I know I'm a retard for not buying it sooner but meth said we needed furniture instead of just sleeping on air mattress and eating on a towel. I was kinda digging the picnic vibe though.
Any good budget options for plate carriers and plates? Mag pouches would be good too.
Next time you go to the store for shit paper, taquitos, tampons, and Ten High 51% Bourbon 49% neutral commie spirits, just pick one that has a paper bag option, do self checkout, and sextuple bag all your shit. If anyone challenges you or gets uppity, just stare through them, furrow your brow, rip ass to assert dominance over the situation, clear your throat, mumble, and carry on like a true supermarket coinneuseuir. When you get home, you're going to need to waterproof them bitches. Wait until mom finishes her Pinot and Valium nightcap and calls her friend Demarcus to come fix her clogged sink. When the Valium kicks in and lets her muscles relax enough for ol' boy to fit that ninth inch in her, she'll start hitting those operatic falsetto notes in the bedroom - this is your cue to quit playing with your dick and sneak upstairs to steal all her good smelling candles that she saves for company. Melt those motherfuckers down and rub the wax all over your paper bags... make sure to rub it in multiple directions - the same strategy you use to mix things up when you're stroking your dick off to the same grainy porn video for the 90th time. After it all dries, whip out the duct tape and make yourself some shoulder straps. You can use some off-brand Koban/self-adhesive bandage or an ACE wrap for an elastic cummerbund. Voila bitch, you're hood rich as fuck. Go Kenosha kid some boyscout motherfuckers who wanna fuck around and find out.
Sweet tits I missed you fam.
Fuuuuuck, whats up my friend? Glad you're still around. The 'rona hit my area hot and heavy, I got busy as shit, and I neglected my obligations to the cause. You've been missed as well. I need to shit talk some of these butter-soft tenderfoots and give some terrible advice to impressionable individuals to get back in the swing of things.
Spoken like the classy autist you are!
Never forget to mount the flashlight backwards so you can see your rear sights.
I already fart and grumble through the store so this won't bat an eye.
No ace bandage, do you think the elastic of my undies would work? They're kinds loosey goosey right now so maybe if I double up it'll have enough springyness.
You could, but the blown out waistband from those mustard stained, cum soaked sweatpants you wear to the store so you can get a quick jack in mid-trip would work better... more comfortable, I'd imagine.
That could work. They're sentimental but I could always wear my cookie monster pajamas.
Ahhh, a man of distinction and taste, I see
So you can get a free one, follow 4 easy steps:
Jokes on you recruiters have been telling me I'm a special boy and just right for the marines.
Can find a flak jacket at pawn shop. Used would need more piss?
Sure you can, especially older ones. I think all the interceptor series will hold plate, only the really old school ones don't but I know for a fact people rig them up
My guess is the interceptors (If they have thesoft kevlar with them) are easy going to be $300.
Most important thing is to get the plates. Someone mentioned shellback and they do have Level IV rated plates for about $360 for a set. When it comes to a plate carrier you can always go buy some fabric, needles, and thread and sew your own if it came down to it.
As far as pouches go ESStac and HSGI make good ones that will last. Some of the newer condor stuff is better than it used to be. It won't survive a 6 month deployment in the sandbox, but I have double 7.62 condor pouch that has held up through several matches over the last couple years held in an old rock quarry that tends to rip up gear.
GarandThumb has some really cheap stuff he reviews on his youtoob
Yea I definitely recommend this flashlight it's amazing, I'll leave the link in the description...
Check it, it's $350 for a flashlight.... Yea I bet it is amazing... Fuck you rich flannel daddy
If you ever blaspheme the Flannelsexual again I will personally clog your toilet with what’s left of your corpse.
Now show me your fuckin toes faggot.
What’s the budget?
Well I saw a setup for $700 and thought it was a little steep. $300 would be better, but I don't know if there are any options for that amount. Although if my Corona cash ever comes I'll have more to spend. Maybe my dad will bring it when he comes back with those cigarettes.
L210 plates if you're on foot, ceramic Lvl 4's if you're defensive in position. No steel. Key to comfort is to get some ventilation between you and PC via padded pontoons or some such. Get multicurve if you can swing it.
https://www.optactical.com/ H3810's are a great all-around plate. They have better prices on lvl4 though, plus decent PCs.

Helmets are arguably just as important, probably more so if explosions are anticipated.

Get a Spartan Level 3+ swimmer cut. I have steel plates, everyone loves ceramic because it’s lighter, but it also can’t take multiple hits. If you’re not a weak body get steel plates, they are more reliable to save your life. Plus, ceramic is fragile and if you fall you can break it. Idg the hype, if 10-15lbs extra is a deal breaker for you, you are probably in too shit of shape to escape body armor type scenario
My fucking carrier is on massive backorder so I had to order a piece of shit off Amazon for $40 in the meantime, the plates are doing all the work so it's fine for that, but comfort will be an absolute bitch.
Got ar500 plates from midway a few months back for $124 because poorfag, got them within a few days. Ceramic is ideal because weight but super expensive, steel plates are about 10lbs each
for ultra budget I would recommend the condor mopc, I think the only one Condor makes that isn't only good for airsoft.
