Ok, so... the prospect of me moving to AZ is looking better and better... And so are the possibility of me buying my very own DPMS M4.
that being said, no AR is complete... (in my book, which is very long)
without the proper tactical gear. Vest, thigh/drop down rigs.
I'm looking for a basic rifleman's vest, mags, mags and more mags. but i want a modular system. I want to be able to mount 6 mag pouches, but still put a 12gauge pouch on, and i need a place for a gas mask pouch.
I was looking into the Molle systems, which are pretty nice. but i wanted to get some feed back from people that might have been down this road already. (sierra, i'm expecting something from you)
maybe to better give you an idea of how i'm going to carry myself.
loadout:
M4, so at least four 2-mag pouches.
I'm also going to be carrying a 9mm, ruger. I'll figure out how to get a thigh holster for that later... but still 9mm mags.
fixed blade knife.
I want a butt pack, canteen/hydration system (i'll be living in AZ for christ sake.)
and all the little pockets one needs for useless survival crap. compass, radio, light... etc. etc.
suggestions welcome... i like educated input from those with operational experience...
i'm going to try.. yes, try to keep this whole project under the $200 mark. but we'll see. i told my wife that outside of the rifle i want... i'll be spending about another grand on equipment, ammo... and optics.
she scowled at me.

Crash Maniac ArmasTermin So you're not sure what to get exactly or you know what you want, just not where to get it? If it's the latter: www.cheaperthandirt.com www.uscavalry.com i want options... i know basically what i want... its just a matter of putting it together. I've seen some of the vests that blackhawk, and some other's make... i'm not impressed. i mean those pre-made vests that you just throw on and go. thats why i'm so attracted to molle. i can put it together the way i want. is there a particular maker, that makes a molle type vest that stands out, for a reasonable price? i also was looking for experience, if you've used a particular brand/type and had good results... thankies for the links
That's why I like CTD--they have reviews on the products made by customers that on it, so you could get an idea of what to expect quality-wise before buying. And they're generally less expensive than most places. US Cavalry sells great, high-quality stuff, but is a tad overpriced in my opinion. |
