I've been asking Tyrone for a bigger allowance for some time now. Negotiations have been fierce.

Condor isn’t quite the airshit it once was. Their quality has improved over the past 2-3 years. My main competition rig is mostly HSGI, although with a condor douche pouch and admin/utility pouch. But that set up was about $400 even with the two condor pouches.

I have four of the condor knock offs that cost me $50 to $80 each with all the knock off pouches. I have one set up like my HSGI belt as a spare to give to friends that might be wanting to shoot a match or take a class. Another one is set up for shotgun that I use for bird hunting and a shotgun match that’s held once a year. I have two more set up for survival/camping/hiking. I keep one in each car. I’ve used the hiking one now for about 15 day hikes and several more overnights in the past 3-4 years. It’s held up.

Now the condor stuff has shit buckles and needs the H-harness not to slip down. I just use the HSGI riggers belt with my main rig and it stays in place even loaded down and moving during stages. It’s not going to hold up for 6 months in the sandbox.

But let’s face reality: if it hits the fan so bad that you need gear to last six months chances are you aren’t going to live that long anyway. Now if it’s for a few days maybe even a couple weeks…it will be just fine.

Putting something (even cheap shit) between you and incoming round is better than nothing.
