Do Eagle SPC hold up to modern Plate carriers?
Because the LBT 6094s ain't cutting it for me.
I've been looking at
mayflower APC & velocity systems SCARAB Light
I'm up for any recommendations
>>30165628
There are comfier, lighter, feature packed (swift clips, 6/12, tubes, intergral pouches) and cheaper plate carriers abound. But the eagle is still damn good
got around to buying a source patrol pack so I'm ditching my back mounted IFAK and hydration. adding a baofeng also.
>>30165668
I hear you. but I've heard enough people blow smoke up the PC's ass, that its got me intrigued enough to just see how much I hate it.
>>30165688
You could always drop some shit to your belt
I used to think I was gonna mounting everything on my plate carriers like I did on itovs, but pc's are too small and sit too high for that shit
>>30165693
Isn't it marine standard issue
>>30165725
>Isn't it marine standard issue
I thought they were rotating it out.
>>30165725
I need a good pack for camping/BoB anyways so I can always drop the pack and go lightweight if I want. I know /gq/ loves battle belts but I get annoyed by a bunch of stuff hanging off my belt.
>>30165748
It's the piece of equipment I use the most when I go innawoods. But I got dat ass and dem hips, so belt's fucking easy to carry
what if I run carrier+plates in plaid and jeans? Would I finally become hipsterman?
>>30165790
yeah I'm like a frog walking upright, no ass. probably why I don't like them much.
>>30165797
If that's a actually your planned kit, you need new mag pouches that'll take 7.62
And get something that's 4 molle collums wide or shorter to keep your two part cummerbund a two part cummerbund
And don't wear that fucking night cap. Get a damn bump helmet at the least, or splurge for ballistic.
>>30165810
nah, it's just an image I made for another thread.
Actually, I am now trying to find that pair of jeans in my pic, I can't seem to remember where I pulled it from.
how crye JPC, good for operating with heavy loads(MG4, MAG 58 ammo) and sometimes without plates? is it comfortable with heavy backpack?
>>30165797
I would recommend some clothes with actual camo. Get some woodland at least.
What does /k/ recommend as far as personal radios go?
>Looking for a good holster for a battle belt.
>Having trouble finding anything for an M&P9L and X-300U besides custom kydex.
Are there any universal holsters that are actually worth it?
Mayflower APC, just what is the story on side plates? Are they able to take hard side plates or does it only fit soft side armor?
What duty belt will work with HSP mag carriers? Also who makes a solid OWB holster for said belt?
>>30165868
What do y'all do all geared up? Not trolling, genuinely curious. I think it'd be cool to get into gear stuff, but I don't really have a use for most of it I feel like.
>>30165868
/k/ is gonna recommend a Baofeng because that's all their willing to spend on a radio. If you ever argue that there are better radios out there they note that they can buy 4 chink radios for the cost of a good HT. Apparently it's better to have four shitty broken radios than one good one. Google is your friend on this front. Try to find Ham guys who are tacticool/preppers rather than preppers/mall ninja who bought the cheapest Ham they could find on Amazon.
>>30165936
Not really. Custom kydex is gonna be the way to go.
>>30166012
Some of us use it at work.
Some are preparing for SHTF.
Most of us just think cool shit is cool.
Hell, I took some stuff I had laying around to a con last month.
>>30166012
I have some woods I can go in where no one will bother me, and I practice "practical" shooting. Prone, behind cover, reloads, shooting on the move, control my rate of fire, IMTs, shit like that, I'll also, just put it on, take pictures of it because it's cool, or at least I think gear is cool.
Its like all hobbies, it can be a cheap thing to do every now and then, it can suck away half of your paycheck and eat up your weekends. But that's on you.
>>30165868
>>30166013
While your statement about the Baofengs being shitty is true, does the average /k/ommando really need something super fancy? I know I don't. I just need something that can hook into a PTT and pick up standard radio frequencies. I use mine when camping for weather updates as well as an emergency way to contact someone in case someone gets hurt. That's vital especially when I go out innadesert for shooting stuff because cell phone signal is super spotty out there. That's not to say there aren't vastly superior alternatives out there. They're definitely are. I just don't need something better than a baofeng for what I do.
>>30166035
I am kinda tempted to go all kitted out to a con I have today. But I would have to unload all my mags and I don't have an airshit AR to take with me. They certainly won't let me take my actual AR in.

>>30166218
Something fancy? No.
But they aren't good radios and aren't near as durable as one of the big companies HTs. To play with they're fine, but don't pretend they're a serious use radio that's somehow better than say a Yaesu, which most of the poorfags here legitimately claim.
>>30166392
Relax champ, Like I said they're are much better options than the Baofeng out there. No one is arguing against you. It's just for my needs, and probably a lot of other /k/ommandos, the Baofeng suits their needs for a low cost. I've brought mine out camping and shooting dozens of times. I haven't had issues with it. To each their own. Just because we all use a cheap radio doesn't mean there aren't better ones out there.
>>30166376
too poorfag here for the crye i figured i could buy more sets of the airshit for the cost of a crye top and bottom.

The tear and patch were on the shirt when i got it from the MARSOC guy who had it issued to him, I then used it for like three years playing bbwars and didn't put any more holes in it. Now it just sits in my room as part of my collection, I have other crye shirts I use now

They'll usually just keep your rifle at the security desk if they're not comfortable with it.
Thing is, most people just assume that a kitted-out autist at a weeb convention is just an airsofter. I've been able to keep my rifle and ammo at some of these cons because the security guy doesn't give a shit, he just hands you a ziptie to run through the magazine well.
>>30166694
Holy shit, that's actually a little scary. I don't need some autist able to bring a fucking rifle to a con because security is too dumb to check it.
>>30165868
Baofeng is the basic one that is entry level. They are compatible with Kenwood audio gear. They are not waterproof or weatherproof. They are not terribly durable. They need a programming cable.
My local PD gives them to retirees who volunteer for traffic control and event support.
I have a Yaesu FT-260. Waterproof, weatherproof, durable, can be easily programmed without a computer, and I can lock keys, PTT, and dial in any combo. You need to mod them with a solder trace cut to open their frequency range for transmission.
I also have a baofeng UV5R5 as a backup or loaner. Between the two, I pick the Yaesu every time. The Yaesu does cost 4x as much but it is worth it.
Grab a baofeng to cut your teeth on the basics of radio use and upgrade everything else and then go for a better radio unless you need a waterproof radio. Think of the baofeng as your first boyfriend, a learning experience that can be a pain in the ass. A better radio is like your first long-term boyfriend, less of a pain in the ass because you are used to it, things are less complicated, and the relationship is more durable.

Preparing for SHTF.
I'm ex-Army, so having some good gear to go along with my weapons makes sense.
You never know when you might need it.
At the very least everyone should have a chest rig to carry their ammo, water, and medical stuff, that is if you think you might ever need to actually use a rifle.
gear for me and pupper

Obviously a dangerous attack dog that will maul babies in their cribs. There is no legitimate purpose for assault dogs on the streets of America. We need common sense dog control to keep these dogs out of the hands of top tier gear queers. We need regulations on how these dogs are kept and how much they fed.

No food either, this isn't for long treks through the wilderness obviously.
Think about it: what are the benefits of having everything in a good non-autistic looking backpack, rather than looking like a fucking airsoft player?

Would a less than $100 plate carrier be terrible quality? Do you have to pay $200-$300 for PC? I am not sure what I should look for.
>>30168604
With PC's you get what you pay for, $100 carriers like condor and whatnot are airsoft tier. The mayflower APC is legit and can be had for about $200. You can find a lot of different carriers on ebay.
>>30168604
ask yourself this, will you actually put plates in those carries and use them in a combat situation?
if no, does the quality really matter then?
>>30168653
If you're not gonna put plates in it, you might as well go for a chest rig with back panel
>>30168666
Do you have an example?
>>30168666
many proper chest rigs with back panels tend to be expensive tho.
I know some like to use a ballistic vest, and then have the chest rig over that, very good setup for versatile use.
>itt we post the same pictures we post every thread
>>30168816
anyone have any experience with these mag pouches? From Eagle Industries, seen them on some pics, but can't find much information about them.
Seems kinda cool, maybe a bit gimmicky, but still.
So if anyone is curious I ordered some pants from Tactical Distributor, they are their TD Carlos Ray Pants. They are pretty cheap range pants and come in some interesting colors.
From my pair I got I can say their fit is alot more baggy than what I was expected. I would recommend getting a size smaller, especially since they have spandex in them. The mag pockets work really well except for the left leg one which because of the baggy fit of the pants allow the mag to flop around like a flip hooker on shabu.
Overall I would get another pair but get them smaller (I usually wear 32x34 and would next time get 30x32)

Yeah buddy, I'm sure your basic first aid + CPR class covered wound packing, tourniquet application, needle decomp, and inserting a NPA. You don't know how much you don't know if you think any basic first aid and CPR class is going to help you.

The plunger is for deep wounds, also known as the kind that you dont want to monkey with if you arent a dedicated medic. The gauze will also be lighter and smaller.

Yup, I guess there's nothing more to be done. I'm laffin at how you try to act hard, when you can't even show us an IFAK or name any of the shit that's in it. Keeping your only med supplies buried inside a pack where nobody knows where they are is retarded. It's even funnier considering you don't know how to use it, so your best bet is hoping your buddies can treat you.

Unless you mean the cake pack
I like the cake pack. It's a great 45 liter for working with a plate carrier.
The shoulder straps are thin, and the waistbelt is built for hugging & distributing the weight.
The way the pack has been constructed it puts the weight on your hips and not your shoulder, while keeping a good center of gravity, when you're weighted down with kit.
with the wide base the more narrow top, it doesn't have the problem of pulling away from the body like some of the more top-heavy packs do.
I like the snowflake value of the SPOSN cake ,or tortilla, pack. but it's a great pack IMO.
>>30170498
not that different from your current training philosophy
>>30170527
needles are different than tq imo
>>30170093
except I'm not bitching, I told you to get training or at least use what you carry so you know how it works, that's what non-autists call advice

>>30170792
If you do joint stuff with US Marshals will it get confusing? Or does that not really matter?
>>30170792
Do you run soft armor in the sides?
>>30170836
Lol. It wouldn't matter, but I work with em often (a couple times a week usually, Fugitive stuff is also USMS' deal) and can honestly say I've never seen anyone else wear a 6094. One dude runs Ranger Green Banshee, one dude runs an OD CIRAS, one runs a Black Eagle Industries PC, and one guy runs a Coyote HSGI Weesatch. Idk why if supposedly this 6094 was contracted and bought for everyone, but when I showed it to some of them, they were like "nope, never seen em."
>>30170836
But it really wouldn't matter. We're all the same team. As long as no one gets shot, we're good.
>>30170869
Nah. Don't have any. Got a guy working on it for me though! SWAT guys get the fun stuff...
>>30170897
That's interesting. I've seen pics of it in use. Before I bought mine I did some looking to see if I could find the contract it was under and I think they got them through a third party vendor so it might have been a regional thing?
>>30170921
That sucks, although I guess it's personal preference. I have 3a panels in the sides and it adds stiffness making it easier to get on and off.
>>30170948
That's the main reason I'd want em. It doesn't really offer a TON of protection...
>>30170939
That's what I assumed. Everyone at "such and such" districts got them.
>>30170983
How comfortable is it running a radio in the cummerbund pouch? Is it likely to hot mic if you get prone or anything?
>>30170983
No they don't, and not really where protection is needed anyways, but they're comfy.
Plate carrier = 16 lbs = LOL

Support system to keep you resupplied and backed up = ...oh you forgot about that. Yeaaaa you need to carry all that faggot shit mentioned above around.
>>30170983
Also, do you run any medical supplies like a TQ or do you not worry about it?
>>30170148
Dude I should have asked the reverse: is the gauze superior? I've got 2 plunger kits and 2 packs of the powder in my cart right now, thinking I should also grab one of the celox-r gauze packs...
>>30171096
>Rucksack with food and other shit= 10-15 LBS
More like 20-30 depending on your shelter, sleep gear, extent of rations, need for water (desert ops)
>Support system to keep you resupplied and backed up
It becomes a lot more appealing to drop the plates in favor of additional ammo, guns too for that matte, once you accept you're pretty much on your own
I put my kit in the 40lb range. 20lbs between the loaded rifle and the chest rig alone. Not gonna run marathons with it on, but that's a comfortable rucking weight
>>30171099
Sometimes. I have an IFAK on a HSGI Battle Belt. Usually it stays in my truck and I just run my PC with a Safariland 6378 (Glock 21SF) and a Safariland 573 (mag & cuffs) for basic "jump out" kinda stuff. If this is a more planned out deal or a more high profile bad guy, I'll throw on my HSGI battle belt which has a drop leg for my Glock, my IFAK, a Tops Sky Marshal, a taser, and a couple sets of flex cuffs on it. I don't worry as much as I should on the "normal" deals where I do not have an IFAK because one of the other guys is a SWAT tac-medic with a whole lot of experience that typically hangs back for medical emergencies and is ready to render aid. I know worst case scenario could lead to everyone being down, and I guess it's bad that I'm getting complacent. I'll prolly throw it on my carrier before the next warrant service.
>>30171099
Sorry! Didn't answer as to what was in it. I keep a TQ, quick clot, a 4" bandage, chest seals, a pair of EMT scissors, and snoopy band aids for the lulz
>>30171397
And electrical tape. I love that shit.
>>30169334
Never stated I did. In fact, I would love to own all the things in that pic.

>ballistic
If you intend on getting shot in the head you need to reevaluate your role in any sort of armed conflict.
>>30171666
Nobody intends on getting shot, but shit happens to good people. By your logic we shouldn't bother with plates. Heck, we might as well not have spare mags, because we don't intend on missing.
>>30167924
The first man in line gets a rifle. The second, ammunition.

Awesome thanks for the reply. I didn't realize that you worked as a team and had a medic. That definitely simplifies things.
>>30172186
I love your setup, it's my goal
>>30172221
Meh, we don't really "work as a team" as much as we happen to have a tac medic who does the same job as me. But yeah, it is reassuring to have someone that knowledgeable in case of emergencies.

holy kek
gonna have to start calling you Black Costa
/k/ tell me, is it odd that when I see armed security or cops and they run their gear all strange or out of place that it bothers me? Like today I saw some cop running a drop leg holster almost down to his fucking knee. I almost asked him if he hated running when I walked by. Honestly, it sounds like my autism getting the better of me.
>>30174001

>>30168310
>consider getting the refund unless it stays warm where you live all year round
Aimpoints have thermal drift, too brah.
>>30174015
It triggers me as well.
The irony being they have legit purpose for using the gear but don't take the time to apply common sense to their setups.
Basically normies that buy tactical gear but they buy the stuff that makes them look like tryhards.
I need help
>>30172062
kek I wish
>>30173318
I really like your rifle. And your plate carrier.
I am building my first AR and am using the ACS-L stock and KMR-A 13". How do you like the magpul stock?
>>30174133
That's the funniest part. I was never in the military and don't use my gear for work and only own it because I thought it was cool and because I thought that maybe owning some gear and taking a few courses probably wasn't the worst idea. Meanwhile you have guys that actually use this shit for their jobs and shit and they're fucking clueless. If I had to rely on a piece of equipment to keep me alive you better believe I'd be super autistic about it being as functional as possible.
Poorfag here. Whats the best combo I could get for under $700?
>>30174257
love mine would buy again
bit heavy but DYEL
>>30174257
thanks anon.
I look for sturdiness and ergonomics in stocks, and in that regard the acs is my favorite. a little heavy but it balances out the shit I have hanging off the handguard.
KMR-A is the way to go.
>>30174362
>>30174335
thank you for the input. I impulse bought the ASC-L because it was part of a PSA LPK bundle for $120 so I said fuck it. Like I said it will be my first AR.
Aero Gen 2 Upper and Lower, 16' SS Noveske barrel, MOE grip, ACS-l, H2 buffer and KMR-A 13".
And yes Anon I lift, also work as a laborer.
>>30171666
Do you even exist in popular culture today? Getting a headshot is like every 14 year old and ganbangers wet dream. People going to be throwing steel at ur dome when there is bullets flying.
Does anybody have one of those IDF belt rig/load bearing rigs?
Are there other alternatives for something similar? I'm looking for something to move the weight down lower to be more comfortable in long dismounted patrols in non-urban areas.
Alice and molle belts don't cut it, not enough room on them, I wear size 31 pants.

I can't me the only one that thinks cops wearing camouflage is stupid as fuck.
>>30174189
You don't need 12 maga on your person. 6 is acceptable. Put those other 6 in a pack. Recommend putting the magazines on your rifle hand side away and using that area as a place for a GP pouch for a compass, multi tool, small cleaning kit, etc.

He's just emphasising his "sniper" status to the onlookers and media.
Probably will take him longer to take all the crap off then the stand off itself.
So everyone I've heard of says jeans are woefully inadequate pants for surviving/operating/innawoodsing.
What do you guys recommend?
>>30174413
Relating on this post. Can someone recommend me a battle belt. I have been debating getting a HSGI Slimgrip or an internal belt that uses belt loops and still holds my gear like the storm rider warlord system.
pls help!

>>30174938
Kuhl Revolvr pants.

Can anyone recommend some pants that are not baggy doe.

I've got some miscellaneous pairs of Columbia and North Face pants that I usually wear when innawoods.
My North Face pair are nice because they zip off at the knee for when its hot as balls here in Alabama.
I've got a pair of SOG pants that are super comfortable but the stitching is complete crap. I doubt they would hold up to serious usage.
LAPG sells some really inexpensive and decent quality pants as well, I'd look there if you want a pair or two that won't set you back $100
>>30175030
thanks bae
>>30175049
how much does a tailor cost? Never really thought about that.
>>30175095

it's likely he's using some of those double mags as a GP pouch. Besides, even if they were 12 fully loaded mags, once he put them on he'd probably realize how fucking stupid that was.

I would watch out for post-blackhawk eagle. Most of the old guard from eagle went to start First Spear when they got bought out. But if you get old eagle gear its all good to go as fuck. My RRV is old eagle and it survived a tour and doesn't even look like it.
The backing is new and I should note that the pouches are all new to me, I removed all my tour shit from the RRV because AR Cadpat.

I love my slimgrip. If you run heavy, a suregrip would be a better option.
The inner and outer belt system can get uncomfortable with heavier setups worn for long durations.

he may, but he didn't specify. when I see mag pouches I think they are being used for mags. If he put a GP pouch on there I would say itss a solid basic set up.
