Wingmann Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 How are you liking yours, Pesh? I've had mine for a few months now and it's going strong, I'm just starting to get tired of all the comments from the Crye fans... "oh, well you can obviously tell from the quality that it's ACM," and all that. That's my only real complaint about the vest. Stop worrying about what others say. Sometimes it's just envy of a decently made but still cheaper-than-theirs rig If you need a second rig I'd suggest a chest one instead of a plate carrier. I love my RRV for the M14 and SMG roles.

frogfish Posted July 25, 2011 Report Share Posted July 25, 2011 (edited) , I'm just starting to get tired of all the comments from the Crye fans... "oh, well you can obviously tell from the quality that it's ACM," and all that. Well my comment is not that its poor quality (sometimes Crye's stitching can be questionable), just that you can clearly tell the differences in build materials. AS an FYI for your MK17 kit Tyr's three MK17 mag pouch fits perfectly on the kangaroo flap I've got one on my CPC now. Oh and I need to mail you those stickers...PM me your address. http://www.tyrtactical.com/products/details/ammunitions-pouches/triple-sr25-scar-h-mag/ Edited July 25, 2011 by frogfish Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well, if it isn't falling apart under heavy use and you got it for a fraction of the price, I'd say it's money well spent. Edited July 27, 2011 by mrcheetos Quote Link to post Share on other sites

validtumoralarm Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Stop worrying about what others say. Sometimes it's just envy of a decently made but still cheaper-than-theirs rig If you need a second rig I'd suggest a chest one instead of a plate carrier. I love my RRV for the M14 and SMG roles. I know, I was in a bad mood. As far as the chest rig goes, I've kind of started to distance myself from them. I used to run an Eagle LE rig and a Pantac 1961a, but they didn't fit me too well, as I'm kind of slim. Also, I picked up an ATS .308 chest rig for my SCAR magazines and for some reason they're too wide for the internal pouch...or something. I can only get 3 in as opposed to the 4 I should get. Well my comment is not that its poor quality (sometimes Crye's stitching can be questionable), just that you can clearly tell the differences in build materials.

Oh and I need to mail you those stickers...PM me your address. http://www.tyrtactical.com/products/details/ammunitions-pouches/triple-sr25-scar-h-mag/ Thanks for the tip! Also, I wasn't upset about your comment, I was in a bad mood at the time of posting. I completely understand what you are saying and, yes, I can tell too. That said, I would still recommend this rig to anyone who likes the look but hates the price! It's convinced me to eventually drop the dough on a Crye JPC (in coyote, I'm not one for Multicam. Hate me if you must.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mimesis Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 JPC clone by Emerson. BTW, Emerson seems to have morphed into James. By the end of the year, I predict we'll be seeing Thoreau Plate Carriers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Jon Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 As promised, now with pouches. I'm fairly sure it'll all get moved around as it's unlikely a layout will just transfer straight over from the chest rig, but i'll see how it goes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wraith18A Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Do you find that the PTT is awkwardly located? It seems really high on the vest. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Jon Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 I guess I'm used to it being there, It always used to be on the MOLLE loops on my MAV's X-harness which where quite high up. It might well get moved around when I have to use it for any length of time though. This whole plate carrier deal is new to me, the whole layout will probably change quite a bit over time.

ryangolfvr6 Posted July 29, 2011 Report Share Posted July 29, 2011 Here my plate carrier I know some of you will say well why have you got Acu pouches on a multicam plate carrier, but to be honnest im not into all the gear stuff airsoft is all about fun to me so carnt care less what my gear looks like aslong as it works and carrys all the stuff I need P.S Dont mind the cat every time I get my plate carrier out she has to sniff at it and climb all over it.

abbadon101 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Yeah but when its that small it gets crowded very quickly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Murta369 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 I like it . is it just a regular hpc ? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mysl1 Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Looks like a DBT FAPC. Is one double mag pouch enough or do you use redimag sytem? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
colwombat Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 Its crowded, but I don't run with a belt or leg rig, everything I need is on the PC And yes, its a DBT XL Gen 2 FAPC. I have a Safariland AR15/M4 mag carrier on the right side and I have 3 more mags inside the cummerbund pocket. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RIXX Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 finally the Motorola PRC 153 Pouch (ILBE Kit) arrived Quote Link to post Share on other sites
C.J.Fox Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 This one is set up for heavy contact, shorter duration skirmishes. I've left plenty of space clear at the front to swiftly access magazines for reload. I run it with a 1st line belt holding a Safariland 6004 and large dump pouch. To explain the frag pouches on the rear, they are more for team mate accessibility, akin to a buddy system. Well, that's my excuse if anyone asks...

Bjerhof Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 (edited) Right, I know I've posted a pic of it before but it's had some changes made to it. So here it is, my RICAS. Not quite done yet but I reckon I'm getting there, it's going to be used in a Pathfinder impression so I hope I'm on the right track.
