Title: Check Out the Gears!
Post by: Ganef on July 17, 2005, 11:42:43 AM: Here are photos of some of my gear, and a few pices of gear that are not mine. I just finished making the helmet cover and had to suit up and show off the gears. so here they are:

Here is me in my CRYE field uniform with my TT MAV and SOTech bib, I have an Eagle RAID on my back, new CB alta knee pads, MICH copy with MC helmet cover, oakley M frames eyewear, Sordin supreme pros, and Hatch gloves holding my M4.

Here is my M733 that matches my M4 but shoots way too hot to bring to games. ;)

Post by: Ganef on July 17, 2005, 11:45:22 AM: My welcos were a bit dirty from work, I plan to take a pair and remake them using multicam cordura.

Post by: studdermonkey on July 17, 2005, 11:54:24 AM: Ok, just because I'm jealous, you're not gettin' your fabric! Sick shit, man.. Can't wait to see it at the games. Are you gonna wear the helmet at standard games?

I just got those same kneepads in yesterday. They work ok with multicam, I see. Thanks for the test pic! :-P And, damnit, the velcro on the pockets are there to use! Slap the LC4 patch there, if it's a last resort!

Also, your pictures are a pretty good example how you don't need all your gear to be multicam to blend in. I could hardly tell what was MC and what wasn't, till I took a good look.

Can't wait to take a closer look next game.

Edit: Ok, everyone that I've seen with the Crye field set didn't order the kneepads. Dave (Gixer), I heard your Multicam will be here/is here. Did you order kneepads? And is there something I don't know? Why does no-one want the Crye kneepads?

Sorry if it seems a bit off topic.

I gots to get me some of dem CB alta's.

Post by: yellowmonkey on July 17, 2005, 01:14:53 PM: I'm feeling primitive with my fake MARPAT. Very snazzy!

What did you pay for all the multicam stuff, or did you make your uniform?
Title:
Post by: chainsaw on July 17, 2005, 01:17:44 PM: Nice camo on the gun! I really love it.

Post by: Ganef on July 17, 2005, 01:21:15 PM: Studder the helmet and cover are not mine, I just had to sport them for fun since I finished the cover. Do not worry about my pices of flair I had 8 and two of them were IR flags, but you are right I should have filled up every loop with signage. As for knee pads, I am still trying different things. Also the Raid is CB and so is my rig, the mag puches from Emdom (EMODEMOE) are MC. I will be making a MC rig soon enough... so prepare yourself.

Greg, the Ralph is velcro backed. The CB altas do look strange in different light so check them out at a game before purchase.

YellowMK, The Uniform is from Crye costing a little over $200 the helmet cover was made by me.

David, isn't the ENDOM the FUGLY line of pouches? either way, they are appropriately named. Good work though, did you hand stitch or use a machine? It's really cool that there are as many guys sewing stuff here in AZ that there are..and producing such awesome work..I know there are only a few but it seems like every time the work gets so much better. Keep it up, David and Nate. If either of you want to sew me and Benn a little project let me know Ill be glad to pay you guys...hell..MC would be the perfect fabric for it too..

Post by: Greg on July 17, 2005, 02:34:30 PM: FUGLYs are made by Extreme Gear Labs.

He has a new industrial, if I understand him right. And, I thought that helmet cover was made by a pro, and modified by you! That's frickin sweet, man!

And Andy, those Emdom pouches are sick. Theres no way they're "fuglyness" should be considered as giving them a bad reputation. And, the Fugly pouches, like Greg said, are Eggs line of admin pouches.

You painted the helmet, I gather? It looks cool, like you were painting it MultiCam and decided to do some other design as well, like fire. Very cool.

Post by: Ganef on July 17, 2005, 05:02:29 PM: Emdom USA: http://stores.skipjack.com/emdomusa/StoreFront.bok (http://stores.skipjack.com/emdomusa/StoreFront.bok)

No, they are not EGL, nor do either carry eithers gear.

I still have not recieved my industrial machine yet, but when I do the gears shall flow like water. I made the helmet cover from scratch, it took a lot of thinking and prepatory design work, and many minutes of staring at MM. I used my home machine to sew it and I have kept all the patterns. I forgot to mention that the lower part of the pocket is velcroed to the helmet so you can pass a goggle strap behind the pocket. I went off the Crye precision helmet cover but made some modifications.

Busta, just search ENDOM you will only get a$$.

That helmet is sick, and that rifle is lookin' good. I gotta take a good look at some of that stuff in person PDQ.

Post by: Surplus man on July 18, 2005, 01:11:25 AM: i like it all, especially the camo. but friend...would you consider investing a nice pair of boots? it might finish off the look. ;)

Post by: Raith on July 18, 2005, 01:25:37 AM: Does anybody here really assume that the given roughly $2K+ in stuff pictured, he just just probably doesn't own any boots? :P

And, the fact that out of all that awesome gear, all anyones saying is about the damn boots!

Screw the boots! Dig the gear!

I don't know what you guys are talking about, it looks like he has boots on to me! ;)

That helmet cover Ganef has is really well made. I would have believed him if he had told me it came straight from Crye.

Post by: Ganef on July 18, 2005, 07:08:46 AM: Surplus, if you read the third post I said that my welco boots were a bit dirty from work. Thanks for the new kicks Kurn!

Post by: -MAD- SARGE on July 19, 2005, 05:58:45 PM: They also have air chambers built right into the shoe, so he can walk on water. Very useful when hunting those drug lords down in those swamps. Now that is very Tactical! :lol:

Post by: Tag_Your_Dead on July 19, 2005, 07:54:23 PM: I know the helmet cover had no plans. But do you use plans? Or do you just start makin' from an idea?
Title:
Post by: Ganef on July 19, 2005, 08:59:58 PM: I took an old helmet cover and used the same basic principles it had, and with a bit of chalk on the helmet and some paper I had my own pattern. The elastic sinching idea I got from Crye Precision's MITCH cover and I just adapted the same idea to my design. As for the pockets, they were pretty easy to do without a pattern.

thanks for the comments!

Ganef made me a multicam strap for my headset. I dig it the most so far. :D

2. and HSGI is 1/10 of the "other" forum, as they call it, but it's cooler because HSGI is 100% gear company.
