I am admittedly kinda fortunate through both having an address over there to use and knowing the owners (not that I get any free stuff by any stretch). Aye, I did what many seem to do with the carrier itself and picked it up bit by bit as they came in stock, just waiting on a 5.56 placard in MC (I love the micro rig as a chest rig, not a huge fan of it mounted on a PC) and the back panel at this point. The cumberbund I'm using is ranger green while the plate bags are Multicam... which I've actually grown to like. The only real downside to the carrier is having no convenient way to integrate carrying a 48ci tank on the back at present. I've always carried my tanks in an old (read as 'VERY old') Eagle Industries MAP pack but the lack of MOLLE on the rear plate bag removes that as an option. I'm currently stuck between waiting on the Spiritus back panels to turn up over here (and hoping the 'main' compartment fits what I'm hoping it'll fit), just running a regular small backpack/hydration carrier using shoulder straps with the carrier slick or selling it and picking up an FCPC because it seems like a very similar carrier but gives me my MAP pack back. Not in a huge rush given where we're at, but a complication I find myself thinking about far too much at present. Link to post Share on other sites

Cannonfodder 226 Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Thanks for heads up, I was planning on leaving it uncocked and unloaded anyway due to small hands in the house (as funny as it would be to teach my son to breech and clear the house, I don't think the Mrs would think the same) Shamal and Sitting Duck 2 Link to post Share on other sites

There were some cracking deals to be had on Patrol base. £85 for a Cyma CM.650A/SR47? Oh go on then...mine arrives Thursday. I even had consent from the missus. There were a few Specna Edges for £70 - £100, which was worth it just for the external parts. Nearly added one to the order, but the missus would only let me buy the one gun.
