Wrench Bender Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I am not sure as I have never done any rope work with a pistol on my harness.... however even having a carbinere on their was not very comfy to me when I was on the rope. I am not sure that the holster with pistol will be very comfortable if you ever decided to rappel with it like that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
themonkeyfromoutbreak Posted June 10, 2009 Report Share Posted June 10, 2009 I guess your right, any climbing/abseiling/rappelling I have done I have not a pistol but the chances of me doing any rappelling on a UK airsoft site are slim. The holster wont fit on the molle belt & I am not too keen on the idea of using a molle platform. I will give the 6004 a try out but I cant see it being comfortable.

matfar Posted June 30, 2009 Report Share Posted June 30, 2009 Looks pretty good Jolly, Air Rescue is still sexy  May I suggest you to change your gloves for something older? Like Nomex gloves or older gen Mechanix?  Put some comm, comtac I, and rappeling harness, have an optic ans laser designator on your M4, and it will be a very good kit.
