Casey Brown Layers, layers and layers have a lot of clothing layers. That's the thing I learned in the fdf (Finnish defense forces) so yeah below -40°F winters. If you're shit out of luck dig a hole in the snow and sleep there, eat pine needles and don't expose your skin to the cold if not absolutely necessary. If you fall into the water, don't panic and when you get out change quick. Crosdcountry skies are the best way to move around, not the normal ones get slmething thicker. Also if working with vehicles, keep a blowtorch ready so you can heat up the engine block, don't know how it works with civilian vehicles and all the plastics they nowadays have.

Thank you, I just got my plate carrier and I wasn't super sure where to adjust it to. I work in the medical field and I would say that your logic is sound, another reason to not stack mags on your front is because it shifts the weight even further forward away from your spine. That increases your chances of suffering a back injury, as well as making you less stable on your feet.

I would think much of the same philosophy would apply to a bolt action set up; only the specifics would change as needed. Ammo and/or mag pouches would different different. As most bolt gunners "shoot and scoot" you most likely would want to keep it light and low profile. Think first, what does a bolt gunner need, then choose the molle gear to hold that. Bad guys HATE snipers! I'm sure an entire video could be devoted to the sniper load out. Set-ups for precision bolt gun work typically don't require a lot of ammo.

Great video Garand Thumb, very informative! I like the mantra *Stop Holes, Plug Holes, Make Holes.* Very simple way to remember what is important about setting up a PC. The clearance issue with pouches on the front is a particularly good point, I have heard stories of guys getting shot in the derriere because they could not get low enough. Another suggestion for anyone setting up a PC or any LBV is to just put it on and wear it and see how it feels. Run and jump and crawl in it if you have to. In my experience that is when you will know if a pouch set up is ideal or idiotic. _Looking cool is half the battle_

So I've watched some of your videos in the last couple days and have been enjoying them, but by far this has been the most straight forward one, which I really appreciated. I setup my rig in a lot of different ways and moved around as much as possible with each configuration and found that less is more at times, but still didn't feel 100% about it in the end, hence I watched this video. I also wanted to incorporate a battle belt so if I had to drop my plate carrier I'd still have some back-up gear, which proved a little challenging when crouched or going prone. In the end I left the majority of the gear on the plate carrier, figuring I'd scavenge as needed until getting to safety. I did notice there wasn't any sort of knife/cutting instrument nor spare pistol mags on your rig and am wondering why that was. Lastly, thank you for your efforts in spreading knowledge and your service.

As a goof I used my battle belt as a cummerbund looped through the straps and buckles of my minimalist plate carrier. Very supportive and sturdy but mainly fitted very well to the circumference of the vest straps and my torso, now I have a lot of molle room leading to me adding a first aide pouch and 2 extra mag pouches to my left and right sides. Adds back support because I have the back of the belt looped on the inside of my pc because; of my hydration pouch/fitted better that way. You can’t tell because of my added pouches, that it isn’t a cummerbund but technically the battle belt is just a high end cummerbund on your waist without plates/pads. The room saved because of the shape of the battle belt’s design is why I am not looking for a cummerbund, I can even add side plates and still have enough real estate to add a radio pouch etc..

Very useful advice! Thanks for mentioning the lateral protection, because that (in my opinion) is an essential area to protect. Is the module option just as effective as a carrier which includes built-in lateral plate pockets?
@HangtownTactical Жыл бұрын
Depends..The add on side plate pouches will work just as well for running hard side plate armor as a carrier with a cummerbund designed with pockets for hard plates. However.. a lot of the carriers that comes with cumberbunds designed for armor also have large pockets that cover the entire cumberbund meant for running soft armor panels. If your just planning on running hard side plates which is most likely what you’d wanna do , the add on side plate pockets will work just as well. However you would get a lot more protection for fragmentation with the soft armor/ side plate combo on the carriers that comes with armor capable cumberbunds .

Talking about mag direction, there are two basic grips that people use (may not be "official" terminology), either a pinch grip, where the palm is on the base, or a claw which is what you did where the palm is on the side. Pinch needs bullets forward (relative to whichever side is non-firing at the time around the front to the other side), claw needs bullets back. Pinch is good for grasping magazines that are low or very high up. Claw is good for speed since the grip is higher so you have more control. Claw has a lower range of flexibility limited to the non-firing side pouches, and the front pouches favoring the non-firing side. The way I set up are mags on the non dominant side is bullets back with claw, front is pinch (bullets forward) and on the dominant side bullets are also front relative to the nondominant side (but they are facing to the back). I set up this way so no matter which shoulder I am firing from, I always have a primary reloading pouch that uses the faster claw grip. When I need to top off things using my front mags, I use a pinch grip for my dominant side shooting, and claw for my non-dominant.

Great professional video. I need to play this video when I'm the range with gear snobs.

It will probably trigger them so I'd highly recommend it.

i have a plate carrier setup and it is a 10x 12 plate holding carrier. The only thing is that the buckle for the shoulder straps interferes with my gunstock and im honestly ok with it it just can be annoying to shoulder my gun. Now i am looking for real plates and yes people are gonna be replying to me saying that i shouldn't put real level 3a plates in a vest meant for MILSIM, but i have to work with what i got. Also plate carriers to me seem over priced as shit rn like i want a 6094 but GODAM there like $550 which is highly out of my buget including $400 for 1 plate each

Damn I just put this on because I'm in the market, and I really thought this dude was just pushing a video through the worst day of his life, didn't realize this was 6 years ago. Crazy what pit vipers will do for a man's mood
