I use a Condor or Red Rock buttpack for my Get Home Bag that I carry in my truck. Maps, compass, mini SAS survival manual, rain poncho, 3 days E-rats, first aid, hygiene, change of underclothes, 75' 1/4" rope, etc on a belt or shoulder strap.
My BOB is a modified (of course, lol) Red Rock molle pack that opens like a medical pack. Unfortunately I don't see it offered on the website anymore.

So where's all the 7.62x39 Hollow Points? They're not showing up at the local dealers and have been noticeably absent from the last 3-4 gun shows I've been to. I'm not terribly worried as I have a couple hundred rounds, but just starting to wonder if I should invest in one of those jigs for making my own out of FMJs.
Btw, anyone use a hollow point jig?

While I like bot Chuck and Vlad, honorary belts, diplomas, degrees, etc, mean exactly squat. Like the Noble Peace Prize, if Obama gets one, anybody can get one.

Here's a link to a pic here on the forums.

I made one for mine by bending a piece of aluminum and bolting it to the stock. It was only about 3 or 4" long but mounted so that everything functions when folded. I also wrapped it in several layers of black athletic tape. I don't have pics on my phone but will try to post one when I can.

Good to see you're ok. And of course we're sending aid, you all are damn near a state and a lot more deserving than many countries we send aid to. Good luck and gods bless.

I've gone thru several VFGs and found the AFG more comfortable and less in the way on both my bullpup builds.
-
Haven't been to that one. Hows it compare to Dayton and Sharonville?
-
I'll do that Tom. Plannning to do the Sharonville show again. The Dayton show is a possibility.
-
Thanks. Have ya done anything new lately? Bullpup wise.

Sounds like a bad batch of feed lip springs. Return them and don't worry about it. AGP seems to be good for it. I have 6 AGPs and never had an issue.

Man if I didn't have plans that require the 18" barrel on my S12 bullpup. I'd love to bullpup something like that. Nice.

Nice job and nice stove too.
I'd love to put a box stove in the basement. Doesn't have to be pretty, just hold 6-8hrs worth of wood. I ran a little Jotul in my old place first 4yrs as a supplement to the fuel oil. Last 2yrs the oil went out and the landlord put in propane. The Jotul became primary. It only held 4hrs worth of wood but I didn't sleep much back then anyway. It would keep most of the house at about 58° most of the time and the electric would kick on if it ran low or got too cold. It's how I taught my teenage daughter to wear layers of clothes, lol. Unfortunately, my woman today has an extreme fear of fire. So its an outside furnace or nothing. :-(c

Nice job. Let us know how the elk hunt goes. I understand the "older I get", but 3/4 of the hunt for me is just getting the hel out and away. Though as Ronin says, "Not so easy here in OH". Fortunately, shoeing horses, I get around alot and some of my clients let me hunt their places. Still, its nothing like hunting deer, javalina and elk in Arizona used to be. :-(c

I enjoy the show. John is kinda who I wanted to be when I was much younger. Go figure, my O Sensei was "retired" CIA, lol. I've missed the last couple episodes as we typically get side tracked while watching something else. Kinda why I never got beyond Military Police towards being CIA, got sidetracked. No, no ADD here, lol.
Love the Belgian Malinoise (sp).

Congrats and good luck. I had some buds try talking me into Corrections years ago, already had MP and Deputy experience. At the time I had some pretty bad anger issues and just wanted to leave be and be left alone. So didn't go that way. You've gotten some good advice here. "Heed this and it shall serve you well."
Again good luck and stay safe.

That depends on what's going on and at what point in the scenario. For short term/first stage SHTF, I'll be running my EDC(2nd pic below, add a 4" liner lock blade).
As things progress, I'll eventually run my "Battle Belt"(1st pic) around the house/camp. The Rothco padded molle belt seems bulky but snugs down quite comfy. It's set up to run mostly pistol but have space for a couple of rifle or shotgun mags as well.
The SAW gunners pouch is my gas mask. My AO has a gas pipeline nearby as well as a couple R&R tracks. And my daughters is even worse. Chem spills/fires suck.
I have dump pouches on every tier of my system as I don't train to drop my mags. No longer being Mil/LE, I don't have taxpayer funded resupply so I figure what I got is all I get.
The little pouch is typical GI bandage and first aid. And I have a couple of double strap drop leg panels that quick attach, if needed.

COOL WORLD! I'm now up to a four tier system, lol. I'll start a thread when I get my pics together.

I just picked up a Condor Molle Chest rig for my S12 but I'm using modified triple mag(AR/AK, double mag for S12s), triple pouches on it. The ones with the flaps. It was $25 at out local tac shop. I could run my RPK off it allowing me to carry up to nine 30rnders AND nine 40rnd mags and a drum in the drop pouch. I found you can get a dump pouch and shotshell pouch in between the two triple mag pouches if you slide the mag pouches one slot over, looping the outer molle strap over the quick release attachment strap.
They had one with the mag slots built in for about $35, but I don't know how well the 30s would fit. Pretty snug I would think as I have a double taco mag pouch and the AK 30s fit REAL snug and just a bit tall.
Good luck and let us know what you go with. Love seeing others set ups.
Oh, heres a pic of mine with the S12 mags.
-
Interesting. I think I can make that. Thanks for the link.
-
Very nice. What break is that and how do you like it?
-
Ah, you beat me back. I don't remember seeing her at your booth. Hmm, seems all the pretty girls go the day I don't, lol. Oh and Happy BDay!
-
Nice build (s). I may have to do something similar for my daughter. She's always enjoyed long range shooting and it would help keep her out of harms way once she gets out of the LE Academy.

Thanks for all the info. I agree that it's likely a regional thing. As I'm not yet set up for reloading, the surplus ammo is still my best alternative thus far. And I do recycle the steel casings. Around here the domestic brass runs about $1+/rnd. The steel surplus runs about $.25+/rnd. I have a good variety of everything so am not hurting. Maybe next year I can get the reloading started.
Again thanks.
