Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

347617073_743666707758386_4582966287574386662_n.jpg


Finally got a good photo of myself again.
Very simple loadout: 4 M4 mag pouches, one double mag pouch for my ODIN speedloader, dumppouch and a generic pouch to keep my wallet/keys/phone in.
Bought a new mouthmask as well, this one is more of a tube scarf with a bit of mesh on one side, so no straps around my head, was getting a bit full there (straps for goggles (with EXFOG and top strap for it), straps for mouthmask, straps for comms headset, almost had no more place to put any of it.)

 
Pretty happy with this setup, has been several years in the making and refinement.

TM MWS, a few minor changes to make it ambi and loft 0.32g BBs. TacBelts paracord ends for the Slingster keep it quiet and the Brownells forend keeps it old school. Waiting on a carry handle as they are like Unity Mounts but prettier. 

Spiritus Mk5 for 3 rifle mags and a pistol speed loader in a Esstac Kywi (kydex trimmed to allow the feeder lips to protrude…Matron!) I can top off 3 mags from this to save carrying extra weight. IFAK with actual kit I or others might need (make use of my FREC3 qualification somehow)

FRV belt (back before they stopped actually supplying customers) with USP holster and TM USP, Direct Action dump pouch holding an M4 kywi for slick reloads and an added elastic leg strap a la TrexArms. Kydex Kustoms holder for the AlphaTex BFG.

This set up is plenty for the usual skirmish and if I am really lazy I can run just the chest rig and Mk5 pyro on the elastic strap on the side.

The coyote brown goes with most things, even the slightly faded SADF M83, and either civvy or Ranger Green gear.

This has pretty much become my go to nowadays. Thought I keeping swapping between the SPUD and a tall KYWI on the left hand side. I think the KYWI is winning that battle as it stands.

how does the kywi feel for you? i use the 556 shortys on my polymer mp5 mag and the retention was so strong i had to break my wrist to yank it out, albeit the mp5 mags are a little bit fat

They're fine, but YMMV depending on what exactly you're using. Ultimately it's a kydex (thermo plastic) insert, so if they're too tight just apply some heat and reduce the amount of tension applied to get the retention you desire.

I have a mix of KYWIs and C2R. The C2R pouch is definitely less aggressive but still keep a decent grip on gas and polymer M4 mags
