Cool. Because that 'loadout' makes sense.

Carrying or brandishing an airsoft rifle, handgun, etc. in public is a quick way to get in trouble, even when you are around people you know. They are to be treated just like real firearms as they can still hurt someone if handled improperly. I swear this same conversation comes up every few months. :angry:

Not only does it come up every few months but it seems to come up with the same people every time.

Apparently this thread is pretty much dead considering that I was the last person to post in it (almost a year ago). Maybe I can bring it back to life.

Here's my setup. I haven't ever actually used the battle belt, and I'm probably not going to. I'm thinking about putting the Serpa and dump pouch with two AR FastMags and a couple pistol mag pouches on my Blackhawk rigger's belt.

I'm using a 5.11 TacTec chest rig with six internal magazine pouches.
From left to right:
1. Condor HHR pouch (I try to stay away from Condor, but sometimes their stuff just fits into my kit better than anything else)
2. Blue Force Gear Tourniquet Now! Strap with a CAT
3. Condor Gadget Pouch
4. 5.11 double pistol magazine pouch (holds my multitool and 5.11 ATAC A1 flashlight)
5. Paraclete GP pouch with NAR IPOK and Milspec Monkey shear pouch

The Camelbak is a 3L Thermobak.

I use a 5.11 VTAC dump pouch on my belt.
If I do keep the battle belt, I'm going to eventually replace the STRIKE Serpa platform with a G-Code RTI Wheel.

Does anybody have any suggestions? I always feel like I'm missing something. Maybe it's just the fact that I don't have plates.

I might go try it out at a Carbine 1 class in a couple weeks.

Use cardboard or buy some AR500, cheap ass but they serve the purpose.

Maybe a pistol with more than one mag to use the pistol pouches
