R-KivE Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Hi there, I really like the M90 patterns and am considering ordering a BDU. Does anyone have this camo in the UK? I would like to know if it will be ok for woodland, and hope it will blend and not stand out too much. Also does anybody know anyone who has successfully painted their weapon in this camo? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites
Mat Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 There was a load of it at the Gunman Midlands Airsoft Carboot recently. I'm sure if you dropped them an email they could probably tell you who it was selling it off, I seem to remember it was going relatively cheap and it was still there when we left.

apmaman Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Well Sweden is in Europe and most European camo's work well in the UK. It should work pretty well but I have no proof, just the basic idea that most of Europe has similar vegetation so camo's should work well all over. Link to post Share on other sites

R-KivE Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 any idea on postage time from tacupgear? Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerfall Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 http://www.landwarriorairsoft.com/acatalog...er_Pattern.html Get it there ^ they're the win Anyway, i dunno about painting a gun in that camo like... might look slightly garish. It is bloody effective, i'd buy some if it wasn't oats so expensive. Link to post Share on other sites
R-KivE Posted February 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 Landwarrior are out of stock, but ive emailed them to see when they will restock. cheers. Yeh see what your saying bout the paint, I may use less contrasting colours to get more of a blend, not sure yet. Or might just do larger camo shapes so its not as detailed if you get me. Found a basic tutorial on how to paint in that style and it came out ok Link to post Share on other sites
Spacemonkey Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 That's not the real stuff- that looks like Tacgear kit. They are quite good though www.tacgear.com Originals are a different design and have a slightly waxy waterproof feel to them and incorporate a kind of mini gaiter. And, yes, they work very well in bright green forest. Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 You can buy from here, a pair of BDU trousers workout for <£40 http://www.garderoben.se/produkt.php?id=920 Edit: Sorry just realised your after UK supplier Link to post Share on other sites
R-KivE Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 I actually prefer the look of the Tacgear stuff. Landwarrior say a couple of weeks and they will have new stock. Cheers for the link Peanut. Is there a picture/gear thread for M90 camo? tried searching but couldn't find. Link to post Share on other sites
Robinio Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Firstly I like to say, That the one spacemonkey shows is a real or close copy, It's made to resist water but if you wash it to many times the protection will go off. For a real Genuine the prices is about 500-600 swedish "kronor" Ill say about 40-50 English pound? Its very good at hiding in grass and especially high grass and in dense terrain. I don't know any UK supplier but I believe TACGear makes a Copy of the M90K witch is the dessert verision. Good luck... /Rob To R-KivE Maybe you should start one? I've got loads of pictures with M90 Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 R-KivE Just remembered the other link I have buried in my bookmarks. Again a Swedish site but prices are pretty good so may be cheaper to oder and pay postage than through a UK distributor, anyway have a look. http://www.surplus.se/component/option,com...,100/Itemid,26/ I also like the M90 pattern, probably because I spend 8 months working over there last year and the boys and girls were often see around the palace in Stockholm. Never did get round to buying any though, cash too tight. Link to post Share on other sites
Robinio Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Peanut The you linked to has genuine M90 I belive. Now one more thing "Lätt" witch means light is a lighter fabric however I've never used it but I don't thinks it protects from water as much as the original M90 Fabric.

Peanut Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hi Robinio, Yes I believe it is genuine surplus. In fact you can even buy ex military vehicles from the site so they must have a direct link into the Swedish armies logistics group. Link to post Share on other sites
R-KivE Posted February 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Thanks for the links etc guys, really helpful. Ive started an M90 Picture thread (<clicky) so please get some pictures of your gear! Link to post Share on other sites
Robinio Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Hi Robinio, Yes I believe it is genuine surplus. In fact you can even buy ex military vehicles from the site so they must have a direct link into the Swedish armies logistics group. Yeah, but those vehicles have no engines if I remember correctly.

Peanut Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Didn't realise that. I suppose it would help if I could read what was on the site Link to post Share on other sites
Robinio Posted February 20, 2009 Report Share Posted February 20, 2009 Yeah, However our old Armoured vehicles are the volvos, everyone knows how safe they are in crashes (just kidding about "armoured") Link to post Share on other sites
R-KivE Posted February 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2009 Hey guys, ive found another UK place that sells the M90 gear, But Im not sure how good the quality is and if the colour is right, can anyone tell me? http://www.firsttactical.com/category_s/118.htm Link to post Share on other sites
Peanut Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Nice find if the colours are correct - I know it says current issues but.... - prices are pretty good. Link to post Share on other sites
Robinio Posted February 23, 2009 Report Share Posted February 23, 2009 Looks Genuine but I can't remember anyone having butt pockets... Can any Swede confirm that? Link to post Share on other sites
