Lerch Posted February 13, 2009 Report Share Posted February 13, 2009 My battery went out to do a Navcom walk today, covered about 10k with map and compass, with our Master Bomber covering us with a GPS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
6ft4 Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 It's a 4-position, same as the C7A2 and C9A2. Thanks for the info! so 2 position is the old version?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted February 14, 2009 Report Share Posted February 14, 2009 I've never seen a 2-position stock on a Diemaco, even the old C8 had the 4-position... Got pics? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Hi to all!! Well, finally i´m going to do a JTF-2 impression, but i have too many doubts about kitlist. The few thing i know is: - PARACLETE SG RAV - CADPAT BDU (woodland and desert) - DIEMACO C8 Ok to all this, but: - What vest could i use for greenside ops? I´ve seen on this thread a HSGI warlord in cadpat. - JTF-2 uses normal uniforms or RAID type. I´ve found this uniforms: http://dropzonetactical.com/clothing/opsset.html http://www.icetactical.com/clothing-bdutop.html http://www.icetactical.com/clothing-directaction.html Any of those one could be right? - Boots? - Pistol? i´ll supose on a 6004 or serpa - Mich 2000? and wich nvg mount? - A EI AIII Assault Pack could be right? That´s all. Thanks for your patience and for your help. Rgds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 (edited) To be honest, your guess is as good as mine... There's more pictures of the SAS then there are JTF2. The only thing I can comment on would be weapons, such as the C8SFW, and P226. Now, from what I collected off a buddy of mine in the Navy on the west coast, he had a cruise which the JTF and CSOR attended to practice their boarding drills, and from what he saw, they walked on in civvy black casuals. When they geared up, black flightsuits and low-drag MOLLE rigs were the norm. The CSOR I see around here in garrison dress the same as anyone else save the tan beret. The Warlord you saw was mine (for sale btw), its not much special, most CF infantry units are pretty relaxed with off-the-shelf kit so long as it 'looks' Canadian Edited February 16, 2009 by Lerch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted February 16, 2009 Report Share Posted February 16, 2009 Thanks for your promp answer Lerch. Well i´m collecting some photos to try to id the gear. P226? What flashlight? Because in some photos and videos the 6004 is really big, maybe the sig lastac? Rgds Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted February 17, 2009 Report Share Posted February 17, 2009 They always have the option of private purchases, but the issued torch is the Surefire M3. I haven't personally seen anyone mount it on a Sig yet, but completely possible...ya know? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 But private purchases on gun accesories only? on sidearm? or in both? Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Again you're guess is as good as mine when it comes to accesories on the Sig. I haven't personally seen anything mounted on them so I can't confirm that they put gucci kit on them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted February 18, 2009 Report Share Posted February 18, 2009 Those secret units (cag, sas, jtf-2) are so...so...so impossible to repro on a impression!!! OMG give us some help!!! hahahaha!!!! Well, still working on the "search for info" job. Thanks again lerch! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ace of Spades Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Not to let this thread die... We also took a walk in the woods a while back. Oldschool compass nav race, safe to say, my section won (cuz we had a human GPS system lol) And now for something completely different. This is what happens when you group up 150 male Officer Cadets going to a military university and then not let them out during the week.... (My best friend who happens to be an Engineer stud, but does not know how to do the basics of laundry...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 That makes me think of yonder days of BMQ when we'd sling our 2qt canteens When I get my new camera I'll get more pictures up here. Feckin' back on course for the ADATS now, driving the M113's at the moment. We had a ruckmarch this morning with the Arty school BC and BSM and hustled 3k with (for myself anyway) 70lb of kit. My tac's all setup nice, and my ruck is perfect Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ace of Spades Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 Bastage! I hate the ruck I got issued, it was falling apart, so I had to cannibalize straps and stuff from a broken one that I picked up super cheap at a surplus store. The douches in supply would not even give me a new one =/ I have ether BOTC/IAP this summer, or if it fill ups (cuz there is not enough room this year), they will send me and all the other AF OCdt's off to ether to be an SJO at some cadet camp, or if they need it, SLT (second language training). SOOOOO gay, I want to get my 11 week stay at the MEGA over with ASAP... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 (edited) Yeah, supply tends to be full of cunts when you need something important (ruck, tac, daypack, etc..) but lucky for most of the guys on my course, we got our rucks reissued while we were at Shilo and Pet, so they're in good shape. Right now I'm in the process of nabbing as many 64 frames as I can, since nobody gave me guff for my 64, the other lads want there's up in a similar fashion need more zapstraps!

Lerch Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 Tacvest is setup; Berry pouch behind the C9 pouch, bayonet tied down, beads and watch on right shoulder and Nalgene bottle on right side. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
navymp28 Posted April 14, 2009 Report Share Posted April 14, 2009 Nice rig Lerch, I like that issued TV over my ARKTIS 1601 in CADPAT because the mesh is even CADPAT. Anyone wanna trade an issue TV for an CADPAT ARKTIS 1601 LOL. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dragoondark Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 you wouldn't happen to be going to RMC would you? Cause I know you sandhurst team is down here at west point this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted April 15, 2009 Report Share Posted April 15, 2009 I'm not, but I think Ace of Spades is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ace of Spades Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Yep, that I do, although I go to their red headed *bramston pickle* child campus in the french province of Quebec... but only for a month and a half! Half new stuff I got... Diemaco Triad and Diemaco BUIS =) (They are for sale BTW... perfect for your C8 look alikes!) And I just found out that my unit is getting brand spanking new C7A2's... hopefully we get to keep them and take them on course. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Hahaha, I haven't used anything but the A2's I miss my C9 though, she was a beaut. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ace of Spades Posted April 16, 2009 Report Share Posted April 16, 2009 Well, we always had A2's, just that they where pretty much the dregs of the armory stock... Like I could rub off the paint on the receiver if I even as much put any pressure on it =/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) So I got to skip out of class on Friday morning to go to the QM for (brace yourself Ace) the new rucksack Handed in my old shitty ruck and was handed a brand new ruck and compression sack! We had a short lecture on assembly and do's/dont's and left happy. I'll get some pics up soon, I swabbed the inside seams with proofing paste so I'm just waiting for it to dry before packing it.

Ace of Spades Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 RAHHHH!!!!!!! *Emperor Palpatine Voice* "Yessss, let the hate flow freely...." Well, thats alright actually lol, I just got MARS as a trade, soooooooo I wont be really touching rucksacks for the rest of my career after this summers fun with IAP and BOTC. Got recommended for Boarding Party + Combat Clearance Diver!!! But still, for funk's sake, I can never get issued anything that is not falling apart... like my helmet is from 1998.... 11 years old? Great =/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
