Pictures of your latest acquisition V2.0


Recommended Posts

Yup, and before anyone starts blubbing about "where AM Mah Postt1337!!!??", i've deleted broken links, arguing, spam, general "LOL" comments and wasted the last hour trawling through to save the thread from being closed AND my dinner/tea is now cold...

 

 

and that makes me ANGRY...

I think rhino has done a commendable job here, and some might argue one that was long overdue. Between dull arguments about how to hold your rifle properly, not having the correct shade of brown pouches and general insulting of other members, this thread had become a shambling 'off-topic' section of sorts. Nearly 40 pages have been culled by rhino; how on Earth did it ever get into that state?

 

I'm not a moderator, but I am a supporter of this site, and so I hope that all of us here can do our bit to stop this happening again B)

It's been a long time hunting and waiting, but I finally got my elusive ballistic vest.  Got it "used," but these suckers are NOT found anywhere else except if you're in the armed forces (or patiently waiting for an eBay auction).

Or the War & Peace Show! :D

 

How much did this run you, out of interest? The Russian guy I bought my issue ACUs (new with supply tags, IR tabs, wrinkle-free treatment, etc) from had Point Blank IBAs in all colours (woodycam, CB, tricolour and UCP) for £350 (about $700-ish). They came with soft armour, too. All new with tags.

Mine is "used" so price tag is a lot lower. Still for milsim games, I hope I don't have to encounter anyone shooting beyond 700FPS to prove the ballistic capabilities of the vest, ha-ha!

 

Got mine under $300 shipped from the U.K., believe or not. :)
