Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

[EDcase]

Couple of pics of myself from the Stirling game this weekend at Catterick

Looks hot - as in sweaty ?

This is my planned loadout for Sunday. 
 

Nice and simple, Arktis chest rig with my magazines, Safariland for the Glock. Will be the first run out of my NGRS Mk18 too!

Only things I might add are some belt mounted pistol pouches and an LBX sling if it arrives in time. 

Many people realise that lighter is better. Especially with this kind of weather ?

Anoyingly its not the gear on my body that gets me hot, its all the PPE we effectively have to wear on our heads thats the real baker.

I’ve gone full circle, simple kit —> all the kit —> simple kit!

No messing about, just a rifle, magazines and some bangs! Cheap(ish) and cheerful!

tbh it wasnt too bad - it was quite overcast most of the weekend until Sunday where it did get rather warm

Just some general tips for anyone with the same issues that I've gone with over the years (because I get exactly what you mean):

-If going for a cap, get one that's mostly mesh (Anything that looks like the Arc'teryx BAC).

-Look for an ear pro headband with spacer mesh (A&A Tac make some, again just an example for visual reference).

-Also for ear pro, Noisefighters heatsyncs (don't know any equivalent product unfortunately).

-Fan goggles help just that teeny tiny little bit or mesh eye pro if that's your preference.

-The more of the lower face pro is metal mesh then, obviously, the better.  I know balaclavas are even more the rage right now than ever before but they retain a lot of heat and sweat.

Pretty sure a few people here have done DIY airflow for helmets.

A perfectly cromulent solution.  I wear a belt and braces, but that's mostly just to hang an MP5K of.  It's amazing how many mags you can stuff into the pockets of surplus shirts and trousers.

Googles "cromulent"

One of the many pointless words in the world!

Wow, very nice collection there. What make is the Uzi? Dont see too many of those around.

Managed to grab myself an MTP jacket at the carboot so when I'm using the M1A1 Thompson I just throw some of my m4 mags in the many pockets ready to speedily fill my single Thompson mag ?

32 Battalion chest rig, used in Angola. Nylon DPM and thic boi shoulder pads. Much more comfy than the standard pat83.

Most examples are black and sticky from the weatherproofing, got lucky with this one.

Pencott Wildwood and MTW setup works well.

I got some WW bits coming to finish the loadout.View attachment 78837View attachment 78841View attachment 78836View attachment 78838View attachment 78839View attachment 78840

Definitely made a top camo choice for your site there mate, certainly in this season.  I like to see it, nice one.

@GothicGhost stop giving away the trade secrets! Keep everyone wearing MTP so they’re easier to shoot ?

My favourite is people who wear black/MC black. They seem to think it makes them invisible

I try stay away from MTP as so many wear it.

I last loadout before getting some pencott camo was mostly grey and black and I I did know I would stand out but after a while you just get seen so easy and that half the battle lol they can't shoot what they can't see.

This was me at High Wycombe last weekend, I’m liking the multicam tropic camouflage mix. Picked up some multicam boots (from tankfest) and now have a SPC in tropic multicam.

The larger cutout around the M9 is for the Auto-9 to fit.
