Lizzard Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Apparently the EBB Gen II is pretty good, according to Unit 318. But I think it only comes in CB, and that one's got a different, mesh padding anyway. Does look nice though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
frogfish Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Did he do a review somewhere? I remember Fellowz review where it didn't fit at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

navymp28 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Those are some great suggestions man. I'll admit that stack has some major problems, namely the point man not in control of his weapon. Also, shortly after the pic was taken, he threw the device to low and hit the door jam, so it essentially went off at our feet. . I was thinking about the high port postion, but I was afraid in the heat of the moment I'd barrel strike the dude in front of me. Â The High-port is the best way to do an entry (actually for everything) I was trained in both ways high-port and low ready and High-port is the better of the two hands down. There is a reason that NSW has been useing High-port for quite some time. Â Some advice wanted or not is as follows: Â The stack as already mentioned is really loose and there is no control element at all. The #2 man should be driveing the stack and keeping the #1 man in check. Once your team gets good at this type of stuff your #1 man is going to want to go, go, go and #2 needs to keep him from going prematurely. There is no points of contact on your guys either. How are you guys going to give a signal to move? Â In one pic one of the doods is on the wall, leaning on it. That is a bad idea and can make undue noise that can give away the fact your there and wanting to make entry. Your #1 can use his off hand to toss in the grenade and really shouldn't be peeking in the room. He could catch a round in the face and then now you have a casualty as well as some one now blocking the door. If he was to go down...well you step over him and keep making entry. Â Just some observations. There is alot of great material out there that can help out a little. but to be honest nothing beats haveing some experience or someone on the team that knows what he is doing in some form or another. But to be honest there is a million ways to skin a cat....but some ways get that *beep* balder faster. Â The NZSAS dood in MC is Willie Apiata an extremely decorated NZSAS soldier and that pic is causeing some serious drama..LOL. Â Eizen nice kit by the way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lizzard Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 All the advice given on the stack has been pretty helpful to me (not even my pick haha), thanks to those who've taken the time. Â Anyone else think that the comms unit on the left SAS soldier in that pic was a giant fastex buckle at first? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lizzard Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 It's hard to tell from the lighting, but it almost looks like you have Crye Combat Pants with upside-down pads? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noveske Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Is that a real deal Cage or a replica? Â Â It's the OPS by UR-Tactical modular plate carrier. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noveske Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 I think it's the replica Gen II Chassis EBB sells; not a CAGE Chassis. Or maybe not the EBB one, since it lacks the black padding. Â Â No it's not EBB. It's the OPS by UR-Tactical Modular Plate Carrier. EBB.. Bleh! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Schultz98 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 2 of my team mates at a game recently, multicam works very well in this cold wintery climate. (the one on the left is chinese gear) I ran across this thread and saw this picture. that is so effective!!! looks great. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blue4 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 Stalker TDUs mate and now you mention it I might well have had em in upside down all day... oops! Â Â Apart from the upside down pads in the trousers are those the 'chassis' shoulder pads you're wearing with the RICAS? I think the interceptor ones would look better...

spetsnazdave87 Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 (edited) They're flyye imitations modded to fit the RICAS... TBH im not sure about them, they're good for a bit of padding as was jumping into rocky cover fairly frequently yesterday but aesthetically I feel like a tactical Joan Collins  Close up   Edited February 1, 2010 by spetsnazdave87 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted February 1, 2010 Report Share Posted February 1, 2010 http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/2053/photo0056editj.jpg  Your knee-holster is riding a little low. I would suggest removing the upper thigh strap and bringing it up until the butt of the pistol rides just below your belt line.  Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SDU_Phil Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 (edited) can any comment on the quality of UR Tactical products? I'm interested in this vest and I'm a little concerned about the stitching. Additionally the buckle on the shoulder looks like it could get uncomfortable fast, especially carrying a full load.

Lizzard Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Stalker TDUs mate and now you mention it I might well have had em in upside down all day... oops! The pads don't have the large foam backing that the Crye ones have, I'm guessing. Â Just looked up those TDUs, look quite interesting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Nope they do, Ill try and get a pic up later Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kojak Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Then the Stalker pad is symmetrical? What he meant was there is no way to put the Crye pad in upside down, because the outer bumper is positioned near the top of the inner foam. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 Still trying to get my head round that... theres a symmetrical gap in the trousers for the pads, and the pads slot in with a bit of foam behind the plastic.. if that makes sense? I havent got my trousers with me at the moment so cant describe it any better :s will try in a bit! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted February 4, 2010 Report Share Posted February 4, 2010 I'm guessing that the Stalker uses the same design except that the hard outer cap is attached upside down (relative to the Crye Combat Pads) to the foam in an effort to avoid infringement. Which probably means the opening in the pants for the foam to fit through is shaped similarly to their outer cap making Crye Combat pads not usable with the Stalker pants.

Â Â I've got the Low Profile CHest Rig from OPS. Very nice Kit, no stitching issues and feels very solid. I haven't skirmished it yet, so it's not broken in and a bit stiff. Â Quality is up there with Pantac i'd say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
