That leg strap for the holster seems entirely unnecessary

The battle belt seems decent, everything about that carrier screams Chinese knock off trash tho

Anyone have some files for a taggila helmet because that seems to be the only thing I can’t source from a store or make

#

Also got that sledge head printed now

You can find one anywhere

#

You just need the cyrillic obey sticker

And voila

It’s a old Russian one

And the ones that there selling are slightly different so I can really copy them or there just not like the one taggila wears

I’ll probably take the covers off most of the time, the light goes further without them

The backlighting is amber too so it’s got the aesthetics

i get to have way more fun than you ever can lol

#

and i can do it at any time and any day too!

#

at least people aren’t chopping each other up with machetes. and gun violence has lessened every year since the early 2000’s not to mention their was little gun violence before restrictions happened

#

so about 1.2 million crimes were committed with firearms in the US last year

#

sounds like a lot right?

#

6.7 million knife crimes in the UK last year

#

knife and gun crimes in the US don’t even meet the UKs knife crime together

#

not to mention a couple hundred thousand crimes a year are STOPPED by firearms in the US

#

anyways, cope and sneed that you can’t have a basic right to protect yourself

#

y’all really believe gun violence is wayyy more blown up than it really is

#

POV the EU kid

snow scarab
#

let’s also not forget that a majority of D-Day was planned by americans, and americans were almost exclusively the ones who took on the sectors with the heaviest amount of fire. so much so that while canadians sipped on their tea and committed mass war crimes on german POWs due to how easily they took their beaches, americans were still fighting through fire so intense that mg34 and 42 barrels were melting due to such high volumes of fire

lol no

God forbid I roll the truck 💀

plush topaz
#

Yup. That’s a good attitude

low zodiac
#

It’s in a good spot for what I’ll be using it for at least, stock the truck is more than capable of doing most trail riding

#

It’s just the technical stuff I’ll struggle with

#

Might invest more into the broverlanding/sustainment route than raw offroad power

#

It adds up super fast when you add wheels, sliders, skids, bumpers, regears, and all the other shit that makes off-roading easier

But just a rooftop tent and a auxiliary power system would be about 2k

#

And I’ve already got a nice rack to complement it

Harsh terrain also crossing gaps between water or mud etc also how you can tell what people are wearing by their footsteps bc that bag is gonna change how your weight effects the ground, there’s multiple reasons why big bags suck

#

But yeah really depends where you are and what your intentions are

#

The sound of gear like that too if you don’t have things packed right can alert wildlife if your camping/hunting

#

Pick your gear right bc it just doesn’t work everywhere

You are right too, man’s gonna be leaving one hell of a trail and disturbing more of the environment than you rlly need it’s easy to track people that are wearing gear like that especially a vest and helmet

#

yeah, but western armys arent know specifically for offbrand mockba shoes because they were issued foot wraps and shitty boots

#

Also your effect on the ground as I mentioned, if your walking with a pack on and a pasgt helmet and a rig full of equipment and you go down terrain the wrong way or go through terrain you didn’t expect like mud or water you would wish you had kept everything manageable

#

Then you also have the aspect of weather protection and how the elements are gonna effect it, if it gets wet then it’s gonna be a lot heavier, if you have to cross water too you need everything In waterproofing and preferably you want a bag you can also use for floatation bc a bag that has good waterproofing can do that so just think of the full picture

#

From going through vegetation like that you could try crouching through bush that’s so thick you can’t even cut a path to walk through with a bag on etc it’s a really fun time getting snagged and torn up all when you thought it would be pretty clear or your machete can do the work but some bush is just too thick even when you prepare for it

iirc they're like a handmade shoe by a guy who'd been making shoes for his whole life. from what i saw they're real leather, the stitching is good, and I think my guy has had them for a few years now.

I am sorry Sir, the Beretta 92 series is all garbage. Period. Doesn't matter if hard used 30yo M9 that was put away wet or brand new out of box 92FS. All garb.

muted gate
quaint harness

And most of the M9's in service were not ran into the dirt. Not even a major percentage of them. Hardly any of them saw any kind of combat action. And pistol qual over 30 years isn't going to clap out the weapon where it suffers failures everytime it hits a range.

I had to shoot tea cupping my weapon.

#

almost as if it was clapped out sshhdoge

#

@plush topaz gaze upon this alcoholic

quaint harness
#

Explain to me how a weapon that is hardly ever actually used is going to be clapped out?

muted gate
#

if your magazine release fucking twangs off into the aether, seems like it was used a fair bit man

quaint harness
#

Maybe in a Weapons Co. Where they are constantly doing gun down, side arm transition drills.

plush topaz
#

A military gun used for quals is never used?

#

News to me

quaint harness
#

Quals are at most 75 rounds.

#

Maybe 150 through day 1 and 2. At the EXTREME

#

Quals are every 6 months.

#

So, 300x30 = 9k lifetime rounds through the weapon.

#

In like the most extreme of qual scenarios.

#

Marine Corps pistol qual is 40rds.

#

for 2.4k rds in 30 years. Gonna tell me that will clap a gun out? Maybe if it is never cleaned and maintained.
