    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    BFG Vickers Combat Application Sling

    It allows you to reach the second adjustment while the weapon is slung behind the back. With the adjust on the regular Vickers it is down at your left hand (right handed shooter), however once you slide the rifle to you back the adjuster is now up ontop or behind your right shoulder.  Doing...

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    What it comes down to for alot of guys is the silly orders that only issued kit should be worn.  Replacing the TV could be years away as we have all seen with procurement however it should come down from the top that aftermarket kit is acceptable to wear. Sure, throw in some limits on it but...

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    Yes.  If the purchase is over $25,000 it must then be approved by Public Works.  If it's a general item that lots of companies can provide, it will go out for tender (if PW approves the purchase).  If it's a sole source item, PW must still approve it and then puts it out on MERX to see if anyone...

    Teaching happiness: the classes in wellbeing that are helping our children

    Happiness itself cannot be taught however teaching children to find happiness in themselves would be the goal.  It comes down to the Law of Attraction  ;)  Like things attract.  If you think and feel happy, healthy and wealthy then happiness, health and wealth will continue to find you. If...

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    Yes, if guys buy more from me, the better I do make out.  If that was the reason for my point of view I wouldn't be so passionate about it and I would be selling something else, something everyone would buy, not just a small group, that way I'd be making alot more money. I get cranky about it...

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    This is another silly argument. With this argument it's like saying you should have two rigs at all times, one as a back up.  What if the issue rig your wearing gets destroyed in the middle of nowhere? Can it be replaced?  Are there extra TV's at the FOB in case an issue one gets destroyed. If...

    TCCC Shoulder Bag aka The Med Murse

    The army always names things backwards so it would be something like: Purse, Army Nurse, Sachel Item.    ;D Does look handy though for certain application.

    "The stuff the army issues is useless" and "no non-issue kit over seas!"

    The problem lies in in the whole Canadian system. DLR is not a private company, it doesn't have to be innovative, it doesn't have to make money or answer to shareholders.  They came out with the Tac Vest many years later than it should have been released.  If a private company had done this...
