| FIELD KIT My Field Kit, incorporates everything that I need to stay out overnight (all of our events are at least 2 days long). WYVERN WEBBING SET This lightweight DPM web set only has 3 Utility Pouches and 2 single ammo pouches. Inside it I carry a 1 litre water bottle. Metal Mug (doubles as a kettle), with folding gas stove stowed inside. 1 can of (350ml) gas. Mess Tin (small only) with 2 meals inside it. Knife, Fork, Spoon (KFS) plus instant brew kit (bag of QT mixed with sugar). My personal kit (such as toothbrush, toilet roll, etc...) aswell as my head torch is also kept here. There is also a small pack with spares inside, known as BACK-UP KIT. It includes AA and AAA batteries, mantles for my tilley lamp, a box of matches, fuses for an AEG. Along with Mosquito Coils, boot laces, twine, gun tools, a lens cleaning spray and soft cloth. A Map Case attaches to the webbing yoke. Inside is a MAP of our site, small compass, pens, pencils and a Lofty Wiseman survival book (for emergences and First Aid.) A matching WYVERN poncho roll attaches to the rear of the web set, via 4 quick release clips. The poncho roll, greatly expands the carry potential of the web set. Inside is a PATT58 Down Sleeping bag, rolled up inside a Olive 3 zipped Breathable Bivie Bag, made by PHEONIX. Inside the Hood is my back-up gun; an ITHACA M37 Sawn Off Shotgun. I use this, as a handy gun for round camp or early morning toilet trips (etc...) |

| This complete webbing set, allows me to camp out overnight, with a small amount of food and water. I used this on the S.A.C. Pilgrimmage, with an extra day sack attached, to stay minimal. My other supplies and some luxury items, are carried in my other major piece of Load Bearing Equipment. This is a DPM PRC Radio Pack, as used by the British Army. The Pack itself holds my AEG and all of it's accessories. While on the back of it, there are 4 zips that are compatible with Day Sacks. Indeed, I use 2 X 20 litre days sacks attached to it. Inside these, I have my main supply of food and spare water. Along with a mini hammock (coverted with ropes and carabinas) plus my BASHA KIT. This includes a highly water resistant DPM Basha, 4 tent pegs, 6 Short and 4 Long Bungees. Another can of gas (350ml) is carried aswell as a compatible mini tilley lamp. A folding wood saw is packed in here with Spare Clothes. |

| Clipped onto the rear of the day sacks, is a soft ADVANTAGE "wetlands"pattern folding seat, that doubles as my mattress. My ghillie suit is sometimes inside it. The advantage of this PACK is that I can quickly unzip the day sacks and stash them. Leaving me a bag, that can carry my AEG, aswell as a PLATIPUS (drinking system). Indeed, the entire system has the bonus that it is very modular, allowing me to drop whatever I want and carry the rest no problem (reducing my load as required). Whereas a player with a BERGAN cannot do this, having to carry all 80 litres (if it's full or not). Once you have learnt a set way of packing your kit, this system allows you to locate something quickly and easily, without having to rummage around a large compartment, brimming with loads of gear. GAMING GEAR I carry a CAR-15 AEG (click here to see the loadout I use). Aswell as an APS2 MK2 SPORTER (click here to see it). My BANDOLIEER holds upto 4 X 190 mags for the CAR15, or APS mags and pellets + loading rod. (or combination of the 2) Aswell as my T6222 MOTOROLA radio. Making it easy to grab my gaming essentials, no matter what I am wearing, should I need to defend myself. My Ghille Hat (USMC cap with scrim) is attached to my combat jacket via a length of parachord, to the left lapel. Allowing it to hang out of the way, when I'm not wearing it. |
