Maybe because it is our patches you are wearing, making a mockery of our very careers?

 

I don't wear any unit patches. Only patches I wear are US flags and a callsign patch.

 

And nevermind, don't want to start an argument.

AZN KID - Depends what sort of timeframe you're looking at. Looking at the pics you've posted initially I'd say that - judging by the pakol and waistcoast - the impression is leaning towards 2001/2 and therefore there's quiet a bit that looks 'off', but as previously mentioned it all depends the timeframe.

 

Black ASKZ - The pics are good, but apart from wearing the SF patch there's nothing in them that suggests SF to me - I know that this might seem harsh but this is my opinion. Wrong secondaries, wrong colour rigs, lids look to uniform etc.

I was shooting for early 2001/2. So what could I do to improve it?

I'd swap the M81 for 3-colour desert, the fleece and vest combo is good so I'd stick with it. Swap the stock out for something else, don't recall seeing Crane stocks on Army SF at that particular time; and I'd go for an M9 over the Glock. That said, you could equally go for an AFO-look (based on dressing like a local and sporting the Glock) but again this would require a bit of tweaking with the set-up of the M4 and probably swapping M81 for 3-colour desert. PEQ-2 is spot on though, whether you go SF or AFO. I'd also get a chest rig of some description, something like a Chicom or maybe a BHI .223 rig (i.e. relatively lightweight and slimlined) and maybe wear it over the fleece/t-shirt but under the vest.

I'm looking at switching up my kit a bit, as I've been running the same PC for at least 3 years now, I would like to try a chest rig and was wondering what sorts (if any) chest rigs have been used by the SF groups in the past few years. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies.

Check out Mayflower chest rigs.
