Troubadour Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Polish GROM already uses MultiSham (well something exactly like it) So they've had a unit to base it off of for a while. Link to post Share on other sites
Dentonboy Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Oh noes, mixed colours with multicam... Link to post Share on other sites
Chevieblazer Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 meh, i think i'll stick with Ghosts/Transformers for now. According to some Army Personel from the Spangdalen Base, MC will be official around 2010 anyway apart from that, anybody know what NVG mounts they have there? Link to post Share on other sites
Misfit Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 CAG have been using Multicam for a long time. AFSOC units, specifically JTAC/PJ have also been using it for quite a while. It's not exactly news. Still, thanks Chimpy and Renalan for the photos. Link to post Share on other sites

Dentonboy Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 I wonder if they all stood down-wind for a while... Incidently - vest i.d.? And are they Glocks in the holsters? Link to post Share on other sites
raito Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Just a quick question here, does that mean MC can be bought and used by any country, so it's not just for a specific country, do you get what I mean? you know, national pride and all that... Link to post Share on other sites
Dentonboy Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 I don't see why not. As long as said country can afford it. Link to post Share on other sites

Dentonboy Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 I have also been told by a person who is also serving that Multicam is oft worn by the SAS. They also wear ARPAT - whether this is to look like US soldiers in order to save their arses from blue on blue or to fool Johnny Insurgent , I don't know. But I was surprised.

But I was surprised. trust me, they do it for no other reason except for that they can. The same reason they grow beards and long hair. They do it to look different from regular forces because they are more ego driven than they care to admit. @misfit: my first assumption was GSG9 but i later confirmed they were not. Frustratingly, nobody will confirm who they were. Darkchild Link to post Share on other sites
