There could be other manufacturers out there, none that know of, though. I don't know what the going rate for a Vegetato set is, but it is not horrible. The only issues I encountered in mine were shit buttons which take minutes to replace and some loose thread which isn't that big of a deal. I don't ever wear/use mine because I don't like the ACUish cut it has.

Every time I see the TAZ "72" Alpenflage, I get more and more confused.

From what I've researched, the oldest model has:
Single rings for the top straps of the backpack
No vinyl reinforcements on the elbows/knees
Integrated frog for the Stgw. 57 bayonet.

From what I have seen, there is only one model of Alpenflage that has the double rings, and that model also always has vinyl reinforcements. It is also the most common version.

>>30372624
Then I see something like this your jacket and it has a mix of all of those. It has double pack rings meaning it's a late production model, but the lack of vinyl elbow reinforcements means it is an early model.

What the fuck Switzerland.

Be careful if you're going to try and buy issued cadpat. It's illegal for civilians to own and you could find yourself in a lot of shit if they catch you with it. I'm fairly sure each set has a unique code that they can check, so just watch out.

Need some help looking for a milsurp jacket for aus qld weather (think 9-17 degrees celcius) Wind protection and cold protection is what I'm looking for, anything waterproof would be a big plus. Extra pockets on the vest to hold ammunition/other things would also be nice.

For pattern, anything that could blend with pic related would be awesome.

That's not surprising, the average Chinese soldier is slightly smaller than a 7 year old girl. Hopefully their new shit incorporated such cutting-edge technology as "mesh" The LBV didn't breathe for shit, the ELBV was a massive improvement but it still took up pretty much all the room on the Alice belt.
>>
>>30383527
I'd say the slovenian set is worth anywhere from 90-110, the serbian jacket and pants around 100 and the vest an additional 80-100.

If by light jacket you mean the fleece zip up, I'd say up to max $50-60 depending on size, realistically ~$45

Can you describe what the russian camo looks like, or possibly find another picture online? See if it's on here

Can some other person who's also knowledgeable about surplus confirm or edit my estimates? Cheers.

The EU with it's lower post taxes and open borders allowed our hobby to grow a lot. Try buying some surp from Russia and see how much shipping and taxes are.

the reason for high shipping and taxes from russia is EUs fault though.
shipping and taxes are cheap as fuck to norway from russia. so you brits just get cheaper stuff from the rest of the world now. and if you get access to the internal market, keeps the same low shippin/taxes as you had in the EU

I'm glad global politics are giving the finger to the price gouging import businesses that do nothing other than destroy their own nation, people, and community.

Remember how they openly bragged about ripping fellow /k/ommandos off on obviously pumped up prices on foreign imports? Not so smug now, huh NE?

Can't wait until Trump literally legislates them out of existence.
