Here in Wain world the WWB has worked its way into becoming a standard item of dress.Like was said before,they are warm,and not fit for ruck marching or the like. for parades,you should quitely find out what most everyone else is wearing and go with that.You don't want to make yourself a target...

I'm looking to purchase one of the M-16 family of knives from CRKT company and am faced with the prospect of mail ordering from a yank company if I cant find a dealer or shop in Edmonton that carries these models.Any help?

You did not earn them,therefore your not entitled to wear them.If you want to remember,have them remounted,matted on their regimental colors and maybe if you can find it,their original capbadge.Looks very smart and is a excellent way to preserve your families history.

If anyone here plays video games either on the X-box or PS2,does'nt that weapon remind you of the one that Sam Fisher carries in the  Splinter Cell series?

Thank you for the help so far.One other request(if it is;nt to much trouble):could you maybe trim the excess and make this topic a permanent fixture that wouldn't fade out of existence? If trimmed and made a permanent FAQ,this could be a good resource tool in this forum.not only for explaining...

To play devil's advocate(by no means aggreeing with the initial post by DJ)you could say that all of the kitshop stuff has a LCF.That,coupled with the practicality of the kit, in essence is the reason we purchace it.How many times do new recruits purchace kit just because they have seen someone...

CFSEME as well has a good number of retired\civilian instructors on its payroll in Borden.

I can honestly say that every piece of kit I have bought is for usefulness and not LCF.When your out in the field,LCF might be important to some,but comfort and being able to do your job that little bit easier is whats important to me. For myself,I can say,that alot of the stuff I have bought...

Alright,I'll start,and hopefully everybody will add thier fav's KNIVES AND MULTI_TOOLS http://www.crkt.com/ http://www.leatherman.com/ http://www.gerberblades.com/home.php BAGS AND OTHER STUFF http://www.wheelersonline.com/2005Catalog/1-All-Products(1).asp...

Could some helpful Mod maybe compile a listing of links to some of the more reliable equipment site?IE,CP gear,dropzone,seals action gear etc? I think this would be a great resource for people to find the products that we talk about in the equipment forum.

The CET was(when I took it)was your atypical army,yelling and push-up course.All other courses were pretty relaxed.Once your on the Technical courses,they concentrate on you learning your job,not if you have lint on your beret. Now thats not to say discipline is'nt enforced,but you have alot of...

Hey,not exactly 411,I'm 421,same branch,different trade,but alot of our trg is similar. Upon arriving in Borden,you'll have to do a CET-common EME Trg.Basically a intro to the branch and a little fieldcraft. Then its off to CETT-Common EME Tech Trg.Hand tools,shop math and bench work. Then its...

I've been debating on buying one of those MEC sporks to solve the mess weapon problems.Any reviews?

I must say that my Leatherman is the best purchace that was made for me(by my wife,I might add).In my trade,sometimes its easier to climb into a turret with a multi-tool than a tool box.Less tools for the turret gremlins to steal and you avoid the "pass me the screwdriver" which leads to "F**k...

Or sew longer straps to the 82 pattern kidney pad.They don't have to be super long,just 2" longer.Thats all I did.

It was -45 last night.nuff said.

I've used both the issued FE knife and my leatherman out in all types of weather,including Wainwright cold and have never run across any problems as long as you don't put your tongue on the blade.

The old toms in Borden are pretty wily old birds.To bad you can't hunt where they all hang out at all the time(right on the base!)but I've seen a few big uns out in the trg area as well.The best thing about bird hunting is you don't have to worry to much about scent control but your camo has to...
