Oh, and thanks for the Blueforce link. That belt IS badass, and I found something else on their site I've been looking for.
Kev, you did a great write up. Those who don't understand or appreciate your work would not probabably care to discuss BOBs or setting up a ruck.
We've got some members that aren't sheepdogs, just armed sheeple.
Your gonna hurt someones feelings Huck.
Thanks for the write-up kevp. Does anyone have any experience with the ATS war belt and insert? I keep being torn between that one and the SOC-C from BFG.
Some of us never unpacked our: rucks, LCE's, or ditty bags.
Nice write-up Kev. The ol warbelt, H-Harness and butt pack sure has come a long way. The LBV was hitting the fleet when I retired, I thought that was hitech. I still stay plugged in with what the boys are currently using, but it's hard to keep track. It's sad that it took a war to finally get hitech gear pushed down to the grunts who had been using Vietnam era gear since... Vietnam.
Warning: The gear won't be cheap. It seems all I ever see anymore is "cheap" this and that. WTF guys? I understand many are young and starting out; have tight finances; wives that don't appreciate this stuff; or all of the aforementioned. One question: Is your life cheap? That is where I come from. Life is too short and fragile for cheap guns and gear. Seriously, if there was ever something where quality over quantity applies, this is it.
You're right, there are some troops that never unpack their gear.
They're usually called REMFS
As usual your spot on recommendations found the ignorance that so pervades this board of late. ....
