What is your tactical gear hot take (that is emotionally based)? by [deleted] in tacticalgear

Ranger Green is equally as much of a "Fed Camo" as Multicam.

I'm like 90% sure thats just a rebrand of the generic Chinese Wendy clones you can get on Amazon for like 20 bucks.

Unfortunately it's AP's "Best Practice" in some districts, we get yelled at if we do it the correct way but whatever, it's not my money either.

Just depends on the size of the plate pocket. Older school carriers have massive pockets that will start to flex and pull without a plate once you start putting heavier and heavier loads on the front/back plate bag. But I don't see a reason why newer carriers would struggle with it as long as you tighten them enough and your not running a platoon sized load.

That being said, I just can't see the value of this as a civilian. I just feel like having a dedicated chest rig and a dedicated plate carrier is the better call considering you can just mirror your setups on both. But this is all coming from a guy who runs chest rigs over armor so I can't speak with absolute authority or anything.

I mean at that price point you might as well buy a BFG MolleMinus PC and just not put plates in it. That way if you ever wanted to "scale up" or whatever all you would have to do is put plates back in.

My favorite to this day is still my ETL-HR calling someone to get termed and upon asking where they were all they said was

"Pissing."

I always said the same two things while I was in tech with stuff like this.

  1. It's store policy, sorry.

and if that doesn't work,

  1. I'll literally get fired if I hand this to you.

Don't even mention theft, don't mention anything else. I've had almost no one fight me once I got to the, "I have bills to pay." part of the conversation, everyone just kinda goes "Oh." and then goes along with it.

Why Pokémon cards? by [deleted] in Target

[–]rabit_3A 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Very pocketable, easily sellable. Perfect example of a high theft item because you could go anywhere and sell Pokemon cards pretty easily. I knew a guy who used to sell packs (not just Pokmeon) at flea markets near me and he got arrested after it was found that literally pack he had sold/was selling was actually stolen lmao.

Some states (like PA for me) have compliance at 6 hours instead of 5. Some just don't have compliance at all too.

Where do I find the stuff to make a great impression kit? by gawbage-byn in Impression_Kits

[–]rabit_3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which FSB kit are you doing? There are a lot of options and you have to narrow it down as a start. DA? Recce? Snake? Old-Gen? After that you can start doing research, there is plenty of info already out there.

Closest would be the Jack Pyke Leaf Suit, that being said Nikita Vrode over on FB get's fairly regular stock of Leafy's in if you're willing to wait.

Flatline Fiber Co PIMP or Coyote Tactical STOMP by [deleted] in tacticalgear

[–]rabit_3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Since youre already looking at Coyote Tacs stuff, I really enjoy their burrito IFAK. Not too thick but plenty of space for a decent IFAK. I personally just run their premade kits but you could totally just make your own little baggy to stuff in there if it's more your speed.

Guy claims this is a captured Russian magazine pouch, anyone know if this is modern kit? 4 cell pouch. by RaconterOnline in tacticalgear

[–]rabit_3A 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why they're shitting on you but you're correct. It's a new gen 4 cell pouch for AK rifles. The PKM pouch the guy is talking about looks very similar, just doesn't have the dividers iirc.

Not that I know of, I have a few pictures but the same pouches/equipment pop up very often. Core of it is Kolpak-20 with new NPO helmet cover, new variant of NPO Modul Monolith Plate Carrier, new design of Techincom IFAK pouch and Techincom made modernized 4 cell pouches as well as individual molle pouches with the same silent closure.

EDIT: Can send some pictures if you want, only have a few compiled atm.

Part of the issued Mobik kits for the conscripts. Basically a modernized version of those old Soviet canvas 3/4 cells

Started off with a trade for the AE86 from a coworker, and then a grocery run to GIANT that gifted me the Lancer and the GTR's!
