Of course everyone likes to complain about "we only get stuff from the lowest bidder", or "why do we even have this?". These things are negative and unproductive, but what about the positives? What I'm interested in are some of the pieces of fielded equipment currently in use that you feel are game changers in terms of enabling you Soldier on in whatever capacity that entails.
My personal favorites are:
1. The Medium Ruck
2. The M320 Grenade Launcher(super jealous of the Marines M32A1 though)
3. Crye Precision Pants

The ACOG. Above and beyond the fact that it makes weapons ranges less of a pain in the butt due to significantly lower bolo rates, it has made the average non-combat arms Soldier much more deadly and much less of a liability on the assymetric battlefield. Precision marksmanship with iron sights takes a lot of time and a lot of rounds. The addition of this one optical device greatly improved overall lethality.
