Looking for some opinions on lightweight bipods for my 14.5 - namely the GRND Pod from MDT or even the QD magpul bipod. I currently have this GG&G bipod but it lacks a lot of the adjustments and features that other bipods seem to have.
This is for when I'm generally out on a motorbike but wanna keep it low profile.
Anyone have any alternatives I should look at in a similar price point that a civilian can buy?
Most of what I did, I kept Helo and medical as my primary factors. Recce on the side.
What do we think? I changed out the side buckles so that it would fit this harness, and then used Paracord to add buckles to the lower side, and then added a back strap so that it's more secure. I need to change out the interior mag pouch tops, but I'm currently too broke.
Hey guys. Just got this set at a yard sale for $100. Bought them from a former Airborne guy and I think I did pretty good but I'm having some trouble finding info about this kit.
From what I can gather, the carrier is/was GI issue to the Marines? and it seems like the plates may be military issue as well. I'm brand new to learning about armor, so any info is appreciated, including the possible value of these because I got another carrier/plates from the same yard sale so I may sell these.
Taps Rig, Medium Woodland Alice Pack, Condor??? Outer Battle Belt, LC3 Alice Belt Inner, Krydex G3 Woodland, 50/50 BDU Raid Modded, USMC 8 Point Utility Cap ( Unpictured, Danner Combat Boots, Black Riggers Belt )
1x Warrior Assault System Admin panel (fold out plastic sleeves
3x Nixie Works Universal mag pouch
1x Eagle utility pouch for dangler (medical)
1x spiritus Nalgene
1x spiritus mutant pouch
1x Tac Tailor V med (used to hold surv site tools)
Still working on whether medical should be crammed into the med pouch and use the dangler for utility / tools
Whatever You want to know or say, ill answer or listen
So I went ahead and bit the bullet, I ordered the A-25 from the website direct and 2 weeks later it’s at my doorstep.
Initial impressions: reminds me a lot of the FCPC v5 in design but there’s a few things I like better on this platform. The wider shoulder straps and the fact it actually comes with pads is a good plus. The wider and bigger quick release buckle also makes it easier to work with gloves. I really like the wider cummerbund aswell. Comfort wise its distributes weight well, the carrier itself is also amazingly light.
The overall design I fucks with heavy, and anything in atacs is just chefs kiss. Went ahead and bought the Kevlar inserts for the front and the cummerbund, just waiting for that and all the pouches to come in the next package.
Overall stitching and fabric is good, no loose threads and nothing feels cheap (which it better fucking not because of how much this shit cost). Once everything is all here I’ll conduct a torture test of it to see how it all looks and performs.
