    Cmbt CADPAT shirts

    A lot of "specialized" units from a few nations wear multi-cam over there with the forementioned features like built in knee patches, dri fire, etc. I would like to sew on my own pockets like the tunics mentioned in this thread, but I'm certain everyone that knows me wouldn't beleive me when I...

    Helmet upgrades ? MICH / ACH style pads in CAF style kevlar, any one done one?

    I've been using them for almost 4 years now, including (especially) on operations.  As has a lot of my CoC. Yes, certain folks don't want you using them, so do so at your own risk....

    Alleged Institutional Racism/solutions in CAF (merged)

    I've never seen it here and I know for a fact it wouldn't be tolerated. As for being anonymous, I know I will choose my words much more carefully here then I would in the actual workplace since you are putting it as a matter of public record.  I may be a stranger to most people on here but it...

    Alleged Institutional Racism/solutions in CAF (merged)

    This thread is completely ridiculous, yet I feel compelled to say a few things. First off, if some people feel discriminated against, I would suggest that in some cases it has nothing to do with their skin colour or ethnicity but simply because they are whiny dolts.  As demonstrated by some in...

    Civilian credentials on your MPRR ??

    Indeed.  Anyone know where I can look up the full list? On Ex in Ft. Irwin, a lot of us took courses from the Americans and were wondering how to get them on our MPRR.

    Sling recommendation

    I used a VCAS for sometime with the adapter.  Works fine. Why do you want a padded rifle sling?

    CPGear MoFOCR or TT MAV/MFR?

    I have no experience with the MoFOCR, but I have bought, hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars worth of CP Gear products.  They have some unique items that I certainly appreciate, especially for us Canucks, but overall I don't think their overall quality (workmanship, design, materials) can...

    Helmet upgrades ? MICH / ACH style pads in CAF style kevlar, any one done one?

    I had Skydex pads in for a few years but really wasn't happy with it.  I went with an Oregon Aero setup and was very happy.  There was someone selling Skydex pads for about $30 around here, which is a good value.  But at there regular price (90ish?) I would definitely opt for the BLSS...

    Commander-in-Chief Unit Commendation: 1PPCLI, 1RCR & 3R22eR

    That would coincide roughly with the 1RCR Change of Command.

    US midterms: Republicans win

    Yet, around here, and in this country, Republican hating is popular sport and it is flippantly treated as a fact that all America's and the world's problems can be blamed on the evil Republicans and Bush.

    US midterms: Republicans win

    Well I suppose there was that much deserved Nobel Peace Prize... In response to MPwannnabe, you sound open minded enough in your subesequent posts, but the topic start came off as "How could the American people be so foolish as to fall back in the clutches of the evil Repubs... The saint Obama...

    US midterms: Republicans win

    I think there is a lot you don't understand..... Feel free to carry on with your Republican/Bush bashing.

    Camp Mirage Superthread

    Recenty, on return from HLTA, we were met at the airport and advised we would not be admitted to CM.  So instead we spent the night at the airport (earlier flights got hotels). As far as Emirates versus Air Canada.... I've always avoided Air Canada as the general concensus was that they are...

    The BG's 4th manouevre coy

    First of all, saying “4th manoeuvre company” implies that the other coys are actually manoeuvre companies.  We’re lucky enough to muster up a platoon as a manoeuvre element most of the time. Secondly, “too late” for what exactly? And I don’t see how they could “cover off” for HLTA, injuries...

    Adding a Missile capability to the LAV III

    That's along the lines I was thinking.

    Adding a Missile capability to the LAV III

    It's funny because I've seen several US Stryker commanders roll around with AT-4s up in their cupola.  Made me feel inadequate with just my pistol and rifle. But then, they were often jealous of the 25..... As far as the TOW on a LAV turret, how hard would it be to intergrate like on the Bradley?

    ATVs

    We've used gators (outfitted with a C6 on a pintle mount) on a few Ops to shuttle resupplies into tight built up areas.

    Rocky SV2 boots

    Rockys will tend to eat laces.  It's usually due to burrs on the metal eyelets.  I solved the problem on one pair by smoothing the burr down with a file.  It can be tricky to get at it properly. On a side note, I couldn't be happier with my tan Rockys so far.  Since I wear them pretty well all...
