If the tip is green, see a doctor

Plates 🤤

2020-05-13 18:06:23 UTC  

Heh random thought. When I'm old, it'd be funny to have one of those old glass cabinets that people keep their fine china in, except full of ceramic plates

"We only use these for special occasions"

2020-05-13 18:32:53 UTC  

Lol that would be badass

2020-05-13 18:35:54 UTC  

@[LA] Zoomer Medi/k/ did you go with shellback?

2020-05-13 18:36:22 UTC  

I’m going to save up and get the Shellback Rampage because it has the clips that I can use for a Microfight.

2020-05-13 18:36:44 UTC  

So basically I know what I’m gonna do. Get the PC, get the Microfight, and then set both up to my liking.

2020-05-13 18:36:50 UTC  

Once my PC is entirely done, move to belt.

2020-05-13 18:37:15 UTC  

Yea that’s what I got. The rampage.

2020-05-13 18:37:22 UTC  

I like it

2020-05-13 18:37:34 UTC  

Are there any low profile plate carriers to wear under a hoodie?

2020-05-13 18:37:48 UTC  

They advertise the rampage as a low profile

2020-05-13 18:37:58 UTC  

But I don’t think it is

2020-05-13 18:38:10 UTC  

I took a picture yesterday one second

2020-05-13 18:38:25 UTC  

Oh ok I was about to look it up

2020-05-13 18:38:55 UTC  

Not bad I suppose. You'll be obvious in a shirt, but it might work under a sweatshirt

2020-05-13 18:39:36 UTC  

Yea prob will be obvious in a sweatshirt. They make other ones though.

Luckily we bundle up in winter here, easy to conceal then. Summer doesn't seem doable.

2020-05-13 18:42:19 UTC  

Yeaa probs not. Maybe some 3a soft armor

2020-05-13 18:42:36 UTC  

Level IV plates are kinda thick

2020-05-13 18:42:50 UTC  

I like the low profile stuff, and a lot of minimalist things. As someone who needs to rotate and move (medical boy), low profile and easy to maneuver in is amazing.

2020-05-13 18:42:54 UTC  

I'd hate to wear soft armor in the summer where I'm at

2020-05-13 18:43:14 UTC  

Layered kevlar is such a good insulator that they use it for stuff like industrial oven mitts

2020-05-13 18:43:59 UTC  

Damn really?

2020-05-13 18:44:45 UTC  

I did glassblowing for several years and we'd use kevlar sleeves when working with particularly large pieces

2020-05-13 18:46:04 UTC  

Guns take priority over plate carriers I would assume. Right?

2020-05-13 18:46:21 UTC  

If you wanted to wear any armor in the summer, I'd say you'd probably want lighter weight ceramic armor with something like an armorvent slapped on your pc.
Also yeah pc's are near the bottom of the list on priority

2020-05-13 18:48:03 UTC  

Near the bottom? I thought maybe right behind guns, ammo and training would be a good PC.

2020-05-13 18:49:43 UTC  

Carry pistol with a quality concealed kydex holster, ammo and training, medical stuff, a rifle, other general survival things like food and bleach for purifying water, maybe a chest rig for higher level training, then after all of that and probably some other stuff, armor

2020-05-13 18:55:06 UTC  

When determining what equipment you need, you've gotta figure out what the most likely scenarios are. Before all of that, you should really have a fire extinguisher in your house, since in the end it sorta serves the same purpose as any other equipment, keeping you alive and your property protected.

2020-05-13 18:56:57 UTC  

I guess I forgot that not everyone stockpiles food and supplies lol

2020-05-13 18:57:41 UTC  

I have a decent amount, could use more though. I think about 2-3 months worth

2020-05-13 18:58:22 UTC  

maybe longer, it's nutritious but disgusting, so it's only really palatable if I'm really hungry

2020-05-13 19:00:16 UTC  

I have enough rice and beans to survive on for a few months. I will absolutely hate rice after, but I'll live if necessary.

2020-05-13 19:01:17 UTC  

Oh I forgot about my rice lol. Yeah it'd last a good long while
