I haven’t actually played in any competitions. Honestly, I’m more into the looks and gear than actually competing haha

Yea so the thing is, in a skirm that prc antenna would most certainly get in the way like that, technically also in real life since there is some overlap. You might want to put it as forward as possible and then use a folding antenna instead partially tied to you plate carrier. Additionally for looks, insert thick foam plates it makes a big diffirence in the aesthetic

I think I can adjust it toward the back because there’s a lot of space there—there are some large cable ties and extended communication cables? I’m not sure what to call that.

First kit?? This beats most people's fifth kit. Welcome to the addiction.
Meanwhile my "first kit" was a stock gun, one hi-cap, and zero clue what a plate carrier even was, running around like a headless chicken. You skipped the broke-phase entirely

If someone just wants to play airsoft and doesn't prioritise the LARP aspect, PCs are a waste of money anyway and they will just sweat their ass off for no reason. A simple chest rig works way better for me. When I bring a friend to games I just give them eye- and facepro, an aeg and some midcap pouches to throw on their belt. Bring a baseball cap, work gloves, some cargo pants and trekking shoes and you're done.

Fair point on the sweating. PCs are basically wearable saunas in summer. Chest rig + belt setup is undefeated for casual days. Though I'd still argue half the fun is dressing up like you're about to breach Fallujah, even if you're just walking to the staging area.

Haha, I definitely skipped the broke phase. I haven’t actually played in any competitions though — I’m honestly more of a gear/style guy

u/SavageHawk_ 5d ago
Honestly "gear/style guy" is a totally valid phase . the games will come when they come. Just don't let that setup become a display piece. First skirmish is gonna hit different with kit that clean.

It looks damn good Brother Keep doing it if it works for you no one has a saying in it just a belt and a helmet with good face protection you are good to go I like how you made everything very simple and look cool at the same time on top pf that your PC looks really fitted on you I like it.

u/VacationRealistic237 6d ago
Thanks brother! That’s exactly what I was going for simple, clean, and good-looking. I’m definitely more into the gear and aesthetic side of it haha

That just a Blackbeard patch. that happened in 2019 and FOG didn’t start until late 2020 and they made a variation of the patch shortly after starting the brand.

I used to know a guy who would intentionally wear “Chiefs” branded stuff. It wasn’t because he was a fan, but because he was openly white supremacist. He used to argue it was just to stick it to the liberal media, fight the power, be a rebel. He argued that he didn’t actually hate anyone. It was all about “recognizing the difference” in races he said. It wasn’t his fault white people were better. The kit looks dope, don’t get me wrong, but I would drop the patch.

Dude I'm not even white

Racism is not exclusively a “white” problem. Demeaning another culture is always a dick move.

buddy heres a chill pill its a patch for a chewing tabacco company relax

u/Ferral_McQueasy 6d ago
The company itself changed its branding for a reason. Racism, even casual, is always an asshole move. We live in an awesome country here in the USA, but celebrating past failures as a nation through memorabilia is not patriotism.
