Here's my moleskin

Telomimetico clown pants.

>when niggas don't bid on your shit on eBay
You faggots have no idea what's about to hit you...
>>30521305
There all going to be had
>>30520168
Pretty sure only like two of us have actual M05.
>>30521488
They're*, dear.
>>30521269
If I wore the border agency fleece around here I'd cause a panic, then get stabbed.
>>30521630

I;d rather just wait for the price drop after knock-off M05 comes out.
>>30521631
You could always tuck the tag in, famalam.
Also, isn't the Border Agency defunct?
>>30521648
True, but you know how people are.
I'm more interested in the other thing as you know.
>>30521641
If it happens.

I have some. BAC has some.
How long did it take you guys to get your iacmc accounts verified?
>>30522329
That's who I was talking about.
>>30522380
A few hours for me, a few months for other people it seems to depend on how busy the admin is.
>when you get scarce early NVA trousers off Varusteleka for cheap
>>30522972
How's the quality senpai?
Can they be worn just like normal pants?
>>30522169
Can you give me the name of all these items?
Im looking for some camping wear for a canadian forest in the summer and thatnlooks like a great material
>>30523080
Built like a flippin' tank, just like most items from the 1950s and 60s.
They're regular straight-leg trousers (just with an oldschool cut), so I don't see why you couldn't wear them casually.
Speaking of M05, the copyright ends this autumn. Some stores are already taking preorders on finnish army current-issue clothing.
>>30523604
You mean THE store.
>>30523629
No, Varusteleka is actually offering their own slightly improved version of issue kit. Many a Finnish store is offering actual issue items.
>>30523604
>>30523629
Now that M05 becomes common, what will be the most desired rare European current issue pattern?
TAZ90?
>>30523644
As far as I know Finland still won't be surplusing m05.
>>30524006
>still won't be surplussing
>many stores offering preprders for actual items >>30523604 >>30523644
wat?
>>30524030
They're repros, not surplus.
>>30523898
Estonian or Latvian.
>>30524006
Because Mr American is the expert on what is going on in Finland.
>>30524097
Those have always been rarer than Finnish stuff. Nothing has changed.
Here are some photos of SM wholesale's Blurred Edge camo. The zeltbahn and helmet cover on the bottom and right are an older print than the type 1 smock to the left.
>>30524520
and here is the fall side. I'll be posting some photos of At the Front's new Oak A pattern in a few minutes.
Package arrived today even though it still says its in Chicago, and im starting to think this is a repro. The Buttons look to new, The arm Buttons are missing and The arms are sewn slut. What do you guys think?
Anybody want to buy some crye style pants?
>>30524557
That reminds me, I did find the picture of the dispersion trousers, but the style is god-awful.
>>30522169
do i see a mora companion?
>>30524544
Color doesn't look right. I'm also don't think that is USMC HBT material. The pattern of the weave looks like the Army type.
Do you have a black light? If so use it and see if the shirt or any of the stitching glows.
Here is the spring side of an At the Front Oak A pattern zeltbahn. I have their zelt, smock, helmet cover, and cap; the pattern and color matches on all pieces.
>>30524783
and here is the fall side. Personally, from this piece and the photos of the new Blurred Edge pattern they're printing I feel that they're in the running for best camouflage reproducer.
>>30525219
>swiss blatantly ripped off leibermuster
>>30525436
Well, yeah. It isn't called Swiss Liebermuster for no reason. Also, the Germans and Czechians stopped using it so why not use it?
>>30525485
No problem, just hilarious. They did the same thing with the hetzers.
>>30523153
KLMK soviet suit, pilotka cap, generic knit cap, balaclava could be SPLAV, Mora knife, soviet canteen, can't tell on the belt, bag is probably a gas mask bag.
What surp should I bring to Surpfest? So far I've got MTP, Karst, TAZ 90, and assorted Alpenflage.
>>30526343
got any 1990 german flecktarn?
>>30526343
You could bring some Serbian oak leaf for "can't chain the Frein" posing and assorted kebab removal references.
>>30524808
>>30524783
>>30524533
>>30524520
Authentic Waffen SS Zeltbahns go for 350 dollar and Partizan-m clothing sets go for 130. Convince me to get this.
>>30526676
>Convince me to get this.
No, it's not our job to tell you how to spend your money
>>30526343
Remember about the Giant zelt!
>>30526676
Go buy a Partizan-m clothing set.
>>30526762
If I've got the room. The thing is stupid big.
>>30526676
One is slavshit the other is pure Aryan camouflage patterns forged from the will of the fuhrer and the blood and sweat of jewish slave laborers. (technically Chinese these days)
>>30526706
Alright anon, fuck Front Oak. ;-)
Any chance you know the difference between genuine Bundedwehr Kampfrucksacks and knockoffs? Was offered the replica one for 27 dollar. I want to know if they're as good as the originals.
total noobie to camo here
I want some neato desert camo, I live in arizona
what should I buy and where can I buy it?
>>30526872
Kek I actually read about SS camo being produced by jews in working camps. Definitely gotta get me one of those. Thanks!
>>30526892
What do you mean by neato? There's some nice looking common stuff like US 3 or 6 color desert or British MTP. Then there's also super rare stuff like this.
>>30526892
Chocolate chip cookie camo from your local milsurp store or eBay I would say.
>>30526923
Just whatever is in vogue here I guess, I don't know enough to know what I really want or what is out there
I probably can't afford to buy something ultra-rare, and I plan on using it
>>30526940
cool, I'll look around
Slavshit collection
>>30526940
is the stuff on ebay legit or knockoffs? I just want quality made shit, I don't care if it's used
>>30526892
Desert marpat shouldn't be too hard to find. Choco chip and 3 color desert should be the easiest to get. DPM desert is another common one. More exotic options are the vz95 desert camo, Italian mimetico deserto or Russian KSOR.
>>30526908
If you want to maximize the suffering poured into the smock, make sure to get the earlier plane-tree pattern; the early patterns were hand-screened. (the one on the top left)
>>30526989
It's one of the most common and cheap camouflage patterns as the US Army used it. Can't go wrong desu senpai.
>>30526971
That's a sweet patch on your Serb coat on the right there
Won an East German sommer Panzerhelm

czech email pls
what type of jacket is this guy wearing?
and what type of buttpack is that?
>>30527893
Looks like a commercial Finnish M/62 jacket. The buttpack is current Finnish M/05 which is unobtanium at the moment. The patent on it is about to expire, so it is going to flood the market.
>>30521686
If what happens? The price drop off?
The M05 knock-offs?
V-tower already sells the knockoffs, actually higher quality than the milsurp shit, same exact camouflage material from the same factory that makes the actual FDF shit
the price drop is a given
>>30528106
wow thanks for the info, with the patent lapsing are the Finns adopting a new kit?
>>30528182
I have no idea.
>>30528182
>>30528233
Hard to believe it's over 10 years old, I see it so seldom it feels new every time.
Im new to the whole milsurp camo collecting thing, why is it impossible to find DPM trousers in my size anywhere at a reasonable price?
>>30529596
Surp can just be random like that. Czech Vz.85/95 jackets are less than $20 but the pants can cost up to $100.
>>30528402
Same goes for TAZ 90.
Glorious Yugoslav MOL 68 pattern
>>30527893
That looks like the m91 "guerilla jacket" Or sissitakki in finnish. The hem is most likely shortened afterwards. Buttpack looks like a russian jagel knockoff.
Vest is standard issue from m05 kit.
Can't wait to get my fabric order from Vleka. Many many meters of m05 summer, winter and cold weather goodness.
Amazing DIY projects are to be seen this fall.
>>30528182
Nah. But we, the swedes and danish are working on a common fighting kit, including uniforms together for 2020. Each country can choose their own camo for that. So most likely we will go with the m05, swedes with m90 and danish with multicam.
>>30528177
They don't sell anything with FDF material yet. All is russian copy currenty.
>>30526883
>27 USD
If I were you, I'd spend that money on a used original - they're hard-wearing kit meant for serious use. Don't even bother with the Chinese-made knockoffs; they feature substandard materials and lackluster QC.
>>30524575
mould camo
>>30526971
I'm picking out Slavshit camo for UK airshitting, I'm looking at Partisan SS Leto, Partisan M, and SPECTRE camos. Which do you reccommend?
>>30531735
Partisan M.
SS Leto. (If I get a good solid reccommendation, then I will stop shit posting this.)
>>30531745
>>30531739
>>30531735
I'd say SS Leto. IMO it has the best concealing abilities. Enough contrast between colours and good colours that work in various places.
>tfw missed out on a USPHS M-65 in Woodland for 17 EUR
This is me in my IZLOM slav outfit
How much is this worth? Great condition, size L. I can get it for $45 shipped.
>missed an auction because didn;t think anyone would bid and it'd be relisted cheaper
>Someone sniped it
My own fault really.
>>30533440
That's bout right.
>>30533530
It's okay, I've missed out on
>$15 auscam
>$10 french desert
>$30 eesti TTsKO
Just because I simply forgot to bid. And those prices are including shipping.
>>30533540
Hmm, I'll have to think on it then. It seems a bit expensive to me.
>>30533558
I'm selling a similar one for 45.
I am planning on buying some flecktarn soon, but have no idea on the sizing of it. I am a 36 waist if there is a size recomended.
Plez help milsurp circle jerk.

It;s no big loss, but I'm salty about it because I love weird items.
>>30533558
Then comes in the broke trench with a $200 shirt
>>30531745
>>30531739
>>30531735
Any more reccommendations for these items? I'd be using a SMERSH and an OD Green vest for one of these Partizan suits when I STALKER or airshit.
>>30533573
Size 12. Or 8.
I need to get some CADPAT gear because my QM won't issue. Where can i find a bush cap? i think I asked this before but I forgot.
Anyways here's what's on the way for me.
>>30533583
rip
>>30526962
Chocolate chip is aesthetic as fuck and very common, just go to your nearest Army/Navy store and you'll find plenty there, especially living in the desert. The British brush stroke (I'm going to get crucified for not knowing what it's called here) is also a good option, and I can personally say that it is the most comfortable uniform I own.
I don't know what they use exactly, but they're tough as hell, fit well, and are super comfy (soft, not stiff or scratchy) Only downside is theyre a little thicker than their US counterpart, but you should be fine in the desert. I feel it with my woodland brush stroke in the SE because of the humidity during the summer, but they can't be beat for winter innawoods gear.
Just my 2 cents.

>>30534140
So I'm making a late 70's/early 80's Merc uniform (patches notwithstanding obviously). I've settled on the OD green top, but was wondering what kind of camo to wear for bottoms. I was thinking tiger stripe, but I'd like to hear y'alls suggestions too, maybe find something I like better. Pic related
>>30532716
How is the camo working out for you?
>>30534240
Oh, and also any suggestions for lbv's for 5.56 mags and basic innawoods utility aside from old ALICE packs and pistol belts. Just looking for some opinions and options.
>>30534140

Got a Ratnik 6b45 Vest in today, very comfy
>>30535586
I'll give it to the ruskies, their body armour design is superior.
>>30535586
So I've been trying to look around but I can't seem to find it anywhere, does anyone have an idea of what the GOST R Rating would be for the kevlar itself and not the plates?
>>30533440
I think i can get you a set (pants + shirt) for $50+ shipping - should be $20 tops to US. No promises but i'll do my best. Leave me an email address if you're interested.

Welcome to the club friendo, now you just gotta get a full RATNIK set
>>30536599
Where did you get a digi flora top with velcro on the arms?
>>30536606
VKBO Demiseason suit. I also have a SPLAV digiflora UBAC that I plan on grabbing some SPLAV pants for
Why does everyone suddenly have a boner for digiflora? It's shit!
>>30536630
>fuck you
>>30536599
Yeah I'm not sure what other Ratnik stuff I would get. I'm pretty content with the Bars Gorka-4, If anything, the next things I'm looking for, are a Smersh LBE, and a helmet. I really want a LShZ-2DTM, but pretty much all the FSB/MVD helmet shit is rare and expensive as fuck.
>>30536623
I have a splav gorka, have to put my own velcro on it
>>30536630
You're shit, had one ever since crimea got invaded
>>30536648
VKBO suit, whatever one matches your area, a 6SH112 vest if you can even find the full thing for a decent enough price, 6B47 helmet, 6B34 goggles, pads, gloves, boots. Basically anything that starts with a 6 or a 6B. A 6B43 if you want your 6B45 to be even heavier or 6B46 if you're interested in plate carriers that aren't quite as obstructive at the neck
Hey guys, was this what we had no idea was going to hit us?

What color scheme do you want? The green one in your pic related?
Mr. M can find you what you need, being our local Romanian and all.
>>30536584
Any update on additional fleck sets?
>>30537501
I should get them on Saturday. Stay tuned on your email.
>>30537529
Cheers, thanks.
>>30534813
Damn that's pretty neat actually.
>>30536584
Alright, cool! How about a heavier jacket as well? Different colorations? email me at [email protected]
>>30537529
Go ahead and email me on this too, please.
>>30526343
Nice collection m8.
>>30526654
Captain meme.
>>30527028
Gotta give the germans credit for making such an aesthetically pleasing camo.
>>30526971
Nice my slavshit consists of 3 different sets of Ukie TTSKO, Desert, summer and tropical and a BARS Gorka 3. (And some serb stuff if you wanna count them)
>>30530582
How is the suit I've considered getting one since I started collecting.
>>30533583
Ik that feel I'm broke and I listed shit but it nobodys bought or made offers on anything.
>>30533613
Your QM any decent condition real CADPAT on the market is illegal in Canada and expensive just go to your QM and get it.
>>30534240
For function and aesthetic use an SADF chest rig or battle jacket.
>>30536630
Kys <3, jk digiflora is a nice camo doesn't trump M84 in my books but at least I can get a set for an affordable price.
>>30537734
>Ik that feel I'm broke and I listed shit but it nobodys bought or made offers on anything.
I have a bunch of stuff i'm thinking of selling. Is opening an ebay store worth the hassle?
>>30537789
Ask trench I'm a closet jew that hasn't managed to sell anything via ebay yet. Though I did sell Alpen the KFOR paddyflage shirt <3 u alpen.
>>30537789
Its really easy actually, if you already have a paypal.
>>30537817
>tfw 100+ items listed
>only 12 sales last month
>>30537825
I do have a paypal. Not sure on how ebay taxes work. Do they take a part of anything you sell? Also, does it cost to put stuff up for sale? I tried reading their policy, but it's a bit confusing.
>>30537848
10-12% of every sale
>>30537858
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=38m_2O4L_5Y
>>30537848
They take 10% I think. And they only start charging to put things up for sale once you've sold like a hundred items in 90 days or something.
Keep in mind paypal also takes like 2% as well.
>>30537837
I have like 6 things total (one listing has 3) so I can relate minorly. Last thing I sold was last summer. Feelsbadman
>>30538006
I had like $260 worth of shit sold in the last 60 days, mostly because of this (rip)
>>30538006
>You have listed (active) 166 items with a Value of $3,794.69
>>30538203
What do you have to pay in fees? I usaly get raped by them when my stuff doesn't sell.
>>30538363
Nothing unless I sell things. I pay them $15 for a store subscription.
>>30536672
6b50 goggles are out now, way better than 6b34 as they have rubber outsides rather than the garbage stuff they used to use that always ripped off and collected sweat like bucket. Also look at the 6sh116 or 117, 116 a lot of people prefer because it has much more MOLLEd belt. Whilst 6sh117 has a back area that is MOLLEd so you can attach hydrators.
>>30531735
Partizan M bro, theres a place in UK that sells them but i think they are out atm if you want the link. But honestly partizan M best camo i have, especially the osen side, not only does it look good but you hide in any sort of dead bush/yellow grass you will be unnoticable.
And the Green Side is very similar to SS LETO but youre still pretty much gettimg 2 suits in 1 purchase.
>>30537734
friend of mine bought a set of ukie blue ttsko and made fucking cutoff shorts with the trousers... The butan/TTsKO i have is my fathers from his service in 1988-90 "Estonia"
>>30538909
Why is he still your friend?
>>30538818
6B50 sounds interesting, but MOLLE belts and backs are fairly useless when the belt area is raised and singled out and rucksacks or other individual carriers exist. I actually like having just the vest area and a separate belt/bag so that one can be ditched without losing everything, and good luck getting into a bag literally attached to your back, unless you only carry things like sleeping bags in it

Also how much risk is their that these might be fake/knock offs?
>>30544182
Zero. It's be a pain to do and there are still plenty of real ones around so it wouldn't be profitable.
>>30544182
I dont think theres a big chance, i mean just look for any words such as mil tec, I would look around more on ebay though, you could find something cheaper, also find out your size too, Ivan from kommandostore.com has a sizing chart i think?
>>30544194
Did you get more fabric?
>>30544212
..no? That's from when i had all the parkas together.
>>30544212
>mil tec
Are they the knock off ones?
>>30544218
Oh okay never mind, took a second look and they were parkas, how many were you able to sell?
>>30544230
They're all gone now.
>>30544238
Oh nice,are you planning on making more?
>>30544242
Nope! I sold them on the promise of there only being ten after all.
>>30544267

Well green boots and norgie OD cap then.

IIRC, those Norwegian flak vests came with a bunch of weapons our MoD bought off Norway a few years ago.
Estonia's a dumping ground for old Scandinavian stuff, so damn near every combination of local kit and Nordic surp is possible.

thank you friend, i have searched so long for a pic of swedish gear being used by others then swedish army
>>30545621
i really hope the liners on those m59 windjackets are out, or they would be sweating to death
New stuff!
>>30547825
Awesome! Wh- what is it?
>>30547778
Have another one. Images of Estonian servicemen (especially Defense League members) with Swedish kit are easy to find due to the sheer amount of stuff that got sent here.
>>30547849
Taiwanese. I think its a tanker coverall.
>>30547873
The Taiwanese have tanks?
>>30547881
Holy shit I need to take another picture of that.
>>30547881
A few hundred.
>>30547778
Recent image of the universally despised M59 webbing (nicknamed "Rootsi rinnahoidja" or "Swedish bra") in wear.
>>30547955
>>30547993
Anything with the isreali webbing in shot? Or does it not get used.
>>30548055
Mystery hat... Norway? Denmark?
Bought an old pair of od pants. No tag besides the laundry tag. Name is pure coincidence.
>>30547993
Where do you find these pics? They tickle my fancy, if you know what I mean.
>>30548120
Based on research I should have done earlier this is probably someone's Halloween costume :(
>>30541431
Welp this arrived but I wasn't there to sign so it's at the post office right now.
Meanwhile the russian air force jacket has been in limbo for 1.5 months and counting.
>>30548445
I've had a single item from Russia take 3 months and I've had strut arrive in 3 weeks. Depends what part of Russia you ordered from.
>>30548058
Here's one. Dude in the middle.
Pictorial evidence of Israeli webbing being worn is quite scarce. I know for a fact that it (and some other gear, including flak jackets and Orlite helmets) was supplied along with the Galils in 1993.
Most sets were probably worn to bits over the years and discarded. Nowadays you might see the occasional Defense League member with an old and tattered set, but that's all.
>>30548197
Random Google searches, fambino.
>>30548702
Several sets of Israeli webbing visible here.
>>30548697
Hmm. Mine says it was located in Чeлябинcк
>>30549017
What helmet cover does the black vest/BDU coat guy have on? Coloration looks like some older Latvian or Lithuanian pattern or something.
Here's a great picture for the anon who wanted examples of Swedish kit being used outside Sweden.
Also, link in filename is an absolute goldmine of Defense League images. If you have the patience to browse through all the sub-albums, I guarantee you'll find many images of extremely bizarre uniform/gear combinations.
To clear everything up for you faggots here is what is happening in Finland.
The camo print protection ends in 82 days, Varusteleka will start selling M05 which is not army surplus but freshly made from an Estonian factory, the same exact fucking location the FDF orders their shit from. It has all the same qualities and even some things improved. Technically its not surplus, and not repro.
>>30549284
We've known this for about 3 months.
>>30549171
Sheeeiiit, I didn't even notice it before you pointed it out. No idea what it is (inb4 new holy grail camo - Estonian tigerstripe), probably some Ruskie lizard clone?
>>30549284
>Technically its not surplus, and not repro.
Well technically, it's a repro. Because it's not surplus.
>>30549171
>>30549357
Sorry I meant the pattern, yeah the coloration looks pretty close to the Eesti TTsKO.
Some rare variation? The cover seems to be the same cut as the other TTsKO ones.
Bought a car, found pic related in the trunk. It's in almost new condition, the shitty camera doesn't do it justice. Thought it was neat
>>30550111
Did you buy He Who Cannot Be Chained's car?
>>30549781
My guess is "misprint TTsKO fabric that somehow found its way to the factory".
>>30550111
Eric Frein's car?
>>30550337
>>30550258
Damn, beat me to it
>>30550111
That's a helluva find.
What car did you buy?
>>30550279
Another thing to keep an eye out for I guess.
>>30550428
>>30538868
>>30531831
I'm getting some conflicting responses here.....
FORGIVE ME CAMOLORD FOR I HAVE SINNED
I just sold a set of Mitchell camo hunting gear to this lady in CA. I looked the name up... and she chops up old fabric to make into bags.
I am so sorry. So so sorry.
>hunting gear
Nothing of value was lost.
post milsurp adventures
>>30547858
>>30547993
thank you very much!
>>30549017
>>30549204
i recognize those m59 scarfs/bandanas anywhere
>>30550595
It was original surplus material at one point though. And it was beat to shit... And I sold it for $200, when I was really only expecting to get $125.
So yeah, I guess it isn't the worst thing.
I still feel worse about the 3 jungle jackets I sent to another guy. Look up Atelier&Repairs if you want to squirm.
>>30550428
Got a Lancia Kappa
>>30550351
Trust me, finding that jacket was just a cherry on top of an already great experience. I might customize the jacket a bit to make it fit better. Might hack it up to make something completely different.
>>30550279
>>30549017
Neat!
>>30550572
>>30550615
Nothing will top off the Polish splinter camo sewn into hipster shit.
I couldn't find the picture of it though, which is probably for the best.
>>30550604
That HBT shirt looks nice
>>30550657
Doesn't look too bad, looks like an average large sedan. Good reliability/gas mileage?
>>30550702
oh lordy
>>30550713
Don't want to turn this into an /o/ thread but since I have no IRL ppl to talk about it I hope the guys will understand. Reliability - decent at best, gas mileage - let's just say imma be hurtin'. But this is my dream car. It has the legendary 3.0 24v Busso V6 in it, upholstery made by Poltrona Frau, best BOSCH injection system they ever made.... It's my kryptonite.
>>30550759
you have nice taste in cars friend, my dream car is Saab 99 turbo
>>30550759
>>30550775
I'm a Defender guy myself. Although I come from a family of bikers, and I'd kill to have a BMW F800.
>>30550775
I like your style familia
>>30550604
Trench and I will be able to next week!
>>30550812
I was eyeballing a Land Cruise HZJ78, but this thing came at me from the left field, and I just couldn't miss the opportunity. HZJ78 is going to be my next purchase. Nothing beats a good 4x4
Hey guys, does anyone know what the "expiration" date on kevlar helmets is? I got a good offer for a French milsurp PASGT style bucket made in 98. I don't plan on using it as ballistic protection, but it wouldn't hurt to know if it could actually stop anything.
>>30550478
Looks like the Slovenian pattern almost, pretty cool.
>>30550759
Nice, didn't know it had a Busso. Not too familiar with foreign cars. Sounds like you're pretty damn happy with it though, that's good. And you gotta a little boot loot with it too.
>>30550775
That's a nice one there.
>>30550812
If Rovers were even a thing here in the US, I'd get a Defender any day. I just run a 97 Corolla for work and errands and on the days I have some money for gas, a 92 Wrangler.
>>30550843
>Get Defender 110
>Stick this in back
Truly my life would be complete.
>>30550876
Kevlar has an expiration date?
>>30550884
>Looks like the Slovenian pattern almost, pretty cool.
The slovenian pattern is actually directly based on it, pretty sure the only difference is they use 4 colors rather than 5. Wish I had some of that stuff.
>>30550812
me and my dad kinda have a small collection of mopeds, crescent compact, piaggio ciao, yamaha DT50, rieju drac, and a flatbed moped, crescent i think. no real motorcycles for me yet.
>>30550901
>Kevlar has an expiration date?
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that kevlar loses some of its properties as it ages. But can't find shit about any specific time frames.
>>30550884
More than happy bro. People look at me like I'm crazy since everyone is running away from these cars. I'm the only one trying to find one in decent condition, which happened last week. Couldn't be happier.
>>30550876
10 years is what I've heard. Less if it's been used, especially on a daily basis.
>http://www.kevlarbulletproofvest.com/kevlar-bulletproof-vests-expire/
This thing is awesome.
>>30550947
Thanks for clearing this up for me. Wish I could get a used Mich, but ITAR's a bitch.
>>30550961
I feel like a Spaceballs asshole wearing this damned thing.
>>30550994
Hetzer hat! I have one of those kicking around here somewhere.
>>30550982
If I had an extra one I'd send you a homemade pottery package mummified in tape, but I don't even have one.
I've heard stories of guys on IACMC bringing tons of discarded ones home from base dumpsters, along with other stuff they just throw away.
>>30551039
Did they surplus the headphones for them? I can only find the shells.
Just got some Partizen M's in the mail. Really nice, the reversible buttons, draw cords and pockets are interestingly done.
>>30551065
I've never seen them, but then I didn't look very hard. I Imagine they had to "demil" them for export or some nonsense like that.
>>30551046
That is just insane. The only one I found was on French ebay and they asked an arm and a leg for it. You could actually make bank by selling them here in Europe, but with all these regulations that would too risky. That pottery idea sounds crazy enough to work, but I couldn't let you risk it. Who knows what kind of checks those packages go through, though I appreciate the thought.
What I can do for you guys is get you some Yugoslav camo if anyone is looking for something in particular. I just need to get back on my feet financially. Drained my funds with this car adventure.
Can anyone ID this helmet? Supposedly Vietnam-era, possibly F-4 pilot. Any ideas?
Serious question, I'm not judging anyone, just looking for inspiration
Do any of you actually wear some of this stuff on a regular basis, ie, out grocery shopping, doing errands, out with friends?
I don't see anything wrong with it, but something in the back of my head keeps telling me I shouldn't. Should I just stop giving a fuck?
>>30551173
Sure. But I'm weird so use your own judgement, some patterns lend themselves better to it than others.
>>30551173
I personally don't. I use it as my field gear for innawoods and such. If I'm working on cars or getting dirty I'll throw on some of my milsurp. I might be a minority though. The fact is that I love uniforms and camo in general, and not even I can tell you why.
>>30551173
I used to a bunch. It's generally too hot to wear a long sleeve shirt, though.
>>30551109
Oh well, maybe one day I'll find a set to mate it with.
>>30551129
If there was a way to find out their customs checks I would.
I'm kinda broke here for a few months since I work seasonal and am moving, but once I get going again with a permanent position I'd be interested in buying some Yugo oversuits off you.
>>30551141
Can you get a profile shot? Looks like an APH-5 with a MBU-5/P mask from this angle.
>>30551277
We can make something happen when you're up for it. There's still a lot of stuff floating around, even the rare shit like this
>http://www.kupujemprodajem.com/Kombinezon-RDB-35076550-oglas.htm
Overall fielded by our intelligence agency's special service branch JSO during the Kosovo war. They didn't use two piece uniforms, just like most specops guys.
>>30551277
Here you are
>>30544227
yes
>>30551428
Yep, APH-5 helmet with upgraded mask attachment mounts
>>30550478
>>30550884

>>30551554
What camo does he not have?
>>30551625
Taz07
>>30551481
Cool. so I'm assuming it belonged to a Naval Aviator? Any way to know what he flew?
>>30551173
Sometimes, as long as you have no badges no one really cares
>>30551671
True. Then again who does?
>>30551726
Either a Navy or Marine pilot.
Some guys can figure out what squadron or carrier someone was on just by the helmet designs but I'm not one of them.
As for what they flew, you'd have to figure out the squadron first.
>>30551625
Albanian digital.
>>30552632
looks kinda like 90's flecktarn in terms of colour
>>30552632
Holding onto any possible bragging rights.
I like it, it's like half digital. It's a pretty good looking uniform compared to what they had under Soviet rule.
>>30550540
I've always wondered. Isn't this smersh rig basically an alice rig but with molle? Isn't this a step backwards for the Russians?
>>30552632
Really does remind me of fleck
>>30552632
I still want that.
>>30554018
I want to buy that camo
