uscmCorps Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 uscmCorps, what make are the mag pouches? Could you throw up some pics of the ammo side? Thanks, nice belt kit! I've been wanting something similar. It get's too hot here in the summer. As the Flash pointed out, they're Eagle Industries FB pouches. Basically open top pouches with kydex inserts and felt lined so they're rigid and hold onto mags pretty tightly. I used to use Fast Mags but didn't like twisting them out under pressure. Then saw people start to use the FB pouches and decided to give them a try. I've used a similar setup but with a drop leg for a while now, and quite like how cool it is in California Summer: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 My current belt rig. It's actually the main setup I use in fast paced games. http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/7554/beltrigsmall.jpg http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/4695/gl...eltrigsmall.jpg http://img96.imageshack.us/img96/7897/mp9beltrigsmall.jpg Very sharp--I feel inspired to put something similar together with a Safariland MLS and some Fastmags, just have to find the right belt. Does anyone wear a chest rig along with their MOLLE belt? I'm stuck with realcaps, so my lightest kit is 6-8 mags plus a med pouch for my CO2 and BBs, the mandatory pistol, and a radio. I've hauled all of it on belt kit using two thigh platforms, but I would prefer to ditch the dropleg stuff altogether. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uscmCorps Posted January 11, 2010 Report Share Posted January 11, 2010 uscm, u do nothing for water? During the days I'm wearing this rig we're usually running 15-20 minute games, and they're usually small games within my team. So I drink between games. At all day games I have my full rig (which holds anything from 3-6 liters of water). Now that, is not a light rig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azulsky Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Ah i see, we typically roam too far from the cars to make it feasible for me it seems, though the practicality of it leaves me green with envy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Well I have a Camelbak that I could use. For games where we're far enough away from cars, I'd take a go bag or E&E bag with ammo, couple snacks and some simple tools. But the idea is definitely to stay light weight. It's basically the same setup as what I'm using for my Magpul Dynamics class. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I guess he wants to be hated. Sorry. Didn't intend to post that in hopes of generating jealousy. That's simply the main impetus for why my belt rig has been setup the way it is. The instructors want the students to come to the class with whatever setup they'll be using in a real world situation, and unless you're in LE or MIL, it's highly unlikely you'll be using a real gun in a drop leg. So while I do airsoft, it's important that I train myself to use what a real world situation may dictate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CplHicks Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) I'm in the process of rethinkinh my belt line. I've got a WAS PLB in Tan with some HSGI Suspenders. I currently have one WAS shingle and a BHI serpa on there. I'm going to be re-thinking it soon. Edited January 12, 2010 by CplHicks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FallenGuard Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 About the PLB Belt, how comfortable is it? Would it be adjustable to smaller waists? It seems pretty large on Photos... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CplHicks Posted January 13, 2010 Report Share Posted January 13, 2010 It is very comfortable wear. I wore it when playing on sunday. It doesn't dig into your hips and the wieght can be spread around the belt. Once my pouches arrive i'll get some pics up of mine Got 2 EBB Fast mags, a WAS double pistol mag pouch, WAS 5.56 shingle, ACM dump pouch and a BHI Strobe pouch. Its a mix and match of colours, with Tan, FG and ACU. They will all be tan funds permitting. I'm on the lookout for a cheap left handed kydex 1911 holster. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Frykis Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 My Belt kit in it's current. Mod 1,1 Beta mode. I haven't used it "infield" (as in I haven't played with it). I will need to test it ingame before its final, but my basic "is it working" test in the garden says it works. Kitlist (in order of placement left to right) Padded mollebelt (pantac) Moddifierade 5.56 shingles (warrior) Magdump (Pantac) Dubble Pistolmag (Warrior) Single 5.56 pouch (Warrior) Utility pouch medium (Warrior) Lanyard (blackhawk) Hölster (Warrior) Single pistolmag (Warrior) All the Pantac stuff will be changed to similar gear from Warrior Assult Systems Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PSK89 Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 About the PLB Belt, how comfortable is it? Would it be adjustable to smaller waists? It seems pretty large on Photos... I have the same belt depends on how small a waist you have im a 32 and its fine. I use it it for all my gear so at the moment there is 6 co2 m4 magazines in a triple pouch, a dual pistol mag pouch, dump pouch mouted just off centre at the back, a utility pouch with speed loaders co2 some tools and occassionally another two pistol mags and finally my side arm. all in all it does have a fair bit of weight to it! I use the warrior harness aswell though so its a better balance and it is also a lot more stable than the pantac belts imo which have a bit more flex in them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ThaFlash Posted January 14, 2010 Report Share Posted January 14, 2010 (edited) They're Crye Gen 2 tan pants. www.cryeprecision.com I just realized that I'm running into the same problem with my belt that I have with my plate carrier. I have MOLLE and want to use it. Edited January 14, 2010 by ThaFlash Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ThaFlash Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 CTOMS QRPS HSGI 2Quart acting as a butt pack ATS Medium Utility EMDOM Dumper Paraclete CANSOF Small Utility Front Left/Back Right I run a drop leg holster on my left side hence the left side is pretty bare (ATS utility fits well behind my pistol draw). I might add pistol pouches... but maybe on my plate carrier instead of the belt. I haven't ran the setup yet, but I plan to just keep propane, BB's, spent mags, gun oil, propane adapter, sling and maybe some driver bits on the setup with most of the weight being the propane tank.

Agent Hunk Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) Thats alot of big pouches! Ever consider the grenades that hold propane in them? Edited January 16, 2010 by Agent Hunk Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ThaFlash Posted January 16, 2010 Report Share Posted January 16, 2010 (edited) They're OK for pistols. But they don't hold enough to support a GBB M4 for a full day OP. But the HSGI and ATS pouches are scalable. The HSGI is pretty low profile when cinched down and the ATS can be rolled up: And the entire setup, in its highest profile doesn't increase width over my plate carrier. My main idea was to scale pouches vertically in order to not be the michelin man like in my Avatar. Edited January 16, 2010 by ThaFlash Quote Link to post Share on other sites
