A lot of that was just transferred over from my old patrolling harness, so once I got into an environment, I might pare it down. If you dumped yours, you might find you carry more than you realize. Some of my list may remind you of something you forgot.

My 1st line list would be on my thread also in the PG forum here obscurely entitled "1st Line Gear", or something to that effect.

HTH, good luck.

Thank you.

What's in it, METT dependent...

Since noone else asked... I will. Whatcha carry in the plastic flasks, BM?

;)

Believe it or not, just water......I prefer the slimmer/less bulky flasks to the heavier 1 qts........

I'm a believer in always having some water in your 2nd line, even though I do use my camelback all the time. So I carry these pilot flasks.

I still carry 1 quarts, although I get a lot less field time these days...

You may want to check out using Platypus 0.5L sport bladders or their 0.375L "Little Nipper" bladders in place of the flasks, as they collapse, weigh almost nothing, and take up very little room.

would concur on the .5 platys... they're a perfect fit for my Columbia ski jacket breast pockets... should have seen the look at the Kimpo AP screener when I showed her! :D

The great thing about the platys is you can roll them up and wrap them with a rubber band (loosely) and they'll keep out of place.

So why were you showing them off? Did she think you had implants or something? :p

They are very nice gear. No, you may not take them to SFAS.

she wondered.. man what big PECS! :p

I like my flasks......:)

I do have the platypus bladders in all sizes, but I just prefer the flasks....
