He looks so cool

I’m looking to purchase my first plate carrier. I’ve done a lot of researching for a year now. I’ve narrowed it down to these two plate carriers for my budget. Any opinions on one over the other and why? Thanks.

Hey, I’m looking to get a PC and I’ve been recommended both the Agilite PC and the MEPC. Anyone have either/any recommendations?

Hey!

I’ve got an Ops Core AMP with the U174 Mono Binaural downlead cable, connected to a U94 PTT and my radio. Problem is, I’m not hearing any audio, and my mic won’t transmit. The PTT seems to work since it lights up when I press it, but no one can hear me.

Any idea how I can fix this?

Thanks!

They are Europe based, have some interesting designs, they make pouches/gear in Multicam tropic which I like. Anybody else try them out? How is the quality? I want to check out their molle eye protection sleeve, and some various GP pockets. Stuff is not cheap thus asking ahead before I buy. Thanks.

I run an AK and was looking into getting a lbe harness, did some digging and found I have two choices a smersh rig or a alice kit. But as a poor I must make a careful choice on which to get. My question is which would be cheaper.

I got some hate on my last paint job. I took notes and I’m back. Painted my backup/girlfriends rifle to try out some designs with painters tape. Roast me. It does well in the valley I live in but probably not higher up in the mountains

Hey everyone,

I am currently serving as a crewman on a Merkava tank. For the past year, I've been using the issued Nomex crewman overall from the U.S. Army. Don't get me wrong—it's a great overall, even in hot conditions, but after every mission or raid, I find myself needing to sew new and old holes.

Some units in the IDF, either through donations or purchases, have acquired tactical sets. Some are made of Nomex, but most are from other fire-resistant materials (not including the AliExpress shirts…). I've spoken with crew members from those units, and they have mixed reviews about the sets.

So, I’d like to hear if any of you have a recommendation for a set made from FR materials or even Nomex (despite the prices).

Thanks!

Hello I’m in the Canadian armed forces and looking to get the Jay jays commander webbing and looking for opinions on it and if your selling it for a little cheaper hmu as well

Curious as to what, if any, knives y'all run on your kit. I have a typical 2" folding knife as part of my EDC, but I'm wondering if it's common to run anything different, or larger, on your vest or belt.

I still have a S&W Search and Rescue 6" fixed blade that I picked up about 10 years ago - because college me thought it was cool - and I've never had a use for it. Now that I'm getting serious about building out a kit, it still seems to be too large and cumbersome to put on a battle belt or plate carrier.

Is it practical to run a fixed blade, or is it just tactiCOOL?

The cumberbund is dogshit anyone have a recommendation for replacement? If it’s gonna change the buckle system in the front it can’t be irreversible and I’ll probably need some instruction on doing so.

Kelly green is fine, marigold turns it tan, and so far tan, taupe, and coco brown all left purple tints on the stuff I dyed.

So working on a project idea and was wondering the tthread pitch of a m228 prapractice fuze.
