AMAP III assault pack: The pack needs attachment straps so you can self access the pack without a team member helping. Straps like the Flatpack Piggyback Straps used by Haley strategic or the Recondite Strap Kit used by Defense mechanisms. Being able to access your bag yourself and put it back on without using bulky pack straps over bulky plate carrier straps is a game changer
@IronRabbit 11 ай бұрын
Yes please! The AMAP needs piggyback straps. The pack is already setup to receive them you just need to make the strap kit.
@Dakota_Steel 11 ай бұрын
I agree. The pack is 95% setup for it so it would be a missed opportunity not to take it the last 5%. It would definitely make the pack stand out in the marketplace, there are only a few packs that have this capability.

@Lean-Sixsigma 11 ай бұрын
@@rainbow_tactician It seems you do not know what piggyback straps are and how they work. Or you have never used them before, once you use them you will realize that it is the only way to go. Using backpack strap over plate carrier straps is a joke , the straps will always get in the way at a critical time when shouldering your rifle. And using a back panel you can never access your kit yourself you will always need someones help to access your panel. With piggyback straps you can shoulder your rifle and access you pack there is zero reason to not use them. In combat you must plan for all out comes and being able to get to your gear without compromising use of your rifle is important so the third option of piggyback straps in very important especially if you operate in a small team

Snigel-type one-sided unbuckling between amap and K0 for quick access to pack; micro map-like back panel combo for k0; lighter, more streamlined amap with edc look optional cover patches; new organizer for the amap with more flexible storage for slightly bigger stuff (some stuff is bulky and elastic too tight; size-adjstable magpouch with pincers so bigger mags cold potentially fit too; non-water absorbing material PC option; option to have minimalistic plate holder for for k0; customizable k-straps for packs, incl. micro maps (minimalism-padded combo i.e. remove padding for minimalism and packability if desired); a fully modular option enabling chest rig-PC combo with maximum customization.

I never understood the obsessions with what effectively are custom camo patterns. They were literally designed to work in one terrain type only. Hardly cost effective. Ranger Green and other monotone green colorations work fine in basically 9 out of 10 surroundings, especially when mixed in with some OD and FDE here and there. Works beautifully in the woods as well as in urban areas. There is a reason the IDF is outfitted like this. Why the Bundeswehr hasn't figured this out (and reverted to OD or RG) yet is a mystery to me. Ranger Green blends in and works just about anywhere and everywhere, leaving only the need for a one time investment in one set of equipment. In temperate climate zones we have no business in the desert, that leaves forests and urbanized areas only and hence just one set of equipment. Camo is just a pain in the neck. I always suggest getting rid of it.

A great new product would be a large ballistic west that also accepts plates, and that works great as a plate carrier. So ballistic 3a protection all around, maybe the new and thin SafeLife Defense panels, but the also a way to safely hold plates above that. This would appeal to a lot of police/swat teams that mostly face handgun threats and appreciate greater soft armor coverage while also having rifle protection (ideally from thin and light level3 or level 4 ICW plates). But vehicle turret gunners and grunts that mostly dig trenches against artillery shrapnel could also use it.
@texasranger24 11 ай бұрын
Since the K-Zero is your most compact and shooting/agility friendly carrier, could you also add different form factors? Like a dedicated carrier for shooters cut plates, so they don't wiggle around. And/ or add the two adjustment straps from the K19 back in, they were cool for both securely and tightly holding the plates and also distributing their weight.

As an infantrymen it’s very important to access assault pack on the go or even take it off completely on the the go. I love the k19, so what I did was bought a buckle strap adapter kit. I used the buckles on the shoulder straps of the k19 and the straps on the amap3 were the shoulder straps of the amap3 are located. Now I have the option of a quick release. This cost me an extra $20. Would of been nice if it had already came with this option from the start but either way love what they are doing at Agilite.

I personally like the K-ZERO for short time low gear mission. I also would still have a use for the K-19 for those missions that would take you out into the bush for longer periods of time where you will need to carry more gear and my need larger shields (plates). I love and Will need all your accessories and pouches and a substantial I-FAK. Also if I get stuck with a big belt gun the K-ZERO would be best.

Both have their respective places in the operational feild for quick donning and doffing i think the k19 wins along with long term wearability and comfort over the k zero, however that is not to discredit the comfort of the kzero but the k 19 clearly takes the cake there. The low profile and slickness of the kzero make it perfect for either covert protection like hiding it under jackets and hoodies or just being able to say do things like parachuteing with it and its all around perfectly designed for low profile and slimline loadouts. Both are amazing both have their place so is it really smart to compare them? You decide
@marcogigante6153 11 ай бұрын
it depends, I would use the k-zero in training or in situations that are not long lasting, on the contrary I would prefer the k-19 for situations that last longer, it also depends on the degree of tiredness or possibly on how much you have to load and much more.. .. I can't choose between the two right off the bat... I'd say evaluate the situation first
