Continuing from last thread regarding rucks/packs, what do YOU guys use that fit the 3 day pack category? Maybe Im thinking too into this, but in total what I'd be carrying is this.

3 Skivvy rolls
3 days worth of stripped MRE's
Ample hydration to be spread over three days
Vitamin pills
Tarp
Bivy/Sleeping bag
Sleeping mat
IFAK and FAK
OTC meds
Fire starter
Signalling mirror
container of tinder
Cold weather gear
Those little expanding cylinder towels
Navigational equipment
Knife
Pocket chain saw

>>34855176

but yes I did, made it really easy.
>>34855165
https://www.russian-thunder.com/product-page/landscape-dpm-paint-stencil-package
buy those, follow instructions.

as for paint the rifle and stock are using liquitex spray paint, cant remember the exact colours but basically just pull up a DPM image and compare the paint color on the can to the image. the rail has the same stencil but I used just the krylon camo colors.

Looking at getting a new belt setup. Also going to get a hydration carrier and order IFAK supplies.

Does anyone have anything to say about a belt setup that uses an inner/outer belt system that connects with velcro, so you can pull your gear on and off?

I get that the velcro will wear out eventually and need replaced. Is there anything else to consider?

I assume I shouldn't put too much weight on it, but it looks like it can more than handle what I will put on it. Was planning on putting a handgun, 2 rifle mags, 2 pistol mags, an IFAK, and a Leatherman on it.

On a hard day I personally consume about 5 liters. I'm talking a 15 mile day with decently strict water rationing. That is 11lbs of water. Even more if you're pushing a pace in the heat. I'm about 6' and 200 lbs so adjust accordingly. Multi day backpackers use purifying tablets, filters, or boiling and straining. Chose one or a combination of the three. I personally go tabs and boiling since you're bringing fire starting stuff anyway and mess stuff isn't that heavy.

Mystery Ranch is solid and the Propper Arcteryx ILBE isn't bad either if you're on more of a budget.

Anywhere it rains or gets seriously cold 1 spare pair of socks is not gonna cut it.

>>34856107
Not that dude but the dude he's responding to.
Socks are a separate matter. Extra skivvy rolls are contingency plan, incase I get soaked before I can get my poncho liner on etc. Thick wool socks would be part of my cold weather gear.

>>34855194
>>34855344
Ditch the cold weather gear unless you actually are in the cold. You won't change your thong every day, so one extra and a bunch of pairs of socks. I suggest mixing up your food some. You don't want to live off of MREs alone. I like to bring pouches of tuna or other protein heavy things along. You already got told about your water situation. I bring iodine and a straw with me for that. I suggest a poncho. It is your pack's rain cover, your hooch, a hammock, a rain funnel, and whatever else you figure out. I might forgo the pocket chain saw, or a least try it out before you trust it for anything. I have had dreadful luck with the things, and now just use a knife for little things and break the big stuff up with some vigorous stomping. A sharp e-tool works in a pinch as an ax, so long as you are just going after softer wood like white birch.
Three days is a lot if you plan to live strictly out of a pack. I suggest a small ruck for that if you plan to be moving a lot. Rigid frames make a massive difference. I have a hellcat Alice that I like. If you want to pretend that it is 2005, you might want to look into that. TT used to make a very good Alice pack, but I haven't seen one in the field in a while.

>>34856088
Personally 30L for three days is pretty thin. I wouldn't do that on just a civilian backpacking trip. I've a friend who has done the PCT several times and the Appalachian. Even hardcore backpackers don't really do less than 40 liters for multi days between resupply.

I mean if you're skipping the tent and the sleeping bag and pad I guess.

On a 3 day patrol you're carrying combat sustainment too. IDK how much backpacking experience you have but the Khard 60 is a light pack so even if you only pack it to 45 liters it won't be that heavy.

>>34856176
If you're talking about the MALICE pack (and now apparently they make a MALICE series that looks nothing like the original), they still make it but I've been hesitant to buy it.
I was open to rucksacks too but don't know what to look for in regards to brand, quality, etc.
I'm in Northwestern Montana so it gets pretty fucking cold up here anytime from late fall to late spring. Summer is only about 1 month in terms of actual temps.

>>34856187
I have almost none. All backpack experience has been at school or some tiny range hydration pack with a cleaning kit and random food.

>>34856088
I have a 45 liter pack and I can just barely pack enough for 3 days of comfortable living including sleep gear and shelter. If I need to carry any extra/specialty items I need to start strapping stuff to the side of the pack. This is partly because I dont have the most compact / expensive gear in my pack but
>>34856187
is right. I would still step it up to at least 45 or so liters.

If its raining so hard that you need 4 pairs of socks for 3 days you need to leave the jungle. I live in the cold and barring falling into a stream I cant imagine a scenario where you would need to swap 4 pairs of socks.

>>34855555

>>34856088

Only if you have a compact (volume wise) shelter and don't bring anything unnecessary. 30L is stretching a multiday trip. Remember that you must pack for your environment and expected route, so plan in advance on what you're expecting to see and go around that. Don't pack everything you think you might possibly need.

If you're adamant on having a 30L, you should consider exterior pockets for lighter weight gear. There's people that have done with 25L packs for a weekend trip, so it's not totally impossible, you just have to think about what you absolutely need and can work around with.

>>34855093
kill yourself nazi

>>34856176
Whats stopping me from getting the khard 60 is the fact that I cant get a sleeping mat attached to the bottom of it like I can many others.

>>34856536
Im not against a larger pack or ruck whatsoever, like I said above, I just don't know what to look at. I see a tactical tailor RR5100 but its fuck 725 dollars or a MALICE which is 400 but I dont know how those are. Alice packs are starting to show their age, and MOLLE 2/The USMC FILBE is shit

If you don't already have a bunch of highly compressible light weight backpacking gear you're going to need at least 45L if not more if you're serious about being kitted for a 3 day 45 mile LRRP sort of thing. You said price wasn't too much of an issue. A high quality Arcteryx like the Khard in 60L will be solid. Want to make that a 5 or 7 day without resupply? Bump up to the 80 or their bigger packs.

Remember a good quality pack will have minimal dry weight. Sub 5lbs is industry standard (backpacking not MIL) for a big pack and even less for the higher quality stuff. This means you can always underpack and not make use of all the volume and you're not really hurting yourself by carrying more pack than you need to.

>>34856416

Darn toughs and good boots. Unless you're crossing water good boots keep out snow and rain. Some Darn Toughs will last too.
Extra socks are smart obviously, but have become sort of a meme at this point.

>>34856588
>Sleeping mat
>2017
If you're spending $500 on an arcteryx pack you can afford a decent $$60-$100 air sleeping pad. They are lighter, more comfortable, more insulating, and take up WAY less volume. Anyone still using a pad or a classic thermarest is way fucking behind on the times. And don't talk to me about punctures, they come with patches kits and are quiet durable. I have easily 30 nights on my poorfag Klymit air pad if not more, and it has held up fine.

>>34856666
Nice digits AM. How are you?
When are we going to get authentic poly/ceramic level IV plates in 10x12" coming in at 5lbs that can stop M855A1 and M80A1 EPR?

What are some good 2 point strap options? I don't know where the line between poverty garbage and overpriced tacti-garbage is with that kind of stuff.

>>34857218
I dont have a bivvy, bag, or sleeping mat. Everything else on my list is as compact as can be
I have a tarp but I wouldnt consider it remotely qualified for backpack/rucksacking as its huge even when folded.
Will probably pickup a new smaller one to use as a roof when setting up shop.
I'd be buying these items afterwards based on quality and size.
I'm taking a good long look at the Tactical tailor Malice packs now that I found some reviews of them from guys who used em in conjunction with armor.
Its 4550 CU/74L.
So then continuing/updating list from here:
>>34855194
Poncho liner
Spare firestarter
Iodine tablets
Mess kit
Some survival stove - probably an esbit
blocks for esbit
lighter in case esbit is a bitch
Mix in regular food with MRE's now that I have the real estate
Three to five extra magamazines.
Malice pack is huge, Im probably gonna compress my back with all the shit I'll carry, including pc, funs, fun belt, and kevlar.

Opinions on this place? Also opinion on their plate carrier selections.

https://grey-shop.ru/sale

>>34857694
Yeah, they have the MALICE and then they have the new PNW Malice packs which look nothing like Alice packs but the biggest has 5100 inches and uses the same frame. It cost 730 though which is the killer. The one thing I've heard people complain about is that you put more in it since its huge so that its not flopping around. The straps back in 2010 we're too slippery and you'd have to stop and cinch them. That was 7 years ago.

Dear Queers,

I would love to buy them Russian PCs, Cubano Cortes, from R-Karbid. They are recommended in the sticky, reviews seem very favorable and they are cheap as fuck.

The question is, where actually buy those? There is official R-Karbid site, but it seem a bit shady and I don't wanna sponsor some russian drinking party and receive bag of potatoes instead of a plate carrier.

I know some of you own those, so where did you bought them?

Thanks. Posting at least my shooter to be of some value.

>>34856588

For that money you should be looking for hunting or hiking packs that are built for comfort and not by lowest bidder. Exo Mountain, Kifaru, Hill People Gear, Mystery Ranch, the list goes on for smaller pack makes. I know TT makes good stuff, but you should try on the aforementioned packs first before committing and see which you like best.

>>34856601

Why the ALICE specifically? It's going to ride worse than modern designs unless you get a modern harness and suspension, but you'd be getting into new pack territory.

>>34860212
I could order some for you and ship (i've shipped to TrIIz and gorkaguy), but i'm really busy with my job at the moment and just getting to the post office can take me an additional week.

>>34860463
Yeah absolutely happy with the quality. My ONLY complain is that karbid uses a bit wider chest rig attachment points, so there's some trouble slapping a d3cr onto their PCs.

Fug can't say i did a lot of outdoor activities, just a couple range trips. But still i don't see any reason for the gear not to be durable - stitching is top notch, velcro is great too (he uses italian made on the dark olive models).

Crye plate carriers look so comfy. Too bad they dont come in multicam tropic

>>34861060
It really is strange and unfortunate that Crye doesn't offer meaningful support for their own colorways.

>>34861199
Mainly due to the overhead costs and lack of actual adoption. Now that 7th group among others have been using tropic in Africa and 5th group was just at CAPEX this year in Arid, we might see more support. The original idea was that multicam LBE and hard goods was universal, and one would change their base combat layer based on environments. Call crye, make your voice heard.

>>34860820

If you are just a dude with money and is like idc I just want the coolest shit so I can take pics and shit, we aren't going to give a fuck about your questions, because there is already too much of that. You show that you really give a fuck about this shit and you've done your research, and can give requirements and BASIC mission statements for a pc/gear then people will want to help you.

That's my first post work, 25 oz Budweiser post for the day.

Laser cut molle doesn't seem like a meme IMO but actually seems like a fantastically innovated production technique to reduce weight.

I have no real usage experience with it though so I can't speak to durability.

>>34860355
It was definitely my original plan to use the bivy bag and tarp setup which is why I refrained from purchasing those until I get my ruck. Just ordered it and its coming in the mail later this week.

Whats the difference between that and the STT?

>>34862768
The högg has better shoulder padding and is just generally nicer. The STT isn't bad, but it's very obviously a "budget" PC.

What size are you, and what are you looking for? Cold weather gear, field uniforms, gortex, etc? I'm in the US now, but I still have friends in Lithuania. I still have my deserts and I love them. The cut is awesome.

Would probably be like $100 plus shipping a set of woodland combats.

We'll have to meet up some time. Just across the river from Augusta here, in Aiken. I want to see how light that ruski helmet is in person. You can try a proper helmet, like my ops core maritime.

You have any night vision? I want a battle buddy for my pvs-15's.

>signed t. sealbuyer anon

>>34863345
It's really goddamn light, so light I actually want to see a real ballistic test with it, I think someone showed me one earlier this summer, but I still need to see that shit with my own eyes.
I'd love to compare a maritime to my SOHAH, I'm sure it's much lighter, to bad I have a big ass head and the L/XL barely fits.
>You have any night vision? I want a battle buddy for my pvs-15's.
Not yet sadly, had to pay off my car and other shit this summer, so could only afford one fun thing.

everytime people talk about sohah helmets I read it as shoah instead and get confused for a second

Shoot me an email at [email protected] and we can exchange phone numbers. Do you know any good ranges? I'll make a drive, there aren't any around me. Just got a part time job at my LGS, but all they have is an indoor pistol range and 4 lane 50m rifle.

Because you need to feel the artery pumping out blood and apply the hemostatic agent there. With the plunger, you're not going to know where the opening of the tube is in correlation to the artery without shoving your finger in alongside it and raping a dudes gsw.

Just get combat gauze. Every ER on the planet will know how to handle the stuff. One pack of that and one compressed gauze is plenty for most junctional hemorrhages, assuming you secure your packing properly.
>>34864386
I agree that they are terrible for field use, but that is the way you use the things. Honestly, packing a wound with combat gauze is hardly a gentle, loving act.

>>34864489
just use more starch

Yes, I know it is expensive. I trust what I know, though. I think it is worth it. My background is all 68w stuff. Maybe guys from other countries or the civilian side could give you more comparison.

cool, i almost enlisted as that

i think i might get the granulates and some s roll gauze for now, im mainly interested in treating severe bleeding in areas its harder for a tourniquet

also is there a difference between z roll or s roll

>>34865368
I really hope that hatchet was not used to split that wood...

>>34862211
Clearly you don't

Guys is there really a point for soft armor? What about side plates? That dude asking for a balcs setup really got me thinking. If shit really were to go south and it was mano y mano against eachother, isn't the more the merrier?
Now I get that if youre at the range front and back would make sense but I dont get all around armor.

>>34865628

>>34865528

>>34865628
>soft armor
METT-TC
Are you in a situation where you need a lighter armor and/or you are more likely to face hand gun calibers?
>side plates
I personally would use them when tactically larping in vehicles and dismounting because your sides are more vulnerable when in a vehicle. Otherwise I see it as unnecessary weight.

>>34865368
I feel like all these IFAKs with tourniquets are instilling the belief of resorting to tourniquets immediately. In most cases, a pressure bandage and elevation would suffice. Granted, my medical training only consists of a Red Cross first aid course. I was taught that tourniquet pretty much = amputation and to use only as a last resort, e.g. arm is spaghetti.
I do like the SWAT-T for its ability to be a pressure bandage for hard to bandage areas, as well as a sling for arm fractures.

>>34860078
It's great. It'll be my mainstay for awhile.

>>34866497
the purpose of IFAKs is to provide immediate care to sever injures that cant wait in a small package

also from my understanding if you get to treatment within the hour you stand a very good chance to regain function of it if its not gone or torn to bits

So it looks like my education is outdated. According to this study, you have a 6 hr window before permanent damage sets in, and that time can be increased with ice packs.

Ah ok, nice setup, do you have your rifle license there? Quick question do you know if Esapi side panel plates will fit in their cumberbund? They look a little tall but I have 2 laying around I'd like to use.

>>34867380
Yeah got my rifle license last month and immidiately bought ak-47 type-3, now scraping some funds to buy a molot rpk-74m and a 5.45 saiga.
Nah side plates won't fit in cubanos cummerbund, you'll need a pouch for these or something.

Nice, I love the look of milled AK's but hate the weight, heres my milled Yugo. I guess I will go without side plates, the Cubano should fit a Level IV ceramic plate such as http://www.lifeandlibertygear.com/shop/hesco-armor-bi-4400-gl-10x12-level-iv-armor-plate/ correct?

>>34867475
There are different plate cuts at this link, idk. If you mean sapi-cut, there's a cubano model just for that.

>>34867570
Sorry, can't tell for sure as i use mine with ruski granit plates.

Is the LV-MBAV really the bees knees or would a slickster, first spear sleeper, and other similar pcs come close?

>>34868113
There's nothing special about lv-mbav really, other than it's a nice and refined slick+chest rig combo. Any slick with attachment points for chest rig buckles is close.

I'm thinking of getting this bag for hiking as well as commuting to school on my bike (mostly cycling commuting). Does anyone have any experience with this bag (the Legion-Elite Day Pack) or would you recommend a different one?
This bag appears to checks off a lot of my requirements.

The size is good since I will only be carrying my tablet and one or two textbooks and a change of clothes. I also like the side and internal compression straps to keep everything nice and secure during my ride.

It has a hydration bladder pouch for drinking while riding to school which is a must for me due to living in a desert.

The helmet carrier and sunglasses pouch will be used to for holding said items during class

I don't mind paying a little bit of money for a nice bag that has all of these features that I would use but I wouldn't mind saving some money if there was a less expensive alternative. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
