Mr Foxhound Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) Reminds me of Captain Prices 'stach in COD4, Reborn. Nice. Edited September 11, 2009 by Mr Foxhound Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hakkon Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Reborn, how do you like the grenade pouches? I used to have 4 on my 'satch, but they kept getting in my way and bugging me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Reborn Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 Just got them and the training grenades today - haven't had time for a field trial yet. However, in the past, I have had three large utility pouches on the front of my Wasatch and didn't find them much of a both when maneuvering. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
boomheadshot (infidel) Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) I think you were talking to me, but they ride up when I wear it, it's because I pushed it apart so it could stand properly. It's comfortable either way for me..   If it wont stand up by its self it sounds like there is nothing inside it . Get some cardboard and thick camping bed roll, make templates and make carboard plates about an inch thick then make out lines of the back and front and cut them out of the camping bed roll, and your sorted. It will be much more realistic and will feel so much more comfortable, as it will hug your body so you can carry much more weight, as its more spread out, then do it up so its a tight fit not lose. It will be far more comfortable make it more stable, will spread weight more so you can carry more with less fatigue, holds its shape better, looks better, and its how its designed to be worn. Its like wearing shoes without laces, they wont fit right as there designed to use laces (only if they are lace up shoes of course ) try it it will work.

teflon don Posted September 11, 2009 Report Share Posted September 11, 2009 (edited) tis my pc its a cheap chinese one but it does the job it has a quick release handle which is totaly useless because when the buckles relaese you still have to open the velcro and it takes 10 minutes to reset it came in this set up  and now i wear it like this its still a work in progress the dump pouch will be in the middle (so i can dump my mag straight out the gun) there will be a second grenade and maybe a double 40 mil grenade pouch (if i can find one cheap in acu )  so what do you think  @ reborn what type of vest is that? where do they sell that? do they come in acu? does it hold its form when you only put in one mag in each pouch Edited September 11, 2009 by teflon don Quote Link to post Share on other sites

One mag works ok in each pouch, yeah. And yes, it's available in UCP.  - Zepher Edited September 11, 2009 by CapaciousZepher Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unit 318 Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 so what do you think  Hey I was wondering if you can open up the PC and take a picture of the inner parts. Like lay it out open..  Thanks! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lizzard Posted September 12, 2009 Report Share Posted September 12, 2009 If you put the dumper hanging down the front, the thing will flop around when mags are in it, and your "mandard issue weapon" will not appreciate it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

reaper16 Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Roecar that looks great, what mag pouches are those on the side with the buttons? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unit 318 Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 no problem do you mean so you can see the wires and the plates or just the inside  Just the parts that touch the body. The "underbelly" of the vest, if you will. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Roecar Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Roecar that looks great, what mag pouches are those on the side with the buttons? Â They are BHI g36 mag pouches. You can either hold two g36 mags or three M4 mags. Comes with a divider if you only want to carry two M4 mags as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
08kecarv Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Just got a DBT FAPC in RG and damn is it a good PC. Too bad when I bought it (used off ASB) I didn't realized its a size small and I think I need more of a medium... Oh well, maybe i'll just sell it and buy a new one.

kojak Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 are there belts that can hook up to a molle vest i need something to attach a holster too but i want it to be stable  It's up to personal preference, but I don't think it's a good idea to attach your belt to your vest. Your vest moves with your upper body and a belt should sit on your hips. If they are connected it is that much harder to move.  To answer your question there are some (non plate carrier) vests with loops for a pistol belt. Also Blackhawk makes this nifty thing to connect the belt strap of a thigh holster to your vest, which causes the same problems with movement.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Like lay it out open.. Thanks! here you go don't mind the patch there is velcro there and i have no idea what for but that not the only funny thing there is no vercro in the back ( for a neck protector) there are some molle straps on the back and there is a big nylon strap where my plates are  here is a picture of how the quick release works    It's up to personal preference, but I don't think it's a good idea to attach your belt to your vest.

Unit 318 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 So you could attach Interceptor armor to that PC no problem, eh...? I have a terribly cool idea... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
teflon don Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 (edited) So you could attach Interceptor armor to that PC no problem, eh...? I have a terribly cool idea... there is velcro for the shoulder pads there are 2 molle straps in front for the protector and maybe you can hook up the neck protector on the straps on the back  so whats you cool idea Edited September 18, 2009 by teflon don Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unit 318 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 Grab myself a black version off EB and loop all my IBA's armor through it. It would be sweeeet  But not until I get an FAPC first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lizzard Posted September 21, 2009 Report Share Posted September 21, 2009 I really like that one, though the Talkabout in the MBITR pouch seems a little unecessary, do you have a replica MBITR you stick in there for pictures or something usually? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 Thanks. It's a good rig. I will eventually get a Sparten MBITR shell for the Talkabout. Until then, the Motorola is being held up by a pair of socks and a bandage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Unit 318 Posted September 22, 2009 Report Share Posted September 22, 2009 If you take a ball of plastic wrap and shape it to the size/shape of the pouch, you can use duct tape to keep the radio in place. That's what I do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
