[frigid geyser]

although with most russian dealers and Demych included, rn it's a pain to get anything through considering the current... mess

https://www.dgbakery.site/home

[sweet breach]

Pog

[acoustic harbor]

not really

[frigid geyser]

im in europe rn sooo

[acoustic harbor]

Demych uses crypto and it's surprisingly eady

[acoustic harbor]

same?

[frigid geyser]

I meant for the shipping

paying is fine

[acoustic harbor]

he ships to another country and then per plane iirc

at least the russians now do it like that

or in general ground shipping

[frigid geyser]

huh, well... nvm then, perhaps another alternative than when I tried to get something..

at least for me it was slightly a pain..

[acoustic harbor]

what did you get?

and tbh I'm praying, as I have a fuckload of shit comming

kinda shit when you order 2 days before the invasion

and demych gets a super sweet item that you always wanted

[frigid geyser]

where you at actually ? and i got some defender stuff

and yeah

[compact dagger]

My mate ordered some armored vest and multiple helmets, the worst thing is customs

[frigid geyser]

yeah

[compact dagger]

they just hold it hostage for a month or two, even when already inside the EU

[left flax]

I feel that, I doubt I'll be getting my monolith now

[compact dagger]

and then just let it go

[frigid geyser]

ballistic items are a pain ngl

[compact dagger]

I need to find a sugar mommy/daddy to sponsor me some PPE

Just tad bit more and i'll be set

[left flax]

Same mang

[acoustic harbor]

Austria

[compact dagger]

I just need a helmet, rectangular/square soft armour so i can put it in my carrier and some small extra shit

[acoustic harbor]

literally in the center of the shithole called European Union

also Nice D2

what version did you get?

[frigid geyser]

i actually don't remember lol

a 1st gen ?

[compact dagger]

and after that I might go for my gun license

[frigid geyser]

ugh, the pain i had with getting armor into europe...

[acoustic harbor]

oh so a standard avizent?

[compact dagger]

well im thinking to order from vestguard

so woulndt be hard

[acoustic harbor]

Well there are like 20 differenr versions, like emerald, semi Molle, the SVR contract one, the Moss one, etc.

[compact dagger]

not ordering any Russian stuff since S-2 might look at me wrong

[acoustic harbor]

S-2?

[compact dagger]

basically security branch

[acoustic harbor]

just send it

best if you roll up in soem fucking FSB contract shit

[frigid geyser]

honestly i dont remember lol, its been ages, could check later

[compact dagger]

hmm yes, I now will go through checkpoint into our building fully dressed in Russian SF gear

maybe even take my CO2 glock with me which the guards can't tell apart from real thing

[acoustic harbor]

yes please do that

also russians do use a lot of western kit

[compact dagger]

Only if you will sponsor me a full set of FSB clothing/armor

[acoustic harbor]

like UF Pros, G3 Copys

[compact dagger]

i got the glock for myself

[acoustic harbor]

Lowa Boots

Glocks

MR 308s

[compact dagger]

well Lowas aren't " western kit"

shit is just more comfortable/better than whatever they get issued

[acoustic harbor]

they are made in germany

so still western stuff

I love my Lowas

[compact dagger]

So if an FSB agent is walking around in Gucci clothes he is wearing a western kit ?

because its made somewhere in the west ?

[acoustic harbor]

Yes and no

It's just western made stuff i meant

and also yes because a lotta western units use those

G3s are common everywhere

[compact dagger]

yea i get if you are using weapons/armor/rigs then you can call it a western kit

but not if you use something like boots

[frigid geyser]

honestly LOWAs breaks/degrade too quickly for me ngl, i personally prefer salomons

[compact dagger]

idk, some guys from work have had them for like a year and they are fine

im looking to buy some good waterproof boots

since last pair I got i was basically scammed

told that they are waterproof

and after like 2 or 3 months of using them they are no longer that

barely hold water out from puddles

[frigid geyser]

i mean, if you don't want to get scammed, just buy some standard issue stuff... those doesn't really get wrong i guess

HIAX are pretty neat

[acoustic harbor]

Uniforms as well

like I said G3s and UF Pros

As the russians use PCs or theyr homegrown armorsystems both is possible

[frigid geyser]

"Miaoticam" lol

Would be funny if someone makes actual gear with this

[swift yew]

@river olive

[compact dagger]

If it wouldn't be so repetetive it might work

Like, none of the same color is touching which aint good

but on a light snowy day somewhere in the woods it might work

[river olive]

woof

[compact dagger]

Hey Fokka

How's life ?

[daring pike]

I need to take the side panel of my pc and put a fan next to it so this doesn’t happen

[hoary siren]

83C isnt really an issue

Seems hot, but its not that hot for PC parts

[daring pike]

No the heat isn’t the problem the problem is that the fans spin at 4k rpm and are super noisy and I don’t feel like playing a game where sound is super important with sound so high that it feels like a private jet is cruising around my room

[hoary siren]

Can relate, founders edition RX480 was loud as hell

[daring pike]

And no I don’t have noise canceling headphones

I got Astro a50s and even tho they look like they should have noise cancelling they don’t

[hoary siren]

Maybe you need some more case fans?

[daring pike]

Yes I ordered a lian li o11 dynamic evo and 6 more fans

But it will take around 12 more days till the stuff arrives since the cases are in high demand and aren’t shippable right now

[hoary siren]

That case looks very cool

[daring pike]

Yea it’s lit I love that you don’t see the psu

And it uses the the principle that warm heat rises up

So I’ll pull cold air from below and hot air rises up and gets exhausted

2 of my good friends have o11 cases too

And it helps the thermals a lot

[rough kite]

Pov after you kill 4 pms and must extract

[swift yew]

Are there any medical boyos here? I've got a wacky gear question - ||and namely looking for trained professionals, not your 3rd uncle is a Nurse||

[low fox]

@coarse laurel is a combat medic/loader

[swift yew]

Namely looking for thoughts regarding bandage netting. I got a pretty long cut and my friend gave me some of it and I've never heard of it - I'm aware of tubular bandages, but this is actually almost like fish netting. I can't find much on it's usefulness/effectiveness as googling it just gives me a shit ton of CVS ads to buy some. Is it worth considering adding it to my jump bag or not really? Basically best guess from using, it would be only useful for small wounds where bandaging is typically harder? Also doesn't seem to really be providing much compression

[low fox]

Pic?

[swift yew]

Seems like a luxurious way to secure a bandage with cutting off the benefit of having compression to help stop the bleeding

Which honestly would just seem like a waste of space seeing my jump bag is already bulging

[low fox]

Dont trust this but googlefu says its to keep bandages on joints and areas that are highly mobile

[lucid dirge]

This Tumbler is so dope xD

[vital patio]

Pretty usefull prevents the Cutting of blood flow. if you move alot you should use it How big is the cut?

[low fox]

prices in russia

compared to outside of russia

[silver nexus]

If you want you can spend an extra $20/$30 and get the actual thing from zutas outpost on Facebook

[bleak wren]

looks like something a stripper would wear for... reasons

[acoustic harbor]

like a normal person

aren't the old helmets like 75$ a pop?

either way he doesn't sell rn

[silver nexus]

I’m not sure if imma be honest lol, I haven’t checked his stuff in a little while

[silver nexus]

I’m assuming because of the whole Ukraine thing and all?

[acoustic harbor]

yes and no

he's moving his russian warehouse outside of russia

so he won't sell for the next 2-4 weeks

[silver nexus]

Ah gotcha, that’s interesting, I should ask him about it in vc sometime soon

[acoustic harbor]

The last time I heard him in VC he was batshit drunk lmao

[silver nexus]

Or high lmfao

He’s funny asf though drunk or high, so that’s a positive

[acoustic harbor]

agreed

one thing that's a lil annoying though is he really is forgetable sometimes

[silver nexus]

Eh not too much to me, the things he’s said while high are rent free in my head a lot of the time

[velvet wasp]

POV u just got off work and otw home to play tark

[acoustic harbor]

he literally forgot that i ordered a 6B45 from him pre war

[silver nexus]

Ohhhhh

That’s what you meant

Yeah it’s prolly all the weed and all lmfao

Luckily he is pretty understanding and all which I’m glad about

[acoustic harbor]

ye pretty much

[vital patio]

calm down and clean your car😂

[compact dagger]

its just a bit of dust man

its fine

[swift yew]

Yeah seems like a luxury of if you gotta keep a wound covered but still continue doing so

[vital patio]

Its to prevent the cut of blood flow other wise you might end up with blood cloth

[low fox]

Found this cool real replica of a M67

[velvet wasp]

its just dust lol

[vital patio]

Next day mf was dead

[ornate kettle]

if posting gear with kneesocks and skirt wasn't cringe enough

[modest flame]

You think I care what's cringe? People buy me free stuff lol, sneed

[ornate kettle]

when this thing will be in eft ?

there is already stuff from SSO , clothes , backpacks etc

[acoustic harbor]

Mustard Smersh?

also why is the buttpack on the back

[ornate kettle]

cuz the Vog pouches ?

[acoustic harbor]

I've seen it with either teh vogs on the side or teh front

[ornate kettle]

brandon moment

[acoustic harbor]

either side of the buttpack

[ornate kettle]

depends how you place it

i had one back in the day but without the vog pouches

[acoustic harbor]

If you aren't a vog gunner/grenadier you honestly don't need them

[ornate kettle]

yep

[acoustic harbor]

exact reason i sold my 117 Vogs

[ornate kettle]

but sometimes you get this with vog , so you can have cigarettes in them

or smal energydrinks

[acoustic harbor]

Buttpack has about 7 liters

shoulf be enough to store them there

[ornate kettle]

we carry a lot of shit

like small stove etc

sleeping bag

on top of it

[acoustic harbor]

Don't you have a Patrol pack

or a Raid Pack

[ornate kettle]

i dont carry one

for sake of mobility

last time cuz of that i was the one to carry a radio on my back

[acoustic harbor]

Well you can get rid of it when having an encounter

[compact dagger]

where can I get a simp like that ?

Need to get some sponsored gear

[acoustic harbor]

TFD patch?

[fresh lake]

That's pretty cool. Was gonna' say it's not a great replica if you can pull the pin with half the force of your thumb. lol

[dusty fiber]

does someone know if 3d printing an Altyn or K6-3 helmet is viable/doable?

[crude trellis]

@stray grove

tks

[stray grove]

@crude trellis you are a team killer

[mossy obsidian]

Nice airsoft rifle

[modest flame]

People pay anyone on the internet, it's really sad

Although I will say the hoodie I got was more from a friend than a simp

[fierce haven]

yes there are files out there for them

[blissful leaf]

Night time fun time

Dunno how to mount tho to my LSZH+1 so idk how ima use them

Also got some photos in mountain Flora kit

[acoustic harbor]

1+ should take rhino mounts

afaik

[dusty fiber]

[left flax]

Pretty hot

[blissful leaf]

[vestal pond]

#pets Made it

[compact dagger]

already better opsec than whatever goes on in Ukiland now

at least blurred the faces and got a pic where you can't easily pinpoint with landmakrs

[blissful leaf]

Lol

Naw a redditor will give away my location p

[acoustic harbor]

Ukrainian Redditors be like

[pure pendant]

4 tetriz on interchange

[radiant glade]

does anyone know the difference between the Safariland 6390 RDS and the 6395?

[low fox]

the ride height

[radiant glade]

I thought that changed based on whichever belt attachment you went with
The holster was separate as far as I knew
Does a safariland holster come as an entire kit or do you buy the holster, fork, and belt attatchment separate?

[low fox]

some of them come pre-attached on the belt attachment

but you can change it as needed with additional parts

[jade ember]

has anyone bought from frist spear before?

and can anyone reccemd a gas mask for checmial protection

sound like a cooke i know

[frosty flint]

For the love of god, Anyone know where i can find the Rogue logo/patch? I need the IMG. so that i can attempt to make it in IRL

[acoustic harbor]

gucci company afaik

[jade ember]

Not worth? @acoustic harbor cause they’re like 700$ for a plate carrier that looks semi decent

[acoustic harbor]

Or 2.4k for a maritime one

Strandhogg is pretty good

[jade ember]

How so quality or price?

[low fox]

Eh, they're okay

[jade ember]

What’s your recemdation

I’m from the desert so temperate is big factor for me

I’m security for a few places so weight is also one

And armor is another thing but don’t worry about that for no

[low fox]

I don't know anything about what "security" entails, but I can't imagine a plate carrier being necessary, just get soft armor tbh

Unless the kind of security you're doing involves you with the kind of people other people with rifles would be after

Plate carriers are just hot in general, sacrifices kinda have to be made unless you run like a JPC or something though

[jade ember]

JPC's are just so pricy tho, and the ones that my company provide are standard chest rigs u find of amazon when u look up tactical vest

i run vehicle security for a res so im in and out of the trucks mostly at night

ive only been shot at once close

it was just so old cooke trying to mess with use

but still any stray roung could end u like that

[low fox]

bro if 200 dollars is pricy, you just need to not spend your money and start saving it instead

[jade ember]

wher edid u find 200$

im only finding 600-700$

[cinder stream]

Crye 2.0 JPCs are like 240$ lol

[jade ember]

yea thats also an option

[low fox]

https://www.optactical.com/crprjpc20.html

https://aotac.com/products/jpc-2-0

i could go on

but you get the gist of it

[jade ember]

https://www.cryeprecision.com/ProductDetail/blc06660lg0_jpc-20

same here

[low fox]

good stuff doesn't have to be expensive dude

most of these companies were started by guys who were living off of junior enlisted military paychecks

you can get started for pretty cheap

[jade ember]

its pretty standard too (not in a bad way), i was looking for something with quick releases for the shoulders and cummerbund

[low fox]

the jpc has both of them

very quick donning and doffing

[jade ember]

its not so much its a requirment but the shoulder is must, and if they do the qr shoulders they pretty much always do the bund

[low fox]

the jpc does both of those things

but i still think soft armor would be better

[jade ember]

jpc is a type of plate carrier

jumpable plate carrier

would have to switch out the bund and the quick relase one is almost 100$ by itself

so its like wasting 100$

[cinder stream]

if you're working civ armed security i have the same opinion as @low fox

[low fox]

listen to what im telling you

the jpc has both releaseable shoulders and cummerbund

it comes like that

you dont need to fuck with anything*

[jade ember]

yea i guess so

they do have a good relase system

[barren kettle]

[viral cedar]

Jpc is overhyped

[viral cedar]

Medeek? I know a guy👀

I dont think ive made this meme

But wrong hong kong patch

[low fox]

I was making a colonial meme

Ngl

Colonial flag with the flower as a replacement looks nice

[ivory ibex]

Rate my uncomplete ASG setup
And no, that SVD-S is (unfortunately) an ASG replica
Laws on Firearms in here are strict

[acoustic harbor]

I would've doubt either way that you had an SVDS as even their TIGR counterparts are fucking rare

[ivory ibex]

With some shenanigans around the stock you could make a TIGR have a folding stock
But that is something I won't touch

[acoustic harbor]

The Tigr V02 with shorter barrel is effectively a SVDS

also I think some companies make complete folding chassis for SVDs

[low fox]

Nah, its earned its keep

what started out as what was supposed to be a lightweight single deployment carrier for assaulters turned into an amazing general use carrier with no frills and bullshit

lightweight, simple, robust, only what you need and nothing you don't

[coarse laurel]

lol im very late, was busy with work but im a combat medic lol

[soft sonnet]

Anyone know where I can get a 6b27 helmet and 6sh112 vest?

And maybe a 6b45 vest

[echo jay]

Geyshop

[royal pebble]

i’d recommend against that russian shit, stuff is ass

[low fox]

spoken like someone who's never used russian kit before

[low fox]

i mean, it's pretty ass

but it's better than nothing

what sorta russian kit do you guys own lol

0 because its ass and i dont own bad kit

[low fox]

again lol

🤷

russians constantly use plenty of western kit

the opposite is not, and has never been true

and if they aren't using western kit, they're ripping it off

imitation can never be better than the original

and if russian kit was even close to being comparatively as consistent there'd be a huge market for it in the western world where personal kit is a huge and common thing

it has gotten better

but it's not good

thats on god

[echo jay]

terek kit which is basically just budget western kit

[twin pecan]

i dunno about that one chief

[plain zinc]

buy real gun, fuck government

[royal pebble]

i literally have, but okay

the plate carrier i own and use is Russian, but its a plate carrier and not a 6B45

[steep nexus]

will be needing tarkov to add razer headsets into the game as this is clearly a viable option for armor

[inner path]

does it make you extremely hungry after use?

[burnt fractal]

No

Is normal

[inner path]

i knew it was all lies

[burnt fractal]

U mean in game?

[inner path]

yes

[burnt fractal]

U should try it in real life

Is so gud

And cheap (just maybe)

Actually u guy can buy on web but is very expensive

Maybe is about 18,87$ for one?

I not remember so much

But

Is just 0,22$ in vietnam

Is mean 1$ = 5 golden star balm in vietnam

U mean tarkov? Or something?

Nahh idk

69

Maybe the price will be like this

[tropic steppe]

My father uses it when hes out mountain climbing. I was climbing with him ince and its unironically amazing. Literally some sort of magic. Fixed my cold with just 2 uses.

Dumb ass points

[modest flame]

@left flax he thinks he's witty. He hasn't said a single original comeback, he's only gotten flustered and stumbled over overused jokes. We could go in circles with him untill he gets banned and is stuck alone with his uncle's abuse once again

[left flax]

Saw a "Ben shapiro roasts trans woman" video once and thinks he's a hero and against wokeness or sumthin

[modest flame]

[left flax]

I could tell you had a bussy

[left flax]

Lmfao

Shut it bussy boy

[modest flame]

Opposite of a protrusion would be a cavity, therefore by self admittance you have a vagina

The amount of lonely men like you that buy me stuff is evident enough

What does this mean, I never haven't acknowledge basic biology

Never said they weren't, but they do lol

You have no actual point my guy

Yes

Because you are lonely

When's the last time you've gotten laid? If ever? I will put my entire life savings on the fact that you are an incel

Am i missing something, or is God being censored with "G-d"

[compact dagger]

Pretty sure that's how Jews write it

[coarse laurel]

Yes I did

: (

[barren kettle]

[plush topaz]

It's a prayer for safe travels/journey.

And jews do not say the lords name in vain

Wow so many people embraced the k19 master race eh

I'm proud

[low fox]

K19 is what again

[plush topaz]

Agilites flagship carrier

[low fox]

Ah

I dont run carriers

[plush topaz]

But consider:

[low fox]

I run battle webbing inironically

[plush topaz]

Objectively inferior, unironically.

[low fox]

Web gear depending isnt horrid

[compact dagger]

wtf when did they add this

i was checking their site few days ago and didnt see that thing

[plush topaz]

It's sold out. I'm still not convinced it isn't an April fools

[compact dagger]

"It allows you to blend in with the most unassuming environments, while still retaining a high level of combat readiness."

yea, you totally blend in with fucking molle on your hoodie

[plush topaz]

I know. Killed me

[low fox]

Speaking if joke

STILL HAVENT GOTTEN MY PATCHES

[plush topaz]

I made my own.

These patches?

[compact dagger]

so yea, that guy that sent me the pic of the sticker and card made me angy once again

would've lived in peace if i didn't know

[plush topaz]

From Agilite?

[compact dagger]

ye

[plush topaz]

No joke if you emailed them and asked for swag they'd send you some

[left flax]

Nice half sleeve thing, looks cool

[compact dagger]

if i'd have known few weeks ago before they sent me replacement cummerbunds i'd ask for it

but now I don't want it since paying fucking cumstains

customs*

[plush topaz]

Thx. It isn't done yet.

[left flax]

Oooo dope

[compact dagger]

damn i want to get some tats

but from my pov my arms are spaghetti sized

[plush topaz]

You won't pay customs on a sticker

[left flax]

I'm still thinking of what I want as my first

[compact dagger]

so wont look good if i get some muscle

pretty sure its parcels in general

[left flax]

Had this problem a year ago, I no longer have this problem

Get to the gym lad

You can do it, it's worth it

[compact dagger]

no energy left after work and running in the field doing fire and manouver or some other shit

and since i drive with friends from work i cant stay late to go to work gym

[left flax]

Ah I feel that
I go after work, can't be bothered but I go anyway, feels awful lol

[compact dagger]

but me and other workmate are thinking to go duo to local gym that recently opened

ye

[plush topaz]

So what. Unless you become Arnold Schwarzenegger it'll look fine

[left flax]

Totally go for it man

[compact dagger]

also the fact i have mandatory 3k to run on tuesdays and thursdays makes me even less willing to go there

but i'll see

if my legs get fine soon i'll probably go

just needed a friend to go with me since being there alone is meh

plus he knows his shit so he could help me out

[left flax]

I've been going solo since I started, get some headphones and you're sorted

[plush topaz]

It's good to be trained

[left flax]

Maybe get a personal trainer at the start like I did too, help you find your way round

[plush topaz]

Yes you'll learn proper form

[left flax]

Aye

[plush topaz]

Reduce risk of injury

[compact dagger]

he isn't a professional but he knows his shit so i'd want to go with him

offered me to go with him to boxing lessons

we'll see

[plush topaz]

Ya anyone who regularly works out will do

[compact dagger]

sadly he is transferring to different base so wont have same schedule anymore

[coarse laurel]

Lol I got hate from it here

[plush topaz]

How. Why.

[coarse laurel]

I know how this feels, I’m doing that plus carrying heavy motherfuckers in IOTV Gen 4’s fully loaded

[plush topaz]

It's a very popular carrier world wide. Even American soldiers/cops use it.

[coarse laurel]

My fucking body is shot lol

[coarse laurel]

Because JPC is the most popular one, I like the JPC but I wouldn’t use it for sustained operations

[plush topaz]

Oh crye snobs.

[coarse laurel]

The K19 is the most comfiest I’ve worn and I can be on the prone on that shit all day

[plush topaz]

K19 I'd go to war with. JPC I'd do static security with

[coarse laurel]

People complain about being able to shoulder their rifles but it’s not an issue for me so it must be a build thing

[plush topaz]

Yeah length of pull related. Body physique. Many factors.

[coarse laurel]

Also adjustment

[plush topaz]

Spiritus placard?

[coarse laurel]

Gotta play around with the shoulder straps

Ye

[plush topaz]

My ninja

[coarse laurel]

I got it second hand

But still works

[compact dagger]

damn i wish I had a highcut

I was thinking of buying one but not sure i'd be allowed to wear it

[left flax]

Am jealous

[compact dagger]

plus, if you get injured while not wearing issued stuff I wont get comp

[compact dagger]

so if i'd be deployed to Romania as was planned, before it got scrapped, i'd bring my own shit plus issued stuff so it'd be in the vic

so if i get injured for any reason i can fast swap that shit and claim the comp

[compact dagger]

that reminds me i need to adjust it

since i feel more pressure on one of the shoulders when wearing it for longer time

but never really have the equip to test it at home

[coarse laurel]

I sold this one

It’s served me well for 2.5 years

[misty mango]

the K19 just amazing

[misty mango]

only ever had an issue with that when it was my first time using the carrier and steel AK stocks

they like to slip a little

but as with everything
you get used to it

[plush topaz]

Rubber pad helps. Or if you want to get nasty put some skateboard tape or 3M Safewalk on it

[misty mango]

nah im just gonna get a zenitco pt1

that has a rubber pad

i have absolutely no issues when using my AR though

some people like to tuck the stock under the carrier but getting used to regular shouldering is way nicer

ay cannoli
you Israeli?

[low fox]

Griptape is a godsend

[plush topaz]

I’m Canadian Israeli.

[misty mango]

ah so you have based blood

[plush topaz]

Kosher based

[compact dagger]

hmm, Do I want to take plates from work and then go for a run some evening with them

and try to not forget them when i go to work on saturday

[low fox]

if you want to put undue strain on your joints sure

i wouldn't

[compact dagger]

Hmm fair point

Yeah I'll wait a bit and get injured at work

So I can skip doing the boring/repetitive shit

[trim niche]

@acoustic harbor any idea what the buckles on the side of the JPC do? are they for a quick detach cummerbund upgrade?

[low fox]

side plates

[trim niche]

wait really?

[low fox]

yes

[trim niche]

does anyone really use them though

[low fox]

in that specific way? not that i''ve generally seen

i've never mounted my side plates that way

some people do though

[trim niche]

ah right

i know im not supposed to be running steel plates on my jpc, but it's for my training and all i have

i need some good trauma plates

[real sigil]

how thick are the steel plates

you can just wrap them in a cloth

like burlap or something

anything works

it will help the steel plates not fuck the cordura in like a couple weeks

[trim niche]

about 0.7cm

so thats like

0.3 inches?

[real sigil]

thats quite thin

is it bare metal

or does it have some sort of coating or liner type stuff on it

[trim niche]

bare metal

they're training plates

4kg each

[real sigil]

yeah wrap that with something

thats not gonna be great for the fabric constantly under tension and rubbing on bare metal

ur probably gonna want a backer cause im assuming they are flat too

[trim niche]

yeah

not curved

[real sigil]

tape could work

but burlap sack would work better and for cheaper

[trim niche]

pretty uncomfortable, i was planning to get some dummy plates

[real sigil]

just wrap it until theres some padding between the plate and the fabric on your plate carrier

thats gonna tear through the plate carrier at the corners of the plates

[trim niche]

ye will do

[real sigil]

you plan on getting actual plates some day?

[trim niche]

hopefully

at least NIJ IVs

not gonna run steel plates

probably ceramic

[real sigil]

most people buy a plate backer

it makes plates more effective if you actually do get shot, because it lessens the effects of BFD

and more comfortable to wear when compared to the back face of the plate itself

they are cheap too

first spear, trex arms are the first results for a google search

wouldn't recommend qore performance unless you want it specifically for the cooling

[plush topaz]

Level 3+ ftw

[real sigil]

nah

level 4

unless level 4 not accessible

oh

ur canadian

makes sense

fellow Canadian I see

[plush topaz]

Level 4 is good but 3+ just as good for 99% of application

We have access to level 4 lol

[real sigil]

not actual nij cert stuff

its like made to the same standard, but you would never know unless you actually bought the plates and shot it with M2 ap 3 times or whatever

wouldnt trust the made in china stuff atleast without testing it, but the made in canada stuff is probably fine

[plush topaz]

Oh fuck that lol

Ya I have Canadian S&J hardware plates.

[real sigil]

yeah, theres like a bunch of places that have their own brand of plates too

unless you know for a fact where they are made, i wouldnt trust them for face value

[plush topaz]

Imagine using Chinese Armour.

[real sigil]

for real

[plush topaz]

My Israeli level 4 plates where so thicc I couldn't see my own dick when I pissed

[real sigil]

wish agilite would sell their plates in canada

[plush topaz]

Gotta pay for the light thin ones

[real sigil]

i know those are actually pretty darn good

light thin ones

you arent talking about the 3000$ ones

are you?

[plush topaz]

Probably

I forget how much they are

[real sigil]

https://www.hoplitearmor.com/collections/sapi-plates-level-iv/products/two-sapi-plates-nij-certified-lightweight-level-iv-triple-curve-stand-alone-26300

3000$

no joke

boron carbide plates

most others are alumina ceramic, so it costs only a fraction

[plush topaz]

Agility plates are a weird cut though I think

Israeli Hasmonean cut

Unless they make them same cut Americans use

[real sigil]

i think they are made to work in the k19

and k5

which are sapi cut

[plush topaz]

True

IDF plates are Hasmonean cut

Or they were when I served lol

[real sigil]

shooters cut?

never heard of that cut ur talking about

[plush topaz]

Proprietary

[real sigil]

ah

i see

[low fox]

nah most are silicone carbide, but there are alumina carbide out there too

kinda depends on the manufacturer honestly

although hesco was exposed recently for their 3800 plates being alumina carbide

[real sigil]

oh huh

[low fox]

but sold for the pricing of higher end silicone carbide plates

[real sigil]

i mean nothing wrong with alumina carbide if its rated to stop said threats

[low fox]

they skimped on a bunch of material to reach lightweight

light weight*

well the problem with alumina carbide is that its pretty heavy usually

[real sigil]

the big issue is when the plates are not edge to edge in the plate

[low fox]

that is a big issue

but it's not the big issue

the problem with lightweight alumina carbide is that in order to reach that weight

it means you skimped material somewhere in the plate

and that's a problem

[real sigil]

i see

[low fox]

cause alumina carbide is generally pretty heavy

and combined with the hesco 3810s being 3+ plates

meaning they hold no actual rating or certification

well

it's a risk i guess

hesco has been outed for being shady as fuck recently, some people have dropped their plates entirely

[real sigil]

i mean, alumina ceramic plates usually worked better to stop projectiles than silicon or boron carbide given its heavier than the latter 2 iirc

but that do be a problem

[low fox]

boron carbide is the tip top of ballistic materials, there is nothing better

alumina carbide has its downsides, as does silicone

[real sigil]

man boron carbide is silly tho

it costs way to much, pratically only gov and mil guys are running them

and only the super high speed mans

probably expensive for that reason tbh

[low fox]

yeah

it is the best ballistic material that we're aware of

and is one of the hardest materials on earth

[real sigil]

this is totally not because tarkov

but i have been told before that uhmwpe was actually better material than ceramics for armor

idk how true that is cause i never looked into it, but its been said before

[low fox]

nope

and not just that but it's extremely susceptible to API ammunition

[real sigil]

rip

[low fox]

the only placards i can think of that offer even something of that nature off the rip is the spiritus mk4 and maybe the D3CRM

the spiritus you can do 3 in the back flap, 2 pistol mags up front and use the remaining half of the placard to store admin stuff

or the haley rigs that just let you do all of that off the rip

[plush topaz]

Spiritus

[low fox]

flecktarn

[open crypt]

smt looks sus

[modest flame]

Based, also have hoplite in my jpc2

[reef trout]

Best camouflage for my region which is evergreen/tundra 99.99% of the year

I have lvl4 RMA plates single curve cause multi kinda shit for my body type

[left flax]

Nice arms bro

[real sigil]

most placard that are out there can be expanded to accept an admin + whatever you need

tbh, imo placards are kinda unnecessary unless you have more than one kind of magazine

or you constantly need to change the mag setups

normal molle webbing is fine for most

[reef trout]

Also placards can be turned into Rigs like the Microfight

Alot easier to buckle a rig directly to the PC than to try and put a rig over a slick

Less to break too

[plush topaz]

You stole my mask!

[reef trout]

If your rig is thrown over a slick and you break a strap your whole mag carrier is fucked but it's alot harder to break a placard

[crimson prism]

does anybody know how to build this? I saw it on the merch store but my mom wont allow me to spend my money on it

[left flax]

Can probably find something online, like a instructional vid or something

[crimson prism]

sorry if i posted it twice

my discord doesnt show my own message

[crimson prism]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_2axhuf7Jw wohoo i found this

[weak willow]

Go to Ikea get some bags and lanyards and maby like a like a belt if they have those and it looks simple enough with just get it sewed up

[crimson prism]

Im very unintelligent and i have no idea how to sew it together like ingame

[plush topaz]

Consider: learning.

[crimson prism]

I will try it i hope nothing goes wrong

[nimble hinge]

worst case scenario, you waste 10 hucks on the bag and material and poke your finger

but dude, youre making like 4 pockets and adding straps to them. the hardest part is learning an everyday skill

[plush topaz]

The hardest part is indeed sewing but I reckon you need a sewing machine for this.

[nimble hinge]

i had a harder time learning than doing

probably just depends on what youre sewing exactly exactly, material, etc

[weak willow]

How did you want people to respond just send u a free replica

[crimson prism]

no how do you make those pockets

[weak willow]

Cut up the bag and then fold it over on itself like a felt bullet loop or anything of that nature put a mag in and then sew around the mag

[crimson prism]

ohhhhh okay i didnt know you needed a mag

[royal pebble]

well it’s a mag carrier right

of course you need mags

[crimson prism]

Im a dumbass im gen z

[spring oar]

See, because you admit it, it means you aren't

Admitting your problems is the first step in beating them

[crimson prism]

In real life or in game

[spring oar]

Yes

[solemn bolt]

will 9x39 BP defeat a XSAPI plate?

interested because I saw Oxide's teaser

[low fox]

no

the chance is pretty god damn close to 0

[solemn bolt]

Damn ok

[real sigil]

xsapis literally stop m993

they are insanely durable

3 hits precisely

[solemn bolt]

damn

then what's the point of that test that I might see on Oxide's channel?

Or maybe there's something more to that.....

[real sigil]

idk if any modern practical threats will go through first shot

xsapis are still useless if you magdump them, even with 9mm

but tbh, there are statistical tests for xsapis which the government did

just not on camera

idk, maybe the xsapis will comprimise due to being past shelf life

but tbh, plates don't tend to degrade like that

you can realistically expect none of them to go through, unless 2 bullets land on the same spot

[sudden tapir]

#skiball where is the person i just played with

[compact dagger]

finally got my rig home so now I can share the pics

plus need to repair it now

[crimson prism]

It looks cool is it real or for air soft?

[compact dagger]

real

same as Izurumi has, just different color

and lighter setup since im not a medic

also he uses placcard and not just tripple pouch mounted on the rig

only downside of the backpack for me is that whenever you need to wear a 3day bag its uncomfortable to get on

and nearly impossible to be worn for longer time if you have camelbak pouch inside of the pack

[crimson prism]

so if a robber attacked you you can survive it?

[compact dagger]

doubt any robber would come up to the 5th floor to rob me, unless they knew that I have my PC hardware, but if they knew that they also know that I have a plate carrier with armor

[crimson prism]

but imagine edp 445 is on the loose and he comes to your house for refugee

[compact dagger]

I doubt he would come to EEU to me to get refuge

[low fox]

Question for both Airsoft and Gun Community!!
Do you think Armored Skirt, And no Not to be mistaken with "Feminine" Clothing as actual skirts, good example of it like the samurai armor skirt, That can be Attached to an let's say a battle belt worth doing and actually can be useful?
And if it exists and you seen a similar Example please Ping/Dm me it!!

[compact dagger]

for real stuff no, but for airsoft it will protect you getting hit right in the balls

[low fox]

I think it can be perfect for SWATing

[compact dagger]

it wont

impairs movement too much to be practical

and if it would be perfect it would already be a thing

[low fox]

I don't think so tbh, I think it add extra protection with out effecting your movement, like how they did it in medieval times and Medieval Japan, since the idea if your going to combat face to face your expected to have a higher chance to be hit every where

Going through tight doors maybe but this issue also goes along with bullestic shields

Idk I think the only way to find out is to test that theory

[crimson prism]

it sound like a good idea

[compact dagger]

Have fun your bones getting broken anyways when you get hit with a 12g slug

[crimson prism]

imagine you have a shotgun with 100 shot magazine and it doesnt jam

[naive maple]

camelbak pouches are stupid anyway

bottles are the way to go

[compact dagger]

yes and no

Camelbaks are nice when you need both of your hands, or you want to drink while on the move

Also good that they don't make any sound unlike plastic bottles

And you can use it without taking anything off to take the bottle out of your pack

or a canteen out of pouch

[low fox]

I love camalbacks

They are great as I can carry more water with less bulk when hiking or doing a longer form comp

[timber fog]

Camelback + canteen combo >>>>>

[compact dagger]

hey, being an euro doesnt make you a furry or airsoft-only

[naive maple]

if you're a european and you're unarmed it's solely because you're too lazy to jump through your given country's stupid hoops

fix yourself
