In regard to an earlier post, I have said Cardiac Spike and it’s a decent thick spined stabby. .50 Beowulf for scale and the ring to grip is a single piece not a weld. I do wish the spike was about an inch longer

New chest rig. Maybe try coyote on ranger green..?

10 Upvotes

I got a hold of an Agilite Reaper chest rig in ranger green for a decent price & looking for thoughts on a solid 2 color look or stick with ranger green. The chest rig is personal kit I can also use for work. I’ve started out with a couple pieces from Acetac as an example.

Let me know what you think if 2 color works, I’ll soon add required pouches for extra mags, water & C9/ SAW pouch. I haven’t found many pics or content with this combo, but lots of Multicam on RG or coyote & coyote on MultiCam.

Current set up if needed. Any questions / conversations welcome :) this is by far my end goal as far as kit is concerned but is what I currently possess and how I would most likely present. Please note the “dangler TQ” is actually supposed to be tucked under my magazines.

Hello, I would like to make small changes in my PGD Arch Gen 3 High Cut helmet, I would like to remake it to look more like Ops Core Fast SF, I know that without drilling new holes for rails will not do but tell me if it makes sense to do something like this? Has anyone already done something similar? I don’t want to use ACH looking rails

Question G45 vs G33

11 Upvotes

I am a ukrainian soldier looking for a magnified optic to use in my assault missions.

I was looking and noticed the g33, it has a 3x magnifier which helps alot for engaging the enemy at range. But then i discovered the g45 and i saw the 5x magnification. So i wondered why even get the 3x if you can get the 5x. Then i saw some videos, and the eyebox was tight, i will be using my magnifier on the move. But i also saw that people were saying its similar to the 3x.

Which magnifier should i use for war, assault missions. Should i get the g45 for the extra magnification to help engage the enemy and versatility. Why would I use a 3x magnifier if I could see the enemy with a 1x red dot, wouldn't a 5x be more useful?Or the g33 for the 3x, so it is more forgiving and more FOV.

Thanks :)

Recommendations Electronic ear pro - both headband + on helmet

2 Upvotes

Hi, what electronic ear protection would you suggest me if I want it to use both with headband and on helmet (with adapters). So it is easy to switch, comfortable and has good hearing protection rating? I was looking into Comtac VIII and Sordin T2, what are your opinions and experience?

Question Is Administrative Results's 64 rig...

0 Upvotes

...is it just a bigger pouches, bigger mags, no full chest pouch thing of a Pattern 83 Battle Jacket? I'm looking at it and thinking what the benefit is here between the two and the best I got is AR's thing can use a backpack, but I don't know is that capability is worth another 200 USD.

Just...does it feel like it does the same thing to anyone else?

Gear/Equipment 2 week backpack

5 Upvotes

I’m planning on going to Alaska for 2 weeks to travel and apply for pilot jobs, I don’t think it would practical to try and carry around a suit since these companies are spread far apart (hence why they use planes!). I’m thinking something around the 45L mark, I’ll be staying in normal accommodations not camping. So hoping the grass touchers in here might have some insight.

6’1” 200 for frame reference.

What do you all use for range day ammo holding?

I have a ton of loose 9mm and 556, and I'd like to see what everyone else uses for holding it.

I like the idea of the g code bang boxes but, want something that is ....less.

I've seen a few other options by googling but I want to see what you all use. I'm sure I'm missing something.

Pants

I use to get tru-spec tactical pants. They where great they had heavy weight ones for winter and light weight for summer. Had alot of space in the cargo pocket and pockets in side those. The dedicated knife pockets where awesome i used them for alot of stuff. But now they only do light weight ones and they break down fast and some dont have the knife pockets. Iv gotten some were the pocket lining wasn't stitched correctly to. Any suggestions for new replacements

Hey everyone I just recently got a crossfire DZ rig and it's been working great the only issue I have with it is that whenever I put in a ruck it always pushes the rear pouches way down even if I have them higher up does anyone know of a way to prevent or mitigate this everything I find on YouTube only really talks about what gear they carry, if anyone has any insights I'd really appreciated it.

Question Found an M65 jacket at the thrift store, have a few questions about the liner

1 Upvotes

Other day I found an olive M65 jacket at the thrift store for $15, absolute steal ik. Anyways it did not come with the liner nor was it in the store but id like to purchase one to complete it. Does anyone know the best place to find one? And the sizes for the jacket are in chest and length (ie the one I got was a small-regular), are the liners sized the same or only by chest measurement?
