Are these guys any good?

New Zealand Defence Force contracts for their pouches and vests.

Those contracts were issued on advice of soldiers experiences with the companys products.

They ship worldwide.

I just got me a BHI Cutaway vest for my upcoming deployment. Anybody here who have used one?

Does your armor fit? If not, it's pretty pointless.

[Leaper]

Yes it does. I checked it before I bought it.

This isn't ****ing ebay. Read the forum rules

My apologies

I hear it comes with life time immunity from being banned from mpnet too.

Do you get 2 for $200? I just want to know if theres a purchase cost/immunity ratio...

[boscoman]

If banning me will make you feel better than knock your socks off. I have apologized, yes I was wrong, but you continue on like my ex wife used too & just shows a level of immaturity.

[digrar]

What are you on about? The post after your apology has nothing to do with you or your post.

Good day, any suggestion for a good alternative to a LC2 belt ? I am currently using a british belt with metal buckle (sometimes called para belt) but I'd like to replace it with something closer to the LC2 belt I used to wear.

[Greek soldier]

Why don't you go for the original LC2 instead? There are scores of them in several surplus stores.

If you want an alternative to the one you were issued, search for Austrian Army's Pistol Belt, almost the same as the LC2. If you don't mind for the stamped eagle...

There's also the USMC-style LC2

[sgtfcm]

thank you greek soldier! the austrian belt looks nice, i can get them 1 hour driving from here in their country.
How about the USMC-style LC2? all those I've found on the net looks pretty cheap and possibly made for softair? Can you show me a real issue?

[Greek soldier]

If they don't have these belts in surplus stores, try searching on ebay. Most of them are sold with the suspenders, and also have the NSN number.

For instance:

Some manufacturers you can search include:

Tasmanian Tiger (Germany)
Tactical Tailor (USA)
Condor Tactical (USA)
Blackhawk Industries (USA)
BDS Tactical (USA)
Warrior Assault Systems (UK)
Templar Assault (UK)
Defcon5 (Italy)

Can't say which is better or not 'cos I haven't used them in combat operations. Members here you are far more experienced than me can give you a solid feedback. I chose the Tasmanian Tiger 'cos the mag pouches are compatible for G3A3-G3A4 mags.

Okay, I'm a big boy and I can look for myself, but it would be silly for me to have this resource available and not use it to ask...
Who has the cheapest one?

Were I a salesperson in this field, I could have been able to direct you, but I'm not. Thus, unless other members can help you, Google is your friend.
