Might I be so rude as to ask for a kit list m@tt-4576 :)?

 

Edit: Forgot to mention just how good your gear looks, comes across as so much more realistic and 'proper' than many of the modern US Special Forces whatnot kits I've seen used in airsoft. They tend to have a 'plastic' feeling about them, yours do not, great job!

Thanks,

By yoke you mean my suspender set up? That's what they used in the movie. At least Bruce Willis' character.

How would I go about fraying it?

 

It probably looks proper cuz it's mostly issue gear, with a setup stolen from a movie with real seals as advisers.

i never cut boonies. if you get real ones in the right size, they shouldne be too large or anything.

and yours looks fine. i wouldnt change a thing for either loadout. maybe i would add an old school parade sling to that M16A2. thats it though.

excellent work, im impressed.

You're loadout's are looking good. The only thing I would say is that, it might be the lighting in the room, but your BDU's look pretty dark and new, I'd mess them up a bit if I was you, get them in the washing machine with some stones to soften them up a bit, but apart from that it looks good to me.

 

It makes me really, really regret selling my SDS LBV and Alice pouches. I've now got a similar set up with a woodland FLC that is lightweight and good for those summer days, It can be worn ontop of my interceptor to bulk it out if need be.

Typical, the LBV was my first set up and I got rid of it because it was 'old hat' but I was at an op and saw a team who were all using the LBV and Alice gear and it's got me wanting to do a late 90's style SF loadout.

 

Damn!!

Ohfortheloveofcrap. Enjoy killing your expensive appliances, dude.

 

I hate this senseless "induced wear" mantra that seems to be on everyone's mind. Just use your kit and it'll wear in naturally, and it'll look better and more authentic. As a bonus you won't ruin a washing machine.

Not as hard core as the Levi factory where they use Lasers to burn the surface of the jeans and then throw them in volcanic rock tumblers. Just so they can look like ###### when they are new lol.

 

I cut boonies so they they just shade my eyes instead of flopping down to my nose when they are drenched in sweat. Usually just super glue the brim back on

 

Tis a good kit, time for a rucksack and facepaint for a photoshoot!
