INTEGRATING POUCH ATTACHMENT LADDER
SYSTEM AND MOLLE VEST
WARNING: Suitable anchor points must be used as outlined below.
The LP is intended to be secured to a MOLLE vest using the provided
buckles. The attachment points secure the LP to the front and back of the
MOLLE vest.
The female buckle is designed to mount to the MOLLE vest allowing easy
removal of the LP to reconfigure for different mission profiles and allow
proper operation of breakaway vests. Ensure the attachment points are
accessible, do not interfere with other mounted equipment, and provide a
secure fit ensuring the LP is attached as close to the torso as possible.
1. Lay the MOLLE vest down on a clean flat surface with the back of the
vest facing up.
2. Lift up the emergency extraction strap or other anchor point on the
back of the vest. Loop the back attachment of the MD3196 LP around
the extraction strap or, if no extraction strap is available, around the
PALS webbing (Figure 28).
3. Use the buckle to secure and tighten the back attachment strap. The
collar of the LP should be located near the neckline (Figure 29).
4. With the LP attached, turn the vest over and lay it flat, with the front
of the vest facing up.
5. Position the two front lobes of the LP perpendicular to the webbing
across the vest (Figure 30).
WARNING: For optimal flotation, the LP must be secured tightly
against the vest.
6. On the left-hand side of the vest, feed the female buckle attachment
webbing under a row of Pouch Attachment Ladder System (PALS)
webbing.
7. Insert the female buckle under the upper row of vest webbing
(Figure 31A).
