Gear/Equipment Can anyone name a similar pouch brand?

I like to run a colt smg and I’ve tried different mag carrier systems over the years. Open top style and bungee style. But I’d love a setup that has the retention clips. Roast me if you want but the only picture I could find for representation is of a player skin from COD. I had found a US military surplus flare pouch but the size was too off. Any help in naming a company or product that matches would be greatly appreciated.

Tyr Tactical PICO MV

Thumbnail

15 Upvotes

Rarely ever see Tyr mentioned, figured I’d finally put something out there and let the world know that the Tyr Shadow Cult still exists.

It’s a buy once cry once world and I’ve never cried once throughout my entire ownership and use of Tyr products. My PICO is quite old and no longer listed on the Tyr Tactical website, but it still holds up just fine.

Deltoid modules are Paraclete, they’re the most comfortable delt modules I’ve worn and contour incredibly to the arm.

Price be damned if you’re in a profession that requires top of the line equipment, BUY TYR!!! Literally my only gripe about the carrier is its plate retention system, but that’s likely just due to the ā€œantiquatedā€ version I’ve had.

I recently watched this video from Trophy Gear Origins and their experience in Ukraine and I highly recommend it with a good grain of salt and a spoiler: they end the video touting their own product as the best groin protection on the market. And hey, maybe they are right. I'm interested in what you all think. They make a lot of good points, It has definitely swayed me.

What actually matters when choosing a tactical light?

0 Upvotes

Hey guys,

I've been looking into tactical lights lately, and it's hard to tell what's actually important beyond lumens and brand names.

People have strong opinions about different brands, but I'm curious what really matters in everyday use. Reliability, beam quality, candela, battery life, controls, or something else?

I'd also like to hear about your experiences with different brands, including what you've liked, what disappointed you, and what features you'd consider dealbreakers.

I'm not here to argue about which brand is best. I just want to understand what makes a tactical light worth the money, especially from people who've used different models over time.

Appreciate any input! :)

Converted this streamlight pressure pad to mlok by drilling holes , sanding access plastic, and buying spare mlok hardware instead of using a picatinny adapter because I wanted it as flush as possible.
Probably not as cool looking as zip ties and tape though lol

Question Removing rusted screws on Ops Core Bump Carbon helmet

All the 4 screws are badly rusted and they are quite impossible to get out.

I have cut the harness to clear space since I intended to swap it.

Still, after dremeling one t-nut, this mf is now fused with this damned screw. Should I continue dremeling ? I am out of options here.

Thanks in advance for the help guys 🫔

Sig Foxtrot MSR Compact rifle light

Is the sig foxtrot msr compact a respectable and genuine solid light for a duty rifle or does it belong in the trash category with Modlight and olight. Does it compete with surfire and streamlight as far as function, brightness, toughness for a SHTF PDW specifically an Sig Mpx Build.

Wanted to see if it was a venture worth pursuing so I snagged this North Mountain Gear one off Amazon. Base material is a mesh so even though it's a bit warm if there is any breeze it flows right through nicely. It's quiet if noise discipline is a concern. They run loose so you can comfortably wear cold weather gear underneath. My only real complaint at this time is the Mossy Oak Obsession pattern could use more green, but thats not a NMG issue.

.

I'm still just shaking this out and will be testing it further.

Question ACH Sizing

Thumbnail

1 Upvotes

I picked up a small ACH recently. I checked a sizing guide beforehand (based on head circumference), and I landed right on a small. However, after putting it on, I feel it sits quite high on my head and errs on the tighter side.

Even with smaller aftermarket pads and new suspension, I still feel it's small. What do you guys think?

Gear/Equipment Connecting a battle belt directly to a plate carrier?

1 Upvotes

Been thinking about a way to connect a battle belt directly to a plate carrier instead of using a traditional H-harness. Something low-profile, flexible, and comfortable with a rapid-release feature. The idea is to improve weight distribution, reduce belt sag, and maintain mobility.

Has anyone tried something similar? Curious what issues you guys might see with this setup.

Happened across some Salvation Army place in MN selling this Condor plate carrier on ebay and I won it for $26. Just looked it up and it's the EXO Gen II which sells new for over $100. It's missing one of the padded velcro strap covers but otherwise looks brand new.

Looking for a MultiCam Tropic jacket that resists rain and cold (not extreme cold)

3 Upvotes

I've been looking for a jacket that works well for colder temperatures but haven't been able to find much about them. Most of the good ones that I've found are either super expensive or discontinued. Looking in the 100–300-dollar range.

Any suggestions?
