Working on my first loadout

[Catch22]

Pantac makes replicas of the vests.

Yeah, the Pantac replica's seem nice, but I can't decide between the SPC, the MTV, and possibly an FSBE. Once I decide the armor carrier I should be good to go, just wait for all the gear to get in.

I'd say the SPC for you. It's the lightest and breaths the most, the MTV is restricting and hot, and the CIRAS is bulky and heavy.

To be completly honest, its ok if you like someone elses loudout, but it should be more about what you want. For instance, I may think ACU is cool looking but should i wear it to a game in oregon? Probably not, ill stand out to much. Wear the correct BDU's to match And buy a plate carrier, then figure out what you want on it and wear. And my reccomendation is a plate carrier with cummerbund. Gives you alot more room. Sorry for making this so long

Great advice lol, and normally I would do it that way, but I don't have experience with plate carriers. I have decided though, a Pantac SPC replica (the only replica I could find), and a M88 replica. I have to hold off on boots sadly. Does this sound good? My biggest worry is that I'll order the stuff and someone will point out that its wrong.

Dont worry about people that, people should relize its a sport, and having something because its "Authentic" Isn't always the best. Now about that Pantac. Thats basically a plate carrier. I hope your wearing MARPAT with that. The m88 sounds good. What else do you plan on putting on it, ie: mag pouches, utility pouches.?

[renotheturk02]

Yeah, I'm just waiting for the trousers on the MCCUU's and as for pouches I havent decided. I plan on just throwing on what I have now and eventually getting some double mag pouches, a utility pouch and probably a medic pouch (Unless I can find an IFAK). Any suggestions on the m88 replica's though?

[Strikerz]

Id say the MICH 2000, great helemt, very comfortable

Thanks to everyone who posted, but now I have to put off buying my gear for a while. The irony of getting mugged outside of my Law enforcement classes is not lost on me.
