[QUOTE="uncle money bags, post: 2539248, member: 8377"] Well, after attending an event in Arkansas this weekend i have decided the PIG is going to be staying in the kit bag in favor of a chest rig. The only way this may change is if the temps are below about 85 and the humidity is below about 20%. I would still be inclined to run armor if i still had the Crye JPC, but the extra material and foam of the pig is just past my miserable threshold and into the "dangerous" territory for 90 degrees and 85% humidity. After the first run on Saturday at about 1100 i removed my ACS shirt and spread it out over the bed of the truck, in the sun and what little wind there was. When i tossed it into my kit bag twelve hours later, it was still wet. Almost zero evaporation. The HSGI Suregrip belt is comfy, but a little on the bulky size for my taste and i will probably be swapping that out as well. However, it stayed put and carries a load quite well. If i do use it the setup will remain unchanged; Safariland 6380, TQ and holder, 2 spare pistol mags in Eagle pouches, Eagle medium GP pouch with the essentials, and IFAK. Chest rig is Tactical Tailor Rudder Rack, 4 Eagle double m4 mag carriers, TQ and holder, 3 liter Source bladder. Same Mk18/CQBR as usual with suppressor, Aimpoint m4, Surefire Fury in Vtac mount with a vcas sling. Glock 17 with X300u. I strongly suspect those of you who missed the winter event are going to be regretting it if that decision was based on the weather. Please start your hydration a week before the event! I had done so for the DARC gun and run Saturday(more shooting, less running) and drank 3 gallons of h2o with electrolytes the day of and still had cramps during the second run of the day. By the way, there are just 30 tickets left. [/QUOTE]
