Fellowz Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 any pics of it fully loaded? oh and do you need suspenders for it? Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) any pics of it fully loaded? oh and do you need suspenders for it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No pics. You should generally get suspenders for any major load bearing belt. Takes the weight and strain off your waist/hips and redistributes that to your shoulders. The HSGI suspenders are great. But they're simple and if you can sew, you could make your own ones easily. When I want to play light, I'll put mags on the belt, then the suspenders, and the Crye Range vest goes over that. So you don't really notice the suspenders but they'll still give you all the support you need. Edited August 10, 2007 by uscmCorps Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 it is a hard decision. Blackwater or Borris' Belt. Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Boris's comes with D-rings to attach suspenders if you want them. I dont use them on my battle belt and its fine. I can get 5 m4 mag pouches, 2 pistol pouches, a mid.sized utility pouch and a large radio pouch on my belt. I could get more on if i doubled up, but none of my pouches have molle loops on the outside. Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 did it slide down or was uncomfortable when in the field? Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Nope, lovely and soft, ive got the strap tight around my waist so its not going any where. When the pouch at the back is full, it gets a bit rear heavy and sometime sits at an angle. But that's because im trying to stuff to much in it lol. Link to post Share on other sites

Fellowz Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 that looks awsome! i really want one now Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Yeah it's great, really nice for a highspeed lowdrag ( ) set up. I have to admit, when i was prone with it on, it did swivle round when i moved from side to side. But i am a skinny guy around the waist (28-30"). Link to post Share on other sites
Fellowz Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 awsome! the high speed low drag is the look im going for (transformers inspired) haha im looking forward to getting it all completed. Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 Same, although im trying to cap my spending and saving for the crye armour. But people keep selling stuff that i want, the bastards Link to post Share on other sites
Architect Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 how do you plan on getting hold of the crye armour lol? Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) I have a friend that is in a position to buy one from crye. They are easy to get hold of if you know how, dont mind waiting and dont mind paying the money they cost Edited August 10, 2007 by msx361 Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 dont mind waiting and dont mind paying the money they cost <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Out of curiosity... how long do they take and how much will it cost? I know they start at around US$2,300 Link to post Share on other sites
DesertFox Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I remember hearing something about crye not taking orders for it unless its more than 20 units Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted August 10, 2007 Report Share Posted August 10, 2007 I remember hearing something about crye not taking orders for it unless its more than 20 units <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You mean that they only process orders when they have more than 20 units on order from various separate orders collectively, or that they will only accept single orders of 20 or more units!?!! If it's the latter, that kind of makes sense as I'd imagine it would be more efficient to make 20 vests at once than each one, one by one. That's kind of the way Eagle Industries does stuff too. Their minimum order is around 25 pieces if you want something done that is out of stock or made in a specific camo pattern. Problem with Eagle is that right now they're getting hammered with DOD contracts so a lot of their stuff is on severe back order with no estimate delivery in sight because they keep pushing back orders another 10-12 weeks. So if you see something in stock... buy it! (p.s. I cleared out Triad Tactical's stock of Eagle Ind. M4 Multicam Pouches, heh heh... So the rest of ya gotta wait 6+ months if ya want them!)
