Originally posted by HavocIRL View PostAt least try it before you dismiss it entirely. With the quick release clips on it, it's perfect for an IFAK
Anyway, you haven't even tried it yourself.

Originally posted by HavocIRL View PostFirst off not a big hole, one of the main reasons it fails as a dump pouch. Second, the kit inside the pouch packed properly will stop it from bouncing about and falling out. Thirdly, I haven't had a chance to try it out YET.........

Now, go ahead and mention Overseas. Even though it bears no relevance to the discussion.
Happy?
You brought up the fact I'm employed in an office even though it has no bearing on the discussion. I still do duties and exercises, same as you though I'll admit not as frequently
A compromise.................I'll get a pic or two of how I have the dump pouch rigged up on my vest and the PDF members of the board can give their opinion.Last edited by HavocIRL; 4 June 2011, 20:55.To close with and kill the enemy in all weather conditions, night and day and over any terrain

Worst cat fight everThings fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
Are full of passionate intensity.

Originally posted by SwiftandSureYeah I don't think a dump pouch should ever be used as a utility pouch. If it's going to be used for anything other than empty mags, it should only be used temporarily, and with stuff that needs to be available to hand, like a derailed KITE sight, or extra smokes/pyro/shamoolis etc; stuff that's mission essential.

Lads.Seriously.Get a room."Let us be clear about three facts. First, all battles and all wars are won in the end by the infantryman. Secondly, the infantryman always bears the brunt. His casualties are heavier, he suffers greater extremes of discomfort and fatigue than the other arms. Thirdly, the art of the infantryman is less stereotyped and far harder to acquire in modern war than that of any other arm." ------- Field Marshall Wavell, April 1945.
