Well Rabintex already has a supply of their helmets with the CF along with various Canadian police agencies thus it already has a track record of use in Canada. Sure there are other helmets out and about, but this one is light, low profile has a similar shape (especially with a helmet cover and...

If you guys are worried about lighter helmets just look at the Rabintex Attack: http://www.rabintex.com/ProductView.asp?ID=12, I think there is a model of the Attack shell made specific for paratroopers.

Funny thing is that more SFG CIF (Counter Insurgence Force) Companies are being stood up, maybe that will change with the mounting budget cuts, SFG is a big group in USASOC and could see a lot of the Special Operations cuts coming their way.

I'm going to slip my helmet on for a second, In the case of the 75th RR its preferred to be brought up in Batt instead of coming from big army in their point of view, a lot of the guys coming from big army have a higher RFS number than those coming in right from the Opt-40 don't ask me how that...

Care to elaborate?

Now I'm just going off a whim here and I don't think I'm qualified to make a statement but it seems your suggesting something similar to the British Army's 16th Air Assault Brigade. 16th AAB holds three of the four parachute battalions, and the air assault elements from other...

Now that is something interesting to note, curious as to what the Canadian Army did there that influenced his concept of Mobile Infantry.

You'd be surprised how inspired the US Military is by the Novel; Starship Troopers.

I am in Secondary School as well (Grade 12), and trust me get your diploma not only does it make you more competitive but it helps later down the road if and when you want to take some part time courses that may benefit your chosen profession or when you leave the service to go to school or...

Nothing more righteous than a pack that weighs as much as me.  ;D

Its a trap! There is nothing light about light infantry. :P

Now I'm not exactly in the military yet because I'm still finishing school, but I am in the process of enlisting as a Med Tech. So I'll tell you what this forum told me first. First just take a few minutes to use the search bar just to check if anything has been answered yet. Second keep the...

I skimmed through the comments, noticed that a CF-35 discussion somehow broke out... very odd indeed.

The thing with .260 since its relatively the same size as a 7.62 round the only thing you are changing is the barrel, which means when you run out swap the barrel and go nutz. Edit: Now I'm not saying multiple cals is a good thing, just pointing out for precision work there are better...

On the topic of match grade 7.62 you for precision work you would actually be better off shooting .260 Remington, it has out performed 7.62 on various occasions and since it uses a .308 casing doesn't need much changing of the weapon's internals, only problem is that 7.62 is a hell of a lot...

Heh. On the 'Mini-C6' note, its actually not a shorter FN MAG, its just the Mini chambered in 7.62 (older than the Mk.48 too). The real 'mini' C6 is a new model of the M240, M240L.

Not for SOF, heh I said it was something I enjoyed using for training for the CF it had a large hydration bladder and lots of room to carry weights for rucking. Plus could be useful when in the CF (If I'm accepted when done schooling) just said it was a good piece of gear in my opinion. Plus...

Not saying I'm marketing I'm just flexing my designing muscles that haven't been used as of late, figured I'd put them for something practical other then medieval fantasy sketches or the latter. I see your point of view on the subject, don't assume all sixteen year olds are 'Airsofting/Gear...

Hey guys I have a question: so if you could have a plate carrier with molle what features would you want in the design? You can use existing plate carriers and equipment to show what you would want in this 'carrier'. I was thinking a quick release system of some sort so the Medical Tech doesn't...

Thanks for the link, I'll post around some of my questions on there not 18 yet so I can't go on lightfighter.
