Any must reads about safty equipment and the history of military gear in the 20th and 21st centurys? I'm looking more for a history of webbing/ academic shit about modern LBE.

That's a tactical tailor H harness right?
Shit looks comfy
Tfw bought a h harness upgrade for the PIG UCR and its a shitty piece of nylon with some velcro.

Do you have the belt mounted one? What kind of attachement system does it uses?

It is TT and it is comfy af. I run around in my gear and I don't even notice it.

Looking for a micro rig, any suggestions?

only have the Molle one, unfortunately. But I'm extremely happy with its function and what it can pack.

>they aren't airsofters

I guess I’m going to have to start stating this when I post it, but it comes with no medical items. The medical items of even the basic kit cost atleast $50 if I remember correctly.

Anyone know where I can find this?

NFM Bear II. It was issued gear in Norway a few years back, but getting hold of it as a civilian has proven to be nigh impossible.

I'm also open to suggestions for gear that hold similar quality, and it has to be in Coyote Brown.

Thats sexy

The pouch by itself is $68 before shipping, so you can imagine it’s about $73 shipped.

What company is the right one from?

I do like that. Might take my small ETD out and replace it with another combat gauze. I will say I think your pouch is slightly larger than my fanny though. Did you also double up on chest seals?

Also do you fit both cats in there too?

i kinda don't like the design of it considering that having a tiny 1" buckle on your ifak is kinda meh

Hi
I’m looking to add a pair of 6x6 side plates to my kit. I miss the secure all-around feeling I had back when I wore an IOTV everyday.
I have full PAI lvl III+ soft armor all around in a KDH ATPC with LVL 4 standalone plates front and back.
If I wanted to add some cheap 6”x6” side plates, would some steel plates do ok with the LVL3+ soft armor backing? If not, are there any good deals for something else? Since this mostly sits in the closet, I don’t mind if it’s slightly heavier, especially since I have pretty good lightweight front and back plates. Having steel plates without expiration date is one less thing I will have to replace.
Any input is appreciated.

I used a Camelback Delta5 overseas. It was very high quality. I Just slipped it on over my IOTV and gunners restraint harness. Worked great.

That actually looks like a great option, to include hydration like that. Thanks, I'll do some research and see if it's a viable option!

For those of you with hams, what antennas do you use? I really want something foldable like the prc152 but cant find one for either my baofeng or yaesu.

Cheers bud! Good luck in your vest quest

I had a folding one for my Harris laced into my back vest molle next to my hydration carrier, then used a short cable run to my radio pouch to connect with adapters. When we needed to talk far, I would just have my buddy unfold it and have it stick up from my back above my head. I would guess A similar set up would allow you to adapt to what ever your ham antenna threads are.

Not exactly how I did it, but this picture I found kind of shows the idea. Some guys would strip a piece of antenna cable and weave the exposed inner core all over their vest to act like some sort of antenna man. It typically did not work very well at all, But you might be able to get it to work if you can figure out your wavelengths and such.

I recall in a video GT mentioning asking your medic if it was okay to take anti-inflammatories, what was the reason for this?

That looks good, i really am interested in their folding antenna.
>Idk the name but it folds and the only YouTube vids I can find on it are airsofters making fake ones out of tape measures

I think a folding antenna would be ideal for backpacking and larping

Shiiet first time ive seen evidence of a aor2 jpc. Aor1 jpcs go for 5000 on eBay and there's one multicam tropic 2.0 that I've seen.

Theoretically interfering with natural healing processes. Tylenol 650 + ibuprofen 800 every 6 hours as needed for pain up to 24 hours post injury is fine if you're staying combat-effective.

Always defer to medical personnel present if you find yourself in such a situation.

My IT band has been bugging me recently, would you see any issue with taking naproxen the morning before a long hike in gear, and the night after as needed?

I made a ground plane disk with radials for my HT antenna. When I need to throw some distance:
>pull antenna from HT
>add coax cable to HT
>plug coax cable onto ground plane
>plug HT antenna onto ground plane
>stick the GP antenna up in a tree
>sit at the base of the tree and do my thing

kill yourself

so I just got babies first NV and looking for ir laser should I get a dbal or peq?

if I could get my hands on a mil peq I’d lean that way but pleb civ models seems to say dbal is “better”

Attached: 43220795-7F20-4756-852C-11F231082205.jpg (4032x3024, 2.59M)

But why user? Although it is tempting.

If you have budget to burn civvy mawl > civvy dbal
Full power is nice to have if at all possible and I wouldnt turn down a full power PEQ or DBAL for the most part.

If youre shoestring budget you could go vodka box

Not having access to the mil lasers, I bought an OTAL and have my illumination separate. I am, for the most part, happy with it.

God damn it ordered from SKD tactical on Wednesday of last week and they only just shipped my order today. Was hoping to use the new sling and IFAK pouch for my upcoming 4 day LARP.

Attached: CampingSetup.jpg (3036x3652, 3.47M)

I'm about to go on a course, I need a good sling that comes in black and isn't too flashy. I was thinking the Magpul PLS because it's $20. Anyone have experience with it?

It’s outdated because I just killed it

Steel is heavier but not by much, get Lv III+ with some IIIA backers.

It was a 4th of July sale, what do you expect? Shipping times are always extended due to the amount of orders

Meant RLS*

What is, in your opinion better for regular infantry?
A ballistic Vest or a simple plate carrier?
>pic highly related.

Here's the problem, in the war we're fighting now small arms and concussive blasts are the primary killers, in a conventional war fragmentation is the leading cause of injury and death.
>COIN/Civil Unrest
Plate carrier, and my opinion is that steel offers superior protection. Ceramic is used due to weight, but as a civilian replacing a plate whenever it's shot or you fall on it is not possible. Every time I've seen someone get shot is by multiple rounds, snipers just completely avoid shooting the armor all together.
>WW3
Artillery, Mortars, and Air strikes are the killers here.

fuck off

>steel offers superior protection
lmao ceramics don't break when you fall and ceramics are also multi hit.

Neither, a plate carrier with soft armor inserts.

Just soft armor or plates backed by soft armor?

Action?

The latter

ok retard

Everything you see there fits in the dangler. I have an elastic band across the back that keeps everything vertical

depends on the enviroment and what you're doing, unit SOP and what you need to carry.

Which in what Environment?
I'd think that a Plate Carrier would be better for mountainous terrain, when Ease of movement is more important, while a Vest is better for Flatlands and Guarding Duty?
