Hey ya'll.

Military psychologist here contemplating making a 'weighted woobie' for those serving/veteran personnel who might get a kick/comfort out of a weighted variety for theraputic + nostalgic purposes. Seeking input. Does anyone think this idea has legs? If so please comment or upvote and I'll bang out a prototype. Intent to donate a fair amount of the profits to veterans charities if the idea goes well as this is more to scratch my entrepreneurial itch than anything. Thanks heaps!

I play airsoft and wanna make a kit based around this kind of chest rig. It looks amazing and I wanna do a proper build to do it justice. What kind of military organization would use this/has used this kind of rig? Thank you to any and all answers :)

So after doing a bunch of reading and soul searching I picked up a bunch of ACU MOLLE II stuff. It’s still cheap, plentiful and incredibly customizable and all of that ticks every box. It helps that to me it’s really quite comfortable.

One of the pouches I grabbed was an IFAK pouch and insert. I was wondering if anyone has photos of a set up insert. I daily carry a stripped down trauma/stop the bleed kit anyway but wanted a dedicated kit because a) redundancy is awesome and b) this is going to be part of a lightweight (my summer camping rig weighs in at 45lbs) woods set up for overnights and hunting. I do have a more rounded out first aid kit I’ll also pack but that the moment I’m turning this insert over in my head trying to figure out an optimal configuration. I tried googling images but without clear labels, it can be tough to tell what’s where.

As the title says. I'm having decision paralysis between the two; both would set me up well with exercises and travelling, both brands are highly recommended, but I've never had either. I know which MOLLE pouches I'd like to fit them with for various jobs.

I understand Savotta probably wins on the durability front and I like the MOLLE layout, but I love the Eberlestock front open option which will be a huge help with kit.

What are r/MilitaryGear's thoughts on these two rucksacks specifically? Most other packs I've considered don't come close in terms of layout or functionality, or are prohibitively expensive.

I’m looking to invest in some tatical gear for just in case if shit hits the fan with the current events going on in the political world. but I have no idea where to look or even begin. I was looking at the agilite k19 plate carriers. But I wanna know what you guys would recommend such as helmets, plate carriers, backpacks, etc and anything I would need to know. Any advice and help would be more than appreciated. Thank you for your time
