80s/90s pouch question-silencer and BFG storage?

[spetsnazdave87]

Hey guys, question for the forum. What would be a period appropriate way of transporting my BFGs and suppressor? Late 80s, early 90s period.

Can't find ANYTHING online.

Thanks

Dave

Well, for starters, always leave it unprimed? Though I'm guessing you know that. Im sure its probably the same rules for transporting your ages, in a bag, out of sight, and for good reason?

I think he means transporting around the field.

Yeah sorry I've been in this game a while ben I'm sorted on the getting to and fro

To clarify, I'm looking for Nam/Alice/other methods of carrying a real steel beretta suppressor and a couple of BFGs.

Would nam era triple grenade pouches work?

Sorry! My bad. I knew yup been here a while, I just though transporting you might have meant safe to and fro carrying from home to skirmish that was legal and safe. My bad!

No problem.

bfg = alice smoke grenade pouch
supressor = depending on length you could get a magazine pouch from a alice holster or just pocket it in your bdu

or just karibiner the bfg to your webbing on the yoke

I can't find alice smoke pouches I was thinking of improvising and using a nam-style waterbottle pouch.

Might just stuff them in BDU pockets though. I'm not wearing armour so I've got easy access to a lot of pouches.

just attach it through the pin like they did in vietnam

[spetsnazdave87]

Re: 80s/90s pouch question-silencer and BFG storage?

because hanging a grenade from the pin can't possibly go wrong...

i'll try that out mate.

Will they not fit in the Grenade pouches on a LBV?

Or I have some M67 pouches that will take them (the shorter mag pouches).

[spetsnazdave87]

Re: 80s/90s pouch question-silencer and BFG storage?

They won't fit the LBV sadly, and I'm going for pre-LBV anyway

How much you want for the M67s? any pics?

i use this method and tuck the nade under the braces
2 spares i use viper nade pouches in OD around the back out of site (functional but look wrong i know)

then again i have been filling my butt pack with ball grenades of late
they never fall out due to the linning inside, i also carry a sweater in it to pad out and you can tuck nades in with ease

Not a bad plan, I don't want to have too much swinging about as I'll have bandoliers to carry...
