everything you got is great,
2 things though,

1.) that backpack from the pick looks quite big, now is that for transport? cause it looks like it would be a bitch to lug that around

2.) be VERY careful with that mask, the parts are put together horribly. you will have to take the mask apart and put it back together, and that inside foam shit has to be re-glued, overall it needs to be re-enforced

Looks good

i got that mask specifically because it is cheap and it comes apart, i only need the bottom half of it for 3 months(18 in june) so i don't expect to use it much, i bought it mainly for the goggles. and if you've seen the backpack i tote around at school you'd think that pack is tiny, my school bag weighs 40-45 lbs easy, i'm not gonna have any problems being johnny on the spot with the ammo pack. and we probably won't have it filled all the way anyways.

true, and even if its to bulky, u could just use it to transport all of your stuff

Typically a pack isnt worn in combat. Why it is still good to have is to transport your stuff to the game. On top of that its money to have during long events. You can pack it full of stuff you will need for the day and bring it to the FOB and leave it there as during long ops its typically a hike to the FOB from the parking area. Events like Baghdad will not let you go back to the parking area at all during the day.

You will always find a good use for a pack.

i figured i would put some extra mags and ammo in there and carry it with me, the weight isn't gonna be a problem i'm strong like bull :p

of course i'm gonna try and keep it from bulging too much and making me a larger target than i already am, but if i ever end up getting a SAW i can just stick to the back as support while the rest of the team pushes ahead anyways.

on a happier note, i just got the UPS confirmation that my m4 just got shipped, it's supposed to be here by friday according to UPS. i'm fuckin pumped.

the pack is actually not big at all, it's about the same size as my pillow...
