This is not a good PC .. it’s to big there’s a flap in the front that doesn’t allow for proper mag draws .. there are so many better options out there .. but no the army has to spend 2K for shit vest it blows my mind
@@shawconceptsllc.8797 Oh just put it on a table outside of camera shot like people have done since the advent of Television. Again, this is something I've noticed specifically with gear guys like it's some weird "be relatable" angle or something. People used to just give a damn more years ago.
Will there be Ambidextrous version of the outer belt for all of us who like to run Lara Croft style double shoulder holsters for our pistols and need canted pistol mags on both hips?
a little disappointed it doesn't curve like the BFG grid belt. I hate straight belts, very uncomfortable. idk why everyone keeps making them, do yall not get back pain from wearing your belt all day?
Msv user here, no soft armor the “chicken vest” (slick inner carrier) is out “soft armor” and we are not allowed to take it out, nor are we allowed to take off ANY of the buckles, which this “carrier” is worse than the gen 4 iotv imo. Not to mention cif/rfi civilians not letting you get a correct size ever. (had to fight to get a small long instead of a medium, need a small short) However the WORST parts of the msv are the shoulder straps themselves as most soldiers aren’t able to actually adjust them enough to ensure a close fit, and have to adjust the cumber-bun making breathing harder and usually still resulting in your kit moving a lot when you run, and the 2nd worst being the inconsistency of side plate sizes with some being double the size of others.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you would set up kit for a SAW gunner. I know the M249 is mostly phased out in the USMC, but us 11Bs still need to worry about that.
If it's not a certified riggers belt, what is the d-ring for? Why not use just a regular ProStyle buckle? What force will this version of the inner belt withstand?
Aaaaaand right-handed mediums are out of stock. Dang. Also I can't help noticing it's an awful lot more expensive than, say, a Blue Alpha belt, why is that?
Small to medium sized companies have larger material costs, labor expense, these companies buy expensive composite materials and cut sew contract manufacturing, all inside USA. Small companies have to pay way more for materials than larger more internally vertically integrated companies do. (vertical integration: companies control their entire supply and manufacture processing)
Blue Alpha makes great stuff and the V2 costs what it costs because we built this belt unlikely any others and prioritized having a feature rich product. All of that demands more labor hours (a company's largest expense) and more advanced expensive materials.
