Madcap Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 So General Ops would be great and as the gun HK416? I just got a offer for M16A4. Im thinking that that wont fir good with UKSF or will it. Its good looking and all, but aint fitting the set propely i think. HK416 dont have markings, but have anybody seen HK416 with Khaki paint on it? Because im thinking one option for that gun to cover no markings. Link to post Share on other sites
spetsnazdave87 Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 416 over M16A4, definitely. Link to post Share on other sites
mattyw Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 With the m16a4 you could always make a gulf war weapon so make it into a m16a2 and put a 'noob tube' on it and you can look old school Link to post Share on other sites

Madcap Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 I think im going with HK416 and thinking of spraying it matt khaki color on it, because its lacking of markings. Im changing my old weapon to it and for some reason there aint so many lowbudget HK:s in finland. Link to post Share on other sites

Pkekyo-Nor Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Yes, they're either RAVs or RMVs, Madcap. Link to post Share on other sites
Madcap Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Does UKSF paint their weapons even or do they even use factory painted weapons, like tan. Or does they just leave the gun as it is, grey/black. Link to post Share on other sites
boomheadshot (infidel) Posted July 8, 2010 Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Depends where they are, from TFB pictures show alot of sprayed weapons but generally after a tour or two they look quite shagged for obvious reasons so you could both keep it clean or weather and spray it, up 2 you Link to post Share on other sites

Even an Arktis Stowaway OG... I own a menswear shop here in Pisa, and I'm an official Barbour dealer... That sleeve doesn't look as a Cowen Commando (great item indeed) one...

Alezi Posted July 11, 2010 Report Share Posted July 11, 2010 I took couple pics of my lightweight DPM UKSF in jungle and close protection kits. Both kits take place circa year 2000. Faults are boots (Haix Airpower pro), MBITR replica and speaker mic. Also MP5 should be HK53. Nothing really special today. Link to post Share on other sites

And im thinking not to get nadelauncher, just because i aint having much money to spend all the time. And then i thought, im getting general ops vests with DDPM and DPM suits so would A4(A2) good for the kit? Hope you did get something of that. Link to post Share on other sites

Staffy Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 looks very waxy to me , and i know the cowen commando is popular with the older members in the forces Murta, I've speak with the Barbour italian distributor about to find a Cowen Commando for me. He said its an iconic jacket and it worth a lot of money on the vintage clothing collectors market. There's a replica serie made in 2000/2001 that is more affordable, but for an original one we have to be lucky on the Bay and possibly have a big sum to invest... Link to post Share on other sites
Murta369 Posted July 13, 2010 Report Share Posted July 13, 2010 there simple enough to get round my area as the barbour factory is in the north east but the cowen commandos ive seen are most likely the 2000 re-run in the factory there is a number of runs of different jackets in dpm pattern due to the cowen commandos success within the armed forces which is quite interesting to see. i have a few barbours myself but mainly the trails international series as i find them a better fit for me. even though there expensive i would stilll use the wax cotton series in the field as their so durable. i would put money on an SBS operator in 2001 taking a barbour to afghan IMO. on or off the field their great jackets and you do get you moneys worth. if you do come across one though pal jump on it because you can never have to many barbours they are the dogs *badger*s and there a timeless classic now so youll never need to worry about them going out of fashion Link to post Share on other sites
