sekiryu Posted January 17, 2009 Report Share Posted January 17, 2009 I just got my AUSCAMs in the mail today and just ordered a giggle hat.....but, I have to ask, why do they call them giggle hats? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Shriven Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 Cos they are lols. Is it just me, or is Desert auscam completely pointless, since regular auscam is quite blatantly fine? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Jon Posted January 18, 2009 Report Share Posted January 18, 2009 guess it depends how deserty the desert is shriv. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DPDU is sexy . Â I have it on authority that regular auscam was/is used more often than not because, as you say its 'quite blatantly fine'. Desert gear was virtually un-used for the above reason, and private purchase brown/auscam gear was/is very common. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tom Andrews Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) For holding your rank slide? Â Â Of course, being Austrailian, it could be for holding a bottle opener! Edited January 19, 2009 by Tom Andrews Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Danke Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 Rank slides are that big? Â You bet. Same size for a Pvt. all the way up to the RSM, and he's going to need a bit more real estate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-Angel- Posted January 19, 2009 Report Share Posted January 19, 2009 US style ranks are much more condensed that the UK and australian versions. Aussie/Brit rank slides have a face size of about 1.5" x 3". Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Dragoondark Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) US jackets have the same flap, only we pin on our rank on that flap instead on sliding it on Edited January 20, 2009 by Dragoondark Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Feindflug Posted January 26, 2009 Report Share Posted January 26, 2009 (edited) @sekiryu: Looking good so far. but please change the flag. Where you got the dpcu from? Â @CoolHeart_ASN: The vest used to be the genuine issued body armour until the Land 125 System was intorduced back in 2005/2006. Got a lucky shot on egay a 2 years ago. Â @Joshua Rose: Got something new comming soon. Very first pattern DPDU's (similar to US 3 col.). Mainly used as enemy cams for training purposes.

micropop Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 does anyone know where to get this in the US? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
atomicaardvark Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 does anyone know where to get this in the US? I'd try to source some Auscam through ebay, it's where I purchased all of my Auscam kit; search either 'auscam' or 'dpcu'. There's one seller who usually has some listed, can't remember his name though. Â As an alternative, try 'Auscam' searched on Begadi Online Store which is where items were purchased by some people I played alongside at an event run by Stirling Airsoft in the UK. Â Â I'm in the front row on the right with the Steyr AUG. The gent in the front row next to me is wearing one of the Begadi DPCU fleece jackets. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sekiryu Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 It doesn't look like Begadi ships to the US Â Darn, those chest rigs looked nice too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
