lets see what you guys can come up with that can help out the rest of us
anything that you have used or thought would work but is untested at the moment, or something you learned from the military, maybe something that is CHEAP and Easy and Strange or Silly - but WORKS

pretty wide open topic


heres one -- Meat Socks, those netting you put over meat so it dont fall apart while cooking
they are kinda stretchy and can be slipped over the gun stock or scope and ghillie camo or vegitation can be looped into the holes, gonna have to dye it your fav color, it comes in white and painting it wont work when its stretched out (exposes the white, unless you use it for snow camo)
-can also by slide over your arm if you have short sleeves and need camo coverage in 1 min without using paste/wax coloring


EG 4 cell AK mag pouchs -- use it on regular USGI pistol belts without struggling to put the belt through the loops -- get some 2 inch webbing and sew the ends together and slide it through the pouch loops, the webbing doesnt/shouldnt be any longer than the loops -- add 3 alice clips, 1 in the middle and 2 on the outside of the loops attached to the webbing then connect it to your belt

--these are untested but in theory should work

------------------
and on the 8th day GOD made the AK-47 and saw that this was good

talk is cheap, but bullets are even Cheaper!!!

Take an every day butt pack, the one w/2 bottle holders in it.
Reverse it so it's a belly pack.
Now take your AK chest pouch and sew in a loop in the middle, between the mag pouches.
Now run a caribiner through that.
Attach the caribiner to the loop on the belly pack.

Now, you have a harness supported belly pack.
And smoke grenades, etc. fit nice in those fishnet water bottle pouches.

At some point, punishment loses its meaning.
Remember: Leverage only works against those with something to lose...

A good way to apply those hard GI camo sticks is to take some insect repellent and work it into the stick. It makes it soft enough to apply and also helps keep away the bugs.
