ColSanders Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 ...When instead of buying a Belt you use Malice clips and cinch together distant belt loops... ...You try to figure out how to attach a molle set up to your instrument case and your back pack for the sake of attaching them and getting one more hand free (yes... have tried) ... When you use an Alice pack as you school backpack ... When instead of a normal belt you invest in one that could hold up a holster that you don't own. ... When you spend $300 on an eotech ...When you buy a weesatch, $200 in pouches and have yet to find a way to use all the pouches ... You've participated in the pictures thread of yourself in your gear and had someone else take the photo ...Try to figure out how to properly show off your Weesatch and all the pouches from all angles ... Take a dental pick to all your gear after a skirmish to get out all the mud ...Bounce around the house in full gear seeing if anything moves and makes noise ... When describing your gear in a picture it takes up more than half a page ... Can apply anyone number of these to yourself ... Take out all your magazines after skirmishing from your pouches as to not stretch out the pouches ...Constantly carry a multitool on you despite working in a kitchen to disassemble boxes where knives are plentiful ... Wear your BDU top to school because its a good "windbreaker" More to follow... must consult the others... Alex "Col Sanders" Link to post Share on other sites

rageman Posted September 30, 2005 Report Share Posted September 30, 2005 You get a worried and confused from your brothers girlfriend when she comes in the room at 3am and finds you fixing his computer sitting in full loadout with an MP5 strapped across your chest. You've sat in full NBC gear at a party finding the little tube in your S-10 respirator doesnt sully the taste of your beer and wonder what it would be like if you had to puke. Your "spiving around house" atire consists of crappy old dressing gown, DPM trousers, flip flops and an MP5 strapped to your chest. You walk to work and have that sudden horrid feeling that your still carrying your sidearm or your MP5 Strapped to your chest. Your reading this and have an MP5 strapped to your chest. When your with your mates in a pub and thier all staring at a womans chest, you think "wouldnt those get in the way of strapping down your MP5?". PS I love my MP5 Link to post Share on other sites
