Yeah, but its there if you need to

2019-07-22 22:21:38 UTC  

I guess but that again goes back to my point of the harness being unnecessary becauae the benefits are lost on most, if not all, users

2019-07-22 22:22:52 UTC  

Yeah, that is a good point.

2019-07-22 22:23:37 UTC  

12-16 mag setups isn't that crazy and people already do them with other setups

2019-07-22 22:23:45 UTC  

ehhh it's pretty wack

2019-07-22 22:24:06 UTC  

Most medium or large carriers accommodate for it 🤷

2019-07-22 22:24:08 UTC  

you definitely notice the extra weight when you carry 2x of a standard combat load

2019-07-22 22:24:24 UTC  

and the bulk sucks, at that point there's nowhere good to put your mags

2019-07-22 22:25:06 UTC  

Ok what's standard load tho

2019-07-22 22:25:12 UTC  

12 seems pretty normal

2019-07-22 22:25:33 UTC  

like 7-8

2019-07-22 22:25:35 UTC  

12 is a lot

2019-07-22 22:25:58 UTC  

To carry or as a loadout

2019-07-22 22:26:03 UTC  

like once you start thinking about where to put the mags especially if you don't like double stacking, it sucks to go over 7-8

2019-07-22 22:26:06 UTC  

wym

2019-07-22 22:26:18 UTC  

the weight isn't crazy, like 1lb per mag

2019-07-22 22:26:23 UTC  

but the bulk sucks

2019-07-22 22:26:27 UTC  

unless half of those are in a pack

2019-07-22 22:26:30 UTC  

Carrying 12 mags being wack or the need for 12 mags

2019-07-22 22:27:03 UTC  

Being wack

2019-07-22 22:29:39 UTC  

Because there's plenty of ancedotal evidence saying 12 mags is pretty normal if not preferable to anyone actually doing any shooting

2019-07-22 22:30:35 UTC  

i mean it really depends what you're doing

2019-07-22 22:30:51 UTC  

there are also lots of units that never carry over 7-8

2019-07-22 22:31:39 UTC  

Yeah but what are they doing, like I don't expect VBSS niggas or SFABs do carry more than 8

2019-07-22 22:31:50 UTC  

nah

2019-07-22 22:32:17 UTC  

You don’t carry all your mags on your carrier

2019-07-22 22:32:21 UTC  

Yeah

2019-07-22 22:32:23 UTC  

i mean if chuck pressburg is anything to go by, most of the units doing nighttime direct action stuff only carried like 4 on body

2019-07-22 22:32:31 UTC  

You can either put extras in a pack or have them in your vehicle

2019-07-22 22:32:49 UTC  

So a plate carrier supporting 12-16 mags is whack

2019-07-22 22:33:04 UTC  

But that's my point, with the AVS, you'd never go past 8 mags

2019-07-22 22:33:11 UTC  

or similar amounts

2019-07-22 22:33:15 UTC  

they go in your pack

2019-07-22 22:33:21 UTC  

ok now i understand wym

2019-07-22 22:33:22 UTC  

lmao

2019-07-22 22:33:24 UTC  

fair

2019-07-22 22:33:28 UTC  

so you'd never reach a weight where the harness is ever appreciable

2019-07-22 22:33:34 UTC  

or noticable

2019-07-22 22:33:35 UTC  

🤔

2019-07-22 22:33:46 UTC  

You said a 12-16 mag loadout isn’t crazy

2019-07-22 22:33:55 UTC  

sorry didn't specify pack
