Thinking of getting a bucket in advance of cheap thermals coming out this year. Thinking airframe, but I've used some team Hillary shit in the past that was really nice too.
Pointers?
>>34059686
well most of us have picked up cheap ukrainian ballistic helmets as of late. But i had a Team Wendy bump helmet and really loved the shit out of it.
>>34059725
How cheap?
Air frame looks nice as shit, but the price tag is wince inducing. Still it is feature packed
>>34059686
What is this cheap thermal you speak of?

So Gargantuanon recommend I get AR500
Did I done good?
>>34059841

Glad I could make you proud.
V2
Same pattern, modified as I sewed
This time it's messier, but is more rigid. (Still floppy, I think Velcro will help though)
Sewed a pinch into the corners to give it some shape as well as making it from a heavier fabric, worked out ok.
Esstac inserts will be here tomorrow, Velcro and webbing will be in on Friday for a V3.
woo, just ordered a Yugoslavian genocide parka from Varusteleka

Thank you SO much Anon. This is extremely helpful.
V2 was made before you posted that, but V3 will use all the info!
I asap really appreciate your point about it being floppy, makes me feel better about how floppy mine are.
Had a KWI insert slide through last range trip. I thought they sewed the inner female velcro inside but it's just the stock adhesive that you get with the regular velcro rolls.
Which one should I buy /k/?

Anyone know a good velcro insert for subgun mags that would fit in a Spiritus rig or roo pouch like on the LBT carriers? My subgun fetish knows no bounds.
So I found this in a lgs. All I know about it is that it has a MSA tag on the inside, how'd I do?
>>34059856
You have fallen for the ruse
>>34061493
No problem. Like I said, if you need anything else, let me know. If v3 goes good, I may attempt at making my own.
What material did you use for v2?
>>34061699
I would think the spiritus pistol mag inserts would work fine.
>>34059856
You're going to die from a [insert famous basketball here] but other than that sure.
>>34062275
Reebok fragmentation?
>>34061723
It looks like an ACH. Looks fine, it's not a wallhanger like a PASGT or steel pot. Not conspicuously expensive like a 0.6oz ballistic nanoweave helmet, but it protects your noggin and mounts NODs.
I'd get aftermarket straps like Ops-Cores, especially if you plan on putting NODs on top.
>>34062362
I was thinking air Jordan's but yeah that sounds good as well.
>>34060243
>nice tactical beard
>wouldtakbirwith\10
I've got a helmet
>>34062217
V2 is corduroy, I think. It was sold as upholstery fabric and I've had it too long to remember exactly.
Once I get it right I'll post the pattern I used here. :)
what are those lights you all have on the back of your helmets?
>>34062455
They have MS2000 strobes. IR/visual strobes.
>>34062458
that's neat, thanks
>>34062406
But will you get any (you)s ?
>>34062406
Post mk18. And how much you have into it
>>34062772
Neat
I did a thing.
I should have absolutely everything I need to go innawoods now, I also figured the sleeping bag situation out.
Now I just need some fucking plates to keep GQing
I need a good helmet under $400 for nvgs that is comfortable.
>>34063467
ACH with upgraded pads, suspension, and a counterweight. should be under $400 easy
Looking for a good backpack to take innawoods. Something spacious. Velcro on it for patches would be nice but not required. Any suggestions?
>>34063467

Get one of the Ukrainian helmets, they're so hot right now.
This >>34063494
>>34063488
How long do you intend on being innawoods for?
>>34063593
A couple of days. Not looking for something H U E G like a rucksack.
>>34063596
Berghaus Munro is my go to for 2-3 day hike.
>>34063596
I use a Source 35L Patrol, you should look into a 3 Day pack or something bigger than 30Ls of internal space.
Also, look into a pack with a hydration system build in, as water is one of the heaviest and most space consuming parts of a trip.
>>34063494
why is it so fucking heavy? 3.5lbs??? that's heavier than a regular cut ACH
Im looking for a gas mask that doesnt break the bank and doesnt use asbestos
Any suggestions?
>>34063596
look into direct action gear for gucci
pic related is broken down into most similar form but it came with a second pack on the back
>>34063701
Caution this is Sparta is fuckin lame desu
>>34063917

>>34062224
Do the Spiritus inserts expand and contract like the Blue Force elastics? What's the retention like? Could retention be improved if Esstac pistol KYWI inserts were wedged in and attached to the velcro?
>>34063954
For you
>>34063596
I like this one
https://www.truspec.com/backpacks/double-strap/tour-of-duty-backpack/
>>34063811
Israeli civilian filters, French NATO spec filters, and American C2A1 filters are good to go. Avoid the regular C2 as it contains chromium, which is worse for you than asbestos. Get a Czech full-body condom suit and waders for max NBC protection. Do not get an East German NBC suit. They are held together with a suspicious plum-colored glue that melted from my body heat and ended up congealing on my skin and leaving nasty purple-gray marks on my skin. My life expectancy may be shorter than average now. Don't make the same mistakes I did. Also, pesticides are no joke.
>>34063811
buy a $35 respirator at lowes, spray it black/tan/oddishgreen
>>34064454
>truspec
that backpack is garbo, just wait for the lbt sale
When is Spiritus restocking? I force myself to wait a while and cool off when I want to buy something to see if I really, truly want it, and by the time I decided that the Spiritus rig was something I needed in my life, they were all out of stock. It's not like I want some popular high-speed color, anyways. I want fucking black, which always seems to be the least in demand.
>>34064498
Just get a FirstSpear Comm Pack in the blue/silver color. I got medium because I'm a waifish 5'6" tranny, but large might suit an average man better.. The thing is bombproof. I carry it to college, on hikes, on weekend excursions... it's a good bag.

My guess is they're building up stock of the mk3 before they start selling them or something
>>34063447
nice what are you going to do for a sleeping bag
Got a dumb question: so they make thigh and forearm plates?
>>34065023
Plates? Im sure someone does but they are so bulky that they hardly exist and are used by noone
Soft armor? Yep, IIIA soft armor is far more common but still bulky
Read about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ned_Kelly and how heavy armor works out
What do you guys like to wear under your plate carrier in hot, humid, and sunny weather?
>>34065101
Combat shirts
Friendship with Airframe ended now LsHZ-2DTM is my best friend.
>>34061635
How hot was it? I found the glue trying to heat up one kywi that was retardedly stiff but I haven't had anything since but also I refuse to opr8 past 80 deg
>>34065158
finna tread on you, snek
>>34065130
looking for specifics, I heard some of the cheaper ones don't breath well
>>34065340
I find that the non silky ones tend to absorb mosture better. Cryes use the soft cotton feeling shirts while cheaper brands tend to use the silky polyester style shirts.
If I was at the house I'd post a picture to show you. I'll probably put some up tonight.
You'll pretty much know by the itchiness and warmth when you have a cheap combat shirt.
>>34065101
I just wear a cotton blend t-shirt to be honest. Toss a little sun screen on if you're a pasty anglo.
>>34063811
Get a 3M one. Filters are cheap as hell and they're comfy.
What is more aesthetic, scarf...
>>34065949
... or shemag?
>>34065961
Shemagh kinda clashes with the flecktarn but I prefer the loose fit.
Get a larger scarf and you'll be set, ideally in a similar flecktarn.
>>34064435
Is say that kywi's would be too much for the inserts. It can sometimes be a pain to insert mags, and they are definitely not going anywhere. Another plus about the inserts is their versatility. I've my monocular in them and also my pistol, and those things were not going anywhere either.
With all that said, ive been wanting to get a ferro kydex insert to put in there. If you were just going to use it for ar mags, I think that would be the way to go.
>>34066024
Thanks for your input. I've been shying away from those flecktarn scarves because they usually don't have the real pattern, but I'll look into it more
Is it comfier to get a padded molle belt or just mount shit directly to a riggers belt?
With just a belt I'd imagine it would dig into my sides and be pretty uncomfortable with how tight i would want to cinch it so it doesnt rotate
and with a molle sleeve I could see how having the pouches farther away from my body would make them bounce more and also not be comfy
what do
>>34066180
Chest rig > battle belt imo
>>34064992
I got a very compact stuff sack and my existing 40° bag fits into it and actually fits at the bottom of my bag.
If I needed to put a bigger/warmer bag in I'd need to tie it like you guys suggested.
>>34066189
answer the question buttlord, but I can't fit my pistol and ifak and dump pouch and gatorade chews pouch on my chest rig can i
>>34059630
Was the Pattern 58 webbing worth buying.
Because I'm getting a horrible feeling I've fucked up.
>>34066180
Get a competition style belt with a velcro inner belt.
>>34063046
>mk18
I don't have one
Who makes a good under $200 chest rig that takes AR and AKM mags. Color doesnt matter, +4 mags would be great, and a med pouch is needed.
>>34066454
UCP FLC with all the fixin's from eBay. Dye it flat green or brown if you hate mooncamo.
>>34066485
That shits ugly hell no
>>34066502
You said color doesn't matter and you're ballin on a budget. For cheap, it's durably constructed and the UCP version especially can be found with tons of pouches. Dying it to a flat color isn't too much of a chore.
You can just buy a coyote colored one, but you won't get as many goodies with it- specifically the 3x mag pouches that can easily fit AK mags.
Or get a Type 81 ChiCom and stuff your aid into the admin pouches.
>>34066557
$200 isnt really balling on a budget. I didnt mean the color was ugly I meant that the vest look is ugly.
Old bucket #1
>>34066584
It may look ugly but an FLC (in any Camo) will do everything you want it to do.
>>34062371
Thanks for the replacement parts recommendation, chin strap needs it.
>>34066693
Any reason you didn't paint the NOD mount (I assume by "old" you mean from back in the military day)? It's a small thing, but I always found the unpainted NOD plates to be extremely distinctive and noticable.
>>34066704
But I want a chest rig not a vest
>>34059630
So I got back from a day of operating Inna swamp and my Quests were muddy as shit.
I left them for a day intending to clean them, but my dad in a stoned haze attempted to clean them for me without my knowledge.
He filled a sink full of hot water and let the boots sit, he then added fucking OxyClean powder and let them soak. He said that when he went to check on them that the water was black. (He thought it was dirt)
Noticed my boots were blacker then fucking usual and also looked wet even a day later. Touched them and now my fingers are black even after vigerous washing.
Fucker took the finish off my boots and it's now bleeding to whatever they touch.
What do?
Don't feel like telling my dad he ruined the finish on $300 boots.
>>34066749
Leave them in a bucket of water over night
>>34066454
I was going to type out exactly the rigs but you need to read the pastebin
>>34066727
I like the look of it unpainted

>PASGT wallhanger
Lvl IIIa is wallhanger now?
>>34067041
There is literally no reason to get it over a MICH. The two-point suspension sucks and the cut in the back mean if you go prone there is a decent chance it will get pushed down over your eyes. You can upgraded the straps and suspension but at that point it's really like, why spend that cash instead of getting a MICH?
>>34067071
Good points, but PASGTs are still viable on the cheap.
Personally I have a British Mk 6 helmet since I'm a Bong and they're like £50 here but it's a top heavy cunt.
>>34060243

Wearing one of those gives me a feeling of nodding off to sleep if I lean too far forward.
On the Ukraine helmet, the steel wires and the ratchet knob in the back, are those for pulling the helmet towards the rear?
Also the bungie chords on the front, suggested use?
>>34067282
The knob tightens the entire suspension system on your head. The bungie cords are to stabilize your NODs.
>>34067274
Mk 6 or PASGT?
Well the issue is the same for both.
>>34067343
Both.
Went airsofting with an Mk 6, some knob next to me kept bumping my shoulder because he thought I was nodding off.

It's just an AVS without harness capabilities. Have you considered the LHT offerings?
>>34068270
I tried the AVS, didn't like the amount of fabric that piled up underneath the cummerbund. You start with the harness, then the skeleton, then a side armor pouch if I needed it, then pouches on top. the jpc is just skeleton+addons. I prefer the least amount of fabric as possible, this is my 2nd JPC, I've owned 2 6094's, deployed with iotvs, mtvs, spcs, eagle ghetto rigs, and trained in an AVS, a first spear and other shit I dont remember the name of. Everything I've worn I've always wished I could just take shears to and remove every single piece of cordura that wasn't 100% essential. The jpc hits it on the head for me, although I'd prefer the bottom of the kangaroo flaps to secure to the bottom of the plate bag more securely, a it's annoying to have the whole thing flap up when going for a speed reload. Furthermore I'd like the quick release to be a one handed operation like my 6094 RS but until I can get handy with an industrial sewing machine... jpc 4 me, crye til i dy :3

You couldn't possibly hope to with that anti-gun platoon leader you'll have.

It's a meme mostly. It's a cool helmet that's supposed to be full level III equivalent with a visor to match. It's cool and pretty lightweight for a such a protective helmet (just over 6lbs with visor attached) but really it's just a cool looking meme.

The other idea is that you accept and understand shitposting without getting angry about it. If I were to shitpost in this thread that you couldn't dictate between good and bad gear because ur just a nat guard, would you get angry or would you recognize it's a shitpost? Take that and apply it to the platoon leader. I've known him for way longer than any of you and can shitpost like mad about the guy because I've known him for years and years. The meme separation between what you'll be able to make from the time you meet him to what I've known for years leaves you with no hope to compete. To me, he's not an outsider, but maybe he is to you which is why you're so defensive on his behalf. He owns up to his views and while I disagree and will make fun of them that's a hell of a lot more commendable than jumping to his defense as if he can't do that for himself.

You're priorities should be spare ammo, medical supplies, and water in that order. You can build an IFAK for under $50 if you do it right. Platypus water bladders are under $20 on amazon for a 3L one. I assume you have spare mags to go with the chicom.

>>34077532
Yeah ive used one these before. How many do you need to carry? The bandoleer can be kinda annoying sometimes.
>>34077563
>How many do you need to carry?
Probably a bandoleer and some sort of smaller carry card/pouch (3-6 grenades)
USPSA Carry Optics setup is a go.
>>34077575
Im considering exploring options into acquiring TRMR Distraction Devises. Ill probably aim for a carrier like this..
Just if you plan on wearing the bandoleer as a belt, obviously if you have an external belt set up its gonna be pretty annoying.
>>34077598
>Im considering exploring options into acquiring TRMR Distraction Devises. Ill probably aim for a carrier like this..
Its made by ALS so chances are slim, only official leo orders for agency use (not officer personal use) are approved by them. Wont even sell to dealers.
Im looking for two 40mm carrying setups, one bandoleer style and smaller for carrying 3-6 grenades.
>>34063811
>>34077616
Yeah thats what Ive seen, what can you do I guess, but im keeping an ear close to the ground..
LBT makes a 12rnd Bando, and a 2rnd pouch. I have an old single 40MM pouch, one of the most usual pouches ive ever had. Holds everything you need, from a 40mm to GPS.
>>34077616
>Its made by ALS so chances are slim, only official leo orders for agency use (not officer personal use) are approved by them. Wont even sell to dealers.
What do you mean? You can buy them on Fleabay.
>>34077440
I have ammo and mags (albeit bad batch of GT 5.56 with 5.45 primers, I got heavy springs and enhanced firing pin though).
Is there a resource for the IFAK information, I've looked into it before and people suggest a lot of stuff, I'd like to hear what actual people have instead of some guy on youtube.
>>34077916
check the paste bin but the tldr is you need 1 trauma bandage, 1 Z fold gauze (prefferbly hemostatic), 2 occlusive dressings, 1 NPA and 1 tourniquet.

Hey, those are the gloves I use at the range. Good 'ol Harbor Freight.
>>34078172
How much budget you have?
>>34078263
Because it's not a real NIJ rating. A company that rates their stuff as (((+))) is trying to stretch the armor's capability, and it labels it while not having it officially rated as anything by the NIJ. I don't trust any in-house tests no matter how much they claim to be using NIJ spec.

Is your barrel pinned, or is that an sbr?
2 vented chest seal pairs, 2 isreli bandages, nasal air thing with lubricant, decompression needle, sheers, 2 celox applicators and 2 cats. is this good or do should i replace the celox applicators with hemostatic bandages? i'd rather only carry life saving things and avoid the other things that add weight and bulk. i'd fit this into the smallest pack i could with a rip detach function from my plate carrier.
>>34079166
or should i replace the celox applicators with hemostatic bandages?*
>>34079166
>>34079179
i also always carry a rat around my belt
>>34079179
IMO the celox applicators are unnecessarily complicated and finicky to use. not that it would be impossible but it's a lot simpler to pack regular hemostatic gauze.
>>34079222
but for a novice that has never packed a wound before, you don't think the applicator would be easier to use?
>mfw all the Online stores with Defcon x Vans Sk8 His in Multimeme are all sold out
Is this hell? Or is it a sign that I shouldn't buy things that look nice.
Anyone happen to use the Surefire sonic defenders? Are they worth the price or total shit?
Brother plays his drums in the room next over, dad likes to blast his music whenever he can. I'd g with foamies but I'd go through them too quickly.
>>34063642
Not him but someone else. Do you have a pack list for a pack around that size? I'm looking for a pack in the 30L range for daily use and light 2 day use--so water, food, some ammo and magazines, and a compact shelter.
>>34063917
IDK why but I'm still considering one of these. I'm torn between the Ghost, a Palspocket/Umlindi, or a Mystery Ranch 3DAP.
>>34079838
Sure here's a list of stuff to have, if you have any questions feel free to ask, bored at the airport at the moment.
No particular order but you'll need all of this.
>Water
Both a Way to Carry a lot of it and purify more.
>Navigation Aids
I print out accurate topological maps of where I go innawoods, it's not hard to find them online and get a PDF file to download. Always bring a compass and map.
>Heat Source
I recommend you bring both a Camp Stove and also firestarting materials. Cotton wads dipped in petroleum jelly work awesome, I'm also considering making some napalm and putting it in a well sealed container next time I go out.
>Proper Clothing
I usually go innawoods in FL and it's really fucking hot and wet. This is going to depend on your area but certainly don't wear clothes that don't make sense for where you're going. Longsleeve>Short-sleeve, always bring extra socks. You really don't need a change of clothes, just bring extra underwear to avoid sanitation issues.
>Sleeping Setup
This is entirely subjective but make sure you can pack your desired sleeping setup with all your other gear. I personally use a hammock, tarp, and a sleeping bag. If you're in a dry area you could probably lose the hammoc.
>Rainproof your shit
Self Explanatory, make sure you and your gear isn't going to get soaked, and if it does, that you can dry it out fast. This means don't wear jeans, they never fucking dry.
>Some Basic Meds
Disinfectants and Bandaids are important, as is lifesaving stuff if you're going innawoods where people are trying to kill you.
>Food
You actually don't need as much food as you think, porker. Bring high calorie, high nutrition foods that don't take up a lot of space. Dried food pairs well with a camp stove. I bring Nutella and beef jerky.
That's most of the vitally important stuff.
>>34079838
Here's some miscellaneous gear you'll want to have
>Light Source and Plenty of Batteries
>Bug Spray, I use straight up DEET
>Paracord, usually you can make a nice shelter with just paracord and a tarp.
>A blade, both for using to cut things and chop wood. In FL I use my EDC knife and a Machete.
What are you comfortable with shelter wise? I know some people that will not go out unless they have a tent, which complicates things quite a bit.
>>34079690
Its a sign that you shouldn't be a fag that buys vans
>>34079838
I love the Sonic defenders. The only problem I have is that I keep losing them.

>>34080375
comtac IV's aren't that great. Your ears were never meant to be plugged up long-term. heard plenty of stories about inner ear infections and ear bleeding from guys issued similar headsets.
>>34080404
XPI is gucci as fuck but as a regular joe without rocket launchers and mortars you aren't likely to need the features it has.
>>34080515
