rolling-thunder Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Anyone know if you can get multicam shorts, UK or abroad? Thanks, Rob. Peacocks sold them a while back or at least a rough approximation of multicam. Link to post Share on other sites

Massumma Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Do people wear webless soft armors such as the paca just for the look? Seems sort of pointless to have that extra weight when you don;t need the ballistic protection. Link to post Share on other sites

Seems sort of pointless to have that extra weight when you don;t need the ballistic protection. Everything i wear i wear for the look.It has to have function though,in the colder UK weather the extra heat from wearing armour is handy on top of which it's better than get shot in the tit on a cold day?Multicam is practical but it's still worn for the look or we'd all be wearing our home Countries uniforms where we can get them.

msx361 Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Also if you are a tin ribs like me it can help the vest over the top fit properly as it pads you out more Link to post Share on other sites

Well, I wear a Replica with Foam Inserts, it takes the Sting out of close-range BB and is quite light-weight. If you are talking about the real one I agree with you tough.

StarMonkee Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Ok was having a bit of a rough day yesterday so I've only just took a quick pic of my multicam kit. Am using OD for now as am saving the £150+ for the pouches lol Link to post Share on other sites

Macragge Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Great kit. I know how those days go too, I was dead sick the other week with the flu... so I took a picture of me and all my gear. I've been thinking of getting those hi-tec multicam pants and jacket. We'll have to see though, they'll be last on the agenda. Good stuff mate. Link to post Share on other sites
uscmCorps Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Bought a set of the UR-Tactical replica Combat Knee pads to compare to my real Crye Combat Knee Pads. They look decent, but the don't perform the same: The rubber tan cap on the Crye pads, when deformed by small rocks and such, return to it's original form. The tan caps on the UR-Tactical pads are made from hard plastic instead of rubber, so when you get small dents in it from taking a knee... those dents are there to stay... forever. The black part of the Crye pads are made from nice closed cell foam that gives the user decent padding. The black part of the UR-Tactical pads are made from some kind of foam, but they don't have much compression which is key to comfort. In terms of looks, the UR-Tactical is very close except for those horizontal treads across the tan cap... which I actually kinda like as they do seem to give better traction. The tan color is very close match to that of the Crye pads, and they fit in both UR-Tactical Combat pants and the Gen 1 and Gen 2 Crye Combat Pants. Thought I'd share.

-Angel- Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 (edited) Do people not wear soft armour with multicam? I've only seen one pic so far with a tan PACA... I wear a multicam beez combat systems [bCS] NIJ cover when I use chestrigs with my combat shirt. Otherwise I wear an Eagle CIRAS, which covers all the bases. BCS Cover, foam inserts, MP5 Chestrig on top: Do people wear webless soft armors such as the paca just for the look? Seems sort of pointless to have that extra weight when you don;t need the ballistic protection. As for wearing actual soft armour.... I've just got hold of a set of level III to put in my CIRAS, I'll see how it goes. Its mainly for the excercise, just like the 8Kg of EBR and pouches stuffed with items.
