I picked up a new edc backpack to replace my TT Removable Operator. It's a Grey Ghost Gear Throwback.

It's basically the same pack but with all the tactical bits removed making it more "grey man" I guess. They also added a front pocket and velcro inside the main pocket. I don't need the webbing and "Removable Operator" features but I really can use the front pocket and velcro panel.

I also picked up one of those tough water proof rubber/plastic zipper pouchs by 5.11. I'm hoping it will fit in the hydration area of the pack and give me another place to stick a few items.

Got some 5.11 AK mag pouches.

Got some Korean AK mags.

Got some Bison Cobra buckle belts.

I'm really liking this style of belt. These are a lighter build and not near as stiff as the ESS riggers belts that I picked up a while back. Maybe a little more edc ccw friendly when it comes to sitting down and getting in a vehicle. The plus with the stiffer belt is that it stays exactly the same. And with the cobra buckle I can take the pants off and put them back on without anything changing. So I will have to see which belts I prefer.

Ray, the "fighting Bowies" generally have a short section of wide blade and a longer section of a narrower rakish design. It makes the knife lighter and quicker to handle. wink But you ARE correct in that all Bowies can be used for fighting.

Nah, I just came across some good deals on that stuff.

The pack and the belts are just me trying to refine /develop a real edc system. As a fairly low maintenance type it apparently takes a global pandemic for me to think I need anything more than what I can put on my belt and stick in my pockets.

Stupid food and water making me soft! Next thing you know I can't leave home without the baby wipes!

That is why I carry my Maxped Fatboy or jumbo everywhere, a d keep a GHB in whichever vehicle we are in. Why just last week I had some ahem, stomach problems. There wasn’t any TP in the restroom. NO PROBLEM, I just rummaged around in my “Man Bag”, dug out some “baby wipes” and finished the job. grin

Always prepared, never surrender.

Randy and Ray, here's a few pics showing the difference in the Bowies:

There is a Fallkniven, GTI, Colt, and Busse Battle Pappy in the pics. I have also seen a "fighting Bowie" called a "Kentucky Bowie" in the Crazy Crow Trading Post catalog.
