  7. Hi Wolfriverjoe  is there a chance you could post a pick of the sos handle you have  and if its what i am after would you be interested in selling it   , not to sure what the static line looked like  if you could post a pick off the one you have i could see if it might be what i am after . the picks are of the harness that i have . interested in anything ells you may have that fits this rig  , deployment bags ect  

    thanks Twodogs

  8. Hi Skybytch  the cutaway ripcord for this harness is not the same as the ones you find on civi jump rigs , this ripcord is combined , it has the cut away for the three rings but it allso has the steal ripcord that opens the reserve pack as well , when pulled it does the two actions all in one pull , cuts away the main and opens the reserve container , i can get the risers but i would like to keep as it was made , this rig was use and still is in use by the defence department 


  9. hi there   is there any one on here that may be able to help me with some information on the GQ360 low level static line parachute . i have just got hold off a new unused harness but its missing the risers , the cutaway ripcord and the static line . i dont intend to jump this rig i just want it for my collection that i have and just want it to look complete  . would any  one on here know  where i maybe able to find said items   , i have found some risers on ebay  but they dont post Australia for some reason . any help would be great  , 


  10. hi there , i am on the lookout for some t10 round parachutes , i would like a full harness and pack if i can , very hard to get them in Australia as the army dont sell them to the public over here , a full rig would be good but just the parachutes would be fine , i have a number off harness sets and just need some parachutes

  11. is there any where in Australia that will let you jump a static line military round , its on my bucket list , i have a number off jump rigs inmy collection and two are still air worthy , i havnt jumped in a while but would like to try it once .
