HSGI Warlord V2 in Coyote Brown. I had to wait about a week and a half for them to make it for m,e, but by God was it worth it. This thing has so many neat little features its unreal. It'll also hold twelve standard 5.56 mags in a stacked configuration. It came with four buckle closure pistol mag pouches. The side pockets will hold a nalgene bottle each. The front flips down and is basically one huge admin/map pouch. Its extremel]y comfortable and in time for Fulda. Knife is a Blackhawk! Kalista 2. :o

Shoulda bought a Pantac RRV before the prices went up, Villid. to get a full set like the one I have, you have to pay as much as I did for the CIRAS I bought, and you don't get pouches with the RRV :(

Its honestly overkill/overbuilt for airsoft, and i've had lots of Pantac in the past and its been stellar for what it is. Nothing i do in the airsoft field will ever truly test this rigs capabilities, but i can pull my midcaps out and put real steel mags in and not have to think twice, and I like that. (zombies anyone?) Are they making Pantac out of 1000d now or is it 600d still? If the prices went up hopefully the materials did as a result.

Thats great. 1000d is tough as a coffin nail. What are the RRV's going for now? I'd like to have a ranger green rig and i've had good luck with Eagle Industrie's RRV's in the past. One thing I've notice about Pantac gear, and it may have just been me, but it's all smaller than the real deal counterparts. My Pantac Wasatch was smaller than my HSGI Wasatch was. Has this been everyone else's experiences as well?

I've noticed some real gear (Eagle, HSGI, and others) moving back down to 500d and 600d due to weight and various other properties. The stitching is FAR more important than the material.

Oh i totally agree, triple stitched 600d will be much stronger than single stitched 1000d. Now double stitched 1000d, thats right up my alley.

I just can't see buying tac gear that was made for airsoft and not surplus stuff.....
I do not always accidentally, but when I do, I accidentally the whole thing.

Sorry my reply was supposed to be to Villid.

And Pantac has been made with 1000D for at least 2-2 1/2 years now... but the cost of EVERYTHING seems to be going up... RRV stuff went up $10 at least, and CIRAS's went up some $40 within the last 8 months.
