In my hunt for a vintage LC-1 Rig for my personal pack build I stumbled across a very limited supply of these and decided to pick them up and offer them to the GBfans community. Now anyone who has perused these forums during my hunt you should know im a stalwart opposer to the price gouging that people have been doing on Ebay and other sales outlets… Due to the logistics involved in me getting them in hand I am asking $75.00 + shipping for each for them..which I believe to be fair as they are all in mint to near mint condition. I’ve taken a page out of Vincenzo’s book and dubbed them Peter, Ray, Egon and Winston. Peter is missing the waist strap so I will take $70.00 +shipping for that one rig. As I’m not 100% up to spec on current shipping rates I will handle shipping on a case by case basis and aquire a shipping estimate as needed then provide you with a PM with the final details and price with shipping. Domestic US shipping shouldn’t be too bad but for those of you who are outside of the US I will have to get a estimate done prior to agreeing to the sale. As always Customs fees and any details associated with customs are solely the buyers responsability.
if you scroll down you will see that Egon had previously been spoken for before I put the thread up. I went ahead and showed photos of it in case the buyer fell through due to issues with international shipping…because of this Egon is in pending payment status.
Just seen this, desperate for a lc1 frame and straps , one on eBay at the moment but price it too high. Fingers crossed you can get your hands on some more!
ya gotta be quick around here. these are becoming increasingly difficult to find at a reasonable price…if/when I get more in this thread will be updated
I guess I’m a little confused… What’s the difference in what’s being sold here and what I’m seeing available on ebay??? I’m new, but I’m just not seeing the difference.
It’s mostly the straps/kidney pad. The metal frames sold in the GBfans shop are similar to LC-1, but the straps are not. Same with most of the eBay frames. They’re all modern day “milspec” gear sold for practical use and not historical accuracy.
Yeah what I sold were actual full LC-1 Frames with LC-1 straps and kidney pads. Pretty much a spot on match for what was used in the first film. Jarius already pointed out the ALICE frame thread so i wont bore you with rambling =)
Living in Clarksville, Tennessee (which is butted up against Fort Campbelly, KY) I wonder how hard it would be to find this locally? We’ve got the 101st here and a bunch of other units. Airborne and such. Might peruse the military surplus stores and see if I can find stuff.
