Eagle Industries makes something in MARPAT?
Agreed on the pattern on the vest. Rigs in the same color as your camo always look akward no matter what you do. (Save for MC)

Both K_MAN. The two MARPAT pouches on the back don't look too bad but it's hard to tell. The front pouches + vest both look awful.
JD, Eagle made some MARPAT pouches for the ILBE test trials. I've seen very very few Eagle items in it around, and I really wish I had bought them. Most of the stuff you see is Paraclete in MARPAT, rarely Eagle.

No, I meant that my MARPAT was from Eagle, and the vest almost matches my MARPAT perfect, its probably my crappy camera. And yes the pouches are ugly I know. Do you want to see a side by side view?

Maverick that is amazing I wish I setup like that! How do you like those gloves? I was looking at those or the Nitro Kevlar carbontek from USCav.

Why in tyhe world are your Magpuls on there like that?! They're 90 degrees the wrong way. the loop should go go from one side to the other, not front to back.
Otherwise, looks like you have what works for you.

Maj. Scott, some people (including myself) find it easier to pull a mag out from the mag pouch when it is like that. If you read the MAGPUL manual it actual suggests that as an alternative way of putting them on. Its not wrong, they were meant to be like that, just like they were meant to be the regular way.
Mav, great set-up. I'd replace the two AK mag pouches with an M60 pouch, but thats just me.

Sweet lookin setup man. Im also interested in how those gloves hold up. I have the new Blackhawk Hard Nuckle SOLAGs and it looks like these are modeled off them. Just wondering if I should have spent the money. Hind sight is always 20/20.

Well I just got the gloves like a week ago, so I havent even had time to use them in a game From just wearing them they seem to be of very good quality and should hold up fine, happy with the $35 I spent so far. And for the AK pouch, I have that there from when I ran my belt rig, havent decided what I want to put there yet. Right now it holds a spare couple mags, killrag, and my mk23 if I carry it. I like the idea of the m60 pouch though, may do that. And the magpuls came that way on the mags I bought. I didnt even notice they were sideways until someone mentioned it in my thread First time I have ever had any. Thanks for the positives though, if you want to see the rest of the load its in my gallery thread.

*sigh* Here, the definitive authority on how to use your magpuls: www.magpul-pts.com/pdfs/magpul5a_manual.pdfSee pages 14 and 15. Mav, that wasn't meant for you, but for everyone still amazed at sideways magpuls, I have nothing else to say. It's the exact same way I run mine, makes them more like a Ranger plate IMO.

Word to the wise though, once you leave them attached like that for a long time, they are loose like sleeve of wizard when you go to put them on another mag the "Normal" way.

Only thing I'd do, Knife, is move the MBITR around front and slide those mags over towards your weak side a bit.

That's kick ass Knife. I look forward to fondling that at the Factory or whenever.
