From the recent Pat Rogers Carbine class at Camp Ares. Note that his hands, hat, carbine, and gear are all the same indescribable shade of gunk:D
someone needs to inform that guy its ok to be clean…
LOL Brother, you could always claim it is some form of field expedient urban camouflage:p At least your hat didn’t have “That Girl” across the back:D

If I didn’t know any better, I’d say I’m growing out of the back of Derek’s head.
“look at the size of the melon!..it has its own weather systeeem!”
It would appear that any courses of this sort I would have to travel out of state to. Unless Magpul has one of these shoot houses in their own back yard.
I would like to attend at least the “Basic course” I have comfort with my weapon (haven’t had to sleep with one in a long time) but I am more than sure I would feel a little clumsy and slow with regards to these courses.
With regards to the magazine harnesses and pouches I know you could find something for almost any purpose. Any suggestions if I would be buying from scratch for the express purposes of one of these courses. The last web gear I ever had was 782 late 80’s type stuff. Before all the evolution of purpose built items.
Wait till you see him after this course…
We have decided since Derrik is coming to this course that there will be only one drill in the course in order to pass…
Each shooter has to be able to shoot on the move from the 10 to the 3 while wearing his hat… If anyone can make it without vomiting, they pass and get an ACR and life time supply of head and shoulders…
Hey Marine,
We are working on sheduling courses in CO soon so keep an ey on the schedule from time to time.
As for gear for the purpose of these type of courses only, I would suggest a gun belt with a couple of kydex mag pouches for both pistol and carbine to keep it simple. Now if you wanted to take it to the next level and look for a like of Load bearing system well there are many in the gear threads on this forum that would fit the bill and not be to exspensive. here is an example…

And if you can shoot from the 25 to the 3, you get the 7.62 lower…
How about that Battlerifle upper too to go with it? Hell, I’ll wear that stinky rodient for the whole course for that!
Altha…geez, I grew up in Blountstown. Great to see that civilization has come to the Panhandle. “Gunk” attire has been fully fashionable there for a long time.
