What is that top rifle
Looks like a t5000 chassis
300k rouble build
i paid more for the chassis than the rifle and couldent finesh it cuz the war in the ukrain
I paid the same amount for a wooden stock for my sks that I did the cost of the gun
I feel it
250$ for a stock during covid, another 100 for a fixed mag
god damn
Milsurp shit is drying up man
i paid 350 for the rifle and 450 for the chassis
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
damn thats alot to spend in originall wood funiture
The fixed mags being like 100$ threw me for a loop too
yeah u could have got some 30s for that much
hahaha u just drop it
my pops has a russian one in a drogonov stock
I just like the standard oem
Hard to beat tbh
I'm letting my dogs out but ill show my mosin in a min
ya cant go wrong with that hoestly
I'm gonna cut the barrel, get a scope mount, drill and tap etc
hell yeah i cant wait to get the rest if the parts for mine
Mines been on the back burner for years now
i plan on drilling and taping for sure that rifle just needs a scope
lol
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
yeah once u start its hard to stop
😂😂
my god drako main
She's a pos. But she's my pos
Fucking handguard broke off first mag like 10 years ago
hell yeah
I've just left it as a meme lmao
It's Romanian, doesn't surprise me tbh
i bet it gives ya a nice burn tho
thats bout all u can do
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
i got a couppple plate carriers too but no pics if them
I honestly don't see the need for a carrier
I've had a few, and like I have lvl3a plates but
i need ti get a set of lvl3+
Don't buy steel
If you're going to spend the money get ceramic
Steel plates are actual garbage
i kinda like steel tbh
just cuz ceramic braks up
Steel spalds
Shit will kill you
"Spalding protection" is a joke
yea i was looking at some that have a kevlar coating
Do yourself the favor and get lvl4 ceramic
All of those coatings are a joke
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
yeah i guess u are rite
Not to mention a 20in AR with standard m855 will punch right through steel lvl3
You're done for
yeah
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
yeh that make perfect sence
Or rifle calibers, it's mainly pistols
Mfw I get shot and Spalding basketballs come out of my armor
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
Me when the contractor that built my house is leading a raid team
Well that's what you get for hiring the ATF as a contractor
Should I cop these for my M81 loadout?
not even m855, just 193
Tbh I forget 193 does

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
If you want ANY gentex helmets, don’t buy the high cut ones.
They’re just high cut ACHs for 3000 dollars
Really the only helmet they make that’s worth the price they have is the sentry helmet
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
You can always get an ach and do that
If you just want a usable helmet for your comms NV or other stuff just get a bump helmet would be good for the job
or your can get MT/XR if you feel extra fancy
No real helmet in the world will save you from a direct 7.62 hit expect for like some Ulbrichts titanium helmet or Vulkan 5
This is exactly what i was worried about
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
what 🤣
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
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
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)
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
I own an Opscore Fast SF
The weight difference makes no difference
It’s total bs that they advertise it like that
Do you own any opscore products?
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
Yeah that’s why I’m saying the opscore line is just high cut ACH
helmets are only meant for shrapnel anywahs
no it isn’t
Helmets aren’t ONLY made for shrapnel
SF weighs a pound less than a highcut ACH
that’s their primary function for what to stop
If we only used them as a primary way to stop shrapnel we would use the dough boy helmet from 1917
you mean the shitty steel pot that never stopped shrapnel?
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
modern helmets are designed for mostly full coverage shrapnel protection
I’ve ran the helmet system for 12 years
what’s your background?
Army Rangers, 3rd battalion, participated in Iraqi freedom, and medically retired
@low fox would definitely beg to differ and he’s used both helmet systems far longer than either of us
75th rangers regiment
also that’s interesting considering the first opscore FAST came out in 2012
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
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
most likely why. and once you have it with everything on it, weighs about what an ACH does. but with much much more capabilities
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
I kinda wanna pick up an ach
They’re very pretty
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)
buy peltors. you’ll be able to wear them just fine under an ACH
i have comtac XPIs
do you have gel cups?
no, i had a pair but they weared so quickly i didn't buy them again
they shouldn’t wear that fast
even compressed together they should last for a few years
yeah mine started leaking after like 2 years
it's just a pain in the ass to replace them
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
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
You were in regiment?
The way you say it it sounds like stolen valor, most regiment guys would say 3/75. Im gonna need to see a scroll and a tab before I’m convinced
Sorry but I’m gonna be that guy
It’s just setting off red flags
Questions like: what color is the diamond on the Cole range sign
What BN oversees RASP, etc

It's diamond colored, duh.
Be a man, bayo charge the enemy while butt naked. Balls swinging through the air like freebird.
That's real high speed low drag shit.
Smh
Can't tell me I'm wrong though
I was referring to this guy claiming he was a regiment dude
Anyone making a claim like that to use for an argument better be ready to produce proof
Not really. As long as you can reach the anchor cable on the plane
I’ve seen some short MF’s
I was just throwing shade bc he's shorter than I 😂
Lmao
WHAT
IS THE COLOR
OF THE BOAT HOUSE
AT HEREFORD
They will take anyone right now for 19K
With a 40k bonus
oke...
No height requirement that’s a thing of the past when it comes to tanks also an abrams is a lot roomier than it looks inside
mk thx

I was 19k
But do I really wanna go back in though?
@twilit cape they literally give trainees passes on weekends now
FOR HOW MANY YEARS
Wow
AIT yes
basic absolutely not
blue phase gets passes now apparently
sounds like a very rare incident
I was in ait so long trainees were able to have cars
Wow
hemlit time
like i said, most likely some rare thing like a special holiday
christmas or easter
AIT we got a few passes for weekends
i put electrical tape and it failed, then i put gorilla tape and it stayed on for some time but after getting wet and weathered it came loose too
too heavy of a helmet can really damage your neck in the long run
so it's not just our military. i think all this fucking around with snowlfakes will result in finding out as soon as the next big conflict comes
neck day all day. then i can run an RF1 with a full armor face mask with quad nods and an armor insert on my forehead. hell yeah
@marsh flint hi
How heavy is the counterweight for those quad nods
We just recently got ops-core helmets here in Finland
I mean the military police at least
Hi
That's great
Not that the previous were bad (honestly no idea how they performed)
peltors feel good on ops core
Ok that's only a legend. We respected those
Good since I have sport tacs
Sport tacs are insane
I like them 
Comtacs i cant hear shit
Oh
Most of the neck injuries I see are from jumps with ACH’s on lol
My PA who was former RRC advocated for people to wear their opscores for our jumps due to this
Bump or ballistic
My unit paid for people’s bumps
hui vittu, now there's two of them
Let me see y’all’s duty gear
@plush topaz thinking of you 😞
he went voluntarily
Good on him
you first
I had a dream and this server was included. You blocked me there for some reason

i would never
Miss you
stay safe brother. we all wanna fuck with you more

i can't believe they're issuing gear like that vest in current year
are you allowed to paint it
They ate your face
where are you serving?
is this also true when fighting in cities/towns
pirkkalan lennosto?
Did you want to be a MP
i finished my conscript service in 22
yeah kind of. i was supposed to try out for SKVJ but didn't go as planned
did you?
XD
and weapon flashlight 💀
that's the M1 variant but also cool
we had the M2 variant but no attachements but i had my own
no optics either except for MG guys and we were supposed to have like sharp shooters/marksmen but never happened
We have like 8
they're cool until it get's cold. unless you're running it further from your face so it doesn't get all foggy
Its really cold
which ones
yeah i can imagine that sucks
that's a big boi
Every second shot was tracer
do you have RGs or just XA
What that
No
they're coo as hell
also literally cool as hell my feet were frozen for 3 hours when we wen't on an exercise and i was sitting in the back the whole drive
I had to carry claymore through snowy swamp
💀💀
Last friday
Claymore itself being 11 kilos
how the hell does an ATV manage the recoil of an ITKK
aamuja
It was in trailer
yeah but still
They also shot it while moving
i've seen those but it looks really unstable. never seen it shoot tho
Also we had indirect fire simulated with TNT
And the first explosion happened like 50 meters away from me
Btw we have TRA tomorrow in my home town
💀💀
damn 7,62x53R full auto assault ATV
oh it's the big one
that's kinda cool
The one that even scavs shoot with it in tarkov
Bro i saw the smoke coming out of it
Huge ass cloud
we had those too once. we shot the KES in that same assault
damn
And there too
When
It's over ten years
Wow
Yea don't want to be too specific here
finnish black ops
he lived without sauna and koskenkorva for more than 3 weeks.. this is more than any finnish man can take
@marsh flint irl
fed kit
now it just needs meaningless patches on every square foot of fabric
i cant believe that norarm kurd went from selling meme patches to selling gear to americans via guntuber advertising
they make really good shit
i know one of the guys
i mean they might its just weird to me
after unit and name tapes pretty much
because no one here has success with anything
we never sell anything (other than oil)
unit and name tapes, are collectivally in like 2 places, chest and shoulders
yeah and i can’t really put patches anywhere else lol
they have an awesome staff, plus everybody i know who owns a product loves it
dope
i prefer the finish of ripstop compared to whatever it is they use for their uniforms
it might look better if it was as washed out as the issue stuff GT is wearing idk
Huh 60% is sikkk
Whats the basic Kossu type vodka in Norway
If in Sweden it is Absolut

Yup

😂 HUH
ahahaha
Me?? 💀
noice
Crazyyyyy
why does every larper have forward observations group merch
can someone explain it to me
i keep seeing it
Yuh check you dms
Not issued. It's my vest from way back. Short on gear here.
Wearing my spiritus lv119 under it with plates from Canada.
nice
spindrift your profile pic makes me so happy
lolll
nice. i got worried for a sec haha. agilite giving gear to guys at all?
Nice to hear from you man
Stay safe
how you doing over there
I don't know. They're sold out of everything lol
Good. Operating in northern Gaza.
makes sense
stay safe my man
Kiss for good luck
nice, be safe
Good hunting

i just love the look of mc alpine
im having a hard time resisting
normally i buy every piece of mc alpine gear i can get my hands on
i wish the details were white instead of black plastic
nice artic kit
should i buy a PSA KS-47 or a AR Pistol
dont fall into the endless ar syndrome
Yup
I personally don't have that problem since every gun is like your price+$1000
We just looked at Ruger mk4 prices. The tactical version was 1400-1500 here.
I mean damn.
But niche market is niche market
it's so good
it's worth it
it might be my favorite gun
make sure you get a mark iv
the takedown system is what makes it so good
not having to fiddle to take it apart and clean it
Yeah.
I guess this was a problem in some models
yeah the earlier ones are a puzzle piece

Nice ad

neat
Maybe he found it from suppressor shack 2 wipes ago
I remember having multiple of those
what kind of pads you got?
also check your gel cups
they look destroyed
Padding was fully swapped out for a lux liner with a worm dial and for the gels that’s just left over salt from previous user, just wiped that off
my impression of DCS vest is cheap FSB kit
heard its pretty good
I say it is good for its price
@zenith monolith I can see Geronimo behind the trees
Whats a good pattern that would blend in this environment?
auscam
Og or digicam?
multicam
USGI?
training plates?
i kinda want to buy some training plates and set up a training rig
so im not risking real plates
but if im buying a second rig i want to try something else.. and then i'll like that one too much, and i'll need to get another setup, where i'll probably make some other upgrades, and then..
Yes sir
Yeah these are like 600-900 euros per plate and not going to war yet so I train with these
Also don't have to be careful
Even if I owned real plates I wouldnt risk them
yeah i should really get some
and i want to try the shaw concepts carrier
looks very good
Link/pic? @naive maple
I have Varustelekas Särmä TST plate carrier. Made in Finland/Estonia. And in M05. It's surprisingly affordable.
As the second version of our flagship product, The ARC Carrier, we're proud to introduce the latest evolution of the Overt Combat Carrier: The ARC Carrier V2. Following the success of the V1 we knew the ARC Carrier could be better and sought out to design a more versatile, comfortable and advanced version while also re
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 😂
That has rather sturdy cummerbunds
Probably good for side armor
yeah its good to have the opportunity, my cummerbund just has elastic mag pouches built in which is not all that useful
my pc is very flappy without any plates
they are useless without plates
Very curious to see how those plates improve it
they are made to have that structure
What carrier do you use ?
ferro slickster
I have Ag3 trimag placard
Works well
Oops, mags upside down in my pic 
And no plates ofc..
Actually very lightweight while still being able to hold up to load baring capabilities
Yeah I was thinking it in load
Sturdy is probably better word
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
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

It is!
im not a huge gear nerd so no
its an older model with the rotating hood
the ones i have just have a lock in the ejection port
I guess it is the RH 7360-835-411
Yea that's "optional" extra secure so that it doesnt fall off so easily
In the woods
MP's drop them in the woods occasionally
oh so it has the lock in addition to the hood?

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
Love my Safariland
Mine also has some fuzzy material on the inside to help prevent people taking it from an angle
👍

Whoaahh these plates are tight fit
My virgin carrier cries for mercy when I stuff these
You security or some shit?
Just for like exercise?
The plates I have are damn near 20 pounds
Might wanna swap the drum for a PMAG
Still a good workout having those on
yeah
you have steel don’t you?
that is a pmag lol
I’m dumb
yes. yea you are

But aren’t you worried about the drum mag jamming? I’ve never used a drum that worked for more than 2 shots
190€ here
Out of Helsinki stock
Damn.
It is stated in the comments that it is far more reliable than surefire drum
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
they should have made them 59-round drums
Lol
Even we don't have upper limit once you get the ERVA license (10+ mags)

Oh that's like upside down
Yea fudd guns are like 0 If you have a purpose like hunting
Ah yes a fellow autism closet enjoyer
the fuck is this?
You should get some ATACS camouflage
I pant on getting some pants in atacs to run with my black softshell
I see, well over here I get mine for free
🇷🇺 💪
You can try getting the jacket too
With some certain patches
And armband
Generally im chill with what i have
Star Wars camo
Where's white armband, where's Z patch and where's cheburashka patch
Inaccurate!!
Where's AK12
He forget!!
Not really
Wait
Star wars has similar camo?
Strange
Have not watched star wars since years ago
Russian dub
I cant afford an ak12, i dont have any white material to make an armband, and i just prefer the army patches
Get a white t shirt
Cut the sleeves
Apply to your arm
Tada
I just dont have the cash for it
Yea hold on
Just going to let you know we don't just use only one camouflage
Not alot of us use digital flora now
Well I am not in normal infantry
So I have no idea
I'm in a special battalion
АКСУ very nice
Ohh, it does look a bit similar
Ima kit it out with zenitco when i can afford it
I don't really like something that's been too modernized
Just simple accessories is good enough
Just a B-10u and rk6 with a pt-1 stock
Honestly after looking at what I am wearing right now, I can really see it does look very similar
No way so this means I'm a star wars character now
I have a atacs cover for my 6b47
Russian military is star wars soldiers!
Real
You do realize we have plate carriers and bump helmets right?
Also sometimes we mix camouflage
Ik, i plan on modding it to fit my bump helmet i have
Recently got a high cut
I mixed emr and gold berzerka awhile back
We still use berezka
Well
One of our guys do
I also have a gorka as well
I wonder how the hell you get all this
Especially the digital flora
But I don't really care much
None of my business
Family, mainly my cousins
Huh
Im of russian serbian origin
I see
I am russian american but I was in Russia then I enlisted
I lived my whole life there, never visited any other country besides Ukraine which was a fucking free ticket because enlistment
Lucky man you are
I still kinda wish i was back home in russia
My family has a home in a village in Kirov oblast
I miss that place
You will have to enlist if you return, unless you have health problems, or you do a certain type of job
Never been there, but some people tell me it's nice there
Just street men
I swear to god everytime I fucking go on VK I always see Wagner posts
Wagner is still a thing
But after like 3 scrolls I see funny memes
Lmao
My uncle has been offering me a job in a arms plant
Making rifles i think
That is basically just bypassing
So you don't have to enlist
You can take that job
But if you want to get your hands on good guns
Enlistment
I plan on it when i return
Enlist?
Yes, not right as i return but a few years after
I see
I want to make as many rifles as i can for the boys on the front
Accept friend request brother
Haven't talked with many good people these days
I seen worse
Didn't you post this already
You did
Damn
still on the production line 🤣
Very nice collection
titanium helmet gamer
Just remember the real helmet is not very good
It was meant for stopping small caliber handgun ammo
Up to 5.45x39
I have gotten to wear one, but without the facemask, I could not hear very well
I know
well I dont enjoyer having 4kg on my head anyways
only weak 545 wont pen
the altyn is only rated for Br2 isnt it
You can say that
yeahhh the altyn is not stopping a 5.45 my guy
It can, well, maybe a ricochet
Soft ammo yes
no. it will not. as an objective fact. it moves too fast
3mm of titanium doesn’t stop rifle rounds of any kind
garand thumb did a video on one
FMJ 545 of any kind are going to pen
So you have to use some very shit ammo of 545 for it to not pen
Well father told me the helmet does stop that caliber
I guess he was being crazy
most likely yeah
source: trust me bro
Fought 3 wars
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
He told me some guy he was with back in Chechnya told him that
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
pretty much
most guys that survive wars and gunfights survive because they're lucky, not because their knowledge helped them
Is he a FSB officer? Your average troop of Chechnya war only gets the titanium watermelon helmet
He was
But when he was fighting in Afghanistan war he was a rifleman
real
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
I guess information are not widely available back then... or just a psycho effect to boost morality
morale boost is why
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
Oh it will stop it alright, but with broken bones
you’ll also liquidize your internal organs due to the impact
you aren’t surviving
it’s unnecessary weight
Just accept your fate when you are exposed to an enemy machine gun position 👍
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
Yes and no
But I mostly weared plate carriers
There is photo of a complete set 6B45
thank god for autism
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
Let’s be real that’s why it is the average armour of troops
wdym(
there is a such thing as too much armor
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
This is great for indoor combat
It's more like defensive armor if you wear complete set
Meanwhile Russian in CQB
Replacing my gen 2 carrier with a Shaw arc
It’s funny because the 6A plates are called assault plate so you are supposed to rush with it
That's if you're real energetic
And big man
Anyways I am not wearing that heavy ass armour when I am actually on the fields.
💀
He is like real life giga chad
Nah the sapper and FSB officer are actually gigachad
He was part of wagner
My personally favour FSB more
SSO>FSB>Wanger>average Russian military
You gotta see how Russian sappers do it
They got all these armour and shields yet they can’t afford a sight on their gun
I feel sorry for my brothers
They are enduring so much weight
From that armor
Like they always say iron sight is fine
ESAPI yes. but new generations are made every few years
i think the newest issue ESAPI weighs just over 5 lbs for a medium
nice!
i’ve heard great things about those
Spetsnaz
what happened to the FCPC?
once you’ve used a modern western magnified optic, you will realize just how shit irons are
We use copies
also the GOST scale always fucks with me
Ah yes I think that’s is the ESAPI Rev J
Very nice plates over all
I was thinking about getting a set of ESAPI from Poland or Ukraine
But the best I could find are at Rev G
Sold to a recon buddy
Kept the minimap though
Didn’t wanna give that up yet
where are you located in the world?
if you’re american i know a surplus guy
I am located outside of US that’s why I’m buying from Europe 🥲
ah gotcha
yeah but you don’t get the real clarity that we have
i’ve looked through russian elcans. wayyy worse clarity
Russian sights are shit even the Russian officers won’t use them
Everyone in the world should get an Eotech
Real
noooo
don’t
why?
PGD has some sketchiness about their body armor. helmet is fine. plus i don’t think that’s the actual site
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
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
You know that armor is a good thing right?
Too much armor isn’t tho
they're sappers what do you expect them to do go naked?
Preferably
Are we playing rust again?
yes
You know what just bring shovel stock AK
i'm naked pls don't kill me i have no loot i promise
I love playing Alkad Rust (Russian rust free)
For dealing with some dude that's holed up with a makarov or possibly an AK I don't see why not. Other European countries do the same, it's not like the encounter should last longer than 20 minutes
For the specific context sure, I assumed we were speaking in generalities
In generalities regular infantry isn't exactly wearing such gear
these are specialized police pretty much
Regular infantry are much lighter and the operations are much longer
Some Americans I meet that are chill just absolutely start drooling when they see our gear
Just volunteer for us
And you won't larp anymore
same other way around
I mean even normal agencies larp as special forces
EOD suits≠protective
my dad is ukrainian lol
😐
and my mom georgian
What does he think of us
my guy you’ve been talking to people from everywhere
both my parents know this western media is lying
Yes but suprised
this is a proxy war between nato and russia, ukraine has nothing to do with it
but let's not get into that here
Real
Wise parents
yeah mods no likey
I do have a friend in Russia anticipating a draft weirdly enough so he went out to buy gear. Tbh I feel like it'd just get stolen
I didn't buy my gear, I got issued it
meh. realistically russian draftees are being trained worse than US draftees in WW2
Just enlist
there isn't a single modern day conflict that's worth fighting for. fighting for your country doesn't exist
Don't get drafted
Is there any abuse?
Absolutely this 1000 times
the russian military has never been very well known for nice treatment of her soldiers
If you want abuse, just go through spetsnaz training
Russian military has a gender?
She does now
yeah I'm not really referring to training
your country is called the motherland is it not?
