Gunny, I thought you were trying to reduce the amount of stuff you carry... Least I know who to ask for spare magazines at Northern Light... Oh, the funny thing is that I did reduce the amount of stuff I carried.... The heaviest being a 3 lbs HPA tank. Y'all need to learn how to aim. ;D Actually, I don't have to reload my magazines as often as everyone else and I don't have to carry spare ammo or speed loaders on my body. Worked perfectly for Northern Light last year. I only had to reload my magazines once over the whole weekend..... And I can attack/defend and stay on the field a lot longer as a result because I have enough magazines to last me for more enduring fire fights. And I can always loan out mags (which I have before) to our fellow comrades when they run out of ammo... So yup, Gimp just stay close to me... LMAO.

No real impression in mind. Just doing my own thing.

Looks like a mayflower LPAAC.

Is that a 6142B or C?

That looks like the b to me. I had the c and on my mayflower apc which also had six rows of webbing the c hung off the bottom by two rows. The weird thing is that there was way more than enough room for the bladder and I'm surr I could have gone down one size on the pouch.

Trying to decide between the A or B for my slick, was leaning toward the B but that just seems huge.

This is the C on the back of my Mayflower APC: I have since moved it up a row of MOLLE so it's sitting 2 inches higher, but it still hangs off a couple inches. If I have time tonight, I can get you a picture of what it looks like currently.

Yeah, that's exactly how mine was. Same carrier and hydro pouch. The thing I noticed, and that I mentioned in my above post, is that there was way too much room. The 6142C is the 50oz size, but there was easily enough room in there for a 75oz. I would say buy the bladder and pouch separately so you can actually make use of all the space. If you get the 6142a size up the bladder to the 33oz one, and if you get the 6142B then size up to the 50oz bladder so you don't have a ton of wasted space. I think the 6142B should fit fine on your slick without hanging off as long as it is sized for medium plates. On a side note, I didn't really care much for the insulated LBT pouches. The hose rubbed on mine and the silvery insulation started coming off right away, plus I don't really see the point of an insulated pouch when there is plenty of room at the top for air to come in.

I went with a B, I figure I would hate the smaller volume for the larger ops. Personally, I wanted something slim and streamline, this fits the bill.

Zander, the one on my LPAAC is a B. Sits flush on my rig. (APC W/ Balcs cut)

Now that my vest is almost done, I think I could contribute a little bit. I'm switching the utility pouch with a IFAK and some other bits of gear. I'm' also going to run nine mags for my ak-47 on this when I get the money. Any ideas/tips would be nice.

Looking good there Bubba. What brand is it if you don't mind sharing?
