All your gear looks great dudes but I've got something a little unique coming in the mail that I can't wait to show off.. Echelon, are those black things mini deploy-able flotation things on the back of your rig? Or maybe I'm just seeing (I'm a counterstrike poseur!) pouches? Correct. It is a TFSS system. www.tacfloat.com/products/tfss_5326.html

So Echelon, I must ask whether those are real or replica? If they're replica where did you get them? I'm not prepared to pay the prices for the real ones. Awesome rig, just because of those. Coyote Brown I assume? And for the sake of realism, I would move those to your belt. A real MBSS' straps are elastic, and I'm not quite sure having those there would be safe or effective.

And also this Pic Which I don't feel like resizing, where they wear them on their vest straps. The reason I don't move them to my belt is because where they are now is directly under my armpits. Where they are, they are actually very secure with a little tinkering. Unless I hardcore tape them or something, they don't really stay in the same position on my belt. Making a simple mod to the replica's makes them fully functional. Mine are actually Pantac, and I bought them....I forget. Maybe RedWolf? I think there are a couple of HK dealers that sell them for around 40-60$$ As for my vest, yeah its CB, but Pantac as well. Some people get it confused.

Possibly, they look to be SEALs. OD MBSS likely means that's a pre 2005 picture, I'd say even earlier than that likely.
Cool to hear that they make replicas, I'll have to pick a pair up now.

The Fireside Nut Brown is alright, but the Red Lager is FAR superior, IMO.

Great rig Dahm, I have pretty much the same one but a cheapo knock off version. Like you said it's super small but carries a ton of stuff because every inch is covered in MOLLE loops.
Street, yeah It's super comfy because it's so low profile. I love mine. Sadly mine doesn't look as good as Dahm's.

Agreed, looks great. Almost make me want to get one. Is it comfortable? Its extremely comfortable. I love it way more than a CIRAS and whatnot because its so much smaller. I would recommend one to anyone. I'll have to try Red Lager. I know I really like Sam Adam's Boston Lager, so Red Lager may even be superior to F.B.N.A. Sugg - I didn't know you had the same rig. Post it up? Any HPC is bound to look tits.

I was wearing it at Black Anvil, it came in what was claimed to be OD but it was really a much lighter green.. So I painted it as close to RG as I could. It was cheap thankfully. s194.photobucket.com/albums/z181/WolkaBoy75/Anvil/?action=view¤t=DSC_0548.jpgThat's the only pic I have right now of it I'm far right. Yours looks way better tho. I'm going to use it for my Army style kit just cause it looks really decent with ACU. Like I said earlier I've got something good for my Marine kit coming. I will post both of them up at once when I get it.

Ah okay, I think I remember now. Well regardless who's looks better, you're will probably be pretty kick ass too when finish the Army kit.
What rig are you using for the Marine kit?
