Those must be newer meals. Definitely don’t recall those in A or B case lol
Also don’t know why anyone would pay for those
paying to get dhiarrea or constipation, the only other place would be taco bell
Why does taco bell get such a bad rap. I've never had stomach issues eating there
Maybe they have different standards in Canada
Taco Bell is mystery meat slop over here
Neither have I tbh
American Taco Bell is a great way to clean out your system.
Haha fr
How do I link my account
I've only ever had it in the States. I quite like it tbh lol
@storm peak @real whale got hits on my meshtastic device over 100km away

Just wanted to say I told you so
Pretty nuts I can do that with .5 watts
What is your medium?
If your sending voip packets to a public server using your device with network connectivity your argument is moot
Because the reality of the situation is that you won't get more than 5km at best with the generic 4 in cellular blade on a cheap medium
Send pic of your setup
It doesn’t matter. He told you so and he’s right no matter what
🙄
Hey I could be wrong, but I would like to think I have a good idea of how comms work
Actually if you could do me a solid, do a basic iptrace/tracert on your device and tell me how the packet is flowing that would be great. Help me understand the situation - blur your ip
I'm in an apartment that's 11 floors up with no other buildings or trees coming close. @storm peak
And farmland surrounding me.
What is happening is other Lora units are repeating my signal. The farthest being 100 km from Woodstock Ontario to Brantford Ontario.
And my set up is literally a T-echo with a antenna designed for 915 Lora radios.
I brought my radio to work today, and got another few hits. One being 39km in Kitchener and that was at ground level.
It's pretty cool though. I haven't been able to see where all the hits are because people turn their GPS off
But a few I have seen.
Send more pic of this beauty please dad
Didn't mean to post that here lol
That is a super high los, you must have either a ton of mesh users on that public mqtt server or you got yourself a super nice repeater. That t echo antenna is immensely tiny
Still pretty cool stuff though
I bought a different one. I don't use the one that came with it
And what happened recently was a guy driving on the highway bridged me to a lot of connections @storm peak
It's why I took it to work and I received a signal 30km at ground level. It has 3 hops though.
If you're interested. But it doesn't need to be a long antenna because the wattage is so low. It just jumps between units and there seems to be a lot of units around me
@storm peak got some brand new ear cups
Was my first time eating MREs
I didn't think they were that bad
Those the new new stuff?
I just got the gross gel pads that like to break
it’s just some random gel pads lol
gel pads are the shit
Currently building something similar to the repeater in game. This one will have digital mode capabilities using the Igate. Plans are to give it an LTE hotspot for internet access and a 50w amp for the analog system.
Still need to install the external ports for antennas but it’s coming along nicely
dayum thats cool asf
i wanna buy
xd
Finally picked up a micro chest rig
Just got some new AMP arms for my ComTacs.
Picked up a russian A18 Skanda and a New earmor M32 H Headset with PTT pretty legit
Debating if I should get amp arms
Get the axl adapters, those plastic ones break easy
@marsh flint Hey mate, do you know anyone that has used highcut helmets from PDG ?
Or maybe you have tried them yourself
A guy on my course has an issue with the amp arms swiveling too easily so they come off his ears
Is that a loose screw issue?
Most likely, what part comes loose is it from the arc rail adapter or the ear pro part?
The only gear you ever need. In bucees we trust
What’s everyone’s thoughts on Haley strategic gear I just got the X chest rig an curious what peoples thoughts are on their gear?
The part that holds the ear pro. It turns obviously so you can orient it properly over the ear. But it's so loose it spins off the ear
He is probably missing some of the washers
There’s washers and a spring that holds tension on that part
Iirc
Ahhh
Hey man! I havent had the opportunity to try them, but asked a couple of guys about it. Looks like it has 4.6/5 reviews on Varusteleka which is pretty good
I only hear satisfied comments
Just the only written review i found was from 4 years ago, with pictures of bad quality, thats why i was wondering
Thinking to buy it, since fuck the issued helmet because not enough space for comfortable earpro use
So im just asking around people that might have come into contact with those to see if that one i saw was a one time fluke of the production or a constant issue
But L size is out of stock and will be back in who knows how long, and idk if XL wont be too big for me :/
oh
well, finnish guys I know say its good. It's not the lightest one in the market but still good one, what I hear
Heh, well it will be lighter than the standard bowl we have, so it will be an improvement regardless
yeah
that guy probably got a defective model which can happen with every brand
but the return policies tend to be good also
sadly all of our gear is packed away for deployment so i cant ask guys that have highcuts to try on theirs so i can see which size will fit me better
my size is 60ish give or take 1, but L size is 56-59 and xl is 60-64, and for the bowl i have rn its an L
MICH is also recommended
wdym
Well, this wont be much different from the issued ones, except side rails and NVG shroud
yeah
By the looks on the pictures it seems that it's the same adjustment strap mechanism and the back wire tension thing
but anyway for a 400 eur helmet thats really bang for the buck what I've heard. I read that review you posted and I didn't find it very catastrophical tbh
some bitching 😄
Well main thing for me is that 1) It will actually protect from shrapnel and whatnot 2) NVG shroud is properly placed and 3) rails work with the ones im about to buy
because for some reason our peltors didnt come with those
only bad thing I heard was that one guy had one of those adjustment buckles to be "lifeless" but still has been a good helmet
I suppose he meant it was like more stuck than the others
ah
Well, ill message my SGT tomorrow and ask if they will allow us to take our own helmets on the plane, if so then ill order it and pray that it arrives in time
yeah
I only heard recommendation, like 3 or 4 guys and they said they are very popular and no blames
I'm surprised that it's made in eu with a price tag way under 1k
Well, now i've got to find the mount for our peltors, i thought they would be sold online locally but it seems that no
those are not typically expensive
Any good military related Finnish online-stores you can recommend ?
Varusteleka, Viranomainen
I doubt that delivery will take a bunch of time
Thanks
Bri wtf, camo net is cheaper, even without the 20% discount currently on the site
With delivery to Latvia
Okay, from now on this will be the sites im buying stuff from
Quick lookup, and even without the discounts its cheaper to order from finland and deliver it here than to go locally, with the MIL discount
haha
rn im checking Vira
i've never had any issues and if there are one the customer service will really find you a solution
And they actually have Lowa boots of my size in stock ? Unheard of
And if i'll decide that I don't want to buy a car or apartment after deployment I can order NVG for 10k
nice
Are they not regulated within EU tho ?
I'm not sure, doubt 😄
I think those nvg regulations consider american stuff, export ban or something
Well yea i know that sending a lot of stuff from US is impossible because of ITAR
the Gun Jesus (Ian from Forgotten Weapons) loves Varusteleka. He has his own line of clothes there haha
Well I know where i'll be spending my money at
That's what I dislike about our camping/military stores, they have prices set unreasonably high, especially for our average income
And they have a lot of fluff/nearly useless stuff on their stores, but not even something as simple as Lowa boots in the sizes most of adults here have
so 42-46
And god forbid you need like 43-44
mmh
yeah
people might not think that you can get stuff pretty close like from finland
yea
here are very active people, reservists etc so the demand is also pretty high
and those have incredible surplus deals
Well I hope it will be like that here, hell, even make deals with Finnish companies to sell stuff here
like nearly not used stuff and even brand new with price of used ones
yeah I think the nato expansion helps it
VERIFY MY EMAIL BATTLESTATE pls
wrong channel man
Everyone will win, the Companies that will profit from people buying here instead of western EU, the local shops that will also get more customers because some actually useful stuff will be sold, and the customer since he will get what could be useful to him
I get not selling stuff like NVGs or expensive optics, since gun culture here is just hunting
Bro I can even order the filters we get issued at work ???
Or at least similar looking ones
idk about exact protection
hopefully wont ever need them
yeah
ok one guy said he has had gen 1 and gen 3 of that pgd helmet and both were great
Good, so hopefully Sarge will know the answer and can just greenlight me
hehe
Because i need to order soon
👍
@compact dagger more recommendations to that helmet lol
somebody changed the cushionings to his older (2018) but said that newer also ones have better cushionings
I'll do a quick lookup on if i can even order armor into Latvia or not
After that ill buy it, if its allowed
third nice shop to your list
they also ship everywhere in europe
a lot of K9 products too!
"Total Shop is 100% Google translator friendly! Use Chrome browser and choose your language. We ship everywhere in Europe."
Neat, thanks again
But for now ill stop my spending spree, since this put a small dent in my bank acc
And I kinda didn't realise before ordering that they won't be in office between Christmas and New Years
So they will continue dealing with orders after 6th Jan
Yeah many do that here
Especially in a year when you only spend like a couple of paid vacation days and national holidays fill up the rest to get a long vacation
I have the same helmet
Yea understandable, I just actually forgot about no people actually working in stuff like this between Xmas and NY
Since stores here are open, even some of the military gear only ones
Ah, nice, but why does your headset look like its backwards ?
I thought mic ports always go forward
Those are not mics
Those are the lead ports
Well yea, i meant the ports for the mic
Not the mics that pick up sound from surroundings
Just XPIs that we got have both the sound mics and the port in front
There is no mic port on the front
Yea I get that now, just at first I thought those look weird
Anyhow, I now need to find mountings for the rails and a nice cover for the helmet itself
Thanks
Ill probably end up getting different one, since our commander wants us to put camo on top of our helmets
Ya im sure there are ones that fit better
I like it because it has a really nice retention cord and lots of loops for tie downs and cabling etc...
Look varusteleka
They have m05, multicam etc.
Yea will check it out later
First I need to get the helmet delivered, hopefully customs won't stop it, I already did the required signatures and other required stuff for it to be exported from Denmark
Doubt they'd sell in small quanitities
Agilite is gay
They make some decent stuff
The only barely passable thing they make is the helmet cover
their shit is made in Thailand or Taiwan
Then my thai/Taiwan plate carrier must be a one in a million because its been amazing. Several combat deployments. No rips tears or issues
I bought this chocolate at a gas station. It looks like the one from tarkov.
Literally any piece of gear that isn't water tight does ?
Aer you buying from Amazon?
No ?
My mom said you gave it to her after your date
Shouldve signed an NDA, Agiliite sympathizer
Tell her i'm mad at her and that I won't be coming for dinner next week
Crye or Die big dawg
Everything soaks up sweat lol
Cryes dont
Ferro doesnt
I havent had experience w the LV119 cause its always out of stock but I hear that also doesnt soak up sweat
My lv119 definitely soaks up sweat
But it wicks away quite well.
I've used agilite carriers in 100F for years and never complained

I loved it in the desert, not much in humid environments
I also wouldn't wear a minimalist pl te carrier to war.
Not comfortable at all for the loads I carry
so does every single plate carrier ever
@snow scarab
yes they do lol
source, i own an SPC
the fabric that touches your body will absorb the sweat
My AVS gets soaked if I’m wearing a combat top
If I’m wearing crye fields most of it goes on the field top
Lol
I sit in front of my pc playing Tarkov
I take out the plates too

My old issued avs would retain a stupid amount of sweat, especially in the old avs harness I had. L117 otb didn't hold much of anything, my jpc r series get soaked ez
Glamour shots of the BLK build
nice
India weapon best weapon
How come?
They are a bit pricy. At least in Canada. But disposable?
Well it's a minimalist carrier. Not meant to be loaded up. That's what the AVS is for.
"the best" to who?
Who is a serious user?
I just don't see the point in those kind of blanket statements. Professionals, such as myself, have certain preferences and requirements.
I have several carriers for different purposes. Currently the one I take on deployments as a sniper, designated marksman, and Avata pilot is the agilite k zero
And how I have it set up is perfect for my needs
My Lv119 I use for larping at home.
It is
You're going to sweat no matter what
See those qd shoulder straps wouldn't work for me.
And first spear tubes aren't big enough with my side plates on. Can't close my carrier
You do. And you aren't me.
You see my Point?
Great chat
JPC's arent meant for prolonged use, normally its the kind of kit SF cats use to raid objectives
like @plush topaz says, thats really meant for the AVS thats why it feels flimsy but it really isnt
ive used my JPC 2.0 extensively and it hasnt failed, not just using it for flat range bullshit
i normally use AVS and the AVS chest rig these days
AVS gives enough support to help with my back since i have a herniated disc atm
lol
What's that?

posted this in wrong chat a bit ago
got the patch for fun among a new set of mechanix gloves
@marsh flint I'm so confused lol
mark la rue is a guy who makes gun parts iirc
handgaurds n whatnot
he also made the c note (set of glock iron sights for a rifle) as a joke
Now im even more confused
Youve forgotten the troll
That used to make dozen of alts
Yup
It's really not hard, After only a couple messages from people like that, you can realize you're never going to have any meaningful or productive conversation with them, So theyre best off just blocked.
Some tarkov chocolate
I had that stuff once, it was really mediocre
There's a store selling all kinds of eastern european products near me, and i bought one of those
We have better chocolate 4real
Its cheap
the taste is reminiscent of whatever chocolate you can buy on easter, like those big chocolate bunnies
have you tried Scho-Ka-Kola
excellent chocolate
you should
Its impossible to find it in Russia
An actual Ars Arma A18 Skanda (Not complete ofc) Mag pouches are still coming in the mail (Also Ars Arma)
Is it quality?
I'm interested in getting some ars arma gear
Yeah it’s nice
Specifically the neck guard and some magazine pouches
I'm gonna order a sitting mat and groin plate from gear craft
Looks pretty nice
also what was the shipping time like
Depends
Took 3 weeks for me
Actually speaking off it my lastest shipment from them just landed in LA
Good isolated water tuber
ars arma ship in outher countres?
been awhile, lol. Wanted to let you know Dragon Prince got the last season up. Only seen one ep
Yeah, with the international store.
It's consistently 3 weeks or so, I can confirm.
Ye
Lol idk about it
Love Ars Arma
how do you like it so far? I'm gonna be buying mine in February
can anyone help me figure out what PTT this is? guy had it for $5 figured it’d be worth buying
.
Fellow molle vest enjoyer
Most underrated piece of gear
Very based piece of kit
A lot of people sit in the look at them and be like there's no use in it
And there's tons of them in surplus
But they are very worth picking up
I just need to swap out a couple of those pouches for some different ones
people are generally more focused on modern shit and placards
If you wanted something you could use for basic rucking or range use
It's not a bad choice
does your ptt have long downleads
mine has a bigass cord and i'm trying to figure the best way to keep it out the way
Tape
i think what i have now works fine just not the cleanest solution
yeah i doubled the downlead over itself and wrapped in electrical tape then secured to the molle with a couple zipties
thats a great idea

i need a dedicated pouch for a pack of newport 100s
Some of my buddies have done that at Christmas parties
They will keep one on their belt
do you have a reccomendation for a pouch that will fit a 32 of modelo especial
Probably a grenade pouch
Like one of the larger smoke grenade pouches
Actually
Wait
No
That's a big bottle
I don't know if a smoke grenade pouch would fit
That tan pouch I have is a smoke grenade pouch
You might want like a canteen one
actually i think i have a molle 2 canteen pouch that could probably fit 2 regular modelos
it's all coming together now

also how'd you attach that camelbak pack to your rig i can't think of how to do smth like that
We absolutely hated those FLCs when they took our ALICE LCEs away in 2004 and issued those
I just wear it over
I love these!
They are fantastic
That’s when everyone just started attaching the pouches to the IBA and tossed those carriers in the corner
alright that's what i've been doing cool
There's so many of these camelbaks you can buy they are a discontinued model but they're pretty cheap still
I use it as a day-to-day throw bag for my truck
i saw an entire alice ruck setup with the frame and everything at my local surplus store for like 20 bucks thinking about copping idk
Best pack ever
pray tell why because i actually think the fishing vest is pretty neat
I will say this is actually like a piece of gear that I recommend going into surplus stores because they probably have pieces for it
Most of my pouches came from a surplus store
They get so many of these things in and nobody buys them cause they look at buying like plate carriers
The FLC with full load is loose and baggy when ran without armor so it was a constant battle to adjust in and out of armor. In 02 when I joined we only wore armor/plates at live fire range. Other training just web gear. Then it slowly turned to wearing vest with no plates during all training and with plates at live fires. It then transitioned to always wearing vest/plates during all training so it became best to just direct attach everything to vest
ima get it then fs. it's DCU (gross) so maybe rit dye it peacock green or smth
Not a bad choice to dye it
i will say it is a little hard to adjust it to fit right especially when you throw on a thicker layer of clothing underneath. havent gotten armor yet though
For it to be a somewhat comfortable fit it’s gotta be adjusted just right and any change in underclothing throws it off. Just not a great item imo and pretty much everyone I served with lol
i've adjusted mine where it's a tiny bit loose but still comfortable and usable with a tshirt on and then perfect fit with a hoodie/jacket. not perfect but i'm pretty happy with it
i'm sure there's better rigs out there but you probably cannot beat this for under $20
been also looking at a TAPS rig i hear those are also good budget options
Armorbak camelbaks have molle or clips
What’s the small ifak on the back of the belt?
Israeli, TQ, shears and gloves. I've since removed it.
Gotcha. Do you remember the brand? Or was it shit?
I’ve got a bfg micro trauma kit and I’ve liked it and wanna get another similar sized one
It's at home. It worked great it just got in the way when I had to ruck
I forget the brand. Cheaper version of the bfg
Thank you
The black one is just 5.11
Peak has been reached.
Anyone here has a real K6-3?
I wanted to hear about head-on experience before buying one, not many (if any) seems have experienced it 🤔
Look what I found at work
Been wanting a vampire forever. Is it better to point to the 6 oclock?
I have it facing that way due to having both the Peltor arms, and the Ops-Core Step in Visor attachment hooks up on the top rail.
Doesn't leave room for the S&S M-Ax up top, so I put it back there. It's convenient tbh. It tucks away nice and out of the way next to my counterweight pouch when not in use. When I need it I just swivel it up next to my Comtac and it points perfectly forward. Or up as a umbrella light.
This is not a Vampire though, it's a M300C 500 lumen head. Though now that I have my own NOD's I should probably replace it with a IR or Vampire head.
I hardly use my step in anymore in favor of M-Frames. But might take them off and give it a go if I get a IR head. Though I do like how it is now.
Ah it can swivel. Understood.
Yuh. S&S M-Ax best helmet mount
4D pads dude
i’ve mentioned this so many times
get the ACH deluxe one
Unless your airborne in which you're stuck using stock
It not the pads the ratcheting wires aren’t padded enough
They are supposed to bring held apart but they arnt
he’s not mil
mabye a head-shrinking-tube
over the fixation on the helmet and shrink it. the rest goes under the padding
Yeah ill try that
hey @manic onyx, how's the visibility on the killa helmet?
alrighty. have a good day.
Not good
yeah, i would think so, how much was it
No idea I got it as a gift
ah
Does it bother you? I never noticed
Sadly some helmets also come with just one string, so it's even worse when made tighter
Maybe im just a bitch, but sometimes it made it unbearable to wear the helmet since they compress the sides of my head
Peak
Yeah takes a while to find one that fits right
My helmet has been outstanding. No complaints. I could see the plastic shroud wearing out eventually https://protectiongroupdenmark.com/shop/5-ballistic-helmet/13-pgd-arch-helmet--ballistic-helmet/
I took one with UTS shroud, hopefully it will be better, and when I get to see my issued helmet i'll need to check agian, but im pretty sure that thing has only 1 string that goes around the head, without extra padding its ass
Hopefully PGD helmet will arrive in time
Right we have the same helmet now
We will have the same helmet soon ™️
is anybody looking to buy the deadly frog upper IRL
only sizes medium and small available
Yes
knock off plate carrier? check. laser on pistol? check. extended magazine 5.7 probably filled with standard FMJ? check. checks out
Airsoft tier
fr
salt^
My recent additions of stuff to the hoard
Does anyone know if mag pouches by 5.11 are good ?
Get esstac. Anything 5.11 is mid at best
Whatever go my Ars Arma gear
PVE is better than wasting your life on pvp
Should see the tarkov video i made in our motor poil after everyone left lol
More scp than tarkov lol
Like real gear goes here not Airsoft? Cause my plates are not level 3 they are just my science notebooks
Get Pouches from Esstac
Ya I was skeptical of them but I've used their pouches for a while with no problems.
https://arkayne.com/product/rnv-14-night-vision-monocular/ anyone messed around with these?
China
could i dm you some questions
China Special.
For the price you could easily get a Gen 3 PVS-14 with actually good glass.
I’ve also got a buddy selling his omni 7 for 1875 that i was thinking about buying
it’s got a slight dark spot
this would be my first nvd
i’ll ask him
Rear glass should be orange in the right light. Front glass you can tell the brand from the color of the glass, and knurling of the surrounding ocular polymer.
Ideally you want Fuji glass.
2nd best buyable is Qioptic.
Ok i’ll message him but i think he’s at work and i’m about to head into my shift so i’ll send them later
Aight
Ive absolutely loved mine, been through Rain, snow, in the dirt and mud and even on for daily use and theyve done good. Just expensive
Good to go. Front is Qioptic. Rear is either Qio or Fuji, if you could ask him to get a pic of the side of the rear lens, specifically the diopter adjustment then I can find out which it is.
Just wanted to make sure you weren't getting Salvo special lenses.
For 1875 you can't go wrong with that setup. It's well priced, and that Omni 7 looks extremely clean, specs are probably good seems crisp. I can't see the tiny burn marks at all. I say buy it.
I've used Omni 7's extensively in 15's, I can vouch for their performance. (This one looks better than the ones I ran for on camera performance atleast) Really solid hitters for Green Phosphor tubes. Can never go wrong with them especially for the cost.
I am running high spec L3 WP's now. But I will be picking up some VII's for a loaner set sometime this year.
He says they are fuji
For the rear? Or is he saying both, cause it's 100% Qio front glass not Fuji.
Regardless. Send it. Rear Fuji front Qio is still good 2 go.
rear
Gettit
I mean he's your buddy isn't he?
everyone uses "buddy" too liberally these days
Damn right. Buddy.
You are my buddy friend!
LOL
Gotem
you got me there
speaking of, i got my hands on a rnv-31 from rix
i was skeptical
but wtf
Bad or better than expected
Huh
i wish i had a night vision recorder, did some night shoots with it
granted im talking about the white phos version
🔵 🔵
Okay this makes me moist.
gonna be part of submission post for the contest
Well it goes incredibly hard.
I needa get some Multicam Alpine.
Just got a Gray Carinthia LIG set in. And I got a Carinthia HIG in RG.
knife hand
I guess I should of said "I know a guy"
@plush topaz how do I make the aftermarket picatinny rail on my standard mil-spec plastic handguard not wobbly asf
I've thought about adding some sort of a washer disk under the bolts, but I'm not sure if it'll be stable this way. Maybe you have an army hack for me (buying a 300$ aluminum quad rail is not an option, considering my finances and back problems)
Sht wrong channel. Anyways
The rail is wobbly or the handguard is wobbly?
The rail itself
I'm pretty sure the screws are about the same size as the holes, so they just sit there by force of nature
Pretty sure if I try hard enough I can pull out the rail from the guard
Then you're missing parts. Or the threads are stripped
I hate those handguard rails. They're terrible
I'd rather shoot with irons.
I'm not using an optic on it, it's for the front grip
Ikr? But my tech officer also has an m16 and it sits perfectly for him
The screws should go over the heat shield and into the rail from the inside
I'll open it up, wait a sec
That's my temporary solution, the improvement is significant, but I'm pretty sure the plastic will melt the second I shoot more than 5 bullets
It's just for it to not come off while I'm going about my day
As I said, the screws are about the same size as the holes
The design is not very human
Why? I don't see the benefit apart from taking off a few grams
Yeah... Damn we just returned about 200 to logistics
Sometimes the rails are cut for different handguard. Doesn't seem to be an issue on yours
I used to cut mine because my hovek wasn't big enough to fit over the rail
And didnt grip the handguard properly
It's specifically made for carbine length handguards, the problem specifically is the wobbliness. Washers it is then
Oh
I have 3
Some are bigger and smaller
I just use only one, and on my stock
Awesome for storage and I have very long hands so shortening the stock is pretty much unneeded for me
If I do, my elbows transfer all of the recoil into my liver
So then I have to put it away like those WWI shooting stances defeating the whole tacticool CQB ishness
Btw, @plush topaz doesn't hovek decrease your reaction time? I never had to charge my weapon in a real emergency situation, but during the training we did, my hand always went into the strap because it was so close to the receiver and I either missed a few seconds tinkering around the strap or just disconnected it completely out of frustration and used one point after all
I've never had a problem
It frustrated me so much I just connect it to the front sight now
Although I refuse to use Paracord
That's fine. Once you add lights and lasers it isn't possible
Ig
Btw I got that Chinese light after all
The only problem for now is the battery life, it even survived range day
All that crap could block my laser
Light batteries don't last long no matter what
Just hope it doesn't explode lol
It uses a AAA, very practical for illuminating the way during the dark but one battery lasts for about one or two days
Sometimes I really wanna learn to make a game where you can customize your gun this way
Dual fuel lights are useful
It's just a small pistol light
And by chance it's very consistent with the way I grip the gun
If I had an m4 or had to use an optic I'd probably opt for something different, but this is almost perfect for me
nice m4
Recommend not keeping TQ on rifle stock like that
Should keep them in pouch or something not constantly exposed to elements. Sucks when the Velcro no longer works when it’s needed.
Isn't xc1 a surefire light?
I think? It was like 25 bucks on Amazon so I doubt it's genuine
Don't care anyway, it's not like I'm breaking down doors with it
It's pretty popular and I haven't had an issue with one I had on my stock for a while during training
But I'll keep it in mind since it's coming from you
Definitely China
🫡
I doubt this exact model is any better while genuine. Looks like it's hard to make something this small last for a long time. The pressure buttons will fail eventually, it's just a question of either it happens after a year or a year and a half
Still better that olight
The new negev is already obsolete
I'm not up to date on lmg's
Ik about the new magav guns, the Gilboa and Arad
There's some new guns for the army too, but we don't really get to see them
Sometimes I see new stuff on the street, but it's mostly for the front lines
Those are Sig Sauer M250's
Consistent with their new brand colors, yeah
@plush topaz are these old pics or are you in sde teiman rn?
However I do see A LOT of brand new M4s these days
Like the "just out of the plastic bag and matte black" new
Guess Biden wants to go out with a bang
2 weeks ago. Mitkan adam
I'm doing sniper course
Nice, H16 again?
What's that
16th brigade
Yes. But it's a reservist course. Soldiers from everywhere
Oh, thought maybe you've seen a friend of mine there, he's a conscript tho so no way
Not on my course but there are others.
I'm just counting my last few easy weeks before the big day comes and out brigade's also called
We're in aza March to may
Hopefully it'll be quieter
Weather will be nice at least
I died this summer lol
You're artillery right?
Yep
Nice.
Two battalions, one is just coming back and switches with the conscripts (215th) and the other is called upon to a different location altogether, so we'll have to provide all of the stuff again
Feb until when
A sht ton of work, my jobnik days are counted
Artillery basically never pulls out for real, so...
Until further notice I guess
True. So you'll be there watching over me
I want to be in zeitoun again because I know the area. But I also want to go to south netzarim because we have barely touched the Hamas gdudim in Deir El balah
They'll do sevevs probably, one battalion for one month
We've got most of the center covered, the other battalion will likely go north, but not too far
But there I'm mostly speculating
It's just more likely to switch with sadirnikim there, other than down south since they haven't been there long enough yet
Isn't 252 supposed to be covering the entire Nitzarim corridor?
I'm not sure what the arrangement is now.
I'm just sick of going into Gaza city. Every fcking building has IEDs
It was like this last time, probably will be the same since it worked fine and the soldiers know the places
Ya but you know how the army works. They'll do the opposite precisely because it makes no sense

If I've had a nickel every time I was told this 😭
I slapped them with my massive dong of Jerusalem and smited them out of existence.
What y’all be yapping about?
Scav run on the Gaza Strip
Do you like the new sig guns?
I have to get more gear for cold weather but what I have does it's job
The guys who use those are above my pay grade
They aren't functioning as a cohesive organization. Isolated independent cells of hardened fighters are scattered. Majority of their actions are sniper, RPG ambush, and many, many IEDs.
Fair enough
That's how i feel about my job lmao

😭😭🙏
Ahhh shit. So they're in to be a thorn in the foot. Doesn't surprise me, good luck out there man stay safe.
Does anyone have a LBT 6094 and if so can you take a closeup of the back side 😭
I need it for a reference image
Yes. Especially since they don't wear uniforms and Sleep in the humanitarian safe zones among civilians.
Peak Iraq GWOT vibes
you're not stranded in armed conflict irl💞
750ti right? I might still have one of those in my box of gpus
No this is r7 360
But my workbench can't craft it 
Oh cool. Uses the same fan shroud
I don’t want to go grab it rn but I’ve got the og 6990
This lol
It’s basically 2 gpus sandwiched together to make 1 gpu
Yup
The "innocent freedom fighters" that killed innocent Jewish civilians that people LOVE supporting
gpus looked cool back then 😄
yeah it was used on nvidia and amd gpus, but i dont know which one is in Tarkov
it is 750 Ti according to fandom Tarkov wiki
Impossible to defeat completely
Nope
True but let's move on.
Like IRA for UK
Finally gssh
Pretty much
I wouldnt use them over my sordins they kinda shit
But still a nice piece
It wants to be sordins so bad
The fucking beeps for volume and on/off are deafening
@potent monolith
Hovek doesn't interfere with any operation of the gun. On the tavor however I could see a problem.
You a leftie?
Damn that charging handle always makes me cream
Unfortunately
Let me see the burn marks on your right cheeck from basic training
Where you had to use a regular m16 without the deflector
As long as the upper has a shell deflector it's no proglem
So you're saying your commanders always respected that and never gave you a regular one?
No I've had plenty of rifles without one
I'm my first Gaza deployment I ate a lot of brass lol
Always good to have some iron intake
Why are the fiberglass strips covered?
Doesn't it interfere with illuminating the reticle?
To dim the fibre. The collector makes the reticle blinding in full sunlight
I always leave a small portion exposed
Does the rmr also use the power of the sun or is it battery powered?
It's an rm01 so solely battery powered.
Why cover it then?
The rm06 and 07 have fibre strips in addition to battery I think
Cover what
It's all taped up
No no, I mean the electrical tape around it
Taped because it can get knocked off pretty easily
I can only pray for your back bro 🙏🏻
My back is strong. My knees not so much. I'm old lol
This war makes me feel like I belong in a wheelchair
That's like 10 kilos of vertebrae and kneecap destroying force
My job makes my knees feel like they need WD-40 and my back like it's made of sourdough
And I'm 20

Pretty sure we had our D-Max stuck in the powder sand for like an hour near these houses
Drives me nuts that civilian vehicles drive around there
It was so deep and heavy even the humvee had a bad day trying to pull it out
What do you want me to take there 😭... Our unit's golf cart?
At the absolute least, an achzarit
We only had one humvee and a bunch of f250s and D-Max'es
One of our resupply convoys consisting of open Humvees and f250's was hit
What do you think happened
The Ford got stuck?
The best I can do is an open humvee or a nagmash
And nagmash isn't allowed on the front lines
Ein ishur
But an open hummer is
Make it make sense
Nagmash M113 has about the same amount of armor as an open humvee but can only crawl at turtle speed
It's mainly used today as a mobile command center
At least in artillery
Remember these videos of hamass blowing up M113's?
Sure
The only thing they killed there was an honest day's work of a combat engineer who carefully packed it with C4 and radio controls
And ied clearing 
I'm pretty sure IDF's trying to get rid of them asap to justify bringing new ones
All for it, let the thing die already
My buddy works for the company that makes the king Fu panda
Hate working on these too, they're tight and short. Trying to change a power wire is a literal nightmare, could take a whole day just finding where the f it came from and trying to rewire a new one into this tin can that was designed to hold 12 guys and one radio device.
?
The suicide m113
Why tf is everybody who's talking about Israeli m113's says they're called "Zelda" by locals
Tf is Zelda I have never heard that name being used
Anyone know a good Level 3 retention holster for a Sig P320 Full-size
Zelda is the m113 with rear fuel tanks and 360 degree cope cage
We have a shit ton of these
Everything is just Nagmash
Nobody calls them zelda in Hebrew
Never heard the name Zelda outside of journalism
Ikr? Where did this name come from?
Couldn't tell you
A lot of shit in the idf has official names nobody uses
Trijicon acog = trijicon
HS precision HTR 2000 pro = barak
Meprolight m21 = mefro
Meprolight MOR= mefromor
And on and on
For some reason the new m4a1's are referred to as M5's
Along with the meprolight m5
And aimpoint m5

In summary, the name Zelda seems to be more of a foreign construct or relic of miscommunication rather than a term commonly used by Israelis today. It’s a good example of how military slang or naming conventions can be misunderstood or misrepresented when taken out of their native context.
ChatGPT's summary
It's obvious silly!
4+1 is 5!
Thus, M5
A quick google search says it's something to do with logistics and simplification.
Apparently they used to call m16a3's by the name m4, so the only logical continuation is m5
Couldn't find an English link
That's what my logistics officer uses
Oh wait
It's for SIG, not Glock
I don't think there's a variant for that
Found it
I've also seen a few people saying good things about safari land holsters but as far as I'm aware the lever 3 latch is manual, not automatic like on IMI
They called the dmr m16 the A3
I hate all Israeli holsters
IMI may be on the "mass produced standard issue" side of vibes, but it gets the job done
I'm pretty sure there's some holsters from agilitie
Agilite is very good, had to use their vest once for training, super comfortable, feels sturdy, very lightweight and the pouches very nice even though it was very well worn by one of our reservists
Safari lvl 3 stuck if there is sand or dirt. The Safari lvl 2 is just finde
Was just talking about the old GTX 690 from my highschool days! Used to be so jealous of my buddy.
690 was coo
I started off with a 750
Upgraded to a 970
Been with the 970 ever since
Nikita a funny guy
Rate the fit
made my own IRL labs cards to hand out at conventions
This Tagilla cosplayer gave me a bitcoin like what the actual fuck
damn those are cool asf
I don't think I can sell them otherwise I would
Tagilla when he was younger
Anyone ever heard of condor chest rigs or is it airsoft shit
It’s legit gear company but considered budget/lower end that’s pretty popular with airsoft
fuck the LBT chest rig costs as much as my old LBT pc
LBX version is a 1/4 the price albeit missing a lot of the more gucci features
Nah i have the old pc
Also I'm just gonna get a mayflower
I can sew on clips for an admin pouch and ifak
Hell yeah, which gen?
Iv
condor belts are super comfy
rocked one of those mfers over my issued crye belt in syria
Any particular reason you’re doing the IV over the V or VI?
Honestly? In love with mine
I built this out of 100% condor stuff for hiking (and larp, ofc)
Recommendations from people who used em on deployments
GRS deployments
Aaaah understandable, nice
Probably gonna have to put socks in the bottom cause I'm running 20s
No, 4+1 is not equal to 120
starting to understand why Tarkov players are labeled the worst people on the internet
Of course. I use some Condor stuff. Mostly crap but some of it holds up fine
Why so rude
This is why I support Chinese labor camps, put you in one so you can contribute to society
I thought that label belonged to furries
This is a straight fucking bar bro
when your muscles are bigger than your brain you lose all rights to opinions of others, freak
🫡
🫡
Im sorry that my pfp upsets you, ironic the chronically online furry is calling someone who exercises a freak.
232 hours on steam in the past two weeks, yikes. 😬
16 hours a day 😭
I work from home muscle loser
jesus christ get off the internet you goddamn freak of nature
Maybe your New Year’s resolution should be to go outside more
What are you even on about 💀
your news years resolution should be to choke to death on a bench bar lmao
I love watching those losers nearly die from weights LMAO
Wtf am I reading
muscle bro is reeeetaaaard angry at strangers on the internet living their best lives
Hahaha I’m sorry the muscles upset you
No one will ever truly know
low IQ gym bro is seething in roid rage at a furry with a 3D printer
If anyone ever bumps into me at a convention let me know you’re in the server and one of these is yours for free
Don't get upset at your hobbies and post gear
I use my brain to make tarkov gear IRL, muscle bro is big angry at that
fine you dont get a labs card
Damn
I actually feel bad I didn’t mean to upset him that much
@lapis minnow can we be friends? 🙂
nope, you fucked it up
ELYON PLEASE BRO PLEASE
Probably going to devastate him that 99% of the ppl in #irl-gear and #irl-weapons don’t play or care about Tarkov and couldn’t care less about those cards
cool story bro
Mewing in the leaf suit
Or that BSG actually sells decent quality ones
For like $10
https://tarkovmerchstore.com/category/in-game-stuff
have fun buying it lmao 😂
cool story bro
Dude is so pressed 💀
What the fuck is going on lmao, fwiw I'd kill to have arms like yours
Tbh I don’t even know I think it might be that time of the month for lil bro
You can have them too man anyone can do it
Oh I'm on track, just pretty slow progress after a year and a half
Almost seems too genuine to be bait 😆
Careful now if you aren’t nice to him he won’t give you a keycard!
NOOOO
If only I didn't have a green card from BSG's merch store...
Oh no what will I do 😭
You gotta find a way to make them not translucent bro lowkey look like shit
Seconded, use a more opaque material
musles low key look like shit bro, freakish figure
like, feet people are above muscle bros lmao
I’ve literally never had as many women as I did after I got jacked
Which is the target audience after all
cool story bro
I think I’ve seen you on to catch a predator before
It's nice to have other noticeable results other than health and wellbeing
so much projection you could work for iMax
Yeah longevity is the best benefit though
Being able to physically function when you get old
You aren't natty though
big facts
(Also At work so I can't clap back proper if the pot is still brewing when I'm off I'll fling some shit in)
Trueeee
bro brags about all the women he gets but only has roid rage every time he cant perform and gets another restraining order
Dude hates muscular people 💀
freaks like you belong in a chinese labor camp
Is that you in your pfp
Riddler lookin ahh
@lapis minnow what convention you going to next?
the one your mom is hosting when I blow her old hole out
she gives the best footjobs
nah fam, I'll sic my furry guards on you, they'd rip you to pieces like piranhas in the amazon river
That’s fine I just want a keycard
gotta fight my goons first
I’m a pacifist
the furries would eat you alive sadly
once they smell a drop of blood, they go feral and cant be stopped
this should keep you entertained, more your speed
supreme thank you
I'm a furry, not an animal
@weary dune can we get a mod check over here
unemployed behavior
@swift yew I think this needs to be cleaned up
Pretty interesting human being
😂
Dudes acting like a bunch of twinks dressed up as dogs gonna do something to a 220 pound roided up monster
Unless you are natty, if so my apologies
He’s just shit posting he knows he wouldn’t say any of that to anyone in person
I'm aware
Everyone is just look at him
Definitely not natty tho don’t worry
Even if I was being called roided is a compliment
Yeah I'm thinking on if I should stay natty or do roids
Ive been a year consistent so far
Kinda torn
I am under 18 so probably shouldn't until I'm older
Definitely wait longer, consider it at the 4+ year mark after you have training on point and your brain is done developing. Many people take steroids and get shit results because they don’t know how to train or eat.
Got it, appreciate it man
Of course man, just stick with it
Don't plan on stopping anytime soon
Taking creatine?
