    LOWA Urban Desert MPS boots?

    I'm overseas right now using the issued tan Boulets.  The boots really aren't that bad to begin with, they fit and feel exactly like MKIV's, except they're hotter, which really doesn't make sense?  Since arriving I've cut out the mesh liner on the boot uppers, and bored out the ventilation holes...

    ICE Tactical Direct Action Rig?

    alright apparently its hard a fck to get a straight answer out of anyone these days... Ya I posted on the other forum without posting in their other thing first (but who actually reads the into letter or whatever they send to you regarding the rules of their forum).  All I want to know is about...

    ICE Tactical Direct Action Rig?

    Does anyone here have experience with the Direct Action Rig from Ice Tactical??  I'm looking into purchasing one of these along with their Padded Yoke.  I've heard good things about their molle pouches etc. but nothing about this rig.  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Converse Desert Boot

    http://www.lapolicegear.com/co9melaupdet.html I'm thinking of purchasing the boot from the above link.  In case the link doesn't work it's the Converse 8" Men's Lace Up Desert Tan Boot.  Does anyone here have any experience with them.  Do they fit the same as a running shoe? ie. I wear a size 9...

    How long did you give it some thought before enlisting?

    always been in the back of my mind as an option, then started thinking about it more seriously during spring of this year.  Figured I may as well apply seeing as how the app process can take quit a while (bout 5-6 months for me), so still plenty of time to change my mind.....Didnt change my...

    Sign longer contract to start as Cpl?

    In response to graymatters post, I don't have alot of posts here because most questions I could've/would've asked have already been answered at some point.  You seem to think that money is my only concern, you couldn't be more wrong.  I left a very well paying job (80k in the first 6 months of...

    Sign longer contract to start as Cpl?

    Very valid point.  Well I've gotten some good advice here as well as some bad; I'm going to follow through and go Reg Force, I know the longer I sit here behind this computer the less likely it is going to happen, too much second guessing will take place and I'll wind up talking myself out of...

    Sign longer contract to start as Cpl?

    It's not at all cause I'm too busy, it's cause I just started my new job and I don't feel comfortable making personal calls yet, simple as that, I wanna put as much time into learning the people and the job itself. Do recruits or untrained privates make less money than a PteT?  Or is it all the...

    Sign longer contract to start as Cpl?

    yes this is true.  The CFRC's hours of operation just don't coincide with my schedule all that well but nevertheless I will call them as soon as I'm humanly able to.  Until then I'll be relying on Army.ca for help as it is a wealth of info.  If I speak with a recruiter I'm only getting one...

    Sign longer contract to start as Cpl?

    aviator you're not being very fuckin useful here, so go use your talents elsewhere. I've done my research and am well aware that what I want isn't necessarily what I will get.  If someone would like to give me the quarter and ration expenses for each CFB that would be great and I would truly...
