Originally Posted By Hakim_Thumb: Edit: sorry I write so much, i ramble and overexplain myself constantly. Just ask whoever has to read my reports... It's rough to get irons mounted, because that DBAL-D2 overarches so much that i'd have to move it back really far, and that looks stupid. The backup is the DBAL. BUIS would be a backup to the backup, so I removed them. I keep considering adding them back, or buying a very thin set, or doing something to make a set work, but it is just so rough with the D2. I am considering top-mounting it with a LEAF sight, but then I lose the location of my OKW, and I really like using the clicky cap. The illuminator housing is just soooo stupidly bulky that nothing really works well near it. I mean, I guess having BUIS midway down the handguard would make it similar to an AK sight radius, so it isn't like it wont work, it'll just look stupid. I know you're nitpicking, but so am I, and it would be nice to have. I'm considering dropping the 3-1 for the Trijicon 1-8 FFP i had on it before, because i really liked that setup. As for the QuikClot questions, it is used pretty commonly to help stop bleeds. I'm no EMT/RN/MD/DO, but every nurse I know who has a kit has a lot of it, my family members and friends who have deployed like it, I like it, and in some videos I've seen of people with medical knowledge being shot, they ask for it right away. Most recently, when the officer in the Breonna Taylor incident got shot by her boyfriend, severing his Femoral Artery, he was on the bodycam footage screaming at the other cops to get some QuikClot on the wound before applying anything else. QuikClot powder is also good for moderately sized cuts and gashes, where items like a tourniquet is overkill, and the use of a compression bandage might not be enough. If you have a very long, yet not super deep cut, pouring that on it and then wrapping it tightly would work, as opposed to using say 4 israeli bandages to cover the entire area, or applying a tourniquet. I fell down a steep hill and got a 6" gash down my arm from a treebranch or something, quikclot powder with normal gauze under a compression wrap is what was used. The QuikClot gauze is nice, too, because it is an extra layer of clotting stuff. I figure for a gunshot wound, TQ first if necessary, then QC powder, then QC Gauze, then the israeli bandage. For any other wounds with a moderate amount of bleeding, it is nice to have that extra clotting ability over normal gauze if needed. You don't double-layer QC gauze AFAIK, but you can put QC powder in, then one QC pad down, and then add a second or fifth pad of normal gauze on top of that if you need to. The Israeli Bandage has a little "locking area" like the plastic arms on the CAT, except without nearly the same amount of pressure, and no windlass. It allows for much more pressure than a normal compression wrap would, but allows for enough bloodflow as to not cause damage or pain like a TQ. This bigger kit is not just for one-person use. The IFAK is for just one person, be it me or someone else, whereas the big kit is for a few people (or one seriously F'd up dude) if needed. The IFAK has just enough stuff in it for one person with a passthrough chest wound or a limb wound. I got my numbers wrong, I got 3 TQs total, those chest seals in the medkit on the PC are doubles making 4 there, so 6 total, and I have a second israeli bandage in the medkit on the PC, for a total of 3. I don't plan on being shot, I also don't plan on ever needing any of this gear at all, but if I do need it I want to make sure I have everything I need to have. Gauze weighs next to nothing, quikclot powder weighs next to nothing, and it is all relatively inexpensive considering how useful it might become, so I have a decent amount of it. View Quote Not to state the obvious but with the length of your rail, you could mount a folding BUIS at 12 o’clock and easily have the same (or better) sight radius as a FSB equipped M4. Who gives a flying f@ck if it “looks bad”. Form follows function. |
