Oh! This is just so wrong on so many levels. It was already killing me, then you specifically single me out...

Brother, this is one SWEET piece of gear!
I sent egg a bad drawing, he sends me exactly what I had envisioned. 95% solution, first shot.
I might take some pics, when I get a chance, if there is any interest.
Payment made on the next item ordered already! Looking forward to hooking it all together.

Even support guys...(me) like good gear. I would like to see the pictures of Eggrolls creation.

You, Counsel, do not need this kind of gear.
However, since you asked nicely, I do have a few pics I shot quickly this evening.
I asked for a 9 x M-4 mag carrier that would fit on the front of a modular carrier type vest. I wanted at least 3 mags quickly accessible with only shock cord and friction retaining them, and the rest able to be covered, or not, as my preferred configuration. I wanted PALS webbing on the front for attaching a 5 x Pistol mag shingle, which he is working on now. There was one more mod we thought of afterward, but it is minor. No one we could think of made a mag panel that had all of that.
This is Eggroll's "Nine-Pack", mounted on an Eagle MLCS carrier. 270 rounds of rock and roll therapy. He also makes a Six-Pack which is the rear portion of the Nine-Pack, and a Three-Pack, which is the open, shock corded front portion of the pouch. His Fugly is above it, and his Loppy below and to the right (as viewed).
It is nice kit. It is very well made. He can make more, the price was very reasonable for this sort of detailed work.
Anyone needs more pics or another angle, let me know.
Last pic is for egg to see the size difference of a Surefire 6-P, an E2e, and an L1 Lumamax.
Enjoy!

Three flashlights is not too much....I always brake the ones I have, no matter the price or the size!!
I broke 2 Photon III, by the way.

DF:
I do not carry all of those lights on my vest. As I stated, they are there for a size comparison for eggroll.
In/around my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd lines of gear, I would normally carry a Surefire weapons light, at least one L1, a couple of Photon IIIs, and probably a Photon Fusion headlamp.
I have never managed to break a Surefire, and I have several. I did lose one, and searched for it for several days.

That`s what I though. I always bring a Photon III on my vest, and a maglight. Another maglight in my 3rd line, and of course many AAs.
Maybe I should just get a Surefire too...a long-term economic solution.
Thank you for sharing those pictures.

No further comments on this?
Good rig, bad rig, you like, you don't like?
NDD, no feedback, after I violated orders to give you the skinny?

I'm not speaking to Egg. Any comments I have on the rig would necessarily be positive and I refuse to do that at this juncture.
