The Longhouse is a place where civilians, military, and law enforcement can all share ideas, knowledge, and TTPs regarding overall preparedness for the civilian.
Great Channel, just found you, subscribed. Viewpoint from a 35yr Army Spec Ops combat vet (Iraq/Afghan, Other) Panama, Jungle School. The Point of the Split Rig style (Velocity Jungle, Nixieworks) is primarily for Foot Jungle Patrolling long or short and Sniper Ops where will be in prone. The point is that chest rigs or anything covering chest and back will overheat you almost immediately in the jungle, and you CANNOT carry enough water to compensate for the amount of sweating. This is basically a modern Korea, Vietnam era uaed thru 70's 80's 90's LBE. For Snipers the ability to unbuckle and push the rig to left and right is obvious to go as prone as possible. While a Chest Rig CAN be worn, you'd have to carry more weight in water than Ammo. Again this would not be a primary choice for missions where your riding Heloing up to Objective to assault /raid on compounds, structures or vehicle ops. Its for longer Foot Patrolling in Hot Humid Environments where your not getting resupplied for awhile, if at all. So also like a SHTF grid down homestead community defense scenario. Like someone else mentioned, the GWOT days of in and out with 4 mags and a snickers bar are over then or in the Pacific island hopping. (If driving, you will obviously have to remove it. So if you are kitting out for Alaska, Canada, Redoubt it's probably not a priority purchase. If in Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama central/south America, maybe more so.

8:44 If you are limited to owning only one gun, then by all means, put a light on it. Weapon mounted lights are great for law enforcement/military or home defense, where searching in the dark, for threats, is a possibility. They also provide a free hand. For personal defense/EDC, they're not necessary. In a personal defense situation, you see your threat, and then you draw. You are sure of your target. You're not looking for trouble with your light. Don't use your weapon mounted light as a traditional flashing.

I found smaller built pistols to have bad recoil, capacity limitations, etc. For many, this is a lot of pistol. For me, i want to give myself the greatest advantage over any potential adversaries. A pistol to a civilian is what a rifle is to an infantryman. I wanted my G34 to be and act as my primary. (Similar concept to SOCOM wanting the MK23).

When talking about printing in concealed carry the grip is usually the the problem. When running battle rattle the grip is usually what gets caught up on things. This is why I prefer the G19 length grip with a G17 length slide.They don't make that. So, you have to do what I did and make a G17s(short), by chopping the grip length. This gives you the longer sight radius which helps to more accurately align the sights, and higher muzzle velocity (MV). MV is about 70 feet per second faster than a G43 and 40fps than G19. Some guys like running the longer lights because the light face acts as a standoff and prevents the slide from going out of battery when pressed up against a threat.
@thelonghousepreparednessАй бұрын
Yeah, I forgot to mention the last part. I think if you can comfortably shoot a 19 you should get one. I think that the 19 length is overall a better option for concealing and duty use, but I think that the 17 length is way more comfortable and handles better

Belt kits are great for warm, humid conditions, such as jungles. Part of the reason why the Brits still has the PLCE is because jungle fighting is still part of their basic training.

these frames were deigned to be worn over an IOTV with plates in them. In my experience, these things SUCK when you have to take them long distances. I like the idea of the medium ruck, but the frame makes it hard to wear long term, the waist belt makes it impossible to wear with a gun belt, and to fully maximize the pack you need to add sustainment pouches to the sides which will widen the profile but make the bag much more functional.

I’d get yourself a 1/2”x6” ferro rod and just use the spine of your knife, rest that on your foot so the rod doesn’t move and you can get more accurate spark throws. Plus the longer ferro rod will let you get more sparks per pull. At 6” it’s still pretty small that can go in just about any location on your kit.

I think people tend to miss the point of the LFR. The LFR is not intended to be an "assault" beltkit. I would classify something like the VS Jungle Rig as an "assault" belt kit. The LFR is interesting because its tailored specifically towards (what i would call) civilian activities. Its not for taking and holding ground, HS,LD raids, or multi-day firefights. Its meant to optimize the extended low-profile, on-foot mobility of small groups of people who don't have robust logistical, transportation, or support elements in place during a shtf/wrol situation. Something like "Hey, jim bob just called/radioed -- he saw some suspicious activity on his farm. Hopefully its nothing, but it could also be something, so im going to grab my LFR with 2-3 days worth of sustainment supplies and enough ammo to deal with any potential cattle rustlers/bandits, and walk/bike/ride/drive on over to help him and his son secure their property. Ideally im back before nightfall, but if im not ill be able to sustain myself for a realistic length of time."

The British Army already solved this with their PLCE system which is a better LBE rig that provides padded lumbar support and pouches that don't bounce when you run.

The British PLCE is an excellent design; the Mayflower/Velocity systems jungle rig can be setup like the PLCE, and has advantages in modularity/materials/weight/etc., and it does not absorb water. You determine the value. The biggest issue with the American M1956 gear (LBE) is the buttpack integration with ALICE ruck. The LBE works well with the P6x series Vietnam jungle rucks that wrap around the buttpack.
@CDNR7112 ай бұрын
The Brit’s are the masters of belt kit and tabbing. I wore a set of OD PLCE while I was in the CF, it was like wearing a custom fitted set of webbing, which was instantly readjustable and actually comfortable while rucking. They make a platform like place for the bergen to rest on vs the American love of wearing a buttpack which forces the ruck into an extremely weird angle. Thus, my recommendation is that we are now post Afghanistan and most likely to get into a ground war with the Motherland. Hence fight as you train, train as you fight. Don’t be prepared for the parade ground.
