    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Hmmmm, not sure about the Vison-X pods. They are growing on me though. Wife, not so much. She advocated moving them to the opening in the winch bumper on either side of the lic plate. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Well that you take the hard road is fairly well known! MAR? Izzy will expect you. I'm happy to include you in pulled pork (fri) and potential low country boil (sat) #'s. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    I know...call me crazy for saying a $2.5k tent and done is the easy way out! :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    While interesting, I think for the ease of time-and relatively speaking money-I'd put a Baroud on top and spend the time saved out with the truck. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Lr3 aftermarket head unit.

    It is not easy with the HK stereos that the vast vast majority of NAS spec trucks have, that's for sure. Far easier on the base spec. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Vehicle 1st Aid Kit, what am I missing?

    Much has been covered already but I didn't notice SAM splint on there (i.e. the 36"x4.5" size that is good for the arm, or as a hasty c collar). Amazon is where I get most of my stuff, but after going through Wilderness First Aid (WFA) with MEDIC SOLO I'd be remiss if I didn't point out their...

    Wilderness First Aid Course

    Why not the intermediate (at least in terms of SOLO) Wilderness First Responder? (WFR). ~9 days vice 2, obviously more expensive, but a lot more time getting hands on and going a bit further. I got the sense that WEMT, as noted by Herbie, is a significant chunk of time/$ based off our...

    Lr3 aftermarket head unit.

    I wonder how that interfaces with the OE system. Wasn't clear in my quick scan.

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Adam- That was our calculus too. I knew plenty of purists would be upset that a 97 XD was being used like that, but also am cognizant that the truck went for sale for a song and nobody jumped on it to save her when it was listed, nor when I was parting her (many parts went to other XD owners...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    It was a real XD; was a long way from saving long before it ended up on its side. I bought it several years ago for the rack-paid basically what an SD low rack is worth for the whole truck (first indication of condition). Rust throughout the entire truck was chronic. Drivetrain was decimated...

    Baby Glock

    Indeed. I won't quibble that the G26 is more concealable than the G19; nor my contention that the G19 is inherently more accurate in application (and far easier to train with). Since the OP has a G26, that's moot. My comment was more directed toward the OP picking up another pistol that is...

    Wilderness First Aid Course

    Just took WFA by MEDIC SOLO, hosted by Twin Mountain Off-road in WV. Phenomenal class, will be taking WFR at some point as a follow on for sure. Well worth the time/$. We'd engaged the instructor to facilitate the final exercise being based on a vehicle rollover, using Twin Mountain's...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    As alluded previously, this weekend my wife, daughter, and I joined with other like minded folks to attend a Wilderness First Aid course instructed by MEDIC SOLO (https://www.solowfa.com/). Two days of class that essentially takes basic first aid across a wide spectrum and makes it especially...

    NAS LR3 build with an overseas twist

    Trust me...I'm going to find a reason to cross strap. A few shots from the weekend at Twin Mountain attending the MEDIC SOLO Wilderness First Aid course which was phenomenal. More to follow when the course instructor posts pics, we got a little busy during the best parts so I don't have...

    Baby Glock

    I'd go with the 19 for commonality of ammo and mags as you go from 19->26. G19 is my go to.

    Baby Glock

    Depending on the size of your hands you may want to get yourself some grip extensions (Pearce or some other alternative, all keeping in mind CA capacity laws). You may find the 26 works well for conceal...but is not all that pleasant to shoot in comparison to a G19. That is my experience from...
