DPM picture contest as requested by LJ


Recommended Posts

I remember seeing you attacking outpost 7 i was up on heartbreak ridge trying to organise my rabble and decide what objective to take next. (OP7 or stag camp) I saw one of those scorpions in the shop tent and was gutted i was like wow i want one but zero one had brought me a KSC Glock18C, (now thats a fun gun lol) i would have bought a scorpion if i had the cash. how did yours handle?

 

Grim

 

 

It's great, aside from it's small size it is a decent little gun. Obviously difficult to use as a primary in that situation as it lacks the range/punch of a full AEG. But it's handy for when things get up close and personal. Also for a marui it has a ridiculous amount of metal in it giving it a nice weight. :)

Same here, tbh GZ for me is mostly about the social side and the shooting is a bonus lol

 

I sat out of about 4 hours of saturday to chill, eat, drink, buy scorpion etc lol and only played about half of the sunday.

 

Was going to take out my DPM kit but never bothered in the end

Anyone know if them surplus SAS jakets are 95 pattern dpm? Thanks!

 

EDIT:: I talked with my team leader about this really cheak britmilsurplus website... He asked me what grade they were advertising on the website.... Grade 2... He told me that most grade two things are beat to hell and back, may have buttons missing, will be faded as hell, will have stiching repaired or completely frayed, holes in it, etc... IS this true about britmilsurplus? Has anyone ordered things from there?b IS the stuff ###### and beat to hell and not worth the money? I need to know desperately, as there is no contact info on the sight, and I definitely don't want to throw my money away....

Got a link for the site you're talking about mate? Kind of hard to give advice when we can't see which site you're talking about.

 

Generally I wouldn't recommend grade 2, I mean yeah it'll do the job for airsofting but it will probably be in a pretty beaten up and very faded state; granted there's grade 2 and then there's grade 2.99, but that system is a bit too general for my liking, you can't truly tell what you're getting. Grade 1 you're mostly alright with, especially with PLCE webbing and bergens, that stuff lasts forever.

Firstly, I highly doubt the SAS would ever ever ever wear WebTex gear, it is generally regarded to be *suitcase* quality. Regular Army soldiers hold this opinion, so the SAS are highly unlikely to touch WebTex.

 

Something like http://www.britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk/is.../shopscr92.html would be better, they are still in use in Iraq by the SAS, and although not waterproof they'll be water repellent and you can always treat it with some NikWax..

 

 

this site... And it does have contact info upon further searching, just not easy to find it....

Temperate PLCE, Light Machine Gunner

 

Comes in both light and heavy variants. Not an accurate impression of anyone in particular, but I think this is a load-out that could well be used for greenside ops.

Shame about the colouration on the boonie, but I think the bright sun may have brought out the differences to a bit more than usual. Needs a sling and cam cream but was rather pressed for time unfortunately.

nice looking loadout you got there

Cheers. :)

 

 

The only side I'd ding ya for would be empty looking webbing ;)

 

Otherwise very nice bit of kit, even with the repro jhat it's looking better then most.

The annoying part is I have a proper issue large-brim boonie sitting right here, but it's just barely 1 size too small, goes on but feels like my brain is being squeezed, I need to find an issue short-brim from somewhere. Webbing If I'm honest I've got very little experience wearing during real training, and certainly never used it in an LMG role, so I basically put as many pouches on the belt as would fit and had to make do, I do have a stack of other ones here (entrenching tool, bayonet, double ammo etc) but wearing a small belt adjusted right down I can't really fit much on; I'll have to try and pack it all together more when I do a normal rifleman. Thanks for the feedback though mate.

 

Also, to save any potential confusion as happened last time, kit list:

 

Base line:

 

-Short-brim boonie hat/Mk6 Helmet with cover

-Football shirt type material issue green t-shirt

-CS 95 lightweight jacket (raf badges)

-CS 95 lightweight trousers

-Issue assault boots

-(Old style armour plate carrier)

 

Webbing:

 

-Small belt and standard webbing yoke (extra strap material cable-tied up)

-Issue DPM hip-pad

-2 * PLCE box magazine pouch

-1 * Water bottle pouch

-1 * Utility pouch

 

Weapon:

 

-A&K M249 Para, barrel heat shield removed

-20 * Inert 5.56mm in disintegrating link

a pic from last sunday:

p31080812271rb0.jpg

 

the M14 in the pic is not mine ,i've an m4 ;)

 

the loadout:

 

DPM Desert S95 Trousers

UBACS DPM Desert

DPM Desert Bush hat (not in the pic)

 

Osprey body armour with:

arm protectors

sds dcu canteen pouch

2x osprey medical pouch

osprey magazine panel (6 colt magazines)

admin panel

plce dpm resi pouch

2x proud sapi replica L

 

i tried this loadout with the arm protectors, as the ubacs is not padded in the area around the pouches and this area is sensitive to contact with low branches when i run.
