Just wondering if anyone ou there is familiar with this sight? I have an oppurtunity to get one and am wondering what they are worth?

I see my rant had the desired effect.  Firstly I was talking about DP3B, which is run every year not one of a dozen BMQ's.  I have been around long enough to understand why BMQ/SQ type courses get cancelled but the senior courses are different as far as I'm concerned. I wouldn't be upset if it...

I'm going to go on a bit of a rant here, so bear with me. I'm sure I'll get some appropiate responses as well.... I was slated to go on DP3B(6B) this year in Gagetown, as I work for the Federal Gov't (Corrections) I had to get the time off. I used some of my holidays as well as Military Leave...

If you want solid, well-built, then go with the Tactical Tailor 3 Day Pack in Cadpat from Dave's Surplus.  They have a website as well but the bags aren't on it. If you want to see one just go to Tac Tailor and check out the OD one. However they are not cheap, around $189 from Dave's, tell them...

Thanks Wes, I take it those are Aussie numbers or are they NATO numbers?

Kevin, Are you sure those weren't an operational purchase? If they are in the system does anyone have the stock number so I can talk my RQ into ordering some. As far as buying privately, I have only ever seen them on Ebay, and they are few and far between. Has anyone seen them for sale here...

Just wondering if anyone has used or is using the after-market C9 cloth ammo bags. I know they come in black and AUSCAM, and come in 50, 100 and 200 rd configurations. I'm wanting to buy some but can't find them except for the odd one on Ebay.

Kevin, Have you gotten your BLU kit yet? I am very interested in buying one. Please let us know.

You're right, I am starting to generalize. I guess I thought that the whole reg/reserve thing went out in the 90's!

As a guy who was there I can say this: 1. We did three months of work-up 2. There were incidents almost as soon as we got on the ground 3. A lot of guys had tours - to Cyprus 4. Yes the majority of leaders leaders in the rifle coys were regs, and some pretty damn good ones too, but, there...

The point I was trying to make was it's hard to train for every scenario.  Personally, I would rather move from the top down, mouseholing all the way. It causes a lot of damage but more of your guys are going home.  If you train for high-intensity, it will be easier to transition down than it...

We are in the midst of training for Urban Ops. There seems to have been a shift from all-out (high-intensity) fighting to this 3 block war concept. The question is: how do we train for all three blocks???? It's more common nowadays to enter a building and find everything from a family eating...

The rumour going around on the left coast is that there is going to be a new version of the CRIC (Composite Reserve Infantry Company) going to Afghanistan in early 2006. That rumour originated from our Ops shop.

I see you rmember me, however I'm at a bit of a loss. I am looking for one as mine broke. Do you have a line on them??  I would appreciate any info you could give me.

Oh don't worry, I can get the material!!!!!!!!! Right now it's just the old dineros!!!

I can't wait to get mine as well. I'm going for the Cadpat version. However I may have to wait for a bit as that is a lot ($$$$$$) of clearance to get from niner!

Did you get it with all the armour upgrades, or just the vest. I've heard they're pretty good.  How would you rate it?

I believe in train how you will fight. I think keeping the issue at 5 mags per is a logistical decision more than a tactical one. I don't know about other units, but mine does not train troops to fire auto. It takes too much time and training to teach troops how to do it properly so we keep it...

Looks like I would have to remortgage my house to own one of those!!

No you can only buy pinned mags in Canada thanks to one Mr. Mark Lapine. That way when you go on a shooting spree it forces you to get good at mag changes!
