Otherwise, I think people knock the TK NOW! before they try it, because it's a one hand operation that's just as fast as rubber bands. You just grab the TK and pull at any angle but straight out and you're good to go. Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Capt-Planet:

Are those plates contoured at all? They look really thin and flat. Is it comfortable when you've got the whole thing on there?

This is my current set-up, although it's still a work in progress. Just switched from using an ALICE pistol belt with M-16 mag pouches to using a BAR belt I got for a few bucks at the surplus store the other day. It can hold 8 20-round FAL mags and the position of the grommets allow me to have two things on the same place on my belt using wire hangers, which increases my real estate compared to trying to get everything to fit on the pistol belt (pouches interfered with using the wire hangers in the same spot).
Not a good pic, but I'm not going to send my film in to get developed for a bit, so I had to use my cellphone camera. I intend to use my grandma's industrial sewing machine to add some MOLLE webbing to the empty spaces on the BAR belt so I can put pistol mag pouches there since I have nowhere to put those right now. In the future I'll probably change holsters, add an IFAK (seems like a good one costs more than all of my gear combined), and maybe change to using an older canteen pouch that uses a wire hanger to free up some space on the side of the field pack. I may also see if I can find someone who can install lift-the-dot fasteners and add an extra stud to the BAR mag pouches, which will allow the use of 2 30-round AR mags or 25-round FAL mags. This set-up is meant to be used primarily with my FAL and Hi-Power. Serves me fairly well considering how tiny my budget is for such things.

Pic thread/OLD school http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v453/currahee/3LBEexp_zps67c41268.jpg Sometimes I do have a second canteen on there and no e-tool (I do have to have something on the other side, otherwise the balance gets thrown off somewhat). Interestingly, whenever I've used the e-tool it has been more for hacking at things with the edge than digging. Not sure I'd use a trowel for that, but I can definitely see the merit in the substitution. I know stuff on wire hangers can flap around a bit, but I could use the extra space and the canteens on the butt pack also flop around somewhat (whereas on a pistol belt that is not the case). Still testing things on this new setup, as it's my first real experience with a BAR belt. I had to rearrange much of my setup going from a pistol belt to that. |

I've thought of that as an alternative as well. Most of the time I've used the e-tool it is in the context of campfires, either setting up a fire pit or putting out the fire and any embers on logs and such. As I said, it's a work in progress. For now I'm not able to purchase anything more, but I've been wanting to get a decent field knife and a small axe or tomahawk, ideally something not too heavy, for carrying outdoors in general. |

I decided to go with the standard plates from AR500 for 65x2 for around 140 + or - including shipping. I'm trying to have two rigs eventually so I can hand one off to someone else If I need too (gf/ brother etc). I've only been out of school so I'm piecing together all this stuff bit by bit. When I do purchase a second pair of plates I'll go ahead and get two contoured plates to even everything out. Just dropped another 449 at Palmetto today too.  I think I'm addicted.

Just finished putting this together:
It's a horizontally mounted tourniquet holder that operates similar to my vertical version, with some added features. Added elastic loops for holding a Sharpie or chemlight: 
Added an integrated attachment system to eliminate the need for third party solutions: 
Added a small admin slip pocket for latex gloves, CASEVAC cards, and/or replacement rubber bands: 
I wanted the footprint to fit the standard 4 column section on the chest of most of the popular PCs: 
It will fit CATs, SOFT-T, and SOFT-W tourniquets. |

Just finished putting this together: It's a horizontally mounted tourniquet holder that operates similar to my vertical version, with some added features. Added elastic loops for holding a Sharpie or chemlight: https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3861/14746512349_e72562dec0_b.jpg Added an integrated attachment system to eliminate the need for third party solutions: https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5594/14746517560_e51de027da_b.jpg Added a small admin slip pocket for latex gloves, CASEVAC cards, and/or replacement rubber bands: https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5593/14932810702_f04e77865f_b.jpg I wanted the footprint to fit the standard 4 column section on the chest of most of the popular PCs: https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3855/14933172455_2cbbc4d2c1_b.jpg https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3860/14910176176_2c4bca7459_b.jpg It will fit CATs, SOFT-T, and SOFT-W tourniquets. Are you building these to sell? If so please put me in line. I know a lot if dudes looking for a horizontal TQ pouch. A friend of mine sorted one of those out a while back, http://store.legionfirearms.com/D-27-Tourniquet-Pouch-Admin-Pouch-p/d27pouch_.htm They went with a large loop over the pull tab set up. If I still needed a PC or body armor, I'd have one. Or two. Here's a better link with more pics http://kitup.military.com/2012/06/legion-firearms-delta-27-tqadmin.html |

Switched my BOK to a tru-spec double mag pouch. I really like the elastic things on the side and gets the TQ off my shoulder. It holds a Izzy, quick clot sponge and TQ. Gonna order a couple more of these for my CamelBak.

The rig itself is awesome I particularly love the StuffIt pouch. It's a very cool idea and works great for lots of stuff. The chest rigs shoulder strap kit leaves a lot to be desired though. Mostly just the fact the adjustment ends are loose and not retained. I got it to run on my APC with the SwiftClips and for that I love it.

That said it isn't even on a rifle at this point.

I'm in line for either a velocity LPAC or a mayflower apc to use it with. Just have to get the coin together (hoping a sale comes up this weekend on something). I've been considering parting with it in favor of a regular plate carrier and some pouches, but I like the modularity of being able to unsnap it and run it stand alone. Even if I have to use the kinda weird shoulder straps. I don't have it fully loaded out yet either, but I've got a decent start. Still need to pick up a med kit for one of the front pouches. Still with I would have ordered coyote though :P |

Still with I would have ordered coyote though :P I have a MF UW Gen IV, which has a much better shoulder strap system that is compatible with the D3CR so that's what I'll use if/when I run it as a chest rig. Although 95% of the time I run my PC. I too like the modularity or the SwiftClip system. Between the D3CR and MF Gen IV I have 2 different load outs that I can slap right on or I can just run slick.
