Picked up a smaller chest rig earlier and I think I'm pretty happy with it, I found my plate carrier obstructed my shouldering the weapon so this is ideal.  Going for a sort of not jeans and plaid shirt PMC look, next step grow a big beard right?

Comms headset: earmor

 

That's a great looking kit. I was wondering about your headset as i've also been looking for one that attaches to the rear mounts of my helmet and you happen to have exactly what I want. Personally, I don't need it for comms, more for aesthetics and the active hearing protection. Where'd you get it from? What's the sound quality like?

Those are OpsCore AMP Arms, or a clone of them. They're a fantastic bit of kit and IMO both hold earpro a bit more evenly on the head and are easier to swivel off the head than the two-prong wire ones that attach to the top rail. Plus they allow you to use your upper rails for whatever.

Gotcha. I'll wait for @TipsyDiver to reply as I want to know their exact headset setup so I can get a gauge on quality. It looks like a set of Earmor M32 but i'm not totally sure.

My old RG PC, just been replaced.  Real mix of custom parts and commercial, worked great though, gonna miss it when it goes.

Thanks, it was very!

 

Had to swap out undergarments at lunch despite the low temps. Gorka must be the least breathable suit out there!

Finally got the team together for a photo 

[TipsyDiver]

It's earmor mount and earmor headset. I got it all from Poland. From Specshop.pl

 

 

Sorry I am not very proficient with forums, no idea how to quote what I am responding to ?

You can do so by hitting the little "quote" button under a post. Or, for a multiquote hit the little "+" sign next to the "quote" button.

I took delivery of a Lanbaosi tactical long sleeve shirtas a base layer and got a Union Jack patch for the right upper arm pocket.

 

 

I added a OneTigris FYR Tactical Vest along with a Viper double magazine pouch plus a Viper double pistol magazine pouch.

 

 

I fed through a single point rifle strap.

If I may, couple of tips that take seconds but will make it sit/look way better.  The main thing is, if you haven't already, clip your gun in and test that sling, like hover the muzzle just above the bed and give it a serious yank to check the security, seen more than a few gats suddenly drop when airsoft single point slings with a 1" buckle haven't been up to the task.  If it fails or feels borderline you'll be better off just relying on the carrying method god/evolution gave you vs thinking the sling has got it when it doesn't.

 

Some cheap foam cut to fit inside the plate bags will add basically no weight and won't hinder but again, the rig will probably 'sit' better and it'll certainly look a lot better; more like the look folks envision in their heads anyway I believe.  Obviously you'll have adjusted the cummerbund for your waist, but most people generally leave the shoulder straps too long.  It's only airsoft, as I've said before it's not the end of the world, but generally the top of the front plate want's to sit where your collar bones meet in the middle.  Some things to consider anyway.

Agreed with the above,

You may find the sling when loaded, pulls down and the rear of it will be on your neck, I’ve seen players use a Carabiner through the “drag handle” on the back and through the sling to stop that happening. I’m sure a couple of decent cable ties would do the same.

 

I tried cutting up a Yoga mat for simulation plates, was ok , but again too flexible 

so I managed to “procure” a couple of swimming floats

A little 1/4” trim to help shape and they make my PC look like it has proper plates in it ?

Setup my C2R Chameleon the other week, every pouch a different brand and all made years apart from the next one ? ha

Big advocate of these arms Vs. the metal pronged ones, no matter how much in bent the metal prongs they never sat right enough. Sourced mine via AliExpress for less than £30

My patches that aren't in patch books, as of last month.  Just about to fill the 3 doors so figured it was time to take a picture.

 

[C-Diddy]

Couple from last weekend's run out for the lad's birthday. He's sporting his new MARPAT rig, and Specna Arms Edge (very impressed for a sub-£200 gun). I'm running a tigerstripe/MCB combo with the MWS. 

 

    

 

[Hellfish]

My kit will be considered fairly generic but is comfortable and functional 

[Asomodai]

I am really not that chunky... It's just a loose fitting bit of Parachute DNC!
