[balmy mesa]

So just wanting something that can hold a bunch z

[snow scarab]

bro izu i just got a call that my deer is ready

shits like 300 bucks

fuccckkkkk

[coarse laurel]

I went from being a line medic to a TC with my own crew in a 113 ambulance to a driver for the XO/CO and a tank loader lmao

We did DECM and it taught me that I’d rather fucking get the casualty out anyway I can rather than sit on the poor fuck

That shit was ass

I don’t want to work anywhere near a table

Or an aid station in that capacity

Had real world shit like rollovers, ND’s and grenade mishaps that involved a blown up hand but ended up getting the dudes on a bird

During the same training cycle

I’d rather not sit on those people on a role 1

[snow scarab]

had a buddy have to witness a brand new e5 get his arm blown off at a grenade range

dude took it like a champ apparently.

stayed conscious and survived

[plush topaz]

My knees are in good shape surprisingly.

I injured them in the army quite a bit

[coarse laurel]

lol im 31 now i joined at 27, im feeling the hurt

[simple harbor]

I like

[snow scarab]

did you have any DS younger than you? lol

[coarse laurel]

most of them were lol

[snow scarab]

lol

[balmy mesa]

I’m still debating

Detachable back pack or hydration 🙂

[left flax]

Hydration

Easy

[coarse laurel]

@balmy mesa sadly one of the few detachables is the agilite AMAP

Lol funny thing about the AMAP you can fit the K19 inside the pack

For edc purposes

[simple harbor]

Depends what your doing innit

I'd personally pick hydration

[stuck hazel]

Just run a backpack

[left flax]

Plate carrier bags are weird

[stuck hazel]

They are

[left flax]

Have to take the fucken plate carrier off to access kt

[stuck hazel]

I have my triple pouch and a GP pouch on my back, and they flatten out pretty easy so I can just run a backpack

[coarse laurel]

I run plate carrier packs for hydration and extra medical supplies and other shit I need to have on me but not need immediate access

All it is is extra cargo space

I actually also carry my OCP goretex top and bottom on mine and boonie on the damn thing

Sometimes extra gloves

I need to take off the PC to put it on anyways lmao

Oh also the straps to turn my placard into a stand-alone chest rig

In the unlikely event I need to go light or ditch the PC

[left flax]

I just prefer a separate backpack over my pc tbh, I find having it mounted annoying

[snow scarab]

that’s good if it’s a really nice bag designed to wear with body armor

[left flax]

which i have luckily

prefer it over my old PC that came with the mounted pack

hated it

[stuck hazel]

Depends on how much shit you put in it as to whether that’s an issue

[snow scarab]

yes and no

lots of really nice bags like MR have built in pads for wearing with body armor

[coarse laurel]

@snow scarab

[snow scarab]

hawt

[coarse laurel]

Def isn’t a duty use plate carrier out of the box

But it’s so light and pretty concealable

It’s something I would stuff inside my 3 day assault pack given how small it is

I’m just waiting for my MOLLE adapter from whiskeytwofour

I haven’t set up the fcpc yet

[snow scarab]

i wish i could have a board like this

i wanna build a stand but idk where to put it besides my basement lol

[coarse laurel]

i got a plate carrier stand from my last unit, someone made it for me as a welcome gift

[snow scarab]

lucky mf. also subarus are expensive af, jesus

[granite tartan]

that wears the straps

[plush topaz]

My rear pack is user removable and attach able.

Awkward to do but still possible

[snow scarab]

i might steal an ivan and use that

[misty mango]

just throw it on the floor🙏

[left flax]

Throw you on the floor

[misty mango]

@granite tartan

[lean bridge]

bro what kind of tatical gear is that?

[plush topaz]

Crye precision scenic views

[lean bridge]

Titan or combined materials?

[snow scarab]

bruh what?

ain't no sane person using titanium or combined materials for body armor unless its ceramic and UHMWPE

[lean bridge]

its a joke, because he said the name of a armor company.

[snow scarab]

crye don't make armor

they make clothing and plate carriers

[lean bridge]

Whats a plate carrier?

A form of armor

[snow scarab]

nope

its essentially a cloth bag

[lean bridge]

not the carriers themselves but the plates are

[snow scarab]

which you put armor in

thats like calling powder a round

[lean bridge]

Btw does tarkov have the abilty to change out armor plates?

[snow scarab]

fuck if we know, we don't play the game

[lean bridge]

then why are you in this discord bro

also I like titan armor

its heavy but it stops rounds like there nothing

[snow scarab]

not really

it also sends spall into your neck and dick

[lean bridge]

I mean in tarkov

[snow scarab]

dude none of us give a fuck about what armor you like in tarkov unless you are asking us if its good IRL

news flash, most of the good armors in tarkov are shite irl

[lean bridge]

but did I ask about that?

[snow scarab]

no but you keep talking about the armors in game like we give a fuck

this is IRL gear and IRL weapons, not tarkov gear and weapons

[lean bridge]

fine then

[granite tartan]

You gotta got to the east coast beaches

10x better

[snow scarab]

fuck no

west coast beaches are the shit

[icy crag]

No one plays the game in this chat lmao

It’s drip or drown folks

[lean bridge]

where did you get the patch

[misty mango]

MC Black
mid

[lean bridge]

I need it

[icy crag]

Etsy. I can dm you the store link if you really want

[icy crag]

Take it back

[lean bridge]

thx

[misty mango]

nah
ranger green on top

[icy crag]

Dmed you

[misty mango]

mc black looks tolerable on RG kits

but at that point just get black

looks better

🙏

[icy crag]

The med pouch was a gift. I might eventually replace it, and use the pouch for something else

Possibly will just put pistol mags in it

[lean bridge]

I already ordered it..

[left flax]

Ew

[granite tartan]

Florida beaches

Goof ass

[snow scarab]

suck

[granite tartan]

Bad opinion

My new chlk came in

Fuck it fucks

[plush topaz]

We both know that isnt true

[granite tartan]

Uh?

[ionic forum]

@left flaxActually, I second this. It looks good

[stuck hazel]

Mc black is purely drip

[misty mango]

debatable

it can be done well

[stuck hazel]

Hence why the only two things I use it on is my sling and fanny pack

[misty mango]

but like most things
ott ruins it

its like multicam

solid camo

just too much looks ugly

[stuck hazel]

Best of all worlds

[misty mango]

flat colour shirt under MC carrier>

goes hard as hell

[stuck hazel]

Bingo

[misty mango]

black hoodies are even drippier

[stuck hazel]

They are true

[misty mango]

or just black stuff in general looks good under an MC carrier

[stuck hazel]

I may have treat myself to some unspoken canoe club drip as a Christmas present

Nothing for a snake hoodie

I needed a black hoodie for airsoft because all my shit is nice and I don’t want to ruin it in the woods

[misty mango]

felt

[stuck hazel]

Oop

Nearly

[misty mango]

i used to run a slightly smaller hoodie i kinda grew out of for airsoft

then i just went and got a cheap but comfy hoodie that i dont really mind damaging

[stuck hazel]

Yeah that’s best

[misty mango]

cheap hoodie tend to be stupid comfy for no reason

[stuck hazel]

Exactly

[misty mango]

its also pretty breathable

that helps for me as i overheat a lot

[stuck hazel]

I wear a shirt all times of the year

I used to run my decade old arcy but yeah nah fucked me over

Too hot

[misty mango]

sacrifices have to be made for the drip😔

[stuck hazel]

This is sick cant lie

[left flax]

Real though

[misty mango]

holy shit
a way to make quads actually convenient

[stuck hazel]

Green housing as well

Uber drip

[crystal halo]

Thank you guys

[low fox]

I just got my Level 4 plates in the mail

Thanks Santa

[granite tartan]

What plates you get

[low fox]

Lvl4 SiC

[granite tartan]

Not bad

[low fox]

They're on the high end level of Plates

Well... talking within the civil market

Not issued

[granite tartan]

I would say about mid tier

[low fox]

This is the first time I actually hokd/touch an armored plate

But I've Ben recommended it

[granite tartan]

What sizing are they

[low fox]

Medium

[granite tartan]

10x12 or sapi

:😅

[low fox]

Sapi cut

[granite tartan]

So you don’t know

[low fox]

No I do know

It's on the paper lol

And I did size my self but I used Canti's

[granite tartan]

You don’t

Because you didn’t answer my question

They’re sapi plates

Sapi cut ≠ sapi plate

The cut is in reference to the trim

[low fox]

I thought they're the same?

[granite tartan]

Sapi plate is a set of dimensions

With cut

If it’s sapi cut the trim will be similar but the dimensions are 10x12

Sapi plates are half sizes in medium

12.5x9.5

[low fox]

Good to know

[granite tartan]

Most things are going to 12.5x9.5 which is nicer cause that’s what all the nice carriers are cut in

You shouldn’t have issues with a 10x12 cause the plate bags are elastic but with a cover on the plate stuff gets tight

[low fox]

I sized my chest and it was on point with the medium size plate chart they gave me

[granite tartan]

Ye

[low fox]

Their plates are "3D" and it's like bend and all

So it like wraps around the chest and not just on there

But nah these are the best plates I can get

And I've heard so many good things about UARM

And it's ships to Isreal

[granite tartan]

Multicurve

It’s a lot of marketing bs on their page

Doesn’t interest me

[low fox]

Well it is the first time I have actually held a plate

And costed me around 880 bucks with out the shipping

It's heavy

[granite tartan]

Yeah not Interested in wearing 15.5 lbs of armor

Then extra shit ya know

[low fox]

Oh well

15.5lbs is heavy that's for sure, but at some point it wouldn't be as heavy, Obviously yours not holding the thing

When I get my full kit, I'll try to run a mile with them

For now I can run a mile in 6 minutes, still is exhausting for me, but it gets easier every time

[granite tartan]

Your cartilidge doesn’t repair

[low fox]

As much that is true, I don't think anybody's Cartilage was in good health from first to end, well that's when we talk about people who do sports outside of the military

You gotta know that the Cartilage is just "that good"

It hold like shit ton of weight, and when build muscle around it could have the whole it's "durability" or how much while for it to actually have syndoms makes it a way longer

[granite tartan]

I’m currently buying my mom some arc teryx

[stuck hazel]

Mm

Repping rn

[granite tartan]

What teryx

That a beta?

[stuck hazel]

Sabre

I’ve got an atom LT underneath

It’s cold

[granite tartan]

Dank

I want to get a beta jacket

[low fox]

wanna ask where can I get White Snow Cryies?

[stuck hazel]

Almost everywhere if you are looking for the overalls

Other than that, second hand market (ebay, Facebook marketplace)

[low fox]

I hate overalls

All of them are thick for absolutely no reason

[stuck hazel]

Hard wearing

Snow Crye coveralls are thick because they act as insulation/waterproofing as well as camouflage

Because Crye is cool like that

[plush topaz]

You live in Israel. Cold climate they’re key

[low fox]

I live near hermon rejoin

[plush topaz]

Even on its coldest day it’s not that cold

[low fox]

In tempture degrees, Sure it's not "cold" but mix that with High Moist and Strong wind, Kinda is + its harder to breath

[plush topaz]

Oh please the altitude is negligible it doesn’t affect the air density

Mt hermon is basically a hill

[stuck hazel]

Why do you need snow camo if it’s not even cold

[low fox]

I just want cool white pants

And it is cold

[plush topaz]

You get any snow yet

[low fox]

We get snow after December, just because you have winter in the north doesn't mean we have winter here

Winter starts after December in isreal

[plush topaz]

I’ve had snow in hermon in November

[low fox]

You sure?

[plush topaz]

Yes

It’s not uncommon

[low fox]

It did snow for the first 3 weeks of spring one time

But I don't know about that though

[low fox]

But again it is cold

[plush topaz]

Gorgeous

[low fox]

It's almost a perfect environment

[low fox]

OOOOOHH I GET WHAT U MEAN

You mean like at the top of Mt hermon?

Where it's like 2k meters up

[plush topaz]

@low fox

Yep. Literally the very top lol

[low fox]

One time I was there as a school trip and we found a stashed 556 belt

The amount of brass in Mt hermon is wild

[plush topaz]

Wow. Not surprising tho

[stuck hazel]

Just get Crye overalls if it’s cold then

[compact dagger]

FN MAG perhaps ?

Or m240 or whatever the name was

[plush topaz]

Mag. We don’t use the 240 in israel

[snow scarab]

it’s the same gun, just the modern version lol

[granite tartan]

Only overwhites

[low fox]

alr

[plush topaz]

It isnt the same gun.

240’s have many differences.

[granite tartan]

“The M240 – officially the Machine Gun, 7.62 mm, M240 – is the U.S. military designation for the FN MAG, “

Right off the wiki

[plush topaz]

Yeah. Different gun

US version. Which we don’t use

Easy to tell them apart

[real whale]

that's kinda like saying you're a different person once you change your name though

[plush topaz]

Wish we did tbh. It’s way better. Albeit a bit heavier

Heathsield. Different gas key. Pic rail.

[real whale]

like don't get me wrong, i'm aware of the minor differences between the fn mag and the m240. but the typical american perception of "the same gun" basically just refers to the receiver and how it operates.

[stuck hazel]

It’s literally not.

Does an AR15 become a different gun when you change the handguard

[plush topaz]

American moment.

Anyway. Back to my point. With we had 240’s. Much more modern and useful.

We did a few shoots with them with American soldiers who were training with us.

[snow scarab]

that’s like saying the m27 isn’t a 416 cause it has a heavier barrel

[plush topaz]

Well a 240 is an FN mag. But an FN mag isn’t a 240. Lacks all the parts the 240 comes with.

Different gun. According to us anyway.

[real whale]

all m240s are fn mags, some fn mags are m240s

[plush topaz]

I put an ITL mars on a 240. God it was way better than irons.

[plush topaz]

Yeee

[granite tartan]

It’s the same gun

The m16 is the military designation for an ar-15

All I want is a cetme Amelia

[plush topaz]

I’d agree if it had the same parts as the mag. But it’s improved and modernized.

[granite tartan]

This is pedantic

[stuck hazel]

…But it’s functionally the same gun

Yeah. Pedantic is one word.

[granite tartan]

🤓 but technically

@stuck hazel stupid?

[stuck hazel]

🤓well akchually

[granite tartan]

Not even

It’s the same gun

[stuck hazel]

Well I would say otherwise but the tarkov server won’t let me

[granite tartan]

Lol

[plush topaz]

Correct

I wasn’t talking about functionality.

Slow day in IRL Y’all had to argue some dumb thing one way or another.

[stuck hazel]

Painful day.

I’d rather do this

[timber fog]

Not really anything new here though, is it?

[stuck hazel]

Slow day in in real life

[timber fog]

I have to wonder how many times you’ve been re-reading that to only catch it 5 minutes after your last comment lmao

Slow day fr

[compact dagger]

Ngl lowkey wish that we would train with Israeli, especially in their setting

Especiallysince we use their Heavy AT shit

[coarse laurel]

man, only interactions i had with IDF was in fort sam houston

we had their medics going through our schoolhouse as our classmates

[plush topaz]

That’s interesting. How’d they do.

[plush topaz]

We put on spike ATGM demonstrations for German and Spanish soldiers

[coarse laurel]

they did good because they can understand the curriculum compared to some others like the Nigerians and the eastern europeans

[plush topaz]

So their English was satisfactory

[coarse laurel]

yup

we had polish, slovenian, lithuanians, romanians

etc

and a tainwanese marine corps LT

he stood out because he was the only one wearing blue cammies

@plush topaz some of them are from the 1st golani bde or something

[compact dagger]

In Israel or your guys travel out ?

Since we use both SR and LR

also small PSA

Fuck LR

but SR is my bae

[compact dagger]

I guess EEU have mostly problems with English language ?

Or they just do shit differently ?

[coarse laurel]

abit of both

[compact dagger]

I know that our guys do stuff a lot different compared to lets say UK guys

[coarse laurel]

they hate death by power point as much as we do

[compact dagger]

we had their SF-ish guys come over and teach us

basically had to re-teach everything

And i guess you know the pain of when you have to teach something to people through a translator

From what the UK guys told us they are a new unit that sits somewhere between SF and regulars

[coarse laurel]

i trained ROKA soldiers in TC3

i know this feeling

they can understand english but the written test killed them

[compact dagger]

So what they do currently is just going to countries with less actual experience and train them

[coarse laurel]

i had to have one of my KATUSA's translate the written portion in korean

and they all passed

[snow scarab]

hey, a soldier is a soldier in the end

we all hate the same shit 😂

[coarse laurel]

i spice up my CLS classes with gore videos

[compact dagger]

Well to be fair, some presentations can be good

but most of them is shit

[coarse laurel]

thats how you maintain interest in class

[snow scarab]

nice

[compact dagger]

Yep

[coarse laurel]

like i had this video of a dude who bit down a blasting cap

his whole mouth exploded

[snow scarab]

oh i’ve seen the after math of that

[compact dagger]

The more real shit you put into the presentations the more people want to learn

[snow scarab]

mans fucked up

[coarse laurel]

yah

there was this one funny one where the dude was impaled by a pylon from a boat dock,from the ass up, but he lived

[compact dagger]

The way we keep up the interest in our AT/Vic Rec classes is to watch some videos of the current conflict

[coarse laurel]

it was a boat accident

[compact dagger]

Some videos will be just "whats this vehicle"

[coarse laurel]

legit the biggest thing ever taken up the ass by a human being

[compact dagger]

And then see what happens after one blows up

[misty mango]

sounds like them new rangers

or maybe marines

[compact dagger]

The guy i talked to said its a kind of new unit

[misty mango]

theyre both above standard infantry but not SF

[compact dagger]

Yea

[misty mango]

yeah
rangers then

[compact dagger]

They said its inbetween

Some guys are ex SF tho

at least in the team that came here

[snow scarab]

during our two week we were working with the active infantry guys on FLW, we were doing different charges and my little e4 ass was giving classes to privates up to SFCs. showed off that picture to make sure they didn’t eat shit

[compact dagger]

FLW ?

[snow scarab]

loved that class, i lit some c4 on fire and threw it at the class

[coarse laurel]

fort leonard wood

[snow scarab]

they all scattered and screamed

[coarse laurel]

fort lost-in-the-woods rather

[compact dagger]

Thats why I want to go and learn with US guys

First you actually learn good stuff

Then it can be fun

[coarse laurel]

and we usually provide the ammo and the guns lol

[compact dagger]

But sadly my specialisation doesn't come with any courses that i'd need foreigners to teach me

[coarse laurel]

i love how everytime the germans do their GAFB we always provide them with the shit but they let us participate

[snow scarab]

i love the video of the germans firing the m2s from like 10 years ago

[compact dagger]

Only thing I could imagine is them sending us to Israel to better learn the Spike system

but doubt it will ever happen

[coarse laurel]

im sad i didnt get to get my GAFB because i didnt get a slot

i would loved to worn it on my blues

[compact dagger]

GAFB ?

[coarse laurel]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Armed_Forces_Badge_for_Military_Proficiency

[snow scarab]

you gotten measured for pinks and greens yet?

[coarse laurel]

nah im still using my blues

im getting to that though

[snow scarab]

i don’t know which one looks better imo

[coarse laurel]

i have to wear my tan ranger beret with it though

lmao

[snow scarab]

blues are slick, but the pinks and greens look better when downgraded

[coarse laurel]

lol but i like my meager chest salad

@snow scarab sigh

Working on my 4th stack

i havent looked at my SRB lately, ive gotten several awards since then

[snow scarab]

me who doesn’t even properly have a full set of pinks and greens cause i was never given any ribbons 🥲

[coarse laurel]

some units are bad with awards

most of my awards i got from other units that werent my own

which is hilarious

[snow scarab]

well i’m also NG so they don’t GAF

[coarse laurel]

i got a bunch from the ROTC Command

for training cadets in fort knox last summer

[snow scarab]

one dude didn’t get officially promoted to e4 for like 9 months

[coarse laurel]

rip

that backpay though

[snow scarab]

he was getting paid, but didn’t get anything else ceremony wise

and still had to wear private rank

meanwhile i got promoted 5 months early and got it 3 days after paperwork went through 😂

[coarse laurel]

@snow scarab wanna know the fucked part

[snow scarab]

absolutely

[coarse laurel]

i picked up, but no BLC yet

[snow scarab]

oh yeah i’ve heard that was happening

[coarse laurel]

the ranger school folks wanna send me this january

then jumpy boi school

ill be busy

[snow scarab]

basically the only criteria is you gotta get it done before you make e6

from what i’ve heard

[snow scarab]

you having to go through all the schools minus RASPS?

[coarse laurel]

its optional for me but im fuckin going to take advantage of the opportunity

[snow scarab]

oh definitely. i would too

[coarse laurel]

airborne is in the same bde as us, air assault is next door

[snow scarab]

lucky mf 😂

[coarse laurel]

pathfinder is also next door

[snow scarab]

ain’t goin far

[coarse laurel]

MMTC next door

ranger school is us

RSLC is us

lmao

[snow scarab]

there were only two schools that i’ve wanted to go to no matter what: sapper and UMBC

and of course they fucked off with UMBC for some reason

[coarse laurel]

I had to buy new patches

[snow scarab]

how much those run you?

[coarse laurel]

man like 15 bucks ea with the tab

paid a hundred for my beret

[snow scarab]

racking up a tab 😂

no pun intended

[coarse laurel]

because it has to get the flash sewn in plus the RDI

Had to get rid of the doritos

[snow scarab]

faded ahhh ranks

i thought you joined post 2016?

[coarse laurel]

Post

Lol I wear my shit out a lot

[snow scarab]

you still got issued UCP?

[coarse laurel]

Did

[plush topaz]

Yeah.

In Israel

[compact dagger]

Neat

Sadly our guys won't get invited over

Only times we get to meet Israelis are when there's a planned Spike LR shooting during one of the exercises

Some of our guys got Spike User Club thingie

The thing I want to talk about with them

Is SR camera also such shit on the combat version

[plush topaz]

3 Golani battalions. 12, 13, and 51.

[compact dagger]

or is it only so bad on training one

[coarse laurel]

that means its one of the 3 then

BDE > BN unless it works differently from y'all

like for us there's 5 BN's plus headquarters in a brigade

5-7k personnel each

[plush topaz]

Never had an issue

But it wasn’t my expertise

[compact dagger]

Well I havent looked though combat version

but according to what I was told in the training for it

The range is 2km

and you can barely see past like 600m

both vis and IR

[plush topaz]

You see shapes of heat and you're trained to recognize what those shapes are

[compact dagger]

I can't really distinguish a shape when its a 5x5 pixel blob

[plush topaz]

You pilot the missile the entire way so you can abort if it turns out to be a bad target

[compact dagger]

nah thats LR

thats different

[plush topaz]

I don't understand your abbreviations sorry

[compact dagger]

SR=shortrange

basically a NLAW

LR is the big thing that you can control

Better range, better cameras and can abort if needed

SR is basically just lock on, shoot and forget

What my grudge is, at least with training SR, is that the camera is shit, cant really see anything beyond 600m in IR

But I understand that they wouldn't want their top shelf stuff for training ones, since its easy to "misplace" one and then few months later find it in a country Israel wouldn't like having it

[mystic kelp]

??wipe

[rancid stag]

The official date of the next wipe is not yet announced, however it is near!

[snow scarab]

[golden jacinth]

Unity Riser or Larue? (Don’t roast me for the TQ, pic was taken before Christmas and my parents were getting them for me for Christmas lol)

[coarse laurel]

not able to get a multicam 3 day?

I’m in love with my mystery ranches

[snow scarab]

i want one so fucking badly

they don’t ever have komodo’s in stock for MC tho

@granite tartan look at the jumpable komodo

same shit, just more pockets in it

[coarse laurel]

my wife got this one for me when i got back from korea

she got me the RATS like the year prior

[snow scarab]

i just need a good 3 day pack that isn’t my medium ruck

eberlestock halftrack or a komodo, those are my two choices rn

but as of rn i’m just saving to pay for my car

[coarse laurel]

rip

[snow scarab]

yup

and i’m poor so like 16k is max i can do easily

so i’m stuck looking at shit with like 120k plus miles

although i did find an impreza tho it’s too small

[coarse laurel]

subies last awhile

thats the good thing about em

[snow scarab]

lemme find the other one i was looking at

18k for a red 2015

65k miles

[granite tartan]

God fuck the bison belt

[golden jacinth]

got this one for 1 hundo brand new so i couldnt turn it down, will most likely get a multicam bag, not sure if you can in the 3 day, I havent looked into it. I do love mine aswell

[snow scarab]

wtf how

[coarse laurel]

you can but it has to be ordered direct iirc

[granite tartan]

Just ordered a brown komoddo

[snow scarab]

from where

[snow scarab]

nice

[granite tartan]

2 day assault is cheap

Small as fuck

[golden jacinth]

bison belt is king

[snow scarab]

yeah i need a 3 day

[granite tartan]

Bad opinion

[granite tartan]

Might need something larger

[snow scarab]

what’s your body armor/plate carrier situation lookin like?

or working on it?

[snow scarab]

a 3 day bag in general. looking at the komodo for that

that or the eberlestock half track

[granite tartan]

I really do like Coyote

Works better where I’m at

[golden jacinth]

just started getting into it this past fall so this is where im at. Been waiting on a HSP Thorax to come into stock, but i might just get a FCPC or a JPC 2.0 with DEFENDRs

[granite tartan]

Please don’t buy an fcpc

[snow scarab]

thorax is meh, good modularity

mike you don’t even know what it’s like to wear one

[granite tartan]

You have no idea who I am

I just dropped $1k on bags

[snow scarab]

you bought two?

[granite tartan]

Yes

[snow scarab]

send me one and i’ll pay you back with interest

[granite tartan]

Would if I could

@snow scarab I’ll consider it

[fickle bison]

That's how u get into debt lmao

[snow scarab]

lmfao

[coarse laurel]

buy your car first

[snow scarab]

i’m already gonna take on 9-11 grand, what’s a could hundred

[snow scarab]

well duh

i’m not that dumb

i’m slightly smarter than your average 12B

just slightly

[plush topaz]

@granite tartan can you let me know how that pack is when you get it. I haven’t had a proper Ruck since the army. I left it in israel.

[coarse laurel]

sliiiightttly

[granite tartan]

Yeah I will

Going to use it for work/larp

[snow scarab]

honestly i like the large molle gen 2 rucks

[coarse laurel]

dude i hate the fuckin creaking of the MOLLE II ruck

[snow scarab]

that’s my main issue

[coarse laurel]

16 miles of that creaking is enough to drive you insane

[snow scarab]

lmfao

i want a malice in MC

i want so much shit but poor

[coarse laurel]

i started humming loudly

to drown it out

[granite tartan]

@golden jacinth if you’re not a manlet buy an spc

[snow scarab]

next year i’ll make around 39k so i’ll have more play money

[granite tartan]

Neet

@snow scarab how’s the spc treating you

[coarse laurel]

i was always jealous of the rucks the crayoneaters use

[granite tartan]

They were not bad

[coarse laurel]

it makes more fuckin sense

[granite tartan]

My frame wasn’t blown up either

I also hated ruck marches

[coarse laurel]

molle II requires alot of modification and alot of people do not have the knowledge to fuckin do it so they suffer in rucks

[snow scarab]

everything they use is unironically better

for all the shit we give them

[coarse laurel]

their leadership also fails them for not teaching them

[granite tartan]

Based

[coarse laurel]

not looking forward to jumping with a whole molle II lol

just give me a medium ruck

[snow scarab]

from rucks to body armor to helmets

[coarse laurel]

please

[granite tartan]

Pack on stomach simply

Skill issue

[snow scarab]

medium ruck is meh

i only used that in basic and hate it

[plush topaz]

After tax?

[coarse laurel]

im a medic so i also have mt jumpable aidbag

lmfao

[snow scarab]

before

[coarse laurel]

so im literally carrying multiple shit

[snow scarab]

like 28 after

[plush topaz]

True

[coarse laurel]

@snow scarab i tried rucking the 12 mile route for ranger school recently

i can see how fuckin people time out

so much up and downs

and it just goes on forever

the rasp one is even worse

[plush topaz]

Our beret March was 53km

It’s the final March before you complete your training

The final 12 is carrying stretchers

[coarse laurel]

@plush topaz oh so its broken down?

[plush topaz]

What do you mean

[coarse laurel]

like its not straight 53km?

[plush topaz]

You get a couple of breathers. Meal and hydration stops

Then the final 12 you break out stretchers and carry the lightest guys you can find

[snow scarab]

you ever seen sapper hill?

[coarse laurel]

gotcha

for us its the same, the difference is taking contact along the route for scouts and when i reclassed to medic is the litter carry as well followed by an obstacle at the end

total 32-36miles

[plush topaz]

After your first deployment you do your warrior March. 10+10km stretcher only our last 10 led up to the Masada fortress. The sight of a Roman siege where 900+ Jews committed suicide before the Roman’s broke in. Brutally tough.

[coarse laurel]

i fuckin hated that one colonel who wanted to shake my hand at the end of the medic one

i just finished crawling thru mud under cwire and he wanted to shake hands

im fuckin freezing

[snow scarab]

that’s like normal AIT finishing for medics is 32-36??

[coarse laurel]

not all together

broken down

[snow scarab]

like across AIT?

[coarse laurel]

the scout OSUT one was 16 miles for the final ruck to get your sabers

across the final field problem

[snow scarab]

ah ok

[coarse laurel]

its weird because for the medic one we had our own FOB to run

[snow scarab]

ours was just about 15 and i got stuck with a full ruck and a crater 🥲

[coarse laurel]

the ruck was a simulation of leaving an overran fob

the final night attack we are designed to lose and it ends with a broken arrow and a mountain of casualties

[snow scarab]

oh nice lol

i was lucky i wasn’t on a litter

[coarse laurel]

casualties are also moullaged realisticially which is kinda nerve wracking at times

like just blood and stuff everywhere

alot of yelling

working under red light trying to keep folks alive

the aussies watched us do it because AMEDD is trying to sell this program to the aussies so they send more guys

[cobalt vortex]

yea

i was in afghan

single handedly blew up like 12 taliban bases

accidentally crashed a chinook into a ffl fob

was crazy bro u probably heard of it

like that one time i had nothing but a rusty sks

and 3 rounds

rucked through the desert no food no water

till a kind man invited me to his home where he gifted me a bmw e30 m5 to make the trip easier

so then i pissed

went into the bathroom

admired myself

left the bathroom

and stole the bmws catalytic converter in turn to sell for crack

[snow scarab]

ah, a navy seal i see

[cobalt vortex]

which helped me escape the desert

[snow scarab]

sounds about right

[cobalt vortex]

akshually

[proud hazel]

and i was on a sec op

[cobalt vortex]

101 rrezet_ battalion

[proud hazel]

[low fox]

@granite tartan found dis

Monolith larp

[misty mesa]

i would suck dick for this

just because of scrim

which is why i am so i can buy it

[cold ledge]

Is that the British Army one? I can’t tell

[misty mesa]

yes

mk7 or 6 scrim net

i dont remember

[cold ledge]

You checked surplus stores? I’ve seen a few similar to that with netting attached

[misty mesa]

oh i know where to get it

i just need a helmet rn

[stuck hazel]

it looks goofy big on your head

and its heavy

[misty mesa]

fashion < anything

[stuck hazel]

yeah

[verbal karma]

That looks like a Galvion Batlskin with some ghillie suit or other fabric netting wrapped over it

[low fox]

Chrimis over whites

[fiery dew]

101st rizz

[misty mango]

the virtus helmet aint too heavy tbf

only when you put the mandible on it

[granite tartan]

Bully sordin owners

[misty mango]

even then its just front heavy

sordins are pretty based for airshitters and euros

and civs

coomtacs and amps will obviously be better and far drippier

but theyre also far more expensive

[granite tartan]

Amps are very frail

[misty mango]

amps are a niche

not everyone needs the modularity that amps offer

[naive maple]

The sordin battery compartment is cancer

Ill stick to the sport tacs

[stuck hazel]

pls no

[low fox]

I would but I don't wanna mess with the cover rn

I have the side pieces folded in

and I don't wanna remove my NVG mount to take it off and unfold them

[left flax]

Got called a n*zi by a fat guy wearing Ww2 German uniform at a game once. It's hard to tell if they are being ironic or are just stupid

[plush topaz]

I get called a Nazi every day

[left flax]

Poor guy was breathless for the whole day

[low fox]

I keep getting called a Nazi bc of my ethnicity and my kit

Lmao

[plush topaz]

Everything is racist. Everything is naziism

[low fox]

[left flax]

Racism is badass

[plush topaz]

[hexed talon]

solid kit setup there. personally pouch the TQ and get some of the shit on the front to the sides if you can and leave the dump pouch. reindex mags

Please I need tarkov to work. I took off from work and school in order to play this game. Tarkov is more than a game for me its my life. I need the servers to work in order to go on with my life. I dont think I can operate as a human being unless tarkov works again. My girlfriend recently just said that she would leave me if tarkov doesnt start working again. At this point please fix the servers I need it. Nikita im begging to you.

[cinder stream]

i prefer the light goes past the barrel, if i need to push someone off of me i dont want to inadvertently make my pistol go out of battery, just use the light as a punch if that makes sense
