    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    Thanks. I'm still deciding but I think I might have to give the edge to the VCAS based on different peoples' recommendations.

    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    Haha, well I'm a reservist and I'm Armoured Recce, so mounted most of the time as well, although a decent amount of dismounted recce patrols are also done. What's your opinion of the VTAC sling vs the VCAS? Only issue I see with the VCAS is the limited level of adjustability so if I really want...

    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    So you just run it off the standard front sling swivel?

    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    Thought so. I may just end up getting a rail sling mount and put it on the TRI-AD

    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    I've been looking at that for a while now, doesn't it require some kind of side sling mount for the front as well?

    How to wear the sling when wearing a smallpack/rucksack

    Hi, I've been using the issued sling in a two point configuration off the top of the stock and with paracord off the front sight, and I have very little complaints except for when I wear a ruck or smallpack. The sling gets pinned under the smallpack's shoulder straps and won't let me raise the...

    Domestic Terrorism/Public Attacks on CAF Personnel

    Do you know if it will get off at Keele like it usually does or just continue past Toronto to Hamilton?

    Domestic Terrorism/Public Attacks on CAF Personnel

    I'm conflicted on the issue, although it'll be a little difficult to hide the fact I'm a member tomorrow regardless when I take the subway carrying a fully loaded ruck and my FFO for the exercise this weekend.

    Domestic Terrorism/Public Attacks on CAF Personnel

    I've gotten the sense that that's been more or less the sentiment all along, even before the incident, however I wouldn't be surprised if there were fewer uniformed CAF members in the public. I know that I'm a little wary to wear my uniform to work, seeing as I live in the heart of Toronto and...

    Domestic Terrorism/Public Attacks on CAF Personnel

    With all the talk about keeping CAF members out of their uniforms in public, I can't wait until Remembrance Day when we're all back in the public eye, uniformed, and in full force.

    My thoughts on EX Stalwart Guardian 2014

    I was in C. Our Troopy was texting the BC the whole time because that's the only way we could get reliable orders. You mention your troops' professionalism, which I also experienced. Regardless of orders and objectives etc., all the people I worked with knew their stuff and were professional and...
