Blue4 Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 And here's the last pic for this thread at the moment - Once my original Erdl trousers are fixed there will be more!! Over to you now Boba! Red Link to post Share on other sites
Boba_Fett Posted August 23, 2005 Report Share Posted August 23, 2005 Hm, what cap is this on pic number 2? Marine basecap? Ammo belt looks like a linked MG42/MG3 version? But the pics are great (just can´t open the second and the last but I keep trying ) The use of silencers was quite unusual in vietnam. Haven´t seen much pics with one mounted, mostly with an S&W M39 Hush Puppy and the others mounted on M16. The M14 sniper outfit would IMHO look "smarter" with an ERDL outfit But it looks great also in the olive pattern. This time I only add two real pictures (It is not me or airsoft!!!!) of M16 with silencer as there is nothing new at my tiger load out and my third pattern olive drab tropical issue jacket arrived today , flak jacket is on its way and I first have to look for trousers and a mitchel helmet cover before there will be some new pics Link to post Share on other sites

Lord Blackgoat Posted August 24, 2005 Report Share Posted August 24, 2005 boba : the first pic comes from a book about LRRPs in vietnam (written and pictured by one of them), I could post some more pics of it when back home. At least two other pics show silencers, one mounted on M16, the other on XM177E2... nice pics btw, I like this period's style! edit : I just read the previous pages, the collapsible stock version of the M655 is as said the M653 (released by TM under the name "Barnes Version"). At those times, going from fixed to collapsible and vice versa was easy, but latest US laws about civilian weapons (with issues of non concealed weapons) obliged manufacturers to avoid the switch to be done. and this ammo belt looks like MAG/GPMG/M240 to me... cheers!

You can tell from the grass, etc. that there is deffinately a helo there. Aaron Link to post Share on other sites

Boba_Fett Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Don´t panic My OD outfit is supposed to be ready for battle next week Sometimes I feel like a huge Barbie Link to post Share on other sites
Karnage Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 The ro655 is not a ro653 with solid stock, the 655 was an experimental rifle, with accurized barrel, no carry handle, and supposedly came with a Leatherwood Scope. A 653 with solid stock would be a 652. Colt does make a difference between them. Link to post Share on other sites
Blue4 Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 rofl does 'Hanoi-Jane Barbie' come complete with 'Saigon Ken' On another note I very, very nearly bought a grease-gun today.....hmmm LRRP-tastic.

Blazer Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 wooo i spy tiger stripes god how i love them so. whats the cammo the guy wearing bottom right? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I believe it's called Duck Hunter, but I could be wrong. Anyway yet another variant camo BDU as used in Nam. Link to post Share on other sites
airsoftfreak14 Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Nope, that's Tiger stripes man, and I think the Duck hunter camo you are refering to is called shadow grass. Link to post Share on other sites
