I noticed something on my FLC. The PALS stitching on the breasts of the vest seems...fragile. If you take the edge of a PALS strip and try to pull it away from the mesh of the vest, the thread stitching will actually break at the very ends and start to separate. This has the SDS label on the inside, but it was bought off Amazon, are the knock-offs knocking off the mfg label too now? Or does this happen with all FLC's?

Question: I have a new flc and it is well built, stiff and noisy. I would like to set one up for night hunting so I can have calls, ir lights, magnifier etc all together.
Do well used ones soften up and get quieter? |

If you are concerned about this sort of thing, the Army published a list of detergents that do not contain fabric brighteners. This may be an issue as, for example, dear have a considerable amount of their visual spectrum in the UV range. Neither of my FLCs have this problem, though. |

Allows you to mount a larger pouch- say a triple mag pouch- across the front (and thus over the zipper, disallowing the zipper's use) while still allowing it to be donned and doffed. Personally, I think a three mag pouch on on the support side and a single on the other side is a comfortable arrangement. |

So I was reading up on the Army getting new uniforms. It said they were looking for a company to come up with a way to dye the old ACUs Coyote Brown to save on getting rid of all them. Do you think the process will transfer over to FLCs? I've got a DCU one completed, but the ACU ones are all over the place and pretty cheap. Wouldn't mind picking up a couple to have just because. If I can dye them a legit Coyote Brown, that'd be pretty cool.
If nothing else, I could probably just pick one up and do some RIT dye experimentation like many of you have. |

I've got horribly variable results with RIT dyes.

I looped it under the top row of PALS and laced it back up through a 1" slide to secure. Later on I sewed a length of webbing horizontally across the shoulders to help keep everything in place.

Heres a dumb question for those that know - and yes i do have a FLC that i could try this on, but i dont wanna undo all the shit on it just to see, plus im at work lol
Does the belt portion come all the way off? like could you wear just the belt itself? im thinking free dcu warbelt! i know it has the big ol buckle on the front, but if it does come out, i may pick up another flc for cheap just for this reason! |

When the belt is reversed for chest-rig wear, and commonly found quick-fit SR buckles attached, it functions much like any other modern chest rig. I came to this conclusion after coming back from OEF, where my unit's SOP was somewhat unmonitored as far as what gear we could wear, and upon redeploying we were told to adhere to the FLC as the standard. Frankly, I think the FLC is outdated and sub-par; so I made it work for me. Your guys' mileage may vary, but it served me well in garrison. I scavenged the females buckles left over from my SPCS (bleh) and affixed them to the un-stiffened portions of the MOLLE mounting straps on my issue IFAK and 3-mag shingle, respectively. I looped some spare green nylon webbing through some MOLLE webbing on the front-shoulder part of the issued IBA and used it to hang the male buckles. Pic related, I'm on the right. <a href="http://s28.photobucket.com/user/mikehotel10/media/923557_10200529674195829_1444295806_n_zps3d20097f.jpg.html" target="_blank">http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c234/mikehotel10/923557_10200529674195829_1444295806_n_zps3d20097f.jpg</a> View Quote Without pix, some folks might have a hard time understanding your mods to the FLC. I understand that you made lemonade from a lemon, and all that. I also agree, as does the Mil, that the FLC is passé, but some folks can benefit from inexpensive milsurp gear in their quest for their personal best rig. The FLC does have the advantage of being a grab and go rig for some folks. I have my Shotgun and some other rigs set up on FLCs, but I have transitioned to other rigs for serious social purposes, because the ancillary rigs interface better with body armor. All this said, the FLC is very useful, and very inexpensive. Most importantly, never forget that your gear is a distant second to your skills. NEVER forget that. |

View Quote I guess that depends on your personal size. If you are really small, it might be iffy, but if you are a bigger fellar, like myself, I think you will find that the FLC has a LOT of adjustment. As far as being enough to ride higher than your kidney belt, I would say just get one and give it a try. they are really cheap, so on the off chance that it doesnt work, you wont be out much. FWIW, Im about 6'2 and about 270 lbs, and i can adjust mine enough to clear my warbelt. |

Not sure if I should necro, because I'm looking for a solid black or tan SDS/BAE FLC that's sold new for about the same price as the DCU ($12.58), not >$50. Google not being my friend for this.

I recently got a coyote FLC in error (ordered a mag pouch on amazon...got a FLC...contacted amazon support and paid the difference). The FLC had no tags at all. No indication of who made it. The materials all seemed right and there was no wear on the fabric, but the stitching was horrible. I must have spent close to five hours clipping loose threads and melting ends. I'm not sure if it was a factory second or a chinese knockoff, but for the $17 I spent I'd say it was worth the money. |
