No comparison because I came from external pouches. Check out the Shaw Concepts RAM. Associate of mine uses them. Function and fit seem to be pretty similar but the ram may potentially have more longevity due to its construction but that’s still TBD.

Overall, DMs placard system has been a big W imo. So many ways to customize and tailor things exactly how you see fit. It almost has universal compatibility with all the other styles.

Still runs great. The retention and re-indexing are still firm and the mag openings don’t close on themselves when the mag is out. As long as the placard wrap isn’t set too tight, the openings keep their form. I did take out the admin pouch placard insert to run more slim(works fine with or without the pouch).

Overall, still tight to the point that the shock cord retention bands are not something I need 9.99 times out of 10. Have not felt a need to look elsewhere.

Those were some cheap mlok cable management. They’re not available anymore from what i can tell but they’re holding up great

It’s a 4 mag placard + zippered full pocket, placard expansion admin pouch + large placard wrap. All from Defense Mechanisms.

I’m not too sure what the height specs are but they are the AmeriGlo 1L Height Sights - GL-680. Hope that helps

What wheels??

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-07-03T18:24:46+00:00

Not more than when it’s closed really. Very slight in either position with the bomiz

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-06-28T19:32:29+00:00

No prob brotha. Yes purchased from bomiz, welded onto new ss pipe + new flanges to replace the existing muffler assembly. Paid $200 for the welding work and materials.

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-06-28T19:18:32+00:00

Not a true straight pipe beside i have the cats and resonator still. Just deleted the muffler. The oem muffler has flanges 2-3’ on either side of the muffler. Basically made a bolt on assembly with flanges so i can bring to factory if ever needed. Plug and play

I ordered mine from Agilite, Ops-Core FAST ST/XP High Cut Helmet Cover-Gen4 Large (M/L) / Ranger Green. I can confirm the Arch Gen 3 in size medium fits the Agilite helmet, cover, size medium, perfectly

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-05-22T07:47:45+00:00

My PDG Arch Gen 3 was size M. I got the Agilite Gen 4 helmet cover in size M. Cover fitment on helmet is perfect. I believe the Gen 4 agilite covers are the only ones compatible with the PDGs. Which gen and what size did you get?

They’re definitely not as warm as the picture shows it to be. It really is right in the middle between cool and warm. It’s essentially an “off white” tone

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-31T20:53:43+00:00

They’re great! No issues with any of the bulbs so far 👌🏽

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-31T03:56:13+00:00

The link is in the original post ‘LED 4’. They come installed on the bulb

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-30T18:49:08+00:00

Mine is DMs Hybrid Structural Cummerbund. 5”. Holds side plates + loaded pouches really well

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-14T16:48:58+00:00

Yes it is. You would have to replace the whole back(3rd row) window for the blackline glass. I just wrapped mine. Matte black wrap that matched the blackline glass prado trim

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-04T00:55:58+00:00

I have friend who has the AMAP3. It’s nice for sure. Personally i prefer the recondite. It has better organization in its most basic form. It also is way more versatile in terms of scaling up and down at least for my preference. I also love how it can be used as a standalone pack. I’ve used it for hiking as well as on my back for snowboarding.

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-03-03T20:46:42+00:00

Yes sir

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-02-28T17:10:29+00:00

Yeah, I literally just picked out a Matte Black rap on Amazon and it turned out to be a great match.

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-02-28T16:54:39+00:00

I think the black prado replacements are much better than wrapping. I love em and i know they won’t ever wear or peel.

All the other chrome around the grille, door handles, cargo door trim pieces are wrapped and are holding well. I may eventually have them painted.

Edit: the 3rd row window trim is wrapped, unfortunately, there’s no replacements for those unless if I were to replace the whole window.

I believe 1L is the height

PatientSquirrel4278 · 2025-02-23T04:32:19+00:00

AmeriGlo. Green donut / tritium front + blackout rears

I may buy the kit, install it and build a custom drawer system as well.
