If you could only choose one: chest rig / war belt, which would you choose?

alice gear, h suspenders

>>35152445
I have a belt, I don't like things constricting my chest.
>>35152449
This works too.

>>35152445
ALICE LBV is what I go camping in now. It's really comfy if you don't set it up like a retard.

Use both in conjunction with one another, these are two different loads. You see, the belt can be stand alone, but is very restricted to how much it can carry. It also depends on context. Just screwing around at the range? Belt. Operational training? Full load. It should also be noted that if the operation or training is more than just reconnoitering, that chest rig needs to be a plate carrier. If you plan on fighting, you should always have both the munitions and the armor to get it done. The belt is part of the survival level load, so it is used to get some weight off of your torso and back. But, it should also have enough on it that if you need to ditch your PC or CR after or during a contact break that you can still defend yourself until your regroup with your element or make it back to your PB, RP, or even all the way back to HQ if necessary. Just make sure whatever you do is consistent, also when using both, make sure you draw ammo off of your chest first. The reason is that even though the belt is faster, you want that weight off of your upper body. Experiment and see what works, always put a premium on mobility. It kills, for better or worse.

Small chest rig + minimalist molle belt like the Ronin/Tyr

I take a Molle double AR magazine pouch, put it on a work belt along with a holster I use when clearing out my friends farms. In the truck I also have an mossberg 835 and an ammo sling separate from the gun I made up from those buckle-less belts and an SKS mag pouch for shells.

Light weight and space efficient

ALICE gear is the fucking shit.
>>
>>35153546
a pistol only makes sence as a backup in short range
the vest fits 10 magazines (ar15), 1 camelback, 2 mre, 1 map, 1 compass, 1 pen flare, 1 pen, 2 m18 smoke, 1 ifak, 1 goretex sleeping bag, 1 Poncho + accessories like firekit...... everything you need for a 2 day patrol

>>35153584
It should still have a pistol holster.

what about plate carrier?

>>35152453
Fatty detected. Go LARP more, fag.

>>35153545

Driving around with AR with 1-6x vortex scope, pistol, and shotgun getting out of vehicle sometimes to walk trails and removing all the problem animals. Both night and day, one has a NV scope that sees out about 100 yards on a 22lr but normally I just use gun lights.

Coyote, wild dogs, venomous snakes, armadillo, rabbit, coons/opossum (some have chickens), dove depending on whether theyre a problem, black birds, and hogs if I ever find one. I know there's hogs around and some of them have shot them before on their land but they're more rare here. The most important problem animal are coyote and dogs because they kill calf and chickens often and dig big holes in fields.

I do it for free because they let me use their land for long range shooting, there's no ranges past 200 yards here.

Bruh, you *NEED* to be prepared for any tactical situation that could occur within the theater of operations.

You might laugh at me, but I'll be the one having the last laugh when I'm having an ice cold soft drink(can't numb my sense with intoxicants like alcohol) with my comrades and you're at the urgent care getting a tetanus shot.

You can't stop this warrior. Ooh-rah!

wtf is a plate carrier/tac vest/tactical meme suspenders supposed to do to prevent tetanus

If you have to ask, there's no point in explaining. You see, you civies just don't have the mental, physical, or emotional fortitude to drive around in your father's truck and poach game. It's a tough job for tough men and I'd appreciate it if you showed a little grattitude.

you can get a Smersh
it is Alice style webbing with all the modern shit and giggles

I go hunting in ALICE gear with some MOLLE gear shoehorned in.

>ALICE webgear
>one mag pouch
>2 quart water canteen on left hip
>SAW pouch as possibles pouch on right hip
>on MA35 condor map pouch
>MOLLE 2 sustainment pouch(contains 3 SOS 3600 cal ration bars, 2 pairs undergarments, i wash towl and snivel gear)

I've honestly gotten lost, and subsequently fired because of, out innawoods. This gear and food i've had on has gotten me through at 28 lbs. It can maneuver better than a day pack and is balanced.

>warbelt

A shit. It sags and doesn't balance. Fuck it.

Doesn't have to be lost. It could be russians and you can't go home.

thats some next level paranoia to think that there will be paratroopers dropping in on you suddenly while you're making marshmallows on a camp stove like a pleb
