Cable
Cable is a time travelling cybernetic mutant soldier, "in many ways the opposite of Deadpool", yet he's been known to be both an enemy and ally to Deadpool. He's the villain in Deadpool 2.
In Deadpool's sequel, the movie narrates the story of Deadpool forming a team of mutants called the X-Force to protect a young mutant from Cable.

I found a better shot of the front. It looks like a Hazard 4 logo but i cant find anything like it on there website

Here is the best reference pic I could find. People think it’s the Yoshida Porter Heat bag, but I don’t think that’s it. Cable’s bag looks like it’s leather, has a MOLLE strap on the front, and the straps and clips look way off.

Yeah it’s clearly not a Yoshida Porter bag… The clips are Cobra Buckles and are made by AustriAlpin

Here is a better reference with the logo, but it’s not clear enough to make out 🙁

Mr. T
Has anyone been able to ID his fanny pack after all these years? I’ve never seen such an elusive bag before. Maybe it really is from the future.
Tim
Can you identify the shirt he wears under the tactical vest during the prison break-in? I can provide pictures via email.
Costume_Guide
Can you please post a link from imgur to the pictures ?

Questions on the BFG:
You can clearly see a shroud around the actual barrel, then immediately underneath is an ar-15 type rail system to which the grenade launcher is attached. Why the extra barrel shroud between the actual barrel and the grenade launcher? Stability? Grip? No reason?
Also, how does it work? It takes glock mags, but fires energy bolts right? Also, the lock dial on the side controls energy output?
Thadeous
That’s for the 9mm submachine gun. The main barrel is an energy weapon, the second barrel fires the 9mm rounds. You see him using it in the prison scene.
