1961A integration
 

Hey guys, I want to integrate (using buckles and nylon) a 1961A onto a plate carrier of sorts, but I'm wondering which carrier would be most appropriate. I'm thinking either a CIRAS, HUGGER, or an MBSS with cummerbund. Any help and suggestions would be awesome.

CIRAS is too bulky to add a chest rig on top. With the choices you said, a Hugger would be your best bet. You really want a sleek carrier to do that.

Well than besides the hugger, what other options do I have?

I'm more curious why you want to incorporate the 1961A onto an armor carrier? The 1961A will work flawlessly over top of a paca or mayflower AC.

Thats my primary inspiration. Btw, that guy always has great stuff for sale.

Here was what my old Hugger / LBT1964a combo looked like (sorry bad pics, they are old):

Without the 1964a, the straps are made by Veltye for their Hugger system

Everything attacked (Note it was actually quite easy to get mags out withe the M203 pouch on top)

Sexy combo.

I thought ciras/lbt was a no-go?

I just said that I do not believe it's the best option. But if that's what you want, go ahead.

Thats how you do it right.
I miss that Gear-Do Bastard.

That look bulky. I run a backpack with my RRV. At least that way, I can ditch the pack to get in position confortably.
If I want a camelback, I can put it in the backpack and route the hose trough the antena port of the bag.

Can anyone with a LBT 1961a (or pantac/flyye replica) tell me if:

A USGI 1qt canteen and/or 1L widemouth nalgene fits inside either the side utility pouch and/or the radio pouch behind it?

Thanks...

hey matt get on msn! yeah it will fit the canteen....and yoda.

To answer my own question I recieved my Flyee LBT 1961a 1st gen replica and it does not fit a USGI canteen at all but does fit a 1L widemouth nalgene in the radio pocket behind the utility pouch.
