Full Metal Jacket Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Has any of you seen Full Metal Jacket? If so do you know where I can buy a vest like the one Private Joker has? Link to post Share on other sites
FireFox Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Has any of you seen Full Metal Jacket? If so do you know where I can buy a vest like the one Private Joker has? A while ago and I forgot what the vest looked like. My guess would be ebay. Edit: I dont know if any of these might be it. http://search.ebay.com/Vietnam-Vests_W0QQfromZR40QQsojsZ1 Link to post Share on other sites

Boba_Fett Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 You are looking for a M1955 Fragmentation Jacket used by the U.S. Marine Corps New ones are very hard to get Link to post Share on other sites
HardCoil Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Wow this is something else than the usual high-speed spec-ops wannabe stuff. Kudos for actually going through with this concept, it looks great, and it sounds like a lot of fun if you also add a few role-playing elements. Link to post Share on other sites
futbolpunk Posted May 22, 2005 Report Share Posted May 22, 2005 Well, we don't have a 'nam team nor anyone who tries to replicate it, but when I saw this photo-op, Vietnam immediately popped into my head. (Gun was not damaged, though a forgotten $20 radio was ruined. Also, this is not me. ) Link to post Share on other sites

futbolpunk Posted May 23, 2005 Report Share Posted May 23, 2005 Thank you! Also, if you guys would have read my post, I said that we were in no way trying to mimick Vietnam. It just happened and made me think of it. Link to post Share on other sites

Catchv22 Posted May 24, 2005 Report Share Posted May 24, 2005 It's a nice pic, but it's not a Vietnam Pic. If you collected the gear, you'd appreciate the difference. I agree it's nice, but it's not meant to be in this thread. Link to post Share on other sites
