I found this on MP.net, I don't speak French....is this airsoft or are these guys for real? http://www.milice.qc.ca/ Noneck

Jim, here are a few: The first is a commercial enterprise, the second I think is associated to the Museum and the third is the business that is displayed in each Detachment with proceeds towards the Mounted Police fund (This is the one that i thought was in Langley but is actually in...

Whatever you do, do not buy the CADPAT  "Arktis Sigma" vest that appears from time to time on Ebay. The quality is crap, it's not even Arktis and it's a darker clone of CADPAT. I fell for it! I'll be re-selling it to an airsofter soon. Noneck

Also FWIW you need to be carefull of what pattern of black knife you are allowed to wear. There are distinct Regimental patterns, which are quite different than the civvy models with deer antler style handles and so forth. There is a CIC Major with the 2812 Cadet Corps here in the LMD, that...

Is this for the Regs or for the PRes? We currently have several ex UK Forces lads in my regiment with two others in the waiting to get in. The hurdles are getting your quals recognized by DAT, you will need all of your annual assessments, course reports and testimonial if you recieved one. It...

D&B I agree 100%. I use the MEC Hybrid, it's relatively inexpensive and is rated down to -20. When it gets really cold I just add an inner bag, which is small enought to use as a patrol bag by itself in the summer. The hybrid comes in some great rave colours however no one see's it when it's...

Having picked up MCpl T's empty one I would say in the area of about 20Lbs. Maybe one of our Reg F site members could give an accurate weight?

We reserve the title "Dancing Bear" for someone else at 1650 Burrard. I guess a title that transcends Regimental History!

This is a very early prototype...actually it's the only version thus far. Subsequent versions will have a OD snow collar and a sternum strap.

As for reviews it's pretty simple, it carries like a 64 pattern ruck!  I initially spoke to Hobey about extending the 64 pattern bag when he produced the bags for the 39 CBG Cambrian Team this time last year. I requested that he add side pockets like a Bergan, however I now prefer the cleaner...

We do have our own thread on this forum, so I was quite surprised when the question was posted in this area. There is one other CF qualification badge that I have seen RCMP members wearing and that is the CF EOD Badge. I've seen it worn on both the work and dress uniform. I don't know if that...

No they are not allowed to be worn on any RCMP form of dress.....however I do know several folks that wear them anyway on their red serge. No one has jacked them up for it. I have seen both para wings Cdn and Dutch and SAR Tech Wings. I was at Depot today for the Memorial Parade and the latest...

Lee is a good lad, I was on course with him in Meaford in 97. Unfortunately he suffered a knee injury and had to leave the CF. I am glad to see that he has done realy well for himself in academia. We spent a lot of time talking about the Medak Pocket during that course and he then went on to...

One of these FOB/Urban Ops sites was built in Chwk last year at the Opsee Trg Area. We should start using it this trg year.

The Brits over on ARRSE have been on to the "Walt/Poser" thing for some time. They litterally have pages on these dudes and hound them until they remove themselves or print retractions. Quite a good laugh if you are looking for some humour.

Is this movie about the agent called "Steaknife" ? This makes two movies from the TIFF that I want to watch. The other is "The Stone of Destiny".

I bought a couple of yards of CADPAT cordura from a local surplus shop and had a local gearmaker extend a 64 pattern rucksack bag to the top of the 64 frame, add a snow collar, tension straps on each side, PALS on the front and a top lid with a pocket. It's not as big as the new ruck but it fits...

I served in the same Regiment as Tony and went overseas with him in the same Company in 1993. I took part in the very first VTP with Tony and a few others in 97/98 at UBC and went on to be a peer counsillor on several other VTP's since. It is a very powerful program which in turn has...

Jim , I haven't forgotten about your request, I've been out of town with work for the last couple of weeks and will probably spend another week or so away before i can get the info. Noneck

On that topic, if you are trying to do it on the cheap check out the MEC gearswap. It's a great source for used outdoor gear and there are some amazing deals from yuppy types that use high end gear once and then flip it! Here's the link...
