the qd is fine and the cummerbund does leave room for improvement
but that can be changed
SPC can fit a full combat load underneath a ruck including shit like small explosive charges?
I mean it’s a scaled down AVS
exactly
without the harness
scaled down
Because the k19 is garbage
This argument is going to go in circles
Just go steal an avs
have you had 1st hand experience or are you talking out if controversy and generalisation
I’ve had first hand experience
because so far you have put up no good points
That the cummerbund is a bike strap and can’t mount shit
the cummerbund can be changed
the placard mounts are fine
the new gen 3 k19 can use pretty much any cummerbund
AVS is also 6x the cost at the end of it all
Do you own a k19
yes
Fucking steal one
i di
Ah yes
do*
ah yes, then still pay 1k making it how i want
I fuckin own a K19 and I swear by it, I’ve used mine in the field and I’ve lived in the damn thing for weeks on end
How it fits without a light
I’ve owned all the shitty ones
Shellback
K19
Spc
Jpc
^^^ this is the experience i’m going off of btw
I liked my Jpc
i have a banshee 2.0. it’s held up amazingly
I wear my JPC for ranges and K19 for sustained ops just because the JPC isnt meant for prolonged wear
plus their QD cummerbund doesn’t move
The spc structural stuff will work better
It’s also airlite
It doesn’t retain water
Never had an issue and they fit whatever I can put on it, motherfuckers who complain about the lack of MOLLE in the cummerbund obviously never heard of a battle belt
oh also banshee has a dedicated spot for bladder
Personally, I enjoy the issued iotv so I can claim benefits at the va
which is honestly a plus, don’t have to carry as big of a bladder on the pack
stuffs naked rn
ong
K19 is for personal use
😂
It’s fuckin stupid especially if you are dismount
all i need at this point for my PC setup is IFAK and radio
Love getting caught on shit getting off a vic
You don’t use a pistol for work obviously
Who me?
Getting your holster caught on shut is annoying
When you’re getting in and out of cards
aren’t medics like one of the few people who carry pistols?
I’m a combat medic I carry an M17 and a fuckin M4 lol
Anyways
Everyone in here owns a k19
It’s pointless to even argue
@misty mango I’ll answer the holster question
Do you own the DO
no
Are you going to put an optic on it
Is it going to be a doctor optic
yes
both personal?
i dont have the money to get one currently
You didn’t answer the question
Lol and as for getting caught in shit this is why I use a mid ride with a single strap
no
which do you prefer? m18 or m17?
it will be a noblex optic
I’ve literally climbed buildings and Air assaulted and rappelled and no issues
Both
i just want it to get cold and snowy
plus ive had experience with noblex dots on a friends 10/22
i need a belt soon
I swear by ronin belts
belt, NODs, helmet, 5.56 rifle, suppressor, personal carrier then im done
only like 10-11k
I’m prob gonna upgrade to duals next year
But I have to spend money on the new house
What nvd are you running
I made my own PVS-14 using Elbit tubes and a Carson housing
What supressor?
What supressor you get
i just want a single lol. at least i can see at that point
What length rifle?
Yikes
On the picture
wym yikes 😭
Nothing
Lol my geissele is well gassed.
I also have a DDM4V7 I use as an alternate
i just want a quad rail or good quality MLOK
one of the two
but aero is always sold out
and i can’t get lowers
Lol my buddy’s store had 3 MK18 rails for 200 a pop
Last few batches having issues
cause stupid shit
Mfr rails are fairly priced
main reason i want the geiselle is so i can use the 16 inch as my long gun, then get two “pistol” uppers
and register my lower as an SBR
Apparently they were govt contact overruns ones since it had NSN markings and BII
How does that make sense
good lower
Get a radian lower if you’re mil
The discount on them is good
And the ambi is dope
I’ve got to play with some adm no lmt yet
can’t
18
have to buy a full rifle
or find someone dumb enough to sell me a lower
but geiselle is good enough. i’m definitely gonna get a radian selector and changing handle tho
live out my tarkov dreams
If you’re military you’re exempt
And if you get a rifle lower you can’t make it into a. Pistol without ppw
Fuckin radians always snag my PTT
I put one on rifles I shoot for fun but I’m not using that on shit I shoot kit on
@misty mango what questions did you have about the holster
Personally
it was mostly all optic compatability and how it holds the pistol without a flashlight
the no flashlight thing will be temporary until i get one
also any modifications you recommend for it
ive seen the nub mod floating about and idk if i should bother with it until i get hands on with the standard
other than that
everything ive seen online is fine
i prefer the DO over the RDS since i dont need the extra level of retention and the placement of the thumb latch seems a bit too far forwards for me
since i have somewhat smaller hands
It’s the same
The retention is the same
i dont mean the retention is any different
i just dont need the extra level that the optic flap offers
and from what ive seen the lever placement is further forwards
If you’re using an open emitter you need it
The main different the molding for the optic
I wouldn’t get a DO optic personally cause there is better optics
The do will fit most optics but the 6354 is a better design
It’s never
Newer*
The als lock is on the extractor but it indexes off the ligjt
also the DO is £55 cheaper
Light
If you’re going to get the holster get the light with it
Cause holstering is doable
But I wouldn’t recxomend it
thanks mate
ok thank you
Anyone here got a Leopold HAMR? I wanna buy one but I heard they had some really bad QC issues
for the same price you could buy a nice LPVO plus mount
actually you could buy an LPVO, mount, and an RMR plus mounts for less
Just buy an aimpoint
lpvo suck
its not 1x enough
Based
or if you get like a 6x the eye box is bad, and then the light transmission is bad
Elcans are kinda awful
elcan is bad too heavy bad eye box and expensive
also why do you think i said RMR?
This
ok so now i ask what is the point of having an rmr if you have a 1x optic, get a mpvo
the crossfire II from vortex is a 1-4 and the eye relief/eye box is amazing
2-10 with a red dot is so nice
Vortex low end glass is awful
4x is not enough imo, at least where i live
Unusable even
it’s actually amazing
no
i have a viper pst gen 2 1-6 its clear enough below that is bad
and again soo bad light transmission
Gotta love bad light transmission
y’all just hate anything that everybody likes 😂
whether it be optics, rifles, plate carriers, or other
Cause I don’t like bad shit
bet you hate RMA plates cause “cheap=bad”
i just want my stuff to work
Solid manufacturer
most people tell me they are terrible cause it’s cheap
i just tell them i bought an extra plate to test and it was good af
Funne trex arms sling
the trex sling is ok, the build quality could be better, but i have a flat line fiber sling way better
poor yes, doesn’t train no
i do train
can i see your magazines?
I’ve been busy
i been doing ok for shooting, but i am waiting for powder to develop a load for my new bolt action
State trooper arc?
I saw what you deleted lol
Ye
also why if you don’t mind me asking?
they aren’t packed rn if that’s why lol
no i want to see how much wear is on them tbh
thats plenty of time to get some wear in, what rifle?
Omfl
jp, it’s PSA gf3
Yikes
yeah yeah
oh thats ok
seb gives me enough shit
i have a gf3 they are fine
shut up
PSA
i am at over 4k rounds in mine
i’m at 1.5
Only got a few hundreads through my DD
hoping to get this geiselle and then just use that mainly
Don’t buy a geisselle
too bad
get something worth the money
You’re just full of bad purchases kek
how is it not?
The barrels aren’t that great
they have bad qc issues, bad products, mim triggers
nah you didn’t just say geiselle makes bad triggers 💀
hold on let me post a pic
They’re metal injected
mim is a form of metal injection molding btw
Which isn’t great t
They’re fine triggers
Like pull wise
Just durability awful
I like cmc
Larue
I have never broken a trigger
it still works and is better than most anything else i could get full rifle wise
Ever
You don’t shoot enough
DD
which i can’t get a lower and get a good upper
Sure bud, i dont shoot enough
it happens
Literally cheaper
Probably
radian makes full rifles?
Yes
Im currently on my 4th barrel on my galil
Okay
and that is not a cast trigger
its not going to break
Honestly its some shit aftermarket trigger as i couldnt use the stock one
what galil you have an og or an ace
either way its going to machined metal not cast
if i’m honest, i’d only get a DD if it’s a quad
I wouldnt buy DD full builds
i would, they are fine, but i like ambi bolt catch
i literally do not get any non standard AR
my ace gen 2 spoiled me, i now have to swap all my lowers to ambi
Ambi is stupid as shit
the only ambi that i like is bolt catch
the readycatch would work for me in most cases
Its not hard to hit with either hand
not the point, its nice to pull back the charging handle with your left hand and hold open the bolt with your right to clear jams
i’ll say this one more time
i have to buy a full rifle
i’m only 18
i can’t buy lowers
cant you buy a lower set
no
For stripped
not stripped
like an aero built lower
yeah it’s still 21
then build an upper
do not buy aero
Buy aero
cause i tried that
it depends on what your getting from aero imo
its quality control
then swap whatever you want
Is not ther ern
neither is PSA
and they told me nope, have to be 21 once it got to the shop
Get like an aero build, then play the funny adult legos
i just got an aero gun and i am disappointed, the receivers are fine tho
the only thing i’d buy of aero is their quad rails
no
get a midwest
this is from the bolt carrier group in my new aero gun
marred the fireing pin
burr on the gas hole in the barrel
the hand guard is chipped
i replaced that too with a quad rail
buy an aero, cept they are out of stock
lol
or get an M&P and play adult legos
yes get an m&p
Or dont do any of that
zion 15 is also fine
Im a fan of centurian
ngl i like iwi a lot they are well made
i just need the lower
also good
aero right now is the same price as centurion and i think they are better
ambi lowers are da whey
sell the other parts to some shmuck
LWRC rifles are solid
ambi is not the way
i would just get a sionics, dd, solgw,
teaches bad habits
wrong
What?
what
literally get the bog standard lower, learn on that, move from there
how does it teach bad habits
maybe, but like why
depends on the ambi but ive seen enough re res with funky lowers doing stupid shit with said lowers
Explain
finger slip off the ambi drop into an ND
WHAT
not a bad
they make quad rails?
Yes
oh shit
yes some of the best
the one thats right under the mag catch
dude i’ve got like 14 different things i wanna buy 😫
the magpul one?
you have no idea what you're talking about
get a daewoo
no, i cant remember the lower
get an adm. or a radian, or mars
fuckin neko has it
oh 😂
buy one of htese
the magpul is the on that’s on the right side and goes into the trigger guard
best 800 i spent
LWRC lowers are nice
also that grip angle is atrocious
Anyways
actually not as bad as you think
k2 better
who izu?
i mean i like em
never had one ND before
Dog shit design
I hate the sights
personally
I use red dots so it doesnt bother me
did you shoot alot before the army?
every single 320 ive used
has malfunctioned
Literally everyone one ive touched
decent amount. about 3k rounds of 5.56/9/.45 in about a year and a half
so no
i also grew up in california
I have like 2k~ in my m17
so no
and moved to kansas at 15
its fine
m17s are a bad design
so i didn’t have the ability to
now tho, i’ve got my ideas
Its fine, i just dont like poly framed 9s
canada reported that after 5k rounds the guns would go off in holsters when riding in a vehicle because the tolerances would wear down for the sear
i’ll use my sniper buddy for that lol.
no, ive been here longer than you
going to texas in about 3 months hopefully to shoot with him
Shit got me
those post sig sendbacks
i know a few places didnt do the recall
the mil batches OTD had the trigger fix
no the m17 is after them all the way around
only bad take i’ve seen you have. that include glocks and shit?
BTW
m17 is only post fix
^
the civvy ones arent iirc
it was the trigger shoe
im a safety guy
LOL
i cant get behind trigger safetys
i dont even like trigger safeties
what do you carry?
No safeties
the m17/m18 have safeties
cool
In the US its the DP51
or
then stopped getting imported until LionHeart started the LH-9 imports
now they make an adaption called the "regulus"
its fuckin gay
Uh
Gross
yeah
rather have a 1911
i would just carry a smith and wesson tbh if i could not do a glock
primarily replacing rollpins with actual pins
omg
Dp51
Fuck no
4-600 bucks
no
they are nifty little tri action pistols
I literally dont like anything youve said
whats sa+
flip hammer forward for one shot of SA weight but DA LoP
it was a korean safety thing
sounds awful
Koreans are fucking weird
Created this video for an overview. Video covers how the safety disconnects the trigger transfer bar, allowing the trigger to be pulled with no effect on the hammer in single-action nor in double-action. The video then covers how the pistol can be fired in single-action mode and double-action mode. Last up, triple-action is covered. What is ...
they have issues with the safety braking to
really nifty pistol
I'll stick with my p220
and i will stick to my glock
I give glock credit, but I'll never own one. Don't like the grip personally.
only one i have is a 17g2
If im having a gun for a carry, i need to have that little switch
eh my p365xl does not even have that
do you carry without a holster or something
never had issues
no, i just like having a safety
they all have safeties
let me guess you wont aiwb either
You just want it you proof
I carry my 220 decocked
reee
LOL
i am fine with appendix
but if im 🅱️ointing at my 🅱️enis im having a switch
ok
does the p220 have a transfer bar
220 is the old steel frame sig in 45acp. Would assume same as the 226 construction
sorry i am not vary knowledgeable on the sig line of guns besides the striker fire ones
Hammer fired
i know when i had my p07 i carried that with the hammer down too
I regret selling my 229
if it was single action only i would carry it cocked
Sa/da
not a fan of night sights
i dont mind them
They're good when I'll need them at night
I can take em or leave em
but i am going to switch to fiber front black rear
you still cant see the target with out a light
holy lmao
I'll have enough backlight if they come in the house to make out the shadow.
holy shit
just use your phone flashlight and everything will be okay
Wife sleeps next to me in bed and the two Rottweilers don't attack her
still dont like it but its better then shooting shapes
no, get a light
The correct thing is to have every light in hte house wired to a master switch
oh no i am in a dark parking garage
I also have a 500 lumen handheld with it
good
ez, tactical glowstick in my back pocket
question, anybody here used the expensive af velocity plates?
Theyre okay
the mil only ones
i’m talking the 700 dollar per plate ones
that's expensive af?
yea that is not expensive
their max one is 1700 iirc
high end stuff is liek 1 to 1-2
it’s also 700 cause it’s not public
DOD only
on their website, doesn’t even say MIL or LE. it just says MIL
My bad, 350 lumen light.
one handed shooting is not adequate
nor reocil control
get a WML dingus
carry bothj
Then need new holsters on top of it.
just run an olight
Well it was on a glock. May consider it suicide.
Joking right
I know your trying to be funny, but a light should not break from the recoil of 9mm
Agreed, have to have humor in life though
Would have been on the phone with surefire after it broke
I have 1 rifle and 1 pistol light that just swap guns
plus like 6 surefire handhelds that somehow multiply
Never have broken a handheld surefire though. Never used their weapon mounts.
I've trained with a lot of gear, and stick to what I like.
Mine seem to multiply as well, if they don't get lost.
yes 😂
that is an olgiht
The 1L-1aa is nice. Small, compact, will run a single AA or cr123. I also prefer the button push caps.
Was talking surefire so I assumed, my bad.
i am getting a tlr1hl to put on my g34
you good g
I Wonder what this is for? 🤔
aor2 is chad
Jesus…
that is like 40 bucks
Promise you the price tag has 2 zeros
it was free 
plateframe in general looks cheap
Im building the goon edition on a emerson plateframe
pouches are all eagle industries
It’s also bad
Solely building this for fun.
Based sigma mindset
S&s?
grass
Now go touch it
tarkov players dont touch grass he has all of that gear on for a reason
💀
@eternal shuttle hai there
What’s y’all’s thoughts on this pc and firstspear, thinking of buying it
for what, airsoft or irl work
Irl
sweet
cosmetically i think it looks sexy but thats all i can say as ive never owned one
It’s hot as fuck but no neck
you can get neck guards that attach to the front velcro bits i think. dunno how pricey they are but
the IOTV is fucking shit
I’m aware, but it’s also free
wouldnt trust my life with free gear
Lmao that’s fair
Meh the ESAPIs ppl get issued nowadays are pretty good
Still shopping around for pc’s
and you learn to check your kit for damage
if you do infantry work I recommend Crye CPC
ability for soft
and very comfortable
Tbh I don’t like crye
Oo now we are talking
wouldn't recommend going that big
Heavy Vests are meh
Also neck is wide af
I haven't found one practical neck guard by a american manufacturer
I’m trying to get chopper gunner so heavy vest would be preferable
reasonable dislike or just "I don't wanna be like everyone"
why not try european then?
my man I am european
ah
sorry to hear that
I tried snigel but nobody sells em
Hot take Crye’s overrated
fr
Overrated but a good brand nonetheless
its the supreme of the tac gear world
Honestly I just think they are ugly af
I’m sure they are fine quality wise
I mean if it works for you that’s what matters most tbh
it's there for a reason
Crye is issued a lot
AVS for USSOF
Pants for Army
I’m looking at a K19 or an MMAC myself
As I was saying though wouldn’t heavy armor be better for vehicle gunner though
And doing poor man’s clothes til I can afford UF Pro
i hear agelite or however its spelt is super nice
Arktis is good
Yes, no, maybe?
am getting their C222 Ranger Pants, basically Crye G3s with covert Kneepads, Massive Cargos and some other life improvements
and they are not like 500 bucks
like G3s are here
fuck I hate importers
CPC for 1.3k are you shitting me
I got mine used for like 400?
maybe 350
don't remember
jew gear 
their K19 is a overengineered JPC 2.0
lmfao
also heard their tubes break with little dirt
And with that I go back to shopping I guess
not a big fan of tubes on my side
what are your exact requirements
buy the ana tac M2. i love mine but im an airsofter so my opinion is null
I want a better quality mtv
Get a PASGT and ISAPO 
PCs are decent for their price. werable stuff like their combat uniforms and winter gear us amazing and i will die with that opinion held tightly
Would those be allowed gear in the army
their G3 clones are decent
but I rarely see their pouches and stuff issued
AA does have a pretty big place in issued stuff
Need to get some shit from ArsArma for kit, fucking 4 months wait time from my seller
fucking AIDS
actual ana stuff is swell. the stuff greyshop sells is for the civvie market so its not as good, gotta get the actual military ana gear
mm in arsarma we trust
I don't I need it to be kosher and that's it
I bought a gorka 4 off there and I found out that it’s Mordor tac after words 
Fort and G99 is the only brand I would actually trust
tbh i dont care bout kosher, i just wear what i like
mordor tac gear is whack
only thing i like is their tracksuits
SSO/Slavyanka Gorkas are decent but Mordor Tac and BARS is pretty meh
G99 is nice but fuck they are pricey
Gorkas are pretty shit anyway
you tell me
overrated
It’s just a style thing
L10 like 700 bucks from my seller
fuhhh
more expensive than the UF Pro Contract XT set
about 600 bucks
for fucking XTs in MC
Now as I said is there any heavier based armor like the mtv that would be allowed for use in the army
jsut because they aren't made in MC normally
gocha
SIEON TACTICUM Vest
Crye CPC with soft extensions
FS MASS
I’m assuming a osprey mk2 is not allowed considering it’s foreign issue gear
they have rules on foreign gear?
I imagine to an extent
warrior assualt system is decent
agreed
I’ll check those out
WAS are fairly cheap too
you can use a CIRAS too or a RVV 
lmao
fuck no
a 6B45 is decent
does take SAPIs
altho the cummerbund and buckle system can be reworked
yes
they're comfy tho
yeah i like the 6B45
Paraclete RAV*
do the USSOF drip
doesn't look too good in the Softarmor department
can probably attach stuff to it
I know a UKrainian Medic, he fucking hates people on the battlefield without softarmor
not effectively
I don’t like soft armor
you don't like life then
I mean….
soft armour is your answer to shrapnel
Man running around like muh Opr8tor High speed and getting dropped by a small piece of shrap from a artillery shell 200 meters away in the obliques

i get dogged on for having 3+ safelife armor
Also correct me if I’m wrong but is high speed and that other bs real or just crap that’s made up to make Paul blart feel cool
the weird ass flexible RF rated armor?
High Speed, Low Drag
a term used if you wanna go pretty light
like most SOF do if they have some quick job to do
so you want to be a normal Apache gunner?
Yeah
people call safelife chinesium but it can stop 5.7x28
Wait
not like you can eject either
Were you the guy who was buying Ali armor
ali armour is top tier
On god?
i have 2 plates of armor from wish that i bought to shoot at the range tomorrow, ill report my findings to you guys, claims to be NIJ 3a but theyre thin as hell, so well see
steel?
ill shoot .22 up to .45 and see how it does, then one AR round
yes
Also I made a mistake
I ment black hawk
ah yeah door gunner
Yeah
just get some soft
omg demo ranch hiiiiii!!!!
Soft with plates or just soft
lmao i wish
his armor he tested actually stopped alot tho so i have high hopes for the $40 wish plates
do a stab test too
For the love of god just get iv plates from anywhere else
do it like normal people
i have 2 NIJ 4 steel plates
get the hotter round first
WB an anti tank cannon
that ruins the surprise
you will die
Why not ceramic
I would run both because if a insurgent gets a lucky shot I’d like not to fall to the ground
have fun trekking 50 lbs of armor
Imagine steel
literally most shit material for modern platews
you have so much variaty
I won’t be walking
Alumina, SiC, B4C, TiB2, UHMWPE
i said i have steel i didnt say i run it
and you literally choose steel
i buy milsurp daily, i get steel, cry about it
Just get uhmwpe or ceramic
🍿
just buy ESAPIs
what am i watching
Soft armor will literally not stop anything above pistols up to 300 meters
But muh $60 Chineseium
except it is subsonic
it has room for an insert
that is a plate you dumbass
can stop 5.7x28 do i have to say it again
yeah but 7N25?
it was more fun when i wasnt involved
Do I need to @ sebby so she can spam that image at you
i dont like talking to armor larpers
Yes please, I could use another laugh
“Larper”
you are just a coping and seething PoorTM
you make fun of oper8tors but you guys are the oper8tors
I just know what won't kill me 
why would you compromise on something that you rely on with your life
Ceramic stopped a agl in Ukrainian so imma go with that
can I send a vid of a ukrainian getting shot in his steel plate and having to apply a TQ cuz it spalled
We all larp to an extent, wearing kit is totally fine and shouldnt be stigmatized lol
it shows perfectly how shit steel is
brother is really that skimped that hes like "yeah if they have a rifle then i guess im just fucked"
"worth the money saved"
Mans gets hit with 223 “ my time has come”
the VOG wasn't armed to my info
seriously
you cant recommend bad armor
because if it was the plate my have stopped it but the guy would be literal pieces
this isnt airsoft that we are talking about
you cant cheap out
you cant
if you do you are a fucking idiot
there is no discussion
Man I love my Ali sapi steels I got for cheep, he says as Muhammad zeros in on him with his shitty Soviet rifle that’s about to body him
Exactly thats why i buy ar 500 armor 🙏 just as good™️
lol
Buy once cry once as they say
buy one cry once so that you live to fucking cry again
Precisely
there will be no more crying when home bro gets shwacked with M855
"IT CAN STOP A 5.7"
Or a shovel
who the fuck is running around fighting exclusively people armed with pistols
exactly
Man m855? He’d get whacked with surplus 7.62 x 39 from the last time Russia invaded
why do you guys think im wearing soft armor to fight in the trenches
Don’t recommend armor that can’t be used in war
