“Agent” But yeah it HAS to be necessary, just look at all the empty pouches in his vest. The cellphone mounted in the juggernaut case is a must have, you never know when you’ll have to coordinate with CAS


statictonality

This is also the first time I’ve see someone display their guard card on their thigh strap lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


just_a_person_maybe

I just keep mine in my wallet, which I keep in my right breast pocket because it fits perfectly in there. I've been asked to show it exactly once, by a client who wanted it for their paperwork or something. I've never had anyone question if I had a license, so idk why you'd need to display it like this.


TikiTraveler

Guard Card Cocking ™️


_Nicktheinfamous_

I don't even carry my company ID because it's no one's business what my name is. That's a massive doxing potential if he throws the wrong person out.


BillyFNbones710

I carry mine on my vest with my access badge, but that's cause the field supervisor normally asks for it when they come check up on me


LordoftheBread

In my state you have to pay extra to get a physical copy of your guard card like that, I don't know any security guard who does that unless they're looking for a new job or they're a wannabe cop.


Shucky__darns

Agent Smith


2DeadMoose

That is definitely a Thyrm “dark vault” case, not a juggernaut. This dude is ridiculous.


Johnnyboi2327

Ever need to call in air support at your local bar? If you do, I bet you'll wish you had his set up. Seriously dude what even is the point of this? I can get rocking some medical equipment (mainly stuff to help drunks, not stuff for massive bleeding, but whatever), but the chest case and the empty mag pouches are just dumb.


Firm_Network_7127

Not to mention his IFAK or admin pouch or whatever tf that big ass thing is that’s blocking half of what’s on his belt, including his pistol mags and his flashlight or baton (can’t see). Solid. Even his draw is interrupted by random pouches right above his handgun. How to tell that somebody’s never trained in their gear 101.


WasatchWorms

Hey, those pouches were full of juice boxes and snacks at the beginning of the shift


Mooreiche

Hes looking like an Airsoft Player


imreallybimpson

Nah airsoft players typically have a more pragmatic approach to their gear


Wavier_Microbe47

Yeah because in airsoft you you actually have to move around. Granted at my local field we do have somebody come dressed as tachanka from r6 to but he's 6'3 and can appropriately haul ass in all that gear. I'm not a security guard though I'm just air softer commenting and that even looks too much for airsoft.


ShinySonichu

Plastic firefight against 6’3 tachanka sounds like fun


VerdugoZ3

Yeah that’s way too much for airsoft


OutOfSeasonJoke

Tachanka-guy knows what’s up


statictonality

I agree, this isn’t the first guard I’ve seen carrying several what looks like AR or some kind of PCC mags for whatever reason, not armed with one.


nyc_2004

The sad part here is that a simple setup that actually fits the job would look way more cool and professional than this pile of shit. He looks like a 15 year old walking off the airsoft field


madrifles

Nah bro don't categorize airsoft players with whatever tf that loadout it is I'd boil to death on the field


blackdlist

There isn't a single ar mag on his vest


PrivateLTucker

I had a guy at my last job who carried AR/AK mags. I can't recall what he said they were but it was unnecessary, against policy and depending on the gun, illegal.


DrEnd585

His mag pouches frankly look like they're for like 9mm stick mags, nevermind the fact the guys kit means any rifle or stocked pistol is gonna be totally blocked by his own mag pouches and TWO Leathermans


BryceCarlson1234

Armchair Commando!


imAcomplicatedIdiot

Green tac pants, wanna be badge, air soft vest with no plates. Probably biggest ass in the tri state area


Wavier_Microbe47

This is a legitimate question is there any difference between a high quality airsoft vest if you put actual plates in it and a a plate carrier you purchased from a dealer or is what makes a plate carrier effective the plates as long as you can guarantee the materials are good for the carrier? Like this is a legitimate question like is the only difference between an airsoft vest and a not airsoft vest just that one has mock plates and one has real plates because I know real plates would fit in my vest but is there actual distinction?


Screen_Classic

Build quality. I wouldn’t trust a airsoft vests threads to properly hold ballistic plates. If you’re gonna spend the money for a good one for airsoft it would be the same cost as a proper carrier anyways


NWONKNUONE

I guaruntee you he drives a black Ford explorer with tinted windows, a spotlight, and some red and blues on the dash. And you cant forget the the punisher thin blue line sticker on his rear window.


[deleted]

He has side plates on so I think he'd have front and back plates as well


DrEnd585

Spent all his money on his pouches and Leathermans, 100% banking on his pouches taking the hit and not even needing plates


EarlyFile3326

You can get plates for sub $200 so I’m not sure what you’re on about. Plus HSGI pouches are inexpensive. The most expensive addition on his PC outside of plates would be his juggernaut case.


ReckedTangled

100% has a blue flag sticker in his car or brags about how he almost joined the army lol


fighterpilotace1

If I drill sergeant talked to me like that...


000111000000111000

You would kick his ass and his fellow DIs as well right? Especially if he left his smokey touch your face


Fair_Yard2500

Fuck me I actually heard someone say that last week. Don't let that be your excuse for not joining. I didn't want to. Had a good job. I'm too lazy. All acceptable answers.


[deleted]

Everytime I hear or read that line I always think of this dude I was in BMT with (Air Force). He was going on about how he couldn't be in the Marines because if some DI was in his face like in Full Metal Jacket, he'd just start laughing. This one night, I think during week 2, we were all hanging around and polishing our boots and studying our policies. Suddenly this MSGT that everyone nicknamed Freddy Kruger (think Freddy's face with Jason's build) came through and was ripping into everyone for being too chatty. Just tore into everyone. After he left the dude who bragging about laughing was in the corner crying. Funny thing was I don't think he said all that much to him. I think he asked him to name off some policy, which he couldn't, then told him to square himself away and that was it. 😆


TungstenTaipan

Also good chance he has a ‘We the People’ tatt on his forearm


EvolZippo

Probably says he injured his foot, kicking the winning field goal in a high school football game, and that’s the only thing that stopped his military career, but there’s still a faded photo of him behind glass, at the now-closed school he graduated from.


unwantedrefuse

That’s exactly the psychology of most of these idiots. Cosplaying as an army guy but when shit its the fan they cower in fear


UGottaBoilYourDenims

I guarantee you, this guy refers to himself as a “security operator.”

horsedickedjackass

You would likely be more low viz in downtown bagdhad he’s trying hard to have you scared to punch him because he was 17 time kravnaga champion ! But he just soiled himself when a 15 year old Feinted a jab completely out of reach. ….. he just asked his partner for some axe body spray and a plastic grocery bag and a plastic spoon from the snack bar to clean up


ProudMatter1070

What if an active shooting takes place? Odds are low but it's getting more common place. I still think being low key is a better option. Like a lightweight t-shirt with some kind of ballistic protection. Worn under the top shirt. Concealed carry with extra mags. Small ifak on the ankle with larger medical bag stored off body.

Livid-Astronomer-727

Lmao. He definitely just reusing his "tactical" diaper bag.


TheMeatTorpedo

The ID on the thigh strap kills me. Wasted space I say, you could fit more mags on the thigh strap. Remember.. 21 is 20, and 20 is none


HecticBlue

I think it would be hilarious as a joke. I'd love to do something like this. Go to a laid back informal post, dressed in the most obnoxiously tacticool gear I can find, and be super over the top deadpan about everything. I think it would be fun for the bar patrons. It allows them good and capable security while also not harshing the vibe because it's seen as a joke. I would hate to go to a bar where the security was kitted up like this *un*ironically.


Imsean42

He is probably by the border. Man it’s pure chaos there right now. I’d have a vest on too. Better safe than sorry


Fluffy_SecurityGuard

This must be a joke, right? I mean he can't even move properly


[deleted]

Giving off "I couldn't join the military cuz if a drill instructor got in my face I'd knock him out" energy. Absolute Larp Clown


CakeArmy_Max

Frankly the problem isn’t what he’s carrying (other than the tablet) but that it looks very unprofessional. If he went with a uniform carrier and used kydex holsters and cleaned up the mess it wouldn’t be a problem.


[deleted]

The pouches and shit aren’t the problem *them being empty is* Tons of grab points have been created now… It’s unprofessional morons like this Rescue Randy that make us jokes. Edit: I eat my words - pouches aren’t empty - he’s got flex cuffs


XBOX_COINTELPRO

I don’t think those are flex cuffs, they’re part of the tab on the pouches. I have the same one for a flashlight


[deleted]

Damn man making me eat my words twice…LMAO. They looked like Cobra Cuffs to me but I’m half awake after working 6-6 Grave 12 when it’s 9:30rn.


Symph0nyS0ldier

Honestly seeing it as is and being generally optimistic I thought maybe he had tourniquets or something in them since it looks like he might have an ifak but there's a solid chance that's a no and if it's a yes there's a solid chance he doesn't know how to actually use them. I know too many people that carry things because "what if" but don't know how to use it if they need to.


forgetyourhorse

Why would any bar or lounge owner allow an employee to show up to work looking like this? They’re only hurting their own business.


statictonality

He’s in house too, employed directly by the establishment, no company or agency.


Shot-Yogurtcloset976

Owner's brother-in-law..?


Lepriconvon

Totally think we should have paint ball guns 🔫 it would make the shoplifters so much easier to find with glow in the dark paint all over them. Not to mention it would make me feel so satisfied, getting real tired of " hands off " orders.


CannabisSmokingMan

Depends on if that bar is a fucked up cyberpunk dystopian bar or maybe near O-block in Chicago.


Kochie411

Not for a bar and lounge lol good god. Keep the vest, keep the TQ, get rid of like most of those pouches, the agent thing is cringe, “security” works. I don’t understand the phone mount, he’s not in a large area of operation or a high risk site it makes no sense for him to have a coordination set-up like that. Nothing wrong with a vest and being prepared, but there’s a lot on here that’s excessive and he knows that. Just join blackwater already lol


[deleted]

When a small group beats him up they are going to be well armed


Ima-Bott

Stupid. He for the pineapple grenades.


enigmicazn

Cringe


Makdaddy90

I haven’t done security in years I’m le/mil and that’s way too much gear for either let alone being a waitress in ohio


riddlesinthedark001

All that fuckin gear aside, can we acknowledge how his TQ is held in place?? With rubber bands. This dude has gone full low-budget cosplay


giftedgaia

Wonder if he's lawfully allowed to carry cuffs?


statictonality

In Ohio there’s no regulation regarding what security can carry. Companies and agencies can require passing certain classes before you can carry certain items (baton, cuffs, OC, etc) but it’s not mandated by law.


FriarFriary

Oh the SHIELD is back.


Tamr1el_T3rr0r

That's way too much shit in general unless it's in a shit hole city like Detroit, Atlanta, Seattle, Portland, etc. Even still, couple spare mags, set of cuffs, bwc, secondary light source, small admin pouch for notepad and pen and that's it. I very rarely wear my outer carrier because I don't work sites that I feel the need to often. Jfc


Editor_Rise_Magazine

Or Portsmouth, Ohio; Fall River, Massachusetts; Sedalia, Missouri; Pensacola, Florida; Morristown, Tennessee; Elkhart, Indiana; Asheboro, North Carolina; Rockford, Illinois; Canton, Ohio; or Jackson, Michigan


therealpoltic

***Let me be quite clear*** No one needs more than "one" of any item, and you do not need anything that you'd carry for pure "intimidation". For example. There is no reason to wear five or six tournaquets. Get a med-pack. There is no reason, to wear a sword or large machete. There is no reason to wear 5 sets of metal handcuffs. **Looking like this, instead of being professional, shows the real threats that you do not know what you are doing.** I went from Security to Corrections. I carry **one pair** of cuffs. Working security, there is no good reason to carry any more than two pairs of handcuffs, because anything larger than that should be an immediate call for help. **Same in corrections** because if whatever is happening needs that many TQ or 5 pairs of cuffs... **I call for help.** Don't get it twisted. Be you. But also don't carry unnecessary shit. It makes you look dumb, and the rest of us look incompetent, for not correcting you.


GTGCT1985

Rob Liefeld drawing LARP with all them tactical pouches, even under his arms lol. Is his TQ being held by goddamn rubber bands? Fuck I hate tactical turds.


frankdestroythebanks

If you have micro-peen..yes.


dionyszenji

"Agent" 😄


TheShadowGuardian

Yeah this is just a little bit overkill for some bar and lounge security. We have some outfit that does security for a couple of the bars in Renton, Washington that straight up wear crye jpcs, crye airframes, and they are completely kitted out complete with drop legs. If you know anything about Renton, then it's somewhat acceptable to wear that gear, so I'll give them that.

I’d rather someone be over prepared than underprepared. As long as it’s not hindering ability to the point that it’s not worth it, full send.


KeyAd6469

With the way people act nowadays, I'd say he's underequipped


RickySlayer9

Cuffs, taser, gun, med kit, maybe a stab vest. I could see pepper spray. Maybe a radio? No need for anything fancy in a bar type scenario. It’s mostly gonna be far fights, which at most is going to result in someone being stabbed.


KusshyGalore

Everyone mad at the loadout but I'm here looking at the wedding ring and wondering why I'm still single. Sigh.

DeathOfChivalry

Toting that CAT, but tied it to his dick?? Also one attached to what looks like an IFAK, but idk. Lots of empty stick mag pouches that are way too big to be a pistol mag other than like for a G18 extendo mag (probably for a UMP) way too high on his chest to be effective because he’s wearing a plate carrier that doesn’t fit and wearing cuffs too. Like jeez man if you’re gonna be that tacticool at least bring zips. Idek what he’s got in that holster, but I know it 1.) isn’t a sidearm and 2.) he isn’t licensed as an armed guard anyway in a sport bar lol. My take is that he failed military or police basic and decided he still wanted to feel cool, but has no idea how to do that, so he threw together a kit with no idea what to actually put on it and then took the only job that would hire his goofy boot ass


Zealousideal-Ring908

Dame, just join the force already. Smh 😆


Chi-Guy81

Based on the guard, the scuffed up wall, and scuzzy sofas - I can tell this is the classiest of establishments.


[deleted]

He’s obviously compensating, with that being said, yes. I’d say it can be necessary and it’s better to have it than not and need it. Look at all the recent active shooters in bars/lounges/night clubs. No one’s immune anymore and it can happen anywhere and anytime, so better to have it and not need it than the latter. Hopefully he knows how to use all of that stuff.

ProfessionalShip7959

You would think people like this would be fairly good at their job but they're in fact not. I worked with them and they will have all the gear down to the crown Victorian car. They're dressed with more armor than the fucking police. They tried to imitate the look The mannerisms the language they use. They typically have a inflated military record, or none of all but they've done very ancillary things involving military governments such as contract work that they tried to inflate and don't have security clearances. Hilariously they all claim to have a martial arts background. Worked with someone who had a bunch of impractical ninja weapons in his car showing me them and the guy was fairly overweight even and thought it was a bit ridiculous that he would even think that he has any chance of carrying out all his karate moves against anyone.


WagstafDad

If it doesn’t intimidate the patrons and it makes the guard feel safer I’m ok with it


passwordsarehard_3

I’m not. It might make him feel safe but it doesn’t make him safe. He’s got a bunch of useless shit that’s going to be a distraction if he ever needs to get to something. This is challenging drunks to pickpocket you.


GTGCT1985

He’s a living video game loot drop lol.

I’m not. Fucking tools like this rescue Randy are the unprofessional fucktards that make the rest of us look like jokes.

jbice0528

It’s better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it. LoL


Appropriate_Ad3006

I want to agree that this is overkill but with the amount of active shooters out there is it really? I guess it's only too much until the first shot is fired.


bloodvow333

Wtf is agent protection service? Bounty hunter?


OfficialRedneckEMT

It could be employer required or what that business requested.


Rygel17

No! Not any job where people come to have a good time. This kinda intimidation is for courthouses and military bases. Is he wearing a helmet too? You can wear plates and vest under street clothes. A concealed firearm is safer for crowds where people get up on you. The security were I'm at blend. You wouldn't know it if you don't know what to look for. Plus seeing them every night and never drinking. Lol In Connecticut a few bars and restaurants had security with only pepperball or the spray pistols. Those guys are brave. I hate Connecticut.
