No it’s bad

@raw river are you bringing your radio over tonight

[raw river]

[granite tartan]

@fluid plover

When am I getting mod

[fluid plover]

As soon as Teletubbies are meta.

[granite tartan]

That shit won’t be here till tomorrow

[raw river]

i know

fucking ups

[granite tartan]

I’m still waiting on my supressor it’s okay

[stoic bolt]

that altyn practically pristine

[raw river]

ima answer the door naked except for my plate carrier cause they piss me off

[granite tartan]

Why would you want an altyn

They’re shit

[raw river]

who is out here buying a real helmet for airsoft and reenactment

[stoic bolt]

Seller is away for 7 years it said

[fluid plover]

Give me one too.

[stoic bolt]

Nvm

[granite tartan]

Come to sc

Come snuggle

[stoic bolt]

Its a piece of history buh and who doesn't want a titanium bullet resistant helmet

[granite tartan]

I don’t

Cause it’s bad

[stoic bolt]

besides the fact that its only rated for pistol rounds

[granite tartan]

All helmets

[raw river]

https://www.amazon.com/Maska-1-Russian-Spetsnaz-Tachanka-Costume/dp/B0B51HCDLG/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=altyn+helmet&qid=1676384062&sr=8-1&ufe=app_do%3Aamzn1.fos.f5122f16-c3e8-4386-bf32-63e904010ad0 heres one that isnt 1800

[granite tartan]

Literally

[stoic bolt]

Maska would be more practical

[stoic bolt]

I already have replica

but replicas dont stop bullets

Maybe .22 on the visor

[raw river]

bruh you could get a much lighter helmet for 1800

[granite tartan]

I like this thinking

[raw river]

according to russian propaganda altyns can stop 7.62x51 lmao

[granite tartan]

Wouldn’t surprise me

Probably deface the shit outta it

And still kill you

[stoic bolt]

some guy tested his maska-1sch and I believe he mag dumped it with a scar

[raw river]

wait GT did an altyn test

[stoic bolt]

not sure if it was 556 or 762x51

[granite tartan]

Why would I want a helmet I can’t mount nods too

[stoic bolt]

but it stopped all of the rounds

[raw river]

considering it weighs 4kg it better

[granite tartan]

Lol

[raw river]

fucking 9lb helmet

[granite tartan]

Almost 9 lb pric

[raw river]

how much does an ops core weigh?

[granite tartan]

2-4lbs

The sf weights 2.31

[stoic bolt]

I mean those helmets were made for urban warfare so realistically not meant to be out in the field

[granite tartan]

Rf1 is like 4lbs

I’d rather have night vision

Then to not be able to see

[stoic bolt]

referring to "those helmets" i mean the maska and altyn

[granite tartan]

Rather have nods

Again

[stoic bolt]

to be honest vision is not that bad in maska

[granite tartan]

Bruh

[raw river]

drill a mount into the helmet

[stoic bolt]

But I guess if you don't have a risk of getting shot in the face point blank or any other field setting nods would be better

[granite tartan]

You don’t know what you’re talking about

[stoic bolt]

Buh i have one

[granite tartan]

How old are you

[stoic bolt]

its impossible to aim down the sights of a gun with a stock

[raw river]

look here i have 1400 hours in tarkov im basically a tactical expert

[granite tartan]

Baja blast vision

POV

[stoic bolt]

Those are cool but expensive as hell

[granite tartan]

Be less poor

[stoic bolt]

I'm not paying 7000 dollars to be able to see better during night time

[fluid plover]

I thought you had a cat on your head for a second.

[raw river]

https://hrttacticalgear.com/product/hrt-2-band-molle-cummerbund/

is this cummerbund any good

[granite tartan]

You mean see at night

The black is what you see in your peripheral

[stoic bolt]

Ok realistically when are those going to be worth the 7k

[granite tartan]

Nightvision is a super power you can buy

Hunting people in the dark with extreme prejudice

[stoic bolt]

When you doing that though

[granite tartan]

Every day

[stoic bolt]

Cap

You thug hunting with those?

[raw river]

you cant even use your night vision while on duty

[granite tartan]

I can

[stoic bolt]

Cap

[raw river]

they let you use non issued equipment?

[granite tartan]

Mhm

Or. I gut hunting

Night hunting

[stoic bolt]

You thug hunting at night?

I guess if that's your profession its worth

[granite tartan]

Being able to see in the dark period for shooting is Amazing

[stoic bolt]

But I'm not paying 7k to see in the dark I'll just buy a flashlight

[granite tartan]

Mhm

Pay half of that get a mono

[stoic bolt]

If you are in military I understand

[granite tartan]

So much cool shit you can do at night now

In the woods yada yada

[raw river]

oh shit i still need to buy a light

[stoic bolt]

Start wanking the peterson in the middle of the woods at night and no one can see you

[granite tartan]

I mean yeah

Night vision shooting is great

[stoic bolt]

What do you mean by that?

[granite tartan]

Shooting under nods

[stoic bolt]

what am I looking at

[granite tartan]

How old are you first off

[stoic bolt]

I see muzzle flash

I am 19

[granite tartan]

Home 😦

@raw river

@stoic bolt it’s cool and useful to see in the dark especially if you’re out in the woods a lot doing shit

[raw river]

[granite tartan]

We have a wall of patches at work

[raw river]

https://www.mountsplus.com/streamlight-polytac-magpul-m-lok-flashlight-mount.html

[granite tartan]

Bro

Lol

[stoic bolt]

yeah I've seen through night vision before its pretty cool but that price tag is almost not justifiable unless you have a line of work where they are actually useful

[granite tartan]

Income issue

Spend half of that and get a mono

[stoic bolt]

Buh I'm not paying 7k to see in the dark when I don't need to

[granite tartan]

Income issue

[stoic bolt]

Buh

[stoic bolt]

[granite tartan]

Noodles

[granite tartan]

You are poor because of income issue

We are not the same

[stoic bolt]

3.5k will get me half of one

[granite tartan]

Motorcycles are dumb

[granite tartan]

I have TCCC and STB

[stoic bolt]

You spend all your money on night vision, i spend my money on things that are practical

[granite tartan]

[stoic bolt]

Motorcycle

[raw river]

airsoft gear

[stoic bolt]

car

PC

[granite tartan]

Practical?

[raw river]

[granite tartan]

Your pc becomes outdated every year

[stoic bolt]

[granite tartan]

Cars are a money sink

Purely definition

Of bad investment

[stoic bolt]

[stoic bolt]

It's not stealthy lol

[raw river]

[granite tartan]

For a good tube

[stoic bolt]

cap

[raw river]

monos arent worth it

[stoic bolt]

Yea a mono

[granite tartan]

It’s better than no nods

And you can always buy another tube

[stoic bolt]

Nah I'd rather buy a 200 dollar flashlight that mounts to a helmet

[misty mango]

[granite tartan]

I can run my nods all night

[warm kettle]

"just buy 2 monos insteas of 6k nvgs"

(both add up to 6k

[granite tartan]

People don’t know what they’re talking about

[granite tartan]

You can tube the intensifier tube out of the housing

[stoic bolt]

Yall are special ngl

[raw river]

even the garbage nods i got issued in the military were better than flashlights

[misty mango]

the benefit of 2 monos is
you can lend one to a mate if need be
and you can scale up from a single

[granite tartan]

No

Not at all

[stoic bolt]

No shit but you used them for your occupation

[misty mango]

hold on a second gamer
let me just use my 1000 lumen flashlight for a piss in the woods

[warm kettle]

[misty mango]

(i am now blind)

[stoic bolt]

Pointless

Spend $30 to get told my hearing is fucked

[snow scarab]

[snow scarab]

[granite tartan]

Nah

Ima go to an urgent care this weekend

[raw river]

https://www.mountsplus.com/streamlight-polytac-magpul-m-lok-flashlight-mount.html

bought this

[granite tartan]

Fuck why

[raw river]

needed a light

[whole vault]

You 100% have permanent tinnitus. I have tinnitus from having my headset's audio ceiling too loud. All it took was one loud noise in a game and that was it. I've had it for 2 years now. It will decrease in volume overtime as you get used to it

If it's not permanent you are lucky

But the fact that your ear was bleeding speaks to the amount of damage your ear suffered

I only notice mine when I sleep and thats about it

[granite tartan]

Yeah I’m pissed

I’m still in pain

[whole vault]

Some guy ear raped me with a soundboard in Rust 😂

At least you got yours shooting

[granite tartan]

My friend ND right next to my head

[whole vault]

Wow

[granite tartan]

Confix was there

[whole vault]

Reminds me of that scene from blackhawk down

[plush topaz]

What the hell happened

Good lord man

[plush topaz]

I use a similar mount on one of my Tavors

[raw river]

He was right next to a 10.5 with a comp with no ear pro

[plush topaz]

Why was it next to his head

[coarse laurel]

Reminds me when I was a Bradley driver as a scout, took my CVC off to scratch my head and the 25mm fired with my drivers hatch on

[raw river]

Negligent discharge

[coarse laurel]

Couldn’t hear shit

[snow scarab]

no way one shot would make that shit permanent

[snow scarab]

OOF

NO

[raw river]

I'm just deaf from saws and 240s going off near me

[plush topaz]

I'll one up you. A merkava tank shot a round just ahead of me.

[coarse laurel]

Lol

[raw river]

I'd simply dodge the sound

I'm built different

[coarse laurel]

I spent 2.5 years in an armor unit and countless gunneries inside an abrams, I was careful haha

Then again it’s quieter inside the tank than it is outside

When we send the 120’s down range

[snow scarab]

c4 👍

12 blocks go brrrrrrr

[whole vault]

@granite tartan get a referral to see an otologist. They specialize in ears. That is your best bet. They have the best chance of actually helping you

[raw river]

The fuck are you blowing up that requires 12 blocks of c4

[snow scarab]

we made an over the top concrete charge

doubled up the charge 😂

[raw river]

Don't need to breach the wall if the wall isn't there

[snow scarab]

i miscalculated my distance by like 15 feet for a bet

[whole vault]

@granite tartan they may prescrube you a steroid if the ringing is related to inflamation. They did that for me but it didnt help much. I have heard ot has helped other people though

[snow scarab]

well, i was going down there for a bet

and miscalculated how far i needed to be

[raw river]

You blew up your sgt

[snow scarab]

no

it was just me with my little Kevlar blanket

[coarse laurel]

Certified private moment

[snow scarab]

yes

i got 500 bucks and tinnitus

i’d say we up

[raw river]

Certified reservist moment

[coarse laurel]

Just tank stuff

[twilit cape]

Hell yea

I miss that

[coarse laurel]

I low key miss it

No tanks in ranger

[twilit cape]

That sucks

Loved the abrams

If I had to go back in again I would 110% go as a tanker again

[coarse laurel]

Lol they are short on tankers army wide

Even after we took in the marine tankers circa 2019

My previous A co are filled with infantry guys filling in crew slots

[plush topaz]

Tanking is the toughest job

At least in Israel imo

Their deployments are brutal

[whole vault]

You ever yell "Vibe check!" Before firing the cannon?

[coarse laurel]

@whole vault

Check out our Baja blast

In the back

[stuck hazel]

"always tweaking" is pretty fucking funny

[coarse laurel]

The infantry battalion in my brigade has a “Daddy’s belt” on theirs

[stuck hazel]

they dont miss

[coarse laurel]

B co had a “Blacked”

But it was deemed inappropriate

Lmao

[snow scarab]

apparently a german friend of mine didn’t know we did that and thought someone vandalized a tank cannon 😂

[coarse laurel]

It’s tradition

After every gunnery the qualifying crew gets to name it

That and duct taping the CO on the tank barrel

And putting the XO’s patrol cap in the tube and sending it down range

[stuck hazel]

pfffff

nah that shits just too humorous for them

[twilit cape]

we named our tank cool story bro

[stuck hazel]

please

enlighten us with your sick gnarly stories

[twilit cape]

We did that when I was in Kuwait

[plush topaz]

It's tradition

[stuck hazel]

ok?

[twilit cape]

are you saying that sarcastically?

[stuck hazel]

cant diss the tank story and then come out with the same story expecting a positive reaction

[twilit cape]

I’m not dissing it, just saying I did it as well

[granite tartan]

@plush topaz my NDd

Buddy*

Foot or two away from my head

[plush topaz]

Horrible

[stuck hazel]

this comes off as very sarcastic pal

[granite tartan]

Then threw his rifle into my car

@raw river bore witness

[raw river]

Huh

[granite tartan]

The ND

[raw river]

Oh yea

[twilit cape]

@stuck hazel I’m not we literally named our tank cool story bro

[stuck hazel]

fuck my bad then pal

[twilit cape]

It’s alright

[plush topaz]

Cool story bro is a sarcastic comment

Nobody says it when actually commenting on a cool story

[raw river]

@plush topaz when is the Texas Israeli war of 1990 arriving

[plush topaz]

Let me check

@raw river should arrive next week latest

[raw river]

Lol

[snow scarab]

[stuck hazel]

[snow scarab]

i hadn’t read it all yet

[granite tartan]

@low fox fuck

I’m training with swat tomorrow

[verbal karma]

Relevant meme for the cops

[raw river]

Add a little Styrofoam to make it sticky

[verbal karma]

Or soap shavings

The fins make the best

The trick is to fill it 3/4 of the way full

Then cap it

Score the outside with a knife

Wrap stormproof matches around it

Then use the neck to throw it like a potato masher grenade

[snow scarab]

sweet shit

remember to front kick, not back kick. right @low fox

[granite tartan]

No

Not fun

Building clearing

And force on force

[snow scarab]

that’s an amazing fucking time

wear a cup if it’s that big of a worry

[snow scarab]

[raw river]

@granite tartan yo let's go to waffle house after

Hadn't had any in months

[raw river]

Man's scared to get shot

[snow scarab]

apparently

force on force most likely means he’ll be in full kit lol

[granite tartan]

Possibly

[granite tartan]

I’m getting shit

I asked to be tased

Kill me

[raw river]

Better than fucking pepper spray

Tazers last a few seconds

Pepper spray lasts an hour

[granite tartan]

@raw river I’ll be home at like 5;30

[raw river]

Ight

[snow scarab]

@granite tartan i might get the beez blunt ifak

[granite tartan]

Just get a cro

Had a dude try to talk me into buying a canik

[raw river]

Was it @neat barn

[snow scarab]

how much is it for just the pack?

[granite tartan]

$200

[snow scarab]

yeah hell no

[granite tartan]

https://cdn.shopify.com/s/files/1/1223/6764/products/CRO_ProductSilo_HybridIFAK_Camo3_960x.jpg?v=1625688012

It’s huge and a Fanny pack

[granite tartan]

Probably

The canik shot nice

Not going to lie

[snow scarab]

yeah but 200 without a fanny pack?

[granite tartan]

What?

[raw river]

Delete this

[granite tartan]

They shoot well

[raw river]

We need glock propaganda

[granite tartan]

Without a Fanny pack?

[raw river]

Not canik propaganda

[granite tartan]

Caniks are fine they’re just a meme

[snow scarab]

fucked it up

thinking too fast

[granite tartan]

And don’t have any holsters worth a shit

[snow scarab]

without a kit i meant

[granite tartan]

Find anything that size nir/cordura

That is same price

[warm kettle]

naw you guys use fanny packs

[granite tartan]

Yeah so does Marsoc

[warm kettle]

that is honestly kinda gay

[granite tartan]

Sorry I don’t want to screw up my back sitting in a patrol car all day

3 years to get off patrol kinda sucks ngl

@snow scarab getting my car next month

Can’t wait ngl

@warm kettle how old are you

[warm kettle]

oh wait you a cop or some shit

in that case no that makes a little more sense

[granite tartan]

I’m not

Wendy’s

[warm kettle]

sure

[snow scarab]

i don’t need something that size since i already run medical on me

[raw river]

@granite tartan road work on long town

[coarse laurel]

Not all set ups are equal, people fail to realize your setup has to be vastly different from being a dismount to literally just doing light infantry shit being in the woods and wilderness

@snow scarab this shit infuriates me

People who run sustainment pouches when doing static ops or raids

[snow scarab]

which part? lol

also i might be fucked

[coarse laurel]

Hm?

[snow scarab]

i might get thrown into tanker

[coarse laurel]

Lol

[snow scarab]

im tryna get my uncle to get me moved to 11b lol

[coarse laurel]

If u do I work down the road from the AIT

[snow scarab]

we’re in some completely different area in benning apparently. we don’t work with the AIT classes or the drills

[coarse laurel]

Uh yeah it’s called harmony church

I can’t see where the fuck else they will put you because that’s where all the tanks are

Sand hill and harmony church are different areas

Sand hill is infantry

It’s on the other side of post

Harmony church is more remote

[storm peak]

People who put sustainment pouches on the ruck floor me

[snow scarab]

i meant the infantry portion, didn’t know the tankers were near you lol

[storm peak]

Gl, I only have the tactical expedition ones

[coarse laurel]

I thought you said you are reclassing to 19K

[snow scarab]

possibly yeah

hasn’t been made official, still got like 3 months until our final “decisions” are being made

that’s why i said i’m tryna get my uncle to change me over to 11b for reclassing instead of 19k

i didn’t eat enough play do as a kid for that. although i am gonna do a ranger contract when my contract is up with the guard

[coarse laurel]

Yeah it does

Being in a brigade combat team is suffering

That’s why I’m happy I’m working in ranger school for 4 years

I get to do cool shit, jump out of planes, do helo casting

And get decent medical training

[snow scarab]

yeah. i got 4 years to build myself up

take it off the rip

balls to the fucking wall

how tall are you?

and you do any 20 milers yet?

yikes

i used to be that lol

well just for most AITs you’ll be doing 12 with upwards of 60

and iirc SF selection does 20

with an absurd weight

ACFT

not APFT

tf

that’s dumb

[storm peak]

Eh either way there's no more door kicking in the middle east

I forgot that nts wasn't in for the apft days

Doubt they have, biggest consumer base for them was mil contracts. Most of my portable equipment from them is contained in a mystery ranch bag

[snow scarab]

damn near anytning labeled SPEAR is socom only

[storm peak]

They didn't issue me the spear line of packs with my spear issue, I have the tactical expedition ones

I dunno, want me to take pic of em?

Ight 1 sec

Not the best of quality but it'll do

Last February? Give or take

One has the vertical pouches like the tactical expedition

Ye that's one of em

I'm not

Intel nerd

I'm considering buying a long rifle pack for next years bear hunt

I just don't know where to start with those

[coarse laurel]

I love mystery ranch

I got their assault pack and trauma bag

[storm peak]

That pack on the right, my office is full of dem bitches

[fickle bison]

Picked this up for $200 set. Anyone know how good these are?

[snow scarab]

he’s not he is simply attached

[snow scarab]

lucky fuck

[raw river]

@obsidian wolf what cummerbund did u get for your 0300

[storm peak]

Ye I stated that right below it

[raw river]

Been looking at the HRT 2 band

[snow scarab]

what kind are they?

need the type

[fickle bison]

Hesco I think it's made by hesco

[snow scarab]

take a picture of the back

ik it’s hesco, i need to know what kind of hesco

[snow scarab]

you saved like 50%

[raw river]

Is the 2 band any good I prefer low profile cummerbunds

[snow scarab]

@fluid root did you post about the spear recce in quality tactical gear? 😂

[snow scarab]

get the AXL at that point

toobs

[raw river]

The what

[snow scarab]

AXL equinox

low pro structural cummerbund

has first spear tubes

got a notification about it randomly and i’m like no fucking way 😂

[plush topaz]

God I love multicam tropic

[snow scarab]

sexy man, gross camo

[granite tartan]

multicam tropic looks cool

Just not that great

[plush topaz]

I'm a fan. I never see anyone use it so I always grab it

Got a few holsters in mc tropic too

[granite tartan]

It’s hard to find

And outshone by multicam

It’s literally all it is

[plush topaz]

Yeah

[snow scarab]

💀

you are different habibi

see, you built like an ox, it’s different

big men make any camo look good

[granite tartan]

I did t see this

Goofy

[snow scarab]

gross

[plush topaz]

@low fox you use tropic?

Dope

[plush topaz]

I'm a sucker for rg

Only multicam things I own are hats

All the colours of the Larper Rainbow

[snow scarab]

helmet cover

[snow scarab]

so black people got it going

[verbal karma]

Idk I think Kryptek can be pretty cool

A&M core of cadets AMU runs it as their uniform for competitions

I'd always go to big competitions and see a big group of them in Highlander fatigues

some even had some of those custom crye knockoffs in highlander

https://youtu.be/qvBrqBDNY1U

I was at this match

These guys were pretty good

None of the ones in the video had to crye style pants

IIRC the one closest to Russell is the coach

I miss when Karl was making good content like this

He went too political and alienated half his audience

it was worse in his discord

He basically was just simping every day for a bunch of furries that were constantly derailing conversations and posting nsfw content in unrelated channels

[misty mango]

sounds about right

[granite tartan]

Bro you a cop what

[whole vault]

Do you think it will have their sweat stains on it? 👃 sniff snifffff

😁

[whole vault]

You want to do selection that old?

[snow scarab]

don’t you have to be 3-5 years in anyways to go to selection realistically?

[snow scarab]

DAMN

really?

that’s fucking nutty

fair enough

[whole vault]

😂

[verbal karma]

Have you seen the pics of Jeff Gurwich on deployment?

Dude had grey hair already

[plush topaz]

@granite tartan nods ordered

[verbal karma]

I’m ordering a thermal scope today

Soon as my bonus hits my bank account

[granite tartan]

Whatcha get

[plush topaz]

https://www.rangeviewsports.ca/product/gsci-night-vision-advanced-tactical-monocular/?attribute_model=ECHO+Green

Good starter unit

[granite tartan]

That cost holy fuck

[snow scarab]

it’s in canadian

[granite tartan]

Dude $11k for white phos

[plush topaz]

I know dude

Pain

2 grand more for binos base model

But id rather save even more for a nice nice unit

[granite tartan]

With night vision there is no such thing as starter

The money sink is deep

But trying to justify a ducking $12k

Investment on like some mid tubes is unreal

@plush topaz I paid $9k for my 1531s

For some perspective

[plush topaz]

I know

But Canada bro

[granite tartan]

Move to boca

[plush topaz]

That’s 12k Canadian.

And your tubes are superior

It sucks

[granite tartan]

Both my tubes are above 2376 FOm

[plush topaz]

That’s big

Anyway. I’m stoked

[verbal karma]

You have to understand something

There are two companies that make Gen 3 tubes

And like two European companies that make gen2+ tubes

And ITAR makes it extremely difficult for anyone not in the US to have access to L3 and Elbit tubes

Milspec NODs in civilian hands just doesn’t really exist outside the US

And they only cost what they do because there’s a market

i.e. companies like TNVC and such can do pool contracts from L3 and Elbit because they have orders to justify buying a run of tubes

I2 tubes are the pinnacle of our technological abilities

Considering what US made guns go for in other countries I’m not surprised an I2 tube is going for 2x the price abroad

[left flax]

theres a group of 7 dudes who all have gen3 binos. in scotland

fuck knows how they got em

one of em let me try it on, very jealous of them

[verbal karma]

There are ways to get around ITAR

Waivers and such

But L3 and Elbit are US based companies and just can’t really export our main advantage lol

[left flax]

fuck i'd kill for gen 3s mang

heck, even gen2

[verbal karma]

Except when the US government just abandons 1000s of units in Afghanistan

Now the Taliban has better NODs than most European soldiers

[left flax]

thank god they dont know how to use most of the stuff left

still love that blackhawk video

[verbal karma]

The fuck you mean

Youtube exists

[plush topaz]

I have a lot of my gear illegally exported from The states

[verbal karma]

Not that hard to use a PVS-14 lmao

[left flax]

im talking about all the big shit

[plush topaz]

I'm just happy to have nods. Elbit won't even answer my shops emails lol

[verbal karma]

“Illegally exported” (stuffed in his trunk when he drove down to Seattle or Detroit or wherever)

[plush topaz]

Lol. Us sellers who ignored itar and shipped anyhow

[verbal karma]

Like what?

[plush topaz]

My dbal a2

[verbal karma]

Oof lol

[left flax]

is it ITARs that deals with like, milspec sights and shet

[plush topaz]

Trigger packs.

[plush topaz]

It's a lot of stuff

[verbal karma]

ITAR deals with literally everything

[left flax]

got it

[verbal karma]

Even clothes in some cases

[plush topaz]

@verbal karma the guy who sold me the laser went to prison apparently

I can't confirm tho

[left flax]

not for too long right? what sentence does shipping a laser carry

[plush topaz]

It wasn't for that.

[left flax]

ahh

[plush topaz]

Again. Allegedly he abused his license with steiner to sell full power units

And was selling them all over the place

I got that full power good good

[left flax]

wouldn't mind getting a proper unit

thought its useless for airsoft. would love to get into RS shooting

[raw river]

📸

[whole vault]

Lol

[plush topaz]

Lol. I actually haven't broken the law by owning this stuff.

Itar is meaningless here

Unless of course I was shipping actually illegal stuff

[snow scarab]

no they don’t lol

they destroyed a fuck ton of that gear

plus we leave behind everything whenever we leave. literally has happened every time

because it’s cheaper to remanufacture and purchase it again than it is to transport it

[raw river]

The nods we get issued are ass lmao

Unless european gear is that bad

[snow scarab]

no they aren’t

[raw river]

Also they crashed every Blackhawk in like 2 weeks

[snow scarab]

even my guard unit has the newest gen 3 pvs-14s

[raw river]

Mine were grainy as fuck

[granite tartan]

Itar is mainly exports

[granite tartan]

Is this a FP?

[raw river]

Yes

[granite tartan]

Itar does mean something

It’s why your nods are $13k

Itar stops us from exporting stuff outside the US

[plush topaz]

Saying legal wise.

[granite tartan]

Once it’s the US even imported it’s stuck here

[plush topaz]

It isn't illegal to possess an item in Canada that's itar restricted in the states.

Unless the item is illegal in Canada

[granite tartan]

Makes sense

I’m saving up for a Wilcox raid Xe

[plush topaz]

Yes.

It's an old unit too. Laser devices Inc. Before steiner even owned them.

[granite tartan]

I’ve only used a civ one

Sucks

[plush topaz]

I’d love to do a comparison

I have 2 mil spec lasers

[storm peak]

It's both exportation limits and nationality limitations. Nearly everything that's "military exclusive" is limited by itar

I was fixing to buy a raptar on this deployment but I really cba to do the itar paperwork

[whole vault]

that is surprising

people start hitting their peak in their 20's and then start going downhill

average people

[cinder stream]

TQ question, I found a North American Rescue CAT in a US Army IFAK I grabbed a year ago from a surplus store because it looked like the tarkov model. Does anyone know what generation this is?

Paper work in the IFAK seems like late 2000s

Ugly camo

Found a SOFT in there as well with a manufacture date of 8/29/08

[plush topaz]

I peaked at age 12

I'm basically 85 nowb

[snow scarab]

probably 5

if it’s from 08

[muted gate]

WAIT, DOES IT HAVE THE SPICY QC

@cinder stream POST A PIC OF THE QUIKCLOT

If its 08 it does

[cinder stream]

@muted gate

Also got this behemoth from the same place as that

[muted gate]

nah it isnt

its kaolin

[cinder stream]

Found another SOFT from 08 and some IV start kits, cool little bag

[muted gate]

basically if the QC says Zeolite it burns the fuck outta you

[cinder stream]

Oh boy I feel like Steve1989MREinfo

[verbal karma]

Fun fact normal civilians can order CS grenades from Amazon

[proud hazel]

yo

what

[verbal karma]

Look up “clear out grenade” on Amazon

[proud hazel]

damn

[verbal karma]

It’s an aerosol can with a locking spray head

It also has the tubing to use it “remotely”

[plush topaz]

Omg

[verbal karma]

Kinda makes sense tbh

It’s basically like a big bottle of pepper spray

[raw river]

anyone know any codes for HRT

[verbal karma]

Just has a locking sprayer

I like that it comes with aquarium tubing

In case you need to use it in a different riom

[plush topaz]

[snow scarab]

that’s hilarious

also cannoli i lived

we just got more ice cream because yes

[plush topaz]

How are the jewels

[snow scarab]

fine and dandy

[raw river]

you got kicked in the nuts?

[snow scarab]

she snatched the mcdonald’s without saying anything and hid in her room lol

[plush topaz]

Rude

[snow scarab]

then said thank you and went to change because she wasn’t wearing pants cause all her professors canceled class

[plush topaz]

If she disrespects you then I'm going to have to dispose of her

[snow scarab]

💀

i’m pretty sure she didn’t shower either

but eh

[raw river]

ew

[snow scarab]

this morning

she’ll be showering in a couple hours for sure 😉

[plush topaz]

@snow scarab make her wear your kit

[snow scarab]

lmao

it’s at my house

[plush topaz]

I always make broads wear my kit when they come over

[snow scarab]

i don’t bring her here

[plush topaz]

Smart

[snow scarab]

parents plus sibling ≠ good time

[plush topaz]

Oh

Eff that

[snow scarab]

yeahhhh

[proud hazel]

its 1%oc and 1%cs gas

idk if that is that good

[verbal karma]

Yea the rest is accelant

[proud hazel]

i feel it cant be that great

[snow scarab]

you don’t need a lot of cs gas lol

[proud hazel]

yea but no way 1% is enough

[snow scarab]

did you read how much space is covers?

23000 cubic feet

[proud hazel]

yea and i dont believe it

[snow scarab]

the clear out has the exact same mix as the old cs grenades

the spherical ones

[proud hazel]

wow that is kinda impressive

what are the new ones

[snow scarab]

you know the CS gas capsules they use for gas chambers?

[pastel cipher]

thats about 1700 mgs, 4 mgs/m cubed is the concentration for untrained personell, 10mgs/m cubed for trained.

so should be effective to some extent.

[snow scarab]

the newer cs grenades have 99 of those capsules

what’s that

oh god

anyways, the clear out would easily clear out a street

or a house

[raw river]

the gas chamber was fun tbh

id do it again

clears out sinus issues you didnt think you have

[proud hazel]

or kills you if you have asthma

[raw river]

skill issue

[proud hazel]

you mean spawn issue?

[raw river]

nah microdose cs gas

[proud hazel]

na i gotta stay all natural

[low fox]

new helmet

[misty mango]

when the mommy helmet loves the daddy helmet very much

[snow scarab]

both are ACHs so bleh

[idle helm]

this community is the only like it I've seen, someone could have a kit immune to the entire power of the sun and someone would still find a way to complain or gripe about it.

[snow scarab]

no it’s just that the ACH is a shit helmet

[idle helm]

its not even related to just your message i mean in general, every time i open i've opened this channel throughout the last 2 years its always looked like this

[misty mango]

good

shit on everyones kit
best benefit of geartism

[misty mango]

and its funny

[timber linden]

Dude is 19 in the National guard bro

Better put some respect on his name

[raw river]

Anyone own a MIRA gasmask

[plush topaz]

Yes

[raw river]

They any good?

[plush topaz]

They're dated and expensive but they work

[raw river]

Anything better?

[plush topaz]

Comfortable to wear. Comfortable to shoot. And best of all, looks cool.

[raw river]

I care more about it working than looks

[plush topaz]

Imagine that
