High Threat Concealment....Do want
I was going through the pages at SSD and found this little
gem. What does the hive mind think of this. Worthy of my paycheck or better kit is available.
Sorry If dupe..

just buy kydex from whoever you want and build your own belt.
Will cost less.
Try TCB firearms they are on par with Raven and a lot less expensive.
What do you want it for?
It is an entire warbelt setup. It can be reconfigured for EDC if need be. Plus it has a certain cool factor. Ive been toying with a warbelt setup as I am used to running PC only. For a training/ class or duty setup this meets my needs and has everything in one package.
At first I thought that it came with a belt but after looking more closely I saw that all of the pouches have been screwed together. (Unless I'm looking at that wrong) You would still need a belt and I wouldn't want all of the pouches to be attached to one another even with a belt. Doesn't look too comfortable. (Maybe that was just for effect)
I just did some quick research and found:
DSGArms kydex holster - $69.00
DSGArms kydex pistol mag pouch - $49.00
2 DSGArms m4 mag pouches - $29.00 each
Bladetech kydex radio pouch - $39.00
ATS small blow out kit (@ SKD) - $47.45
Total $262.45
This was just a quick search. I chose DSG for most of it because I know it's good gear, it's in stock and they have good prices. I have a Bladetech radio pouch for my duty belt and it's good stuff. (They do have a long build time, though). I didn't look real hard for the blow out kit, I just went to SKD. I did find one that that the quick removal feature like the one in your link. You could probably find some of this stuff cheaper if you looked harder. You could pick up a radio pouch probably cheaper and quicker if you got it in nylon.
The stuff you posted might be excellent gear but I think you could do better by shopping around.
Having all the kydex pouches bolted together looks like it would be uncomfortable, add more bulk than necessary, decrease mobility and make it a huge hassle to detach, or rearrange items.

Like others have said, you could probably do the same thing for less money by putting a set up like this together your self. My low pro kit when I worked down range was similar minus the holster and radio pouch.
If you are still going to do the BESF thing, you will have no use for this.

I had no intention of taking this to BESF. Too bulky to carry day in and day out. I thought it would be interesting to use during a training class. BESF says i can bring my own kit. Im taking my TT pc and soe othe assorted stuff.
Looks kind if gimicky. You will have to attach it to a belt and then it would seem to be pretty stiff to move around in all attached together like that.
I built a better belt than that for half the price.

Seems like its designed by the Redundant Office of Government Redundancy. It looks as inflexible as a corpse in rigor.
James just added a pretty decent third party gear review on his site and you can see the setup being used in action. A bunch of guys, including myself, used his stuff in Afghanistan while he was still developing these products in his room. It's good stuff and pretty damn concealable for the amount of gear that you're carrying around. One of the downsides is that it is a bit of a pain to thread through your belt, especially if you wear a thick leather gun belt like I do. I've learned to attach the gear to my trousers prior to putting my pants on, and I would wear those pants for a few days at a time without removing the gear.
This setup enabled us to carry our sidearm, radio, pistol mags, m4 mags, and our blow out kit underneath suit jackets or loose shirts without looking totally conspicuous. You can configure the gear to your mission needs and he'll do custom jobs. This gear was designed for guys doing mainly low pro stuff in non permissible environments. James is also a great guy, has tons of experience doing low profile stuff, and runs his company with top notch customer service. My advice is to contact him with any specific questions. I support his company because he's a good friend and I know it works downrange. Sure there's other stuff out there, the way I look at it is HTC is just another way to skin that cat (or camel

).

Kinda cool but as others have said I would probably just piece it together on a good belt.
That's got to be uncomfortable to sit in.
