Well, I may go ahead and pick up the eagle rhodesian, and have stonewolf make me a back for it like this:

And that should do the job, or maybe I will Commision some custom work, or throw my Issak in the washer and see how it scomes out, LOL.

Being picky is a hard life.


Thanx Lightning_Man I just bought one and drop another 120 bux on top of that with them!
 but they do have good prices, I decided to redo my rig, Damn 500 bux and climbing just in one setup,  :oops:  Now for some plates :twisted:

Try reading the post by the author, Garbage boy. Mark was asking what FEATURES you want in a piece of gear, not about what is on your "dream LBE" which to most, is an oxymoron. :lol:

I gotta say, Bustas winning the fight. I own an LBE and a mod (Busta, you saw it saturday, did you like it? I love it :)) and the only way to go with good gear is modular.. LBE is just.. if you can't afford modular.

Lets not get into a debate, stick to topic though.. I still stick with my last post.

Dudes...it's a farking game.

I suppose if you are a re-enactor or being judged in the  "Miss Most-Authentic-Military-Costume" contest, it might matter.

hey im sorry for every one whos had trouble with thier lbe. ive used it for 2 years and its served me perfectly.

as for features in a piece of gear, it should be velcroless (on any thing vest, pouches, packs, etc.) buttons and elastic are quiet. pulling a grenade from a velcro pouch in a infiltration situation surrounded by enemy is like asking to be shot.

Glad to hear that Surplus man.  I have had my current modular set-up now for about a year now and it has served me perfectly.  So far its exactly what I want from my gear.

I have spent alot of time and money searching for the right rig.

After testing out my Eagle MLCS Rhodesian Chest Rig last weekend, I think I've found it!  It could be lighter (and have cost less, but it's ONLY MONEY), and have a few features that aren't a part of it - but it works great and carries all of my sh*t!  The BattleLab pouches are great also.

If LC2 gear works for you, SurplusBoy, that's great!  You are very lucky to be satisfied by that inexpensive gear.  I wish a 60 buck LBE setup would satisfy my gear needs (it would sure satisfy my wallet!).:(
