Kal's Custom Mando

going with the coyote vest and webgear! I realized that I can actually get most of that stuff over on the Navy/Marines side of the base at their tactical gear store... currently don't have a brown set of fatigues... looking for those but until I get 'em I'll be using the greys and... I'll do the camo pattern once I get some brown paint.
 
ok just a quick update for y'all... I have resined my shins on the outside... I have put the first coat of resin on my gaunts and my chest/back plates are finished. I'm working on finding my vest and belt... I need to get my pistols before I can build my thigh plates... because I'm using the integrated holsters. I'm waiting for words on my buy'ce... A'd'ika? I've got the grey fatigues... I'm working on making some real high speed battle dress.

Well here's the vest with the plates... they're not attached yet I just wanted to show off something. I think I need to cut down the collar plate a bit
 
cheaperthandirt.com... but it wasn't very cheap. I paid $80 for this carrier... but I'll be able to use it when I deploy too because it is a real carrier made by condor tactical. I have a lot of their other gear and it holds up well enough for me. I love this color tho... the coyote brown is amazing.
 
sweet! That's really good news because I'm stalled out right now. I'm going to have to redesign my rifle, and I have no money to buy parts right now for my kit :( I'm still working on getting everything together tho
 
Yeah, I think almost everyone I know is in a bit of a money pinch right now. I know I am...:facepalm But, never fear! I'm having Demagol over tommorow and we're gonna crack open a new tub of bondo and get to work on some 'gam (Your lid being the highest thing on my list :) )
 
ok vode... just wanted to let you know that I am limmited on my current activities. I had my wisdom teeth removed today and I'm on profile/quarters until monday. I have however come up with some ideas. Some of my weapons that I think I can manage to build... I'm going to make/carry an Apache style tommohawk, and a tactical combat knife with about a 5 or 6 inch blade... The Tommohawk will be sheathed on the back of the webbelt behind a buttpack, with the blade and a small part of the handle exposed to allow ease of access. The combat knife will be mounted in a sheath on the front right side of the chest plate, with the handle turned down and left to allow easy pull for my left hand (because I'm a south paw). In that configuration it'll also allow easy access for the right hand, just not as easy. I'm going to try to make a tension lock sheath for it, so that the knife will just pop in and out. The knife and tommohawk will be made from pine wood boards that I have left over from a failed attempt at a rifle.
