Sinner101GR Posted February 8, 2012 Report Share Posted February 8, 2012 Slight update over last set up. Ditched the Paraclete medic for an Eagle one. Streamlined the back plate for a MAP only. Just need a radio set up to finish this one off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 My kit in its latest forms, though putting all my gear on a chest rig's been exacerbating my bad back so will be returning to a PC. (Mesh goggles were a borrow as my glasses kept fogging, also not wearing my first line as was too cold for pistol). Got a line on some Comtacs wired for PRR so will be using those soon instead of shelling out crazy money for an adapter for my sordin's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Agent Hunk Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 Dave, do you have previous back issues? I ask because your chest rig seems fairly light and I have heard other people complain about the back issues but never experienced them myself. Ever consider adding hydro to the back to balence things out? Either way, nice gear. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted February 14, 2012 Report Share Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) I'm quite tall and have had back issues for a few years now, it's not too bad when I'm wearing plate carriers for some reason but having the weight on my front gets my lower back and the bit between my shoulder blades sore. There is actually a hydro attached to the back but afraid it didn't do much! I'm going to try investing in a 6094 and CASS from LBT. Works with my USSF kit, but has a built in lumbar support and better weight distribution. As long as I keep stuff on my belt and the sides of the rig, hopefully it'll be ok.

Stress Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) still WIP, after receiving some more items, will go for two different impressions: - SEALs (with Mich 2000 Helmet and 3 color desert pants) - DEVRGU (with 6094LBT MJK, AOR1 combat shirt and MK18 MOD0 boomstick) Edited March 6, 2012 by Stress 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chevieblazer Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 It looks pretty cool as it is.. A few suggestions: For any Navy-Specops-Impression, I'd go with a Sig as a secondary rather than an M9 For the Devgru...kinda hard to tell, but rumor has it they almost eclusively use 416s these days, at least 416 uppers Your FAST should be a ballistic model, without then holes in it 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stress Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 thank you for the advices Chevieblazer! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Solid advice there, but the kit is looking very good, certain a decent start for the impressions you're doing. You could pull off a Glock aswell, also one of the First Spear helmet cover would cover the Ops Core hiding the holes and be in keeping with the USSF look. Also police up that comms downlead on your back! Looks perfect from snagging on something lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Stress Posted March 8, 2012 Report Share Posted March 8, 2012 indeed, Scuffer. After I've seen the photos I realized that. The cover is a good advice to cover the holes, thank you. btw these two advices are the best I've received in a while. Thank you guys, I've learned a lot from them! Also I wonder if for DEVGRU impression is enough to go with MJK 6094 LBT or MJK H-Harness, coz I don't really want to invest right now in a AOR1 vest/plate/rig. What do you think? It could work? I've seen some pics of possible DEVRGU whearing MJK, but not sure. cheers, Sorin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Romeo98 Posted March 10, 2012 Report Share Posted March 10, 2012 Something simple I have been toying with, finally coming to fruition. There's still a few details I need to finish up but the main idea is there.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

starburst Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 Romeo that does look practical, do you have any larger photos? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ivan le Fou Posted March 11, 2012 Report Share Posted March 11, 2012 No real RS inspiration, but I confess having watched "The Objective" recently: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chevieblazer Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 @ Stress: the LBT 6094 is never "wrong" for Seals, though there seems to be a strong trend towards unicolored loadouts (in AOR or MC). I have to say, though, my personal Seal stuff ends around 2009-10, when they quit using DCUs and BDUs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Isamu Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Ivan, what jacket is that? thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Desert Night Grid parka issued during the first Gulf War. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ivan le Fou Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 What frogfish said. And by the smell, when I received it, I would it hadn't been washed since the first Gulf War. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Thanks mate! but, what is it good for? just another fancy jacket for concrete loadouts? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ivan le Fou Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 What do you mean by "what is it good for"? Do you mean in term of efficiency as a camo pattern? ND was developed during the first Gulf War to deceive the enemies NV devices in the desert. The ND was supposed to conceal the carrier more efficiently. It wasn't very effective. Do you mean in term of gear for reenactment? It has been seen a few times on CIA operators in various places and at various times (Astan, Irak, etc...) And I like the look of it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Isamu Posted March 24, 2012 Report Share Posted March 24, 2012 Yeah, I meant if it concealed efficiently, if it was warm in winter... performance all around of if as you said, it was good only for specific loadouts or just because you like the look of it Thanks for the explanation Quote Link to post Share on other sites
