Looking for a matching hook panel

I need one of these (preferably the wider one) that is HOOK sided. All the ones I can find are loop sided. TIA!

We don't need no stinkin sights

Protective detail for the president of Haiti going to visit a bank

Easter egg in the back there, someone's rocking an M14 (could be M1? Pretty sure M14)

Regardless, I would take them over Trump's detail 🤷

Is the feldschuh as good as they say?

If not, what is the better alternative to this style of boot?

First pair of tac gloves

Im new to all this and making my first kit so apologies if this is a dumb question. I’ve seen people attach their gloves to their belt and thought that would be a cool idea. I bought some 5.11 tactical gloves for 45aud and found these loops around the wrist. Are these suitable to attach loops so I can put my gloves on my molle belt? If so, where would I get these loops? Sorry again if this is dumb

Loading on open bolt vs closed bolt?

Individual seems to think loading a magazine into an AR on a closed bolt put unnecessary stress on the bolt carrier. Also believes in downloading magazine by two or more. Seems like fuddlore to me, thoughts?

Silly Question...

Has anyone been silly enough to put a Holosun thermal in front of an acog like a clip on? I think you can turn off both reticles in the holosun.

Alternative materials for Plate Carriers and Other Tatical Soft goods

Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to start a discussion on what could be new materials for tactical soft goods. There's been a lot of advances in material science on fabrics and I was wondering what could be on the horizon for tactical gear?

Obviously nylon and nomex is currently king, but could there be use of other materials like Dyneema, Aramid Fibers, Laminates, Metal infused foams, etc.

This all spurred after watching a video on a Marine Force Recon video and all the specialized gear they used. They obviously have a lot of consideration because of ocean environment and Nylon absorbs water and gets heavy.

Let me know what you nerds out there think.

Moto helmets viable?

Most helmets used for dirtbike riding cover mostly everything but the face and spray painting and cloth stripping the tops to cover head shapes would work fine for something like airsoft, how would it work in an actual scenario? I’m fully aware it’s not stopping any rounds but is it at least worth wearing if you don’t have anything else?

Hot climate long sleeves and pants recommendations?

When I’m not in my mother’s basement I’m typically in climates where my left nut sticks to my left leg…

Links to your favorite long sleeve shirts and light weight pants for sun protection and cover up from the sun, bugs, and the elements?

Prefer it not to be tacticool that can be worn in public and not stick out like a sore thumb.

Applications would be- Under plate carrier Under chest rig 90+ degrees for 8 hours Touching grass

PFA: that one time I left the house (I know this has been posted many times over the years but companies have new product lines and opinions change)
