Alright guys, how many of you watched that show Jericho about four years ago? Anybody remember Ravenwood, the corrupt band of roving Contractors Mercenaries? Welp, I'm making me a Ravenwood loadout!
I'm using that, plus the episode where they go to Rogue River as a basis for the loadout.
I've got mag pouches, the trousers, a thigh holster, and the rifle, now I just need the vest and the other leg rig. The vest looks like just a simple Condor vest, but I can't quite tell and the other leg rig looks like just a drop leg with a utility pouch. Help!
Watch this vid so you can see the Ravenwood Contractors Mercenaries. You'll know 'em when you see them, haha
Yes, the civies said 'clips'.

the other rig is a MOLLE rig with a M4 pouch or maybe a utility pouch. Kind of like the one i got, except in black.

That's what I was thinking. I also need to get a patch like this.

Well, I would order from those guys, except I only need two patches, not ten. I'm thinking I'm going to have to go to an embroidery shop or something, but I'm worried they won't have the stuff to make the patches. The best place I can think of locally would be maybe Kirtland AFB, but I don't know if they'd be able to make a non-unit patch.

Get a bunch from Butler. Bring the extras to your local airsoft shop. Sell em to the guys behind the counter for face price. They resell for double. They make profit. You get your patches for cheap because your bought bulk.
I've done it on a few occasions.

Durkee, thank you, you gave me a great idea! Patches for the whole team and a name change is in order!
Also, I'm thinking the vest in that pic is this. I'm trying to think if there's a RS equivalent though. Something keeps telling my Eagle Industries, but I don't think it is an EI rig.
edit: Okay, I just went through and made a basket on ASGI.

not to be off topic but look at the way he has his optics on his rifle set up. not practical at all, and doesn't work (if you look carefully you'll notice what i mean.
honestly that vest looks like its awkward to wear (too blocky) but it looks like you will have a lot of molle real estate.

@NN2H Yeah, I know haha. I was looking at them going what the hel1? The vest does look quite blocky indeed, but I think if I just wear it a bit, I'll get used to it.
@Gentry Do you think it will fit someone who's 6'1", 240 lbs?
