mysl1 Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Amazing! AWS chestrig combo looks killer! + for having a delta beard I personally prefer paraclete concealment carrier over pantac bodyarmor. They cost around 90$ so it's not "expensive".

Choosker Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 The VTAC 2pt sling is a bit outdated, isn't? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-MOOSE- Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I'd like to see that second kit that's all black with M81's. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sgt. Kinnaird Posted October 4, 2009 Report Share Posted October 4, 2009 (edited) Is that really an AWS chest rig? Looks a lot more like a Blackhawk or possibly Eagle Ind. one. I cant recall AWS making one like that. The one that AWS made has 3 M4 mag pouches, and 2 MBITR pouches. That 3004 is a pretty sweet touch though!!! Edited October 4, 2009 by Sgt.

Seraphein Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Cool place, can't really see the point about those blue lights switched on your SF helmet lights though... As for the confederate flag, you earlier stated it was aesthetical, but I think it just brings a lot of PD to your rig, even if it isn't intended to be an impression. That aside, cool photos and location. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As for the confederate flag, you earlier stated it was aesthetical, but I think it just brings a lot of PD to your rig, even if it isn't intended to be an impression. adding a "personal" touch takes away from an impression? I really don't think so... As far as Confederate flags, go, I've seen Mil wear 'em. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

MRE begs for eotech 551 with larue mount Hahaha!!! Thanks mysl1!! The delta beard is the best I know that the paraclete is a cheap armor, but on this timeline (98-01) they still using the PT-1. Paraclete gear started to be used since 2001-2002. I´ve got some pics from 2000-2001 with EO551 in use, but the COMP M2 was used too. As I say, one COMP M2 (repro) is coming with a mount base for the carry handle. Also a cheekpiece will be installed LOL! The VTAC 2pt sling is a bit outdated, isn't? Choosker is totally outdated, I know I need and older two point sling. I'd like to see that second kit that's all black with M81's. For sure, but not all in black, LBT1547A and EI SAS .223 FB pouch will be in OD LOL! Is that really an AWS chest rig? Looks a lot more like a Blackhawk or possibly Eagle Ind. one. I cant recall AWS making one like that. The one that AWS made has 3 M4 mag pouches, and 2 MBITR pouches. That 3004 is a pretty sweet touch though!!! As choosker said, the AWS strike vest hold 4 m4 mags. The one I have, also, is an operator custom... and it´s a "*suitcase*" because the operator was thiner than me and he cut the chest straps, so I couldn´t use the fwd plate because the rig places too up, hahahaha!!!!!!! LOL!!! For the 3004 it´s my favourite but it feels soooooo lonely!!! hahaha!!! On Oct 16th is my birthday so if anyone of you wants to make me a present... LOL!!!!! Thanks to all!!!

matfar Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Choosker is totally outdated, I know I need and older two point sling. I think the MRE is outdated too for a 2001 impression, in 98 we could saw some MRE like handguards, but unrailed, maybe a KAC MRE ancestror, don't know the manufacturer, but the railed one was made after 2002 IIRC.

Matfar as usual you are right. Till 2002 the MRE doesn´t exist. The one used was very similar to the MK12 Mod0 handguard, but it´s very similar to the MRE. I was looking for a similar handguard, but is really hard to find. The correct gun for this impression/loadout could be a M4 RIS or an M933 as I read on some books Regards!

matfar Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 A M4A1 with RIS is perfect for 2001, and you can even have a free float handguard if you like the system, it's been in use in Tora Bora. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hispeed1 Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 @ Skyflash: one word for your pics-incredible... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CoolHeart_ASN Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Matfar, it´s very possible that, finally I´ll use a M933 (I really like this gun! hahaha!) and thanks again for your info. A few more... this time with pantac 1195J + lbt 1547a (don´t like too much this loadout...) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
greensta Posted October 6, 2009 Report Share Posted October 6, 2009 @ hispeed, seraphein, mysl1 and others: obviously tri-colour and acu are the ways forward for special forces loadouts BUT could one go for a PCU level 5 jacket in acu or grey or perhaps a LEVEL 4 windshirt in grey as an top and say tri-colour bottoms?? cheers oh and sa-weet photos to all!!

The way forward? I'd recommend an AOR1/2 set-up; USMC desert and woodland MARPAT would be easier to get. I'd really like to see a digital desert/woodland set-up in here or the SEAL threads. Everyone has incredible gear and set-ups, but I've mostly seen M81 woodland, DCU, ACU or Multicam. I've yet to see digital BDU's for a more modern SOF/USSOCOM set-up, although the aforementioned patterns are still used . I'm still putting something together. As for a PCU L5 jacket/L4 windshirt with DCU (tri-color desert), go for it. Its been done-I've pics of that set-up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
