Plates 🤤
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"
Lol that would be badass
@[LA] Zoomer Medi/k/ did you go with shellback?
I’m going to save up and get the Shellback Rampage because it has the clips that I can use for a Microfight.
So basically I know what I’m gonna do. Get the PC, get the Microfight, and then set both up to my liking.
Once my PC is entirely done, move to belt.
Yea that’s what I got. The rampage.
I like it
Are there any low profile plate carriers to wear under a hoodie?
They advertise the rampage as a low profile
But I don’t think it is
I took a picture yesterday one second
Oh ok I was about to look it up
Not bad I suppose. You'll be obvious in a shirt, but it might work under a sweatshirt
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.
Yeaa probs not. Maybe some 3a soft armor
Level IV plates are kinda thick
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.
I'd hate to wear soft armor in the summer where I'm at
Layered kevlar is such a good insulator that they use it for stuff like industrial oven mitts
Damn really?
I did glassblowing for several years and we'd use kevlar sleeves when working with particularly large pieces
Guns take priority over plate carriers I would assume. Right?
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
Near the bottom? I thought maybe right behind guns, ammo and training would be a good PC.
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
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.
I guess I forgot that not everyone stockpiles food and supplies lol
I have a decent amount, could use more though. I think about 2-3 months worth
maybe longer, it's nutritious but disgusting, so it's only really palatable if I'm really hungry
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.
Oh I forgot about my rice lol. Yeah it'd last a good long while
Most of my stock is soylent since it's basically carbs, protein, and vitamins. It tastes like cheerios and protein powder thrown in a blender though
I bought a two year supply of toilet paper back in December cause I had a good deal. Who knew it would become the new gold standard? 😂
