Grim Posted September 2, 2010 Report Share Posted September 2, 2010 (edited) Picked these up at the Weekender. Curious points to note are, Though they are meant to be similar or identical to the 95 pattern cut of UK combat clothing the materiel is very think and heavy compared to the light weight materiel of 95s. The trousers have no back pockets or hip pockets only the leg pockets, and the jacket has no zip chest pockets or front rank slide.

Slayer750 Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 Nutria Brown FTW! I'd love to get one of those M83s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crustyflap Posted September 4, 2010 Report Share Posted September 4, 2010 My buddy just sold his on the Bay for like $50 bucks. We ordered them direct from someplace in SA. Smelled terrible when it got here and had a blood stain in the bottom rear pocket. When my buddy was going thru his he found a small notebook that had handwritten notes on it detailing actions like ambushes and other things. It was dated 1996 so I don't really know what was going on in SA at the time but it must have been rough for the previous owner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
millest Posted September 5, 2010 Report Share Posted September 5, 2010 my other half says that some of that camo was at a surplus store we went to yesterday, lavenham army surplus in suffolk, ill be popping in there again a few weeks so ill see if they had the body armour and helmet covers and let you know. dude, let me know too ive got a set but i keep that one all clean and not used (for geek purposes) but would love one to skirmish in, even just the vest for a loadout. i might have to pop off to lavenham and pick them up if they have, shame josh sold all his but i guess it doesnt quite work with the terrain at tudders millest Quote Link to post Share on other sites
