Title: Web Gear sets
Post by: maverik on November 20, 2008, 03:12:45 AM
Does anyone know where I can get ALICE web gear sets? If so do you know where I can get them in a mass order with pouches? Or at least cheaply?

Cheap: Used (or possibly new) on Ebay.

Cheapish (But New!): www.cheaperthandirt.com (http://www.cheaperthandirt.com) They probably have everything you need. Also lots of MOLLE stuff if you want to move into the 21st Century with your gear..

I would also encourage a trip to your local Army/Navy Surplus store, they will also probably have what you need.

There isn't really any 'right' way to set up web gear, just do what works for you.

If you plan on doing lots of UDF, then I would not put anything on the back (so you can sit comfortably in a vehicle.), I would also recommend having at least one canteen in easy reach, other than that, it is just trial and error to figure out what you like.
