SteevoLS Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 (edited) Getting ready for Fulda Gap 2011 with a few additions to the JPC. Zipper EMT pouch and a 3l Thermobak. Having a custom laptop-style radio pouch being made this week. I need to sew up some MOLLE buckles to attach the Camelbak properly, but it works fine as it is.

Corrigan Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 eel one, looks good! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eel one [COE] Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Thanks Corrigan. As mentioned there would be a minor change to the loadout. Here is the current setup including 1st line: I know that some now will ask if not the pistol is a bit to far to the rear to be reached and if the SOHPC don't makes the pistol mags inaccessible. Well the placement of the pistol is not just random as it happened to be the easy placement due to an open slot on the brokos belt. I need the pistol to be out of my work space until I need it. And no the pistol mags are easily available. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colwombat Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) That SOHPC makes me excite. If they weren't priced as high, I'd love to snag one... Might as well add my new PC to the thread as well. Its changed up a bit since I took the picture. Mainly the banger is on the far back of the left side, same with the frag. It seems I have to change my rig as soon as I take a picture because I want to try it a different way The Banshee is stupid comfy, even fully loaded along with my Icom and mags on the inside of the cummerbund. IMHO you'll be hard pressed to find a better carrier for the same price as this. Edited October 20, 2011 by crackisbad Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Grindstone Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Jewish Ninja, but not Hebrew Hammer? That Banshee looks really nice. Considering the surprisingly low price point for a TAG item, I think I found a new future purchase, if it's as compfy as you make it sound. BTW, you might need to censor the couch patch for Arnies.

Wraith18A Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 Eel One: how do you draw the primary mags? Aren't they a bit backwards given that you're a righty? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 (edited) Long as he flips his left hand around so the fingers are facing backwards, then they'll come out the right way with the thumb around the back of the mag. It'd only be a problem if he were grabbing the mags on top and lifting them straight up. Edited October 19, 2011 by CKinnerley Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pkekyo-Nor Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 I run my mags oriented the same way, and I'm a righty as well. It just feels less awkward than running them the "regular" way around and flipping them over the horizontal axis. I've only started working mags like this ever since I got magpuls/ranger plates though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
eel one [COE] Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 CKinnerly are bang on the money. It feals more natural to me to draw that way. I'll se if I can take a pic tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wingmann Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 In that position it's thumb on the upper side, all fingers around the mag, push out and insert, as if you were stabbing the M4 with the mag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
master_titled Posted October 20, 2011 Report Share Posted October 20, 2011 That APC looks good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
purviNs Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 master_titled - Going from a heavy fully loaded CIRAS to this config on the APC made both my back and my playing style happy. Those shoulder pads are gold. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Solid Snake.pt Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Following CKinnerely's purchase, I bought myself a DCS in Coyote Tan. Loving it so far, going to be field tested this weekend. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted October 21, 2011 Report Share Posted October 21, 2011 Almost strange seeing it in the tan having only seen the multicam so far, nice though, some good points to that setup. If you could take a picture in natural light I think there's a fair few people who'd be interested to see it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Azubi Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 They do it in TAN?! Balls! I might have to buy another one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackjack13 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 No, just Elite Ops Multicam and Coyote Brown. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TheFull9 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 UK-Tac call it 'coyote tan' though I've not seen any in person so I've no idea how dark is, or how close to brown instead of tan it might be. Since they revised their colour palette a little while back even their standard line tan gear is a fairly dark colour as it is. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Solid Snake.pt Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 The "Coyote Tan" colour is a couple of shades lighter than say, Pantac's Coyote Brown. WAS's current Tan is actually quite dark, but I much rather this colour. I'll try to get some natural light pics comparing both colours when I get the chance. In the meantime, here's a picture of me getting my kit ready with the RAPTOR in Coyote Tan outdoors. Should give you a good idea of what CT looks like. Their website definitively needs work - I wouldn't have guessed they made it in CT had I not checked the "colour" option in the multicam vest section. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackjack13 Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 My only real complaint with Warrior has come from the 2011 OD and tan having IR treated MOLLE (like the Elite Ops stuff). I understand/appreciate it makes sense from a tactical stand point, but it looks terrible in my opinion. Glad I managed to get their earlier stuff... which to keep this relevant, my revised RICAS Compact set-up should be posted this/next week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
validtumoralarm Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Crye JPC showed up today. Sorry for the bad pictures, they're the best I can do with a dorm room as the background. What do you guys think of the size? When I used the clone version I wore a medium too, but this seems even smaller, even with the JPC designed as a low profile carrier. Should I write to Crye and switch it out for a large? Here's a picture of me wearing my old ACM one: Does it look about the same size? It'd be nice to not have to get new plates.

PianoBlack Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 The plate should sit between your sternum notch (with the top no more than 1 inch below it) and your navel so you appear to be wearing it low. It appears to be the correct width though. -Piano Quote Link to post Share on other sites
validtumoralarm Posted October 26, 2011 Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 Thanks, Piano. I had fixed the height since the photo. I looked at the picture and saw the problem right away. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
