Looking for a good PC that will fit my small sapi plates

Jpc maybe??

LBX 0300 does a small I think

How do those plastic straps hold up?

JPC runs Hypalon. Not exactly plastic, thin but very durable fabric

Pretty well to be honest, and yes hes right 👆

dope I thought it was a rubber looking material didn’t know it was a cloth

Its not really cloth either

Think GoreTex type feel

Feels weird but pretty durable

Esstac WTFix straps are the same shit, if you have those

That jpc build isn't done either, still need to put some other shit on it

What do you mean? Like install the cumber buns?

He’s got a cummerbund on, prob means an IFAK etc

It needs a back panel, one more mag pouch and possibly a pistol pouch

here is my JPC set up.

You bitches better show me your IFAKs

am checking

I wish I had this shit. No money

also, I swear to god if someone is using a tampon in their kit I will jump through the phone and strangle you

Can’t use tampons in a kit you don’t have

Tampons will probably kill you faster than nothing

Does anyone have any preferences for footwear? I usually wear tennis shoes everyday, but I have work boots and hiking boots. The problem I run into is that my tennis shoes (my only comfortable option) wear out pretty quick and I've never found a pair of boots that were comfortable to wear for extended periods of time or that were easy to run in. Do ya'll know of any cross between them that is durable and protective, but also comfortable and non-restrictive?

I’m wearing Danner Tanicus boots.

I hear the Salomon GTXs (something like that, I don’t remember the specific) are nice

I'll check those out as soon as stores are back open

Check out gear sites and see if they look like what you want.

Just looked at some. Looks about like what i'd expect, but I'd have to try um out. They gotta fancy price tag though. lol

I’ve seen them go for $100 shipped

That's pretty nice

Very.

I got my Danners for ~$95 shipped

dang, that's not bad

Got a good discount tho

Like 50%

Maybe if society doesn't collapse before black friday.....

lol

Lol

cuz it doesn't look like I'll be getting to my summer job this year

That sucks

it'd be fine, but it means no money for gear

Yeah that’s not good

*quickly fills out McDonald's application*

All of you can use that information as needed.

Alright Bois, I don’t know Jack shit so I have a question. What should be first priority, gun?

Gear or training

I suggest a Glock for a pistol

First step? I’d say knowledge.

Gear as in plates and vest?

And an AR or AK for gun

Vests, armor, helmets, gloves, supplies, weapons

Gear is everything that is separate from clothing and is outerwear. Carrier, plates, pouches.

Your first step should be a gun.

Carrier can’t do shit but stop rounds.

Agreed

At that point, if you’re receiving rounds, and have no gun, you’re fucked anyway.

Gun and no plates beats plates and no gun.

Man, I'm jelly I got fucked over on money, so I'm probably cannon fodder to most of yall, 😅🤣😭

And you shouldn’t be any more confident about taking fire with plates.

Of course not

Still need to take cover.

And trust me, don’t go overboard with gear either.

AR-15 platform that uses either 5.56 or 223 wylde. I would also suggest a 9mm of some sort as that ammunition will be the most abundant. THEN get a plate carrier with level III+ or IV plates. Make sure you have an IFAK attached to that bitch. All of the plates in the world wont matter if you get shot in the leg and bleed out. Then TRAIN TRAIN TRAIN.

When rounds pop, you won’t be able to get low enough.

To be entirely honest, I would start with a belt setup.

Battle belt?

It’s not as expensive, and still you get modularity, and a mounting platform for equipment.

I always forget about a belt because that seems obvious. Something sturdy that you can throw a holster and mag pouch on.

Also for anyone that needs book smarts I got ya

Now this might sound stupid, but I believe I have a solid drop leg platform from *airsoft*

Tony, for any loadout/gear stuff, that link up above labeled “Gear Loadout” goes from head to toe.

First purchase: concealable pistol

Airsoft isn't recommended cuz the weight difference between real n air

Understandable yeah

Concealable pistol. Okay
