LBT-1961AF Chest Rig, Gen.1, OD Green, 2002 Buckles, No Labels

Very similar to the AWS Strike Vest in terms of layout and construction, but definitely loaded with lots of little force multipliers and creature comforts that make this rig more contemporary despite being a 20+ year-old design at this point.

More capacity for mags, an 'okay' map pocket, and lots of additional pouches really push the format to its limit for the overall size. If one were to make a swiftclip-able/PC placard-style version of this design, it would not be out of place in the modern age.

The outer radio pockets each have a generously-sized utility pocket, which have a removable elastic 'lid' to use as a dump pouch as well as a small frag grenade pocket on the inner sides.

The rig has four double M4 mag pouches (holding 8 mags total in the dedicated pouches) and a double pistol pouch that can either hold two double stack or four single stack mags. Also good for holding multitools.

The 'AF' in the designation refers to 'Air Force' as this variation of the LBT-1961 was designed with three dedicated pockets for MS2000 Strobes for CCT guys to mark landing strips.

Also notice how the flaps are sewn with a box stitch to hold the velcro in place - later generations of these rigs would sew the flap velcro with a third horizontal line rather than an 'X' shape.

Inside the map pocket, there's an 'envelope'/EDC style holster that simply velcro's in place. An extended 'wing' off the leading edge of the holster holds one or two extra mags.

Honestly, this is probably the least usable feature on this rig given how awkward it is to access. Still neat that it was included all the same.

The H-Harness, while simple, was revolutionary for the time and elements of which like the velcro-adjustable rear cross-strap can still be observed with modern chest rig designs. The cable management flaps aren't spectacular, but it's good that they're there.

Note how the rear ends of the shoulder pads are 'squared' and simply terminate to 1" webbing, rather than folding off to the sides - this is another one of the ways you identify these as Gen.1 rigs.

Copious amounts of drain grommets on all the pouches.

It's very jarring to notice the difference in pricing for these rigs depending on the color you have - for instance, the 'pinky tan' versions of these oldschool rigs were used extensively by Navy Seals and AFSOC and currently go for several thousand dollars when they pop up.

But because this one is OD, and almost nobody has been seen using them, they're only worth about $300 at most and I actually ended up trading a helmet for mine lol.

All the gear I want lately is either light to medium green or medium grey. I guess the Germans were on to something.

@bureau-of-mines' MarColMar CETME L with AWS Padded Sling/ITW MASH Clip and Aimpoint CompC 4 MOA with (replica) Wilcox Mount

This particular rifle with its small, welded top rail and massive angular rear sight has always kinda been a strange gun to try and set up with an optic, as nothing we've had so far really quite fits the lines and aesthetic all that well.

This setup, however I'm actually fairly pleased with. I used to have that CompC/Wilcox Mount Combo on my Colt LE6920 M4gery, but I've reverted that back to detach carry handle config, and since I stole his C-More for a pistol build I'm working on, I thought he needed this Aimpoint more than I do.

I'm sure there are other optics that would look just nice as if not nicer on this rifle, but we don't own any of them and for now, this is a clean and simple little setup.

Past Lives by L.S Dunes

[so-what-then]

I see a lot of defenses of Alicent Hightower on here, and while I can understand why people find her more sympathetic than Rhaenyra (since she started as a reluctant young bride), she's not a well written character either.

Writers really missed an opportunity to make her like Cersei: A character who's endured perceived unfairness most of her life, and develops an inferiority/superiority complex about it to the point that she can't see past her own bitterness. Alicent has this whole I'm Such A Martyr attitude. She's not entirely wrong to feel this way, just like Cersei is not wrong to feel slighted because of her gender. But GOT was careful to both dignify Cersei's feelings to an extent while also portraying them as a flaw that caused her to attribute every ill to other's stupidity or prejudices - instead of her own missteps and vanity.

HotD writers, on the other hand, always side with Alicent's perspective as the objective truth. We're supposed to agree with her even as the war grows worse due to Alicent's lack of decisiveness and her preoccupation with maintaining personal purity. Every time she lectures a man about his vanity, we're supposed to say "Yas Queen", even though they are the ones strategizing for the betterment of the realm.

It’s hard to defend Alicent without defending the writing.

The electricity in my fingertips that travels through my chest like a fatal lightning strike. The fire in my face when I hear you laughing at my touch. The earthquake in my heart when I feel you struggle against my hands, in my arms.

I miss it, I need it. I need to tickle you.
