Makes sense to me...your not reg force...or militia...Period.

the reason if its solid (olive) the rank is olive if its digital and it dosen't match you improvise for cadpat and as well where it says canada its universal unit flash there's an option for cadets "CADET" or "CANADA"

I'm a huge cadpat whore and love it considering I think I am up to close $3000 spent on my cadpat kit. Though multicam is quickly growing on me too and will be my next loadout. I have no issues of paying ~$500 for a repro crye vest with the real multicam on it.

go for dropzone tactical some of the best of brians stuff theres alought to chose from for multicam get an olive modcan vest and put the multicam pouches on it the site is www.dropzonetactical.com

Shhhhhh bro.....they call em "reserves" now. Milita sounds too harsh and soldierly, which implies force and (GASP) guns.

And Cameron, be aware that there's much more to gear than your limited exposure. Things like the Crye Chassis aren't about load bearing, they're collectors items. Most of the people you're speaking to here are collectors, and trust me, they have more gear rigs from more manufacturers that you've likely ever seen. I personally have more gear than any ten people could use at a time, a lot of it unique. Hell, I even build the stuff.

Finally, you shouldn't have to send gear back for repairs because it shouldn't fail in the first place. If it does, it had BETTER get replaced free of charge. Remember the intended usage. Losing your life over shoddy stitching is pretty stupid.

the only reason i like drop zone is because its like a 15 minute walk from my home and as well i talked to the canadian soldiers to see what is good and bad

You haven't talked to enough soldiers then. Your experience is limited. Talk less about things you don't know, or make sure you're expressing your opinion, which is based on very limited experience.

I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Dropzone; rather I'm saying that you're not in any position to be making gear recommendations.

but still i am open to all types gear its just that i can access there store and i never saw any thing else except a bit of tactical tailor and military surplus

Yeah, we got that. So stop telling people what they should get. Dig?

yea

Smart move, Morb was about to turn green. ;)

Naw, just keeping shop as it were. No one else is doing it anymore...

It's the same debate that we see everywhere about trying to be P.C. which in the end turns into getting stomped by stupidity.

ASC is one of the last places I'd expect people to pull punches. Maybe most of us just aren't qualified enough to lay gear-related smackdown like Morbius.

man...that cadetpat is just marpat fabric with the canadian army cut.

its fugly.
