I am considering adapting my extra Safariland ALS duty holster to molle carry on my plate carrier. Wondering if anyone has had experience carrying a pistol on molle straps, particularly with regard to weapon retention. The holster is a level II retention holster and will carry a Glock 22 with...

What are you using? What works best? I will be getting a glock17 or Springfield XD(M) Handgun.

I'm all for being prepared and getting my "house in order" before the Stuff Hits The Fan. I'm trying to spend money on only the things that will be needed after "it" all happens. I've been pondering for a long time about getting chest rigs for all my calibers of ammo/guns and to be honest about...

I want to see what everyone is packing on a 'patrol' type mission. Envision that there is some kind of SHTF/World Chaos/Rosie O'Donnell streaking naked/Obama re-elected scenario. What are you going to take with you on a patrol around your AO or scavenging for supplies. This is a lightweight...

I made the rookie mistake of overthinking my EOTWAWKI/SHTF combat gear. Too heavy for really practical use. So, can someone give me a real list of what you would/ would not carry if things got "oh my gosh" really bad. I'm talking real life combat in the streets bad.

So I’m putting a couple emergency bags (think short term BOB that is with you all the time in the car/truck) for the wife and I and I started thinking I may put a 9mm with a few mags in each one. I carry (45’s) all the time so it’s not a big deal that I have a 9mm in the bag, but I can always...

I want to know what everyone plans to have on them when it's time to BO. I've always gone by the principle that there is no use collecting more weapons (Ammo is an exception) or gear that you can carry, unless you are an avid collector or plan to arm family and friends in case of a SHTF...

So my wife and I have are refining our BOB's and we've run into a little problem. We use backpack/hiking style packs to lug our gear around, and because of the way they fit, I don't think we can wear any sort of tactical vests. We both plan on using thigh holsters for our pistols, but I am...

Got a question, I like the Berreta 92 and am looking for a good tatical holister that won't break the bank. Think I like the drop leg stlye but am wondering about a tactical vest. I need some opinions, maybe some of the milatary folks could chime in. Comfort is also something I worry about...

hey all. my first hand gun will be in my possession next week in all likelihood. I got a Smith & Wesson M&P 40 in .40S&W. it's got a 4-someting inch barrel, medium to large framed piece as I would describe it. need a holster! :) here in lower NY, I could not get a full carry permit. I am...

I'm looking into buying a web gear system, and at the moment i've got my eye on the Eagle MLCS system. (http://www.finnrappel.fi/eagle_mlcs.htm) Does anybody have a reccomendation for a better system? If there's no reply within 3 days, i'll just buy this set.

How many of you have tactical vests for shtf/eotwawki situations? And if you do what brand is it?
