Oh, and just for the record, he re-purposed the rifle sling as a shoulder-sling to his bread-bag (Russian butt-pack) making it into a shoulder-bag, then put all his ammo-pouches in front so it's at about chest-rig/bandolier height.
If it isn't winter, then he probably left the greatcoat behind and I'll need to describe his lower-layers as some sort of other mil-surp button-down shirt like the OG-107 type II, American-issue of the late 60's, or a HBT uniform of 1941 surplus.
Will probably also fashion a crude poncho out of a tarp.
Tarp will be secured by ammo-belt. And yes, I do realize it [the belt] weighs nearly as much as the rifle itself.
I am back. Sorry, I disappeared like that. I had a family emergency that came up.
Just to note, I'm having complications with my laptop and am unable to get on it so I am on the family computer at the moment. I won't be able to get on it except at night until my laptop is fixed and maybe during the day when my step-dad takes a nap.

Go to paper & pencil draft-work on posts so you can still work on replies.
10+ years later when cleaning the rats-nest of paperwork under your bed, you'll run into those notes, smile, and have second thoughts about throwing them out.
Sorry I didn't post! I left to go camping and though I would get a chance to say something before I left, I was wrong. I'll be posting tonight when I have time again, sorry again.
Name: Xander Thater Appearance: Age: 24 Gender: Male Where you from?: A little town in Maine called Crab Apple Cove Personality: Xander is hard-working, and that's one of the many aspects of his personality that has made him survive so long on his own. Xander is secretive and mistrustful when you first meet him, but in this era who isn't? He's dangerous when he is angry and often has a temper that flares when he doesn't intend to. He has gotten better at keeping cool and forgetting his temper but it is still there. Xander is calm, cool and collected when the world asks for it. He is arrogantly confident, and is one of his major flaws. Back Story: Xander's parents were killed in a car accident when Xander was 10. He lived in foster care until he turned 18, and then he finally had his freedom. Xander never got to attached to people knowing they would eventually leave. He eventually became an FBI agent. When the out break started he fled to the mountains and slowly starting moving around the country never staying in the same place for too long. Weapons: required (photos and names acceptable)
Dince TMH's ride isn't totally wrecked yet (spare tires, and wheels, hopefully aren't going to be impossible to find) she could just ram it down the block on a flat-tire until she finds an auto-shop.
There are A LOT of repair-stations in Cleveland.
Someone's gonna pay for those wrecked-rims, though. -*But yeah, lets corner, then draw and quarter the guy who took shots at you.
The auto parts store wont be much help if they have already been raided though. We could consider that an option if our characters aren't taken out by the sniper xD
