CoolHeart_ASN Posted January 20, 2011 Report Share Posted January 20, 2011 (edited) MRK, I like your FLC. I'm thinking on a loadout based on it with a mesh CVC. Could you post some detail photos about the FLC backpanel? I want one too but with a config similar to the one seraph post some time ago, but i don't know how is attached the backpanel to the FLC. And for the one listed on ebay, you refer to the one in ACU? Kinnard, look at your backpanel better, your setup is very similar to the aws trauma vest/cqb vest backpanel setup. Really like it.

mrk Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Coolheart: I don't have my FLC panel with me here atm. For how it attaches to FLC there is two small buckles each side of the FLC. You can see one in my pic peaking under that GPS pouch. And then there is those black plastic loops just under the drag handle.

Danke Posted January 21, 2011 Report Share Posted January 21, 2011 Always a work in progress. Just want to say thanks to those of you in the SF teams for all your efforts in all the conflicts globaly. You guys allow us to enjoy emulating you and you know you like it Rad Try you winter camo opposite of the way it is now. White pants and green top; look at the trees in the background, snow on the ground & low the exposed branches up higher. That's a grea combo when moving through snowy areas. You can still carry the white top for when you get into someplace that's full snow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

msx361 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 SF impression. The camo base is going to be the base for a seal load out but different vest and gear ect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Wraith18A Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 No offense, but if you're going for the impression, stick with one camo pattern or the other. I've (almost) never seen a picture anywhere--nor come across it in my experience--that said it was OK to have an ACU top and DCU bottoms. About the only time I was "OK'ed" was when it was raining cats and dogs down in NOLA and I was wearing an old set of ECWCS in the woodland BDU scheme. Even then, they said either put on the tops and bottoms or go without. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sgt. Kinnaird Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I agree with the above. Also, if you are really going for an SF kit, you probably want to run a different second line. That PACA/RRV/spine plate combo is not something you really see SF using. Id suggest a RBAV, MarCIRAS, SFLCS/EI/MBAV plate carrier, RAV, SOHPC, ARHPC, or mayflower/velocity systems carriers to name a few. And you might want to consider an M9 or a Glock as opposed to a 1911. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) Well i didnt really state a unit i was going for, its just bits pulled from lots of different pics for a generic impression. This is one of them. I had ciras and didnt get on with it, it was too big and a bit stiff for me (giggidy) even with out plates. The RRV does its job better for me and its more comfortable to wear. Oh and after spending silly amounts of money making a kimber warrior before the chinese im going to wear it with as many load outs i can get away with Thanks for the input though.

Blackjack13 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) I assume you know, but the pic you've posted is of UK SAS as part of Task Force Black. They're not American, so aren't really a valid point of reference for a USSF themed loadout. Edited January 23, 2011 by Blackjack13 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I was under the impression it was joint task force uk/us? If not then im sry to offend you guys, ive obviously made a mistake as a ref picture showing sf mixing camo. Maybe its just the sas that do then and not the us sf as no one has a picture of it. Same with rrv and 1911, il take your expert advice Thanks again for your input. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ezek_GrayFox Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 Plenty of U.S pics out there with mixed top and bottom camos, majority of pics seem to be NSW though, As a Generic USSF loadout goes i like it, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Blackjack13 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) TF: Black was joint operations, but I believe the photo just shows UKSF. However there is one wearing the stars and stripes, but his equipment (esp. guns) matches the others. There are some pics (can't tell you of whom though, saw them on MilitaryPhotos a while back) of USSF in mixed camo. What comes to mind is AOR1/Tri-Colour (both desert and woodland if memory serves, definitely the first former). I'd find them for you, but don't fancy trawling through 350 pages!

msx361 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I wouldnt ask or expect you to either. The us flag is probably what lead me to believe it was mixed. I know that there is sas in that pic but i thought black group or whatever they were called were an international group, but in that photo were us and sas. I guess we will never know as none of us were there Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jonjes0n Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 that flag is the f**k Al Qaeda patch made for american troops, it was bought by the british guys until they had a UK version made. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
msx361 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 (edited) lol sounds about right. Thanks for the clarification pal. Oh and thanks Ezek_GrayFox Edited January 23, 2011 by msx361 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know that there is sas in that pic but i thought black group or whatever they were called were an international group, but in that photo were us and sas. I guess we will never know as none of us were there TF Black was the UK component of TF 121 (as it was known at one stage, and which contained not only US SOF components), and comprised UKSF (plus support) assets only. They lived next door to a US team and adopted a few of the American bits and pieces during the course of their deployment, i.e. the 'F*ck al Qaeda' badge (which later featured a Union Jack for TF Black members) and Crye MC Combats. The use of US camofluage (ACU and 3-colour desert) was deliberate, British forces were officially assigned to southern Iraq only - therefore those running around central and northern Iraq were 'dressed up' to resemble US forces in order to avoid obvious media attention.

CoolHeart_ASN Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 TF 121 was also know as TF 145, TF 88... Depending on the period of time. On my team, we are bassing our loadouts on the differents TF that was assigned to TF 145 (TF Black, green, blue & red) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CoolHeart_ASN Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Thanks for the id! The first from the right (the one with the M4 with DD RIS and Magpull CTR) seems to wear a HPC. I read that DBT AW FAPC and FAPC Gen.II are the most used by this aussies. Regards! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
