Team battle dressMe thinks the team camo should be US woodland most of us have it and i'm being selfish because of my size it tends to be difficult for me to get combats without ordering in from the states where sizes go from xtea small up to super fat bastard
have a look at Out in styles site

mutter

aye smiffy, well put lol
thing is though, if we are wanting to replicate a particular unit and we DO go for digital then we would be copying th US Marines.
thats fine with me, but i thought we would be heading more down the special forces route?
doesn't matter too much i suppose, just thought i'd bring it up.

sorry to distract you guys, but returning to our previous discussion.........
i know its not sticking with a theme but i really like the danish M84 camo.
it's a bit pricey though
|
Colibub

an they dont make it in fat bastard size
|
Falla
|
i like it mutter totaly different
|
Colibub

a bit pricey holy shit £95 for jacket an the same for the trousers
but then there are the cheaper version at £18.00

I think we may have a winner!!!
After a session of enlightenment with guru Tone, he informed me of a camo called "Multicam".
http://www.multicampattern.com/
http://www.cryeprecision.com/view_catalog.asp
It is a new US camo and is apparently being used solely by the specialist of special forces (thats why you haven't seen it much!).
I certainly did not know about it but then again that don't mean much!
I like it! What does y'all think?
Remember it is only know about by the specialist of special forces and Tone so ssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Mike
|
Very nice - but anywhere doing it any cheaper? Mind you, with the doller almost hitting 2 to the pound it's not actually all that bad.
|
davy
|
The Crye precision gear looks pretty cool but, from the link http://www.cryeprecision.com/view_catalog.asp the main picture appears to have a special forces operative with blackened out unit badges ect, but whats the old trainers he is wearing all about, looks like a set up photo????
|
mutter
|
believe it or not, tone found some on ebay
http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/s...p;satitle=multicam&category0=
its onlt £24 for the shirt AND trousers!!! it ships from honk kong but the postage is only $30usd, still a bargin if you ask me!
my only concern would be getting the sizes right becuase obviously we wouldn't be able to return them.
|
mutter
|
oh! and davy, how dare ye! blasphemy!!!!
|
Colibub
|
A think ye could be right m8 a like the look and the design o it again a little costly but as you say its different and a dont think many airsoft teams will be wearin this
|
dogsbody
|
our we could save the money and buy MORE GUNS just a thought
|
Colibub
|
A see ye can buy the material by the yard and i think i know somebody who can make the combats to measure
have to find out how much she charges though it might be worth a thought
|
Falla

i agree uv found a winner lads Tones even sneeky on the net! is there nay stop'n him?
|
mutter

couple more multicam pics tone just sent me:
|
davy

Dont want to put a downer on things, but is the camo not a bit to light for the lush green Scottish countryside, especially on a typical dull summers day
|
mutter
|
WHATTTT!!!!!!!!!
Davy - any more crack like that and i'll have you removed!
cheeky monkey!

Colibub

I think this Multicam could cope with a wide range of environments from what they show on their site.
me thinks it looks a little Universal Soldierish too
|
slinky

multicamWell it does look cool.... it does look a bit light for european work..but sometimes just lookin cool means more . i think its a winner??

These US service women in Iraq have the right idea when it comes to camo, cheap and chearful.
Found these on E-bay, some mexican trying to flog the pictures, claims the girls sent the pictures home to their boyfriends and they got nicked. I bet he was the postman
|
davy

Check out this German site: http://www.stormtec.com/ for multicam camo, has full range of gear, from combats, helmets and assault vests, includes prices in Euro's
|
Falla

i think Mutters use of multicam 2 such devestating effect proved the test case use of it in combat " all hail Mutter!" & a big 2 all u doubters "shame on u"

I agree Falla very effective an Mutter put it te great use snipin me in the nads

A got this fae Military Morons site some good info on there
It shows how dark woodland can look compared to multicam
|
davy
|
mmmmm , if the woodland stood more the left (his right) an back a bit, an the multicam stood away from the tree thats the same colour as his gear a might be more convinced..............
it is cool though but not convincing
|
mutter
|
oooooooooooooooooohhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! davy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
davy
|
What............................. , com on guys hes standin against against a tree thats the same colour as his gear, a already said it was cool
The more a look at the picture the better it gets, a think the woodland guy must be new an is just stupid tryin to hide there an the multicam is jist clever using his surroundings to the best of his ability, a think tone trained him to be honest.

Did anyone see that Redwolf is sellin replica multicam sets (shirt an trousers) for $59 and the chest rig for $75-$159

Ive done a lot of searching the net for info on multicam and some don't like it but most do like it a lot, most people prefer it to ACU as a multi use BDU.
In urban sites it tends to blend better than Woodland, DPM, Flectarn and most of the desert camos but the opposite applies when it comes to full green woodland where the top 3 are Woodland, DPM,and Flectarn but this changes with the weather also, the 3 darker camos stand out more in direct sunlight than multicam does
(I think that's why some of us found the baseball cap Mutter wore to be very effective on the 3rd)
BUT when it comes down to it, the skill of the person wearing the camo no matter what type it is can make it more or less effective(YOU MOVE YOUR SEEN)
A lot of the time your weapon gives you away more than what your wearing. How many times has it been said "oh if it wasn't for your red dot scope I'd never have seen you" and a black gun amongst green foliage
Cost is an issue Vie just paid £107 inc del to SKD Tactical in the US but then you all know a little larger than the norm and could only get my size from the US. Storm Tec in Germany can get me the 2XL size but they don't know how long it could take so I took the plunge and opted to get it from the US.
You can also get it for as little as £40 a set from HK inc del

multicamhey.just seen photos o the multi.i think it looks the bis.
thoutht color was a bit lite last week when i saw hat,but no i like it noo.
after all gary did shoot me in back,so it was very effective.big word eh.

I still prefer the digi cams, I use cadpat and marpat.
Both for differnt times of the year, when its all green and ferny cadpat rules and the opposite applies to marpat, ive got within ten feet of someone before being seen <or should i say they got 10 feet from me!>
But the primary things afaic are movement, skin tone and being sillouetted. i notice a BIG differnce when im showing no skin tone <either face veil or cam paint> and everyone knows if you move you are seen <" I am a stone...">
But the multicam does look pretty :p
Oh and ACU SUCKS big time for pure woodland in my experiance, WAY to light for a dark woodland setting.

davy

Am like a kid in a candy shop, a like the being different aspect of the multicam , the ability to blend in locally with the DPM , but at the moment am tempted, really tempted to go all black , even got the swat boots this morn an have been wearin them at work to break them in, although they are really comfy out of the box.

well u all ken im in2 black but that multicam is just way cool, i'll be havin some thank you.

Ill jump in on this one.... i agree wae davy totally.. any pictures i have seen wae multi cam it tends to fit that colour..it was designed for the usa it seems not european theater..im not saying its not cool.. it is cool but im not convinced of its effectiveness in a european theater.. u just have to look at the colours of the armed forces in european enviroments not usually in lite colours usually dpm style colurs to fit in with terrain... however i could be totally wrong as i said in an earlier post if the sas start using it then we know its good and if they dont it must be rubbish as they are the men.. who still train and it seems operate with americans so they can nearly get something rite.....
lol i probably get a big back lash from this post..... but a cant help the facts.
|
mutter
|
to be honest the argument over how effective it is compared to other camos or how good it is in light/dark terrain etc has become totaly irrelavant to me!
it reeks of special forces and just looks the biz and i'm havin some.
if you can see me in this camo at fifty yards its probably coz i'm bouncin bbs off your scone.

Av been in a few more forums to check the quality of the different BDUs available in Multicam and nearly everybody who took the chance and bought the HK version are quite surprised at how good the quality is so they get the thumbs up
a shoulda bought two sets o HK wans and made a big set oot o them

Mutter tell us what they are like when they arrive, Stuff from China can be very good and also poor, we have had a fair bit from the US, and quite a bit was disapointing in build quality.
We have ACU here which is Chinese made and seems very good quality although I would consider it Urban Camo, Where as the Bulle MarPaT also made in Ching Chong land is indiffrent.
Russian can be very good and has various diffrent patterns and colours but a bit common and but hard to buy at a reasonable price,
Anything Black in woodlands is rubish for hiding even in the dark LOL

will do gmac, i'm not too bothered about the quality of the material as long and the cut and colour are good reproduction.
i didn't want to go for the expensive stuff a: because i don't know what its like, b: i want somthing i'm not going to have a nervous breakdown if it gets torn, c: i'm skint!
i will give you my analasys report in full after my inspection.
