And also if you further read I stated that these are set up independent of and compliment each other. The purpose of a belt is to reposition weight from shoulders to hips. Bulky, yes, and when I run these together I'll use 20 rounders on the belt. For the most part it will be belt, but if I want to run one or the other separate I can due to how this is set up. As far as SHTF or HD, I have no delusions of using this as that kind of set up.
For right now, I've got a lot of thought into how I have this set up, the whole 1st line, 2nd line train of thought and it works for me. But that's the beauty of using too much crap in training, you figure out what works and what doesn't. The GP pouches are about the only thing on there that may come off though. As far as the dropleg switching out to a Kydex, I've thought about it, but with me using pistol right handed and rifle left I draw primary mags with right hand,a Kydex holster will take away from that ability.
But I do appreciate the criticism.
I wore three double decker TACOs on my Velocity OUB for a pistol/carbine class. They worked great but I didn't use that third pouch as much as I thought I would. I'm taking a class with vehicles next month so I put the belt on and looked in the mirror - I felt huge, especially when I tried to stand in the doorway. I think it'll be the typical single primary and double secondary setup for my belt from now on. I've got pockets that hold AR mags well (VERTX pants) and my APC for other stuff, but there's no way I want to be climbing through vehicles or even walking through doors with the setup that I had.
