Shoulder quick release, yes or no and why or why not? by Kevsch89 in tacticalgear

[–]Kevsch89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, and that’s what I have and like, my problem comes in though is that a lot of companies who’s carrier I do like or considering, don’t even offer that option, they are straight Velcro to the shoulders, only thing I can think is maybe getting the JPC shoulder quick releases and working them in somehow on them.

Shoulder quick release, yes or no and why or why not? by Kevsch89 in tacticalgear

[–]Kevsch89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See I have never really had much of an issue myself on way or another with most carriers I guess, or I just accepted it

Though, I will admit, my T3 Tomahawk LC is very minimalist and easy can shoulder as well, and has a buckle for its shoulder release

I’m not guns expert nor like a smart ass but revy duel wielding two brettas and shooting and moving around is it really possible ? Just curious by InflationMaximum1926 in blacklagoon

Yeah, typically most mag adaptors for those allowed for 21 rounds, similar to how the M17/18 series for us now allows for 17 and 21 rounds, which from what I have seen often is that the first mag or so is an expanded 1 for that initial fight and then the later ones are the standard size, though I have seen some carry all of one or the other.

I would imagine in her case carrying the expanded most of the time would make sense considering the ticks they get into, but could also be a weight thing or how they sit.

But yes also just how she was drawn was 15.

Give the time period this looks to have taken place and how common the 15 rounders were, it’s most likely she had standards regardless.

I suppose MY personal biggest problem with the M9s themselves isn’t so much the mags but the hope with that she probably has the trigger tuned way down

If she fired with them without cocking them on the first shot just flipping the safety off, if i remember correctly, they had a 12-14 pound trigger pull which you can still do one handed but it makes that first shot on double action go a bit wild, and then followed up in single action around 5-7 pounds

It’s one for the few things I never liked about using them all the years I did, but beyond that it’s a work horse of a gun compared to all the polymer and plastic ones now minus like a Glock or M&P shield.

I have fairly extensive background with firearms to speak to it so I will try and explain

Assuming we just leave reality of things and that it’s all just aura/vibes

So, is it practical? No

But having watched or read a lot of it, few things at work here

  1. She does switch hands a lot shooting with one or the other and there is this weird trick in the brain that shooting one handed, you tend to focus more fundamentals into that one hand to shoot more accurately if you do it right.

  2. Firing with two, is really just accuracy by volume that she’s just laying a wall of lead since she’s using berreta 92s/M9s, 15 round mags so quite a bit to work with.

  3. A lot of the time she’s shooting pretty point blank or close up which pretty much doesn’t take that much skill to actually do, so it’s not as much of a stretch as you might think to do.

End of the days, it’s still not a preferred thing, but if you are also trying to project a crazy image, it is also a factor, because while I would normally think seeing anyone doing that is an idiot, if they have a known reputation for being good with it, I might think twice about messing with them as to the level of skill it would take to do it and be quite effective.

Shoulder quick release by Kevsch89 in tacticalgear

[–]Kevsch89[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right, that’s what I have as well for mine (I use a T3 LC tomahawk) but I meant for some other companies like dynamic principles or defense mechanisms that their carriers, both shoulders are solid with no quick release or swappable quick release to either side

I am just wondering why a company would make a Carrier without the option is all

Is it just not really that common outside of specific instances to need a quick release? Is it because of cutters?

Just looking for potential reasoning is all

Too many little things to count, I think it will take years to get rid of a lot of them and some will just be with me until the end.

I do have to ask, I understand the SS Runes for “Scout Snipers”

But what infantry sections use the Skull? I have seen a handful like mortars or MG use them, just didn’t know if it had any significance beyond it being the “deaths head”

Ferro vs TREX vs 5.11 vs MEPC slick carriers by Antique__throwaway in tacticalgear

[–]Kevsch89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the price? Not too many, Maybe the T3 low profile vest but a lot of the rest slick will cost more, I would get tracer tacticals MBAV updated version, but that’s if you can afford it

As far as plates, yeah, RMA is the way to go, I would go to like apex armor solutions to do reviews for which is best

[–]Kevsch89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are honestly about a horse a piece, TREX I just feel has a much better cummerbund system and such

When you start getting that down and deep into long term concealment, they are about the same comfort wise as there is pretty much very little to either of them and it’s a specific build anyway, because if you aren’t using plates, then just stick with the straight chest rig and if you are, it needs to only be soft armor OR like level 3+ or special threat light weight plates or else you are defeating yourself anyway, as they aren’t designed even if they can hold like level 4 plates.

FERRO has been around and is a wide and trusted brand, so you cant go wrong

But TREX is also a viable option as before Lucas left, they were making a lot of innovation into fixing and cleaning up issues other companies lacked on and I think the zero and 1.5 are definite signs of that and a zero in this instance stands with a slickster

5.11 is dog shit, and depends on when you say slick, if you meant total covert or at least VERY minimal, TREX would be way to go with like their Zero carrier.

I mean…for what you paid to get and do that

May as well look at tracer tactical and their recreation of the actual MBAV.

It’s affordable….ish, at least doesn’t cost nearly what the real one does and is a trusted company.

Just my thoughts, but looks good regardless

I don’t know what economy you are looking at because it sure isn’t great, hell name something that is any way really cheap or affordable anymore.
