lol- back in the day that photo caused quite a bit of 'debate'. I copied the weapon shown in it for a CAG loadout i was doing as i thought the photo depicted a CAG operator. later on i read in a few other forums that the guy was in fact DEVGRU. i think opinion is still divided although i think more people favour the DEVGRU guess.

can't being myself to paint it, although it did get covered in ###### for a photoshoot to try and get that 'used' look.

They are not designed to have the battery replaced as they are in a sealed unit HOWEVER you can cut it open and replace the battery if needed.
Are you aware that ebaybanned are bringing out copies of the V-lite?
EDIT: or at least they were. Can't seem to find the link now.

Tomo that is awsome! What was the senario? How was the game run?
The game ran from friday night till sunday lunch time. The company that hold the event (Stirling) have an ongoing scenario that's been running for over a year now. An insurgency movement has infiltrated the local population living in the valley and have pretty much taken over. Gov forces are tasked with retaking the valley and capturing the insurgency leadership, not an easy task when you don't know who the insurgents are as they hide within the local population (strict ROE's are in force - you cannot engage any unarmed player, they are classed as civilian) . Gov forces are usually outnumbered as well so taking ground is one thing - holding it afterwards is a lot harder!
We were tasked with a recon and OP role for this game, which meant a night time ascent (about 2500 feet) on Friday over very rough terrain to get into a decent overwatch position to start spotting activity within the valley come dawn. The play area is vast, so you need to know where the enemy is and what they are about before you can plan effectively. The weather closed in Saturday evening reducing visablilty to zero so we tabbed off of the mountain and joined up with the main element for the rest of the game. Its defo a physical challenge, especially this time of year, but well worth it.

There is a now infamous pic of a table display showing US Army SF firearms, on the table along with an M4 and M9, there was a Glock 19. Sorry I didn't save said pic-but a few in here might have it.
This one?
This was taken at a US Ranger open day a few years back.

Found a good deal on issue MARPAT on eBay, still haven't worn it yet. Whats the deal with wearing OD gear with Woodland MARPAT, 99% of time its Coyote Brown gear, but Ive seen a few pictures of Recon marines wearing OD vests/gear.
I remember some training photo's with alice gear being used alongside marpat

Its a USGI ACU moisture wicking T-Shirt in sand color. I got it off of ebay.
Man, I wonder if the dry cleaners near me can do this kind of stuff...Go ask them dude - I wondered the same thing for weeks until I went in and had a chat with the couple that ran the place.

Nice Tomo-where did you get the ANVIS mount and ANVIS, if they're real?
Got the mount and the LPBP (they are both real) from ebay, took a few attempts but I eventually won a set.
The Anvis-9 is a repro set, and was a one off deal.

I'm using Froblube on my real steel .308 to try and smooth out the bolt action. seems to be working, although as others have said it works better when the parts are warm.
There's a video on youtube showing a guy using a hair dryer on some of his pistol collection prior to cleaning.
