? Not looking for maritime security setups but rather something for a crew member. I'm thinking about getting an R-Karbid or 5.11 UCR thigh rig.

>>33467560
My guess it totally depends on your job, and company. If you need to conceal it, then just an IWB. If you can open carry, just get a OWB and a nice belt. Dont bother fuckin around with a thigh rig unless you have other tactical gear.

>>33466979
>>33467302
I agree, but the anon I replied to seemed ultra-poorfag tier so I figured he's only using it to LARP. On that not the gauze is posted is also not impregnated with hemostatic compounds so you may want to get Quickclot combat gauze once you've saved up. Everything else seems TCCC complient.

7.62 ball or 7.62 APM2?

If they're USGI surp and a SAPI plate then they're rated even a little beyond NIJ IV like most USGI and infatry armor.

What sizes of gauze are crucial to have in an ifak?

Right now I have 4x4, 5x9, and 3x8 because I had it and it fit

Is there any reason for me to carry the 4x4 and 3x8? I'd imagine anything small enough for a 4x4 can be handled with a ziploc of bandaids and anything that needs an ifak needs some big shit

>>33472765
There isn't really a reason not to have a diverse amount of bandaging. The 4x4 is meant to cover while a longer piece like the 3x8 is meant to be wrapped.

>>33472343
So is that a no for 7.62ball resistant plates, trauma plates and carrier for 200? It's looking like a pretty good deal even if I want to just run in it.

Man, here's to hoping he has some other seal buddies too.

>>33472765
if 4x4 means 4" by 4" and so on, none of those are really suitable

You're really looking for something ~4" wide and around 4 yards long.

In an IFAK, gauze is used generally to treat penetrating trauma, typically junctional injuries that can't be treated with a TQ. So you have to pack a lot of gauze directly into the wound to apply pressure on whatever arteries have been severed.

A dinky little 4" by 4" pad is nowhere near enough actual material to apply that pressure.

>>33473024
The only one I can find even close to that is a single plate that looks cracked and beaten to shit..

>>33473457
if plates are labeled "training only" it's for a reason
and this $200 pair is overpriced for such shit condition.

>>33473509
They don't say training on them though? I don't know when that was mentioned. They say 7.62mm Ball something Protection with a big US underneath it. There is no training mark on it and as far as I can tell both them and the soft body protection were legit.
I've heard stories of them being sold for 50$ for both sets, and another anon posted a 25$ plate screen cap.

I'm just not sure if they're worth getting. Again, no training marks, just the mention of 7.62mm ball. Not APM or APM2.

Found a used LBT 6094A Multicam at my local gun store with 3 OCP USGI double mag pouches, 2 OCP USGI pistol pouches, OCP USGI grenade pouch, and a Condor fuckhuge afmin pouch for $249.99. Should I pick it up?

USGI map pouches are neat, pistol pouches eh, grenade pouch you won't use and admin pouch is dumb but a 6094 for basically half off and with extra resell or bargin shit that's a steal.

>>33468484
>that beard
absolutely halal brother takbir!

>>33473555
Date of manufacture of the 6094? For used stuff that's honestly not a very compelling price. The pouches are probably worth $50 between all of them and $200 for a used 6094 is not that compelling unless it's near mint and from the days before LBT quality started to decline.

>>33473581
So I'm still unclear on this. Is front and back SAPI 7.62mmball, a 9mm truama vest and some random plate carrier for 200 acceptable? I don't buy things online a lot so anxiously scanning for those kinds of deals really isn't my strong suit.

>>33473599
Manufacture date was 2014 I think. It has little to no wear. I don't know where most buy their LBT, but even used ones in moderate condition go for $340ish on Ebay.

>>33473645
Okay I just realized there are two of us asking about the same thing. The 7.62ball plates I'm talking about for 200$ with the trauma pads and carrier do not have the padding shown in the pic in the post you referenced.

>>33473617
Yes, that's a great deal. Most mil SAPIs go for 250 a piece and up on Fleabay.

>>33473692
Sounds like a good deal if it's for 2 full plates, but would you care to post a screenshot or something to go off of?

>>33473633
Don't be fooled into thinking what you see listed on Ebay is what people actually pay for stuff.

I would estimate at any given time 75% to 80% of the tactical gear listings on there are from people who throw up insane prices, waiting literally months or even years for some confused person with more money than sense to buy their overpriced stuff.

Also for purely utilitarian purposes I think the LBT 6094 is seriously overrated. I own one, along with a Mayflower APC, a Asgaard Tactical plate carrier (a now-defunct small business run by a guy who works at Snigel Design), and a Spiritus Systems NV-119. The 6094 doesn't really offer anything that can't be done better by another plate carrier.

>>33473697
That's for ESAPIs. I bought a pair of nearly new SAPIs for $200 myself. So if they're really in good shape they're worth it, if only for good training plates.

>>33473752
What is an actual good place to get the true market value of gear?

>>33473795
You can get some idea by watching ebay over a longer period of time. Pay attention to the auctions cause usually the ending prices on those are more realistic. If you have Facebook you can look at some tactical gear buy/sell/trade type groups to get an idea of what people ask for (they won't always get it, of course).

For buy-it-now type stuff on Ebay pay attention to how fast it goes. For example, if I want to know if a price of $120 for a Safariland 6354DO holster is realistic, so I watch a couple listings at $170 and one at $125. The $170 listings stay for months and the $125 one goes after a week, so I figure $120 is more reasonable than $170. (Of course, I could also check HolsterOps and see that the damn things sell for $115).

The first time you see an item posted you're not gonna really be able to tell how much it's going to generally go for. Don't worry about missing out and just wait and see how high auctions go. Don't get sucked in by outdated prices (eg: AOR1 Eagle FB pouches used to be worth $40, now they're worth like $12 cause the DOD liquidated a shit-ton of them and there are hardly even any pics of them being used by SEALs)

can someone put together a basic list for noobs about what chest rigs are good quality with strong stitching and what "must have" gear is for self defense in a SHTF riot situation?

>>33474696
Yeah, was thinking about getting a mayflower rig, but with any luck, he or one of his - what I'm discovering to be - MANY friends has one.

So far I've spoken to 5 NSW guys, 3 of which half-revealed they were SEALS (kind of surprised me, quietest, cool-headed, most modest guys you'd ever meet) all who have left within the past 3 years, so they have a decent amount of more recent high speed gear between them, but I'm hoping to meet one who was serving in the early 2000's.

>>33474739
Just keep an eye on the threads then, I perfer to keep it simple emailing offers rather than trying to keep up with who I offered first dibs on what.

Soon enough I'll have some good photos of all the crye stuff my brother gave me, going out to everyone who emailed me first, then here. Like I said before, it's a pair of NAVY custom multicam combat pants, AC multicam field shirt, AC multicam combat shirt, and combat worn JPC 2.0, preferably for sale as a single lot, or split as plate carrier alone and the clothing as its own lot.

>>33474774
Decent chest rigs off the top of my head:
>Chicom (Buy multiple if you go with this option, they're cheap and durable. The only bad one is the SKS one that has a little cloth rack for stick grenades. Type 56, Type 63, and Type 81 are good to go.)
>HSGI AO chest rig with quality pouches
>Any Mayflower chest rig that suits what you're carrying (now sold on Velocity Systems's website)
>Blue Force Gear chest rigs (added bonus is that they are made with a proprietary "Ultracomp laminate" that is melted together or something and is stronger and much lighter than Cordura nylon)
>Crye Precision chest rigs
>LBT chest rigs
>FirstSpear chest rigs
>Eagle Industries chest rigs

>>33474779

Is London Bridge Trading the same quality as LBX tactical? Is LBX is owned by LBT but is LBX an airsoft version or something? Wanting a 6094.

>>33474795
>LBT chest rigs
is there any reason to get a chest rig vs a plate carrier? do people like wearing their armor underneath separate from their gear rig for a reason? kind of like how cowboys used to have a gunbelt separate from their pants belt, for easy removal when relaxing?

>>33474854
On the off chance that you're serious, no. No. Just... no. No Condor. No Flyye. No Redhead (Bass Pro store brand). No NCStar.

>>33474866
I like to have a slick plate carrier and a separate chest rig. You wear the chest rig over the slick carrier, but if you want to just have armor, then you have an armor carrier that you can conceal under a jacket or a loose shirt. If you want to roll light and fast, you can just wear the chest rig with no armor. It's just personal preference.

>>33474866
in general the chest rig is if you don't want to wear plates. if you do want plates, get the carrier. an empty carrier being used as a rig is non optimal but if you can only afford one i guess that's what you'll have to do. some people in certain jobs like to have a bare bones carrier and the option to throw a rig on top but most people will only have to wear one at a time.

What's the best affordable micro battle belt I can get ahold of? I just can't justify paying $100 for just a belt.

>>33476031
AWS lab belt

>>33476031
sorry but you're not likely to get anything very good if you want a Ronin / Tyr style belt at much less than $100. Those kinds of belts are a serious pain in the ass to sew.

>>33476031
Not "micro" in the manner of a TYR belt, but a Bianchi police belt is like $10 and it is a lot shorter than most giant battle belts.

>>33472331
This >>33472341 but I did move it forward a bit since then.

just get a stiff riggers belt. Outdoor wilderness instructors belt or something. Those riggers belt with molle have to have webbing sewn on and that's expensive. use a rigger's belt, have the same stiffness, and now you just have to use belt pouches. too easy

Its about time I stopped dicking around with off-the-shelf holsters and got some good stuff. Any suggestions on quality sources for:

Tuckable IWB concealment holster (P938)

Tacticool belt holster (Glock M41 with TLR-1, P226 with TLR-1)

Two 2"x10 yard surgical tape
One Celox rapid ribbon
One celox z-fold gauze
Two CAT tourniquets
Two h&h gauze
Two hyfin vent compact twin packs
Two 4" emergency pressure dressings
Two rusch NPA's size 28
