  1. Actually, according to PIA, the Falcon 235 is made after 1993 so the volume is 516
  2. I believe the laser 7r is 550 and the falcon 235 is 566
  3. Riggers... Will a Laser 7R date of make 1997 and a Falcon 235 (DOM 98...ish I think) fit in a Mirage M7?
  4. Ok, will flying this thing belly to earth (occasional flip)kill me assuming it is in good condition? It is a 1993 Vector II. It was updated for BOC deployment All of the measurements fit me as is. It holds the right size canopies for my size at the 30 jump(not there yet), always stand-up landing mark. Is it worth setting up escrow with a rigger or should I run as fast as I can in the other direction? I'm looking for cheap options for my first ~100 jumps. I am 225 if that makes a difference in putting stress on an old container.
  5. thanks to those that posted so quickly. I have asked a few more questions of the seller. It is a 17 inch harness, and I need a 20. Is having it resized a good option if I can get the seller to come down on the price? It can hold a 230 main and has a 249 reserve in it already. I am 220 without gear. Assuming I can talk the price down, it it worth getting a rigger to check it out?
  6. I was wondering what thoughts were on buying this for my first rig (this is just the container and reserve). The rig is kind of old, and i wanted to see if there is any point in having it sent to my rigger to check it out, or if it isn't even worth that. Talon T7 900 Jumps DOM 5/96.
