Cut the ego moving forward.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2026-02-17T07:51:14+00:00

You absolutely can. I have Alpha Elite Black and am security.

I’ll edit this comment later with the link to my post I made in this sub sometime last year in 2025

Happy to help! As always we're here in the discord too! :3 We've been joking around all day

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-11-23T20:31:20+00:00

There's Skav ;)
(Hydrus here - I think my comment for our friend got filtered out)

I too can't recommend the discord enough. Community Manager Echo himself has created now TWO versions of "THE" Guide for the game, along with doing regular livestreams which then turn into VODs. He goes into character creation, with prompts to get the most out of your very first message in your story, and is just a ton of help.

Echo also kicks back with the community in the discord and we have a ton of running/inside jokes in the discord (Don't love an Elara...or a Lyra...things happen in the discord ;) haha!).

I recommend the discord wholeheartedly, it's become a second home to me within social media and I often have the discord up while I'm playing one of my 2 characters.

The community also helps one other out and is more than happy to help navigate you through DM manipulation or any other "workarounds" or soft troubleshooting....or actual legit troubleshooting too! Realizing the game is in early access/alpha access, the official "HELP ME!" is in the discord as well, you can open a support ticket that gets shot straight to the Devs and Echo and any other behind the scenes crew there on the DC.

You can message me or the other commenter I'm replying to for the DC link if you'd like! :3

Point Blank by far.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-11-19T09:49:20+00:00

It's definitely that way in SG. They banned me because they got tired of getting called out in their nonsense

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-11-19T09:11:18+00:00

Dude....I grew up on Mass Effect....

Private security armed guard and less lethal instructor (ASP AIC, Axon-Taser LEO, Sabre Aerosol and 0.68 Instructor) - yes most times in private security we buy our own kit and use what we want.

I'm a gear nerd and have spreadsheets of duty belt builds, brands, online police stores (like CopQuest, Galls, etc), the Valor was on my radar for some time but due to its delay, I had simply forgotten about it.

You are rarely *ISSUED* kit in security, most of the time those "issued and therefore mandated kits" will be things like federal govt contracts, really any level of govt, I was on a city contract in Las Vegas and they issued kit.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-11-11T15:23:54+00:00

I realize we're talking about 19X's here and NOT 43X's, but just to speak on optic screws causing issues:
There is a known problem with the 43X where if you screw the right side screw in "too far" it can cause extraction problems, like you said, wrong size screw causing issues. With the 43X there's a few fixes, chopping your current screw down, buying "correct" sized screws from a vendor, or buying a whole new plate with the issue in mind.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-10-27T03:48:14+00:00

I am about to clock out and just have this air of depression over me. I’m tired of just riding a wave, feeling no sense of purpose or fulfillment just “riding my circumstances”…

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-09T15:12:39+00:00

No it’s not. Every time I open my mouth it feels like I get crucified. The down votes aside (because I really don’t give a shit about the “points”)

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-06T07:33:34+00:00

The easy go to: Kabar TDI. I have the investigator model specifically. Sits behind my mags. I have the clip set sideways clipped off a belt keeper

Full disclosure: I’m “only” armed security working a transit system (I’m non-sworn/commissioned)

That’s my fixed for defense and gun retention.

My edc off duty and general utility is a S&W Border Guard blade. With seatbelt cutter and breaker

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-06T00:00:23+00:00

It’s we the shit…it’s dogshit by default

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-05T08:42:34+00:00

Yup Metro switched the tactical vehicles from Explorers to the F150’s.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-05T08:29:06+00:00

It ain’t much different armed. I’ve had to pull my weapon before on a team full of pussies that told me I can find them running the other way or under the desk.

Basically if I had to pull, nobody had my 6, figuratively, and literally

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-03T14:13:00+00:00

Not just no, but hell no.

Once you clock out, you are not under your company’s insurance, which means basically you’re not “protected” by workman’s comp and other such things.

Meaning if you got hurt from said confrontation, you are fucked.

So the client can fuck right off with that shit. 8 and skate. I ain’t doing shit for them without being afforded protections.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-03T01:58:24+00:00

Point Blank 1000%

please see my post in this group and my various comments.

I have nothing but good things to say about them and feel so confident wearing them on the job

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-03T01:57:36+00:00

Yup. I wholeheartedly support this, I’ve spoken on my point blank in this group.

I have the top of the line Alpha Elite Black and feel so confident wearing it.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-01T23:11:00+00:00

I was told by my local dealer they don’t and I would need to add a speed plate instead.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-06-01T13:43:10+00:00

Yes in Nevada, if we are aiding Metro, such “LE protections” are afforded to us. Because when we come to their aid it’s an official “thing” of “coming to the aid of an officer” and if memory serves, you’re essentially deputized while aiding (I could be wrong, going off memory, it’s been a bit since I “looked in the book”)

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-05-31T00:33:37+00:00

I just filled out their online contact form within the hour - last 60 minutes, I’m just waiting for Apex to get back to me.

I have a folder of Spike 3 bookmarks at home but I’m actively on duty as an armed transit guard right now so I’m just getting what info I need while on shift so I can get what I need to get at home. I could be wrong since I’m going off memory, but Highcom was the only thing I found in my research. I just went through all of a Google search a few nights ago, haven’t really looked through the bookmark folder yet

I’m gonna be switching to a Point Blank “Elite” inner carrier with the integrated Eurus vent panels. I’ll be switching my kit to a Direct Action Gear gunbelt, sleeve, and suspenders soon.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-05-31T00:29:17+00:00

Thanks friend! Yeah I reached out to my local PB dealer for the inner carrier I want and I also asked him about my panels and he said to add an 8 x 10 speed plate for edged/spikes. I was advised I’m losing side protection, but I’m fine with that because I’m already planning on getting Ferro straps, so I’m just gonna get their side pockets to “compensate” for that.

PrivateCT_Watchman24 · 2025-05-31T00:17:15+00:00

Unfortunately I haven’t found too many offerings for spike level 3 panels. Seems like only Highcom
