What's to fix

dude never said where i said gen 2 was better in lo light

@Cataclysmo

My NVG stuff is in storage RN, not gonna take out my 14 or 9's just for a verification pic

thanks babe

Yeah

TBH-II HC

Yep

it's legit

The only thing is I got cucked on pads

thought it was coming with the Gentex ACH pads, came with TW standard ACH ones instead

I mean yeah

but I got it for $450 new with all the hardware

so i'm not complaining. Also XL

Should do an armed robbery of the education system

This one looks kinda gay ngl

makes you look like a mushroom

it's very wide on the bottom

having earpro helps but by itself you straight up look like a Toad nigga

rest of the stuff is pretty standard

Galil ACE w/ Vortex 1-6, Slingster, TLR-1, Zenit Perst-4 red/IR

Ferro Slickster w/ RMA 1155's (soon Hesco or 1189's), Source 3L hydro pack, Baofeng, meme patches, 4x 5.56 shingle

AWS LABS with all blade-tech shit

Only problem is galil is thicc as fuck, 12.something loaded

>$100 plates

>poor

>college

I should've said AR500 level III for mass triggering

No loans

part time job

feels bad man

I mean, i have the subsidized gimmedats loans

cause 0 interest rate

but paying the rest off myself with a lab tech job

having plates > not having plates

barring gay shit like steel but still

And it's the 1189 that's 8x10 iirc

new york was a fun thot experiment

might make more people swarm the gearqueer areas

got the Outdoor research lightweight gloves

they ripped in 6 months

feels bad

Mechanix are way too heavy though for stuff

hard to feel anything through them

lightweight gloves are nice, until they break

lol what

so he can perform a cavity search, but only up to 1 knuckle in

Boomer gear

any of you fags live in VA or MD?

weighing a move to one of the two right now and uncertain

MD laws are currently worse and a total clusterfuck, VA laws may be worse if they pass all the bullshit bills in January

Is it just me or are all the black friday deals trash

wanted to pick up a 75 SP-01, 2k 5.56, and a new IFAK but there's no good deals

Hey guys, I've got a HHV helmet and some AR500 steel plates, am i gucci too?

All in my Uncle Mike's plate carrier with exclusively Condor pouches

Yo gear queers

who here is autistic about ballistic plates

specifically about NIJ 0101.07 and why steel is objectively trash

I've got some interesting info

so you know how 07 makes HG1/HG2/RF1/etc right?

so Level III steel BTFO since no M193 at 3240fps resistance

So basically

AR500 is finally sucking it up and admitting that steel armor is shit

https://www.justnet.org/app/tims/CPLReport.aspx

NIJ list of approved armors

AR500 used to only have RMA 1155's for sale in terms of ceramic, at a doubled markup ($99 vs $199 on their site)

They now added a fuckton of Tencate and Hesco as well

Think they're trying to survive NIJ 0101.07 by transitioning from a shitty company selling defective armor at a markup to just a shitty company selling at a markup

Just some interesting info

Products aren't yet on their pages but their black friday stuff offers a Hesco 4400 for sale for example

Got a tipoff from a dude I know in ceramics

Lmfao

they literally are $250

ACH go for $100 in good condition on Ebay

but yeah, if you look at the list i posted, they just added a fuckton of new Tencate and Hesco certs

Just a heads up for you fags

think they have a few new RMA options as well but idk what they stocked before

TBH HC gang gang

Nope hasn't dropped yet, but seems like AR500 is finally bracing for impact

Yes, they're buying ceramic in bulk from a bunch of companies for resale, prepping for 07

Since RF1 is based and requires M193 at 3240 fps, which even Level III+ struggles with

*III+ steel that is

The Tencate UHMWPE stuff is gonna be RF1, all the other level III stuff RF2, Level IV RF3

Since RF2 is unbased and only requires M855 in addition to RF1, IMO they should've had to take M855A1 as well

It can

There's vids of point-blank AR500 III+ stopping M193 at full power

Steel armor is still retarded and heavy but III+ does stop M193 in most cases, AR680 was a notable bad exception

Yes

He does the 20" as well

Sure, it's not reliable

50gr Barnes out of a 24" could still probably poke a hole

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfA3Qv9JjBA&t=2s

3341 fps

And yes, agreed

Oh yeah it's not a great test

But I'm like, 80% that it could take 3240 fps based on that

still fucktarded

Oh incidentally

if you guys expect local PD at all please make sure you have proper M193 and not some knockoff shit
