hallow cape
#

rigid panther
#

#

250$ for a stock during covid, another 100 for a fixed mag

hallow cape
#

god damn

rigid panther
#

Milsurp shit is drying up man

hallow cape
#

i paid 350 for the rifle and 450 for the chassis

rigid panther
#

Stocks are still like 150$ rn

#

Just standard oem stocks

hallow cape
#

holy shit

#

is ir russian or chines

rigid panther
#

And it's STILL not done

#

I cut the mount and shortened it but kinda want to go back to the oem dust cover and get a wooden gas tube cover

#

It's a Chinese btw

hallow cape
#

damn thats alot to spend in originall wood funiture

rigid panther
#

The fixed mags being like 100$ threw me for a loop too

hallow cape
#

yeah u could have got some 30s for that much

rigid panther
#

This is how she's set rn

hallow cape
#

hahaha u just drop it

rigid panther
#

It'll be fine

hallow cape
#

my pops has a russian one in a drogonov stock

rigid panther
#

I just like the standard oem

#

Hard to beat tbh

#

I'm letting my dogs out but ill show my mosin in a min

hallow cape
#

ya cant go wrong with that hoestly

rigid panther
#

I'm gonna cut the barrel, get a scope mount, drill and tap etc

hallow cape
#

hell yeah i cant wait to get the rest if the parts for mine

rigid panther
#

Mines been on the back burner for years now

hallow cape
#

i plan on drilling and taping for sure that rifle just needs a scope

rigid panther
#

I have like 4 guns I need to finish

#

5

#

Idk

hallow cape
#

lol

rigid panther
#

Close enough, point is the projects never stop..

#

I'm finally gonna get a handguard for my ak soon

#

After like 9, 10 years

#

Behold

hallow cape
#

yeah once u start its hard to stop

rigid panther
#

😂😂

hallow cape
#

my god drako main

rigid panther
#

She's a pos. But she's my pos

#

Fucking handguard broke off first mag like 10 years ago

hallow cape
#

hell yeah

rigid panther
#

I've just left it as a meme lmao

hallow cape
#

wow thats fucked up

#

it kinda looks cool

rigid panther
#

It's Romanian, doesn't surprise me tbh

hallow cape
#

i bet it gives ya a nice burn tho

rigid panther
#

I just hold the mag

#

Lmao

#

It's so stupid lmfao, I love it though.

hallow cape
#

thats bout all u can do

rigid panther
#

Also unironically I've never had a hiccup with this gun, I got like 5k through it?

#

Something like that idk, I stopped shooting it as often

hallow cape
#

i got a couppple plate carriers too but no pics if them

rigid panther
#

I honestly don't see the need for a carrier

#

I've had a few, and like I have lvl3a plates but

hallow cape
#

i need ti get a set of lvl3+

rigid panther
#

If you're going to spend the money get ceramic

#

Steel plates are actual garbage

hallow cape
#

i kinda like steel tbh

rigid panther
#

No you dont

#

Trust

hallow cape
#

just cuz ceramic braks up

rigid panther
#

Shit will kill you

#

"Spalding protection" is a joke

hallow cape
#

yea i was looking at some that have a kevlar coating

rigid panther
#

Do yourself the favor and get lvl4 ceramic

rigid panther
#

Hit once and coating is gone

#

With ceramic yes it breaks apart, but there's more that goes into it than just that

#

Even the small broken chucks of ceramic are still far better at catching rounds and steel

hallow cape
#

yeah i guess u are rite

rigid panther
#

Not to mention a 20in AR with standard m855 will punch right through steel lvl3

#

You're done for

hallow cape
#

yeah

rigid panther
#

Steel is like the worst option you can get man tbh, I'd recommend lvl3a Kevlar over steel tbh

#

While it's not rifle rated yes, there's 0 Spalding with Kevlar

#

You're not doing to just die regardless of the round being stopped, it's gonna fucking hurt yeah but you have a far better chance at survival

#

Because also take into consideration that most crimes are not used with rifles

hallow cape
#

yeh that make perfect sence

rigid panther
#

Or rifle calibers, it's mainly pistols

echo jay
#

Mfw I get shot and Spalding basketballs come out of my armor

rigid panther
#

Tbh I think armor is overrated

#

If you're in that scenario every second counts

#

Grab your rifle and fucking go

#

I'm not tryna be the guy that's putting on a carrier while someone is breaking into my house or whatever. I'm gonna take those seconds to grab my gun and start moving to a position where I have eyes on target. Which you also have the advantage in this scenario, you know the layout of your house. Chances are, the intruders dont

does anyone have experience of the Ops Core RF1 helmet? Been planning to get one but i haven't any real proof like videos of their durability (deformation and penetration values mostly). I'm also interested in any experiences if you've heard that anyone has catched a round to the nogging while wearing this (concussion, other notes). Interested in any stories or info on where i could find this kind of stuff

shy fulcrum
#

Their deformation is on par with a 200 dollar ACH if not slightly worse due to the cut

#

The marketing that it can stop 7.62x39 mild steel core is BS because the deformation is deadass like 3 inches

#

@vivid smelt

twilit cape
#

You can always get an ach and do that

fair acorn
vivid smelt
#

I was just thinking why is there no statistics or public incidents of RF1 helmets taking shots even when it's in use by all kinds of law enforcement and SOF guys from around the globe. I'd think SWAT dudes get catch a handful of rounds to the head per year becose of the nature of their job but still no public reports

#

Or i just haven't found any

snow scarab
#

yeah no

#

opscores are way fucking lighter than ACHs. a highcut ACH fully assembled with peltors weighs over 4 lbs. an opscore with the same is gonna be around 3.1

#

@vivid smelt idk what this guy is talking about but opscore is top of the line in everything they have

vivid smelt
#

Ops Core generally is way lighter yeah but the RF1 comes a little over the weight of a standard issue Finnish composite helmet so in practice it's almost the same but allegedly with more protection. I just want to know if the upgrade is worth the money and will i get my head caved in if i get shot with an actual rifle

naive maple
#

probably.

#

like @fair acorn said there's almost no real-world rifle rated helmets

#

helmets are for fragments, ricochets, and glancing blows (rifle shots hitting at an angle)

shy fulcrum
#

Literally just buy a high cut ACH

Op score is top of line line but not nearly worth 3000 dollars for a helmet that performs the same as a 200 dollar helmet but just slightly lighter

shy fulcrum
#

The weight difference makes no difference

#

It’s total bs that they advertise it like that

snow scarab
#

it most definitely does

#

your neck will thank you

shy fulcrum
#

Do you own any opscore products?

snow scarab
#

no however i’ve worn ACHs and SFs both for days on end

#

and your neck is way more fucking sore after an ACH

#

helmet weights matter immensely

shy fulcrum
#

Yeah that’s why I’m saying the opscore line is just high cut ACH

snow scarab
#

helmets are only meant for shrapnel anywahs

shy fulcrum
#

No they aren’t

#

Lol

snow scarab
#

no it isn’t

shy fulcrum
#

Helmets aren’t ONLY made for shrapnel

snow scarab
#

SF weighs a pound less than a highcut ACH

snow scarab
shy fulcrum
#

If we only used them as a primary way to stop shrapnel we would use the dough boy helmet from 1917

snow scarab
#

you mean the shitty steel pot that never stopped shrapnel?

shy fulcrum
#

It was literally known as the most effective variant of the WW1 helmets

#

I’m not gonna argue with bro

#

You don’t even own the product but you’re trying to disagree

snow scarab
#

modern helmets are designed for mostly full coverage shrapnel protection

shy fulcrum
#

I’ve ran the helmet system for 12 years

snow scarab
#

what’s your background?

shy fulcrum
#

Army Rangers, 3rd battalion, participated in Iraqi freedom, and medically retired

snow scarab
#

@low fox would definitely beg to differ and he’s used both helmet systems far longer than either of us

shy fulcrum
#

75th rangers regiment

snow scarab
shy fulcrum
#

Gentex made the ACH

#

lol

snow scarab
#

gentex≠opscore

#

gentex owns opscore yes. but gentex uses much older materials

#

it’s like VW and bugatti lol

#

same company, MUCH different components and quality

shy fulcrum
#

I wasn’t trying to say I have 12 years on the opscore, I meant I have 12 years experience on the ACH and MICH

#

Systems

#

After transitioning the opscore I’ve noticed very little difference in weight

#

But that’s probably because my neck is so fucked

snow scarab
#

most likely why. and once you have it with everything on it, weighs about what an ACH does. but with much much more capabilities

shy fulcrum
#

I will say the opscore system is much more comfortable to use with night vision devices

#

But I’ve never loved high cut helmets

#

In general

#

Actually I’ll make one acception to that

#

I love the crye airframe system

#

Just because it has a dedicated venting system for my sweaty head

twilit cape
#

I kinda wanna pick up an ach

shy fulcrum
#

They’re very pretty

vivid smelt
#

my wartime duty is MOUT stuff so i'm mostly worried about bullet impacts from like 5 meters away inside rooms and maybe shrapnel on top of that. any suggestions on what i should run and if i should even switch my mich style composite helmet for a high cut (earpro hurts like hell after a few hours in that composite helmet)

snow scarab
snow scarab
#

do you have gel cups?

vivid smelt
snow scarab
#

they shouldn’t wear that fast

#

even compressed together they should last for a few years

vivid smelt
#

yeah mine started leaking after like 2 years

vivid smelt
#

i mean buy new ones. i did have have them attached on my high cut bump so maybe i should try them again under the full cut helmet. some earpro is also really nasty under a full cut and earpro, i had crossbows and i get a headache just thinking about that setup

naive maple
#

i got a cut on my gel cups almost a year ago

#

i put a target pasty on it as an expedient repair and somehow it has lasted until now

That looks very nice. With all the paddings etc

Not very lightweight though

my current carrier has an elastic cummerbund, which i have always considered a must.. but this carrier solves it by attaching with bungee cord in the back instead of velcro

a much better solution

I bought PALS cummerbunds since I think more is more when it comes to attaching things 😂

i wasn't after one of these trendy ones, but this one showed up for the g19 and i got a good price

#

funny hawaii pattern

marsh flint
#

Can't remember this exact model

#

You have any clue?

#

It has the thumb lock

#

Obviously it was a loaner but it is the best I've used

#

Cons are that there are not too much space for the dot

marsh flint
naive maple
#

its an older model with the rotating hood

#

the ones i have just have a lock in the ejection port

marsh flint
#

I guess it is the RH 7360-835-411

#

In the woods

#

MP's drop them in the woods occasionally

naive maple
#

oh so it has the lock in addition to the hood?

marsh flint
#

Yes

#

If I got what you meant

#

So there is a thumb operated lock on the thigh side

#

And that loop locks in place

#

Pust it down and move it out of the way

#

Oof this doesnt help me at all

#

Why don't they state the model there

#

Couldnt care less for their patents

naive maple
#

thats just the hanger anyway

#

model is on the holster body

#

Yup

#

Didn't know that back in the day

they have gotten very hard to get after the ITAR and commerce dept changes

because magazines with a capacity of 60 and above are considered super scary war materiel by the US federal government

It was meant for stopping small caliber handgun ammo

Up to 5.45x39

Soft ammo yes

snow scarab

no. it will not. as an objective fact. it moves too fast

3mm of titanium doesn’t stop rifle rounds of any kind

FMJ 545 of any kind are going to pen

I guess he was being crazy

most likely yeah

fair acorn
#

source: trust me bro

dusk yoke
#

Fought 3 wars

snow scarab
#

doesn’t matter if he didn’t take any rounds to the head

#

realistically he probably got told it, believed it, then passed it down

dusk yoke

And he believed it

#

But now I assume it can only stop small caliber handgun ammo and shotgun pellets

#

Buckshots birdshots

#

yeah neither the russian military nor the chechens are very good at actually telling their soldiers the major downsides of their gear

naive maple
#

most guys that survive wars and gunfights survive because they're lucky, not because their knowledge helped them

fair acorn
#

Is he a FSB officer? Your average troop of Chechnya war only gets the titanium watermelon helmet

dusk yoke
#

But when he was fighting in Afghanistan war he was a rifleman

fair acorn
#

real

snow scarab
#

interesting. but yeah, especially in afghanistan i’ve heard stories of those guys being told absolutely outrageous things about their body armor, helmets, and rifles that just weren’t true

fair acorn
#

I guess information are not widely available back then... or just a psycho effect to boost morality

snow scarab
#

they still do it today

#

russian military claims that the barely issued hard body armor can stop 6 rounds of 12.7x109

yes that what I mean

#

barely issued hard body armor got stolen and sold on the internet lol

i actually have a legit question for you. is it true that the issues ratnik armor comes with full ceramic coverage? like your entire torso, back, and sides?

#

obviously if you can’t say due to opsec i get it. but i’ve heard conflicting things about it

But I mostly weared plate carriers

god that looks so uncomfortable and heavy 😂

this is already 40 ish pounds without magazines

and that’s medium front and back and 6x8 side plates

fair acorn
#

Let’s be real that’s why it is the average armour of troops

snow scarab
#

there is a such thing as too much armor

fair acorn
#

People always says issued stuff are shit

#

I personally agree on this statement

snow scarab
#

tbh, modern issued shit is only shit compared to aftermarket shit. new issues body armor in the US is pretty swag tbh

#

especially with how lightweight our hard armor plates are

fair acorn
#

👀

#

Tell me more about it. Do US army still uses SAPI plates and ESAPI plates?

It's more like defensive armor if you wear complete set

PGD has some sketchiness about their body armor. helmet is fine. plus i don’t think that’s the actual site

naive maple
#

that is the actual site

#

i have bought from them

#

what is "sketchy"

snow scarab
#

where it comes from

#

there was a whole thing with their helmets originally being chinese

#

now they say it’s all from denmark and the netherlands. but i’m still a little sketched out by it

naive maple
#

yes, they used to sell chinese things, now they source them in europe

#

there was a transition period

#

i've never seen them claim a chinese product was made in europe

#

i contacted them in april 2020, at which point they were in the midst of phasing out chicom stuff

#

bought my stuff in 2021
