The Crunchy Bunny Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Yeah, I'm going to get a Pantac MAP for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hendrix2247 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 What's with the velcro on the blouse? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC-1138 Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 It's the field coat, not the ACU Blouse Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 Yeah, thats the ECWCS outerlayer, not the utilities. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RC-1138 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 See I thought it was the M-65. How is the parka? We only got issued the POS wet whether gear and, granted nice, fleeces, no field coats or ECWCS. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 It's amazing. Really warm, very waterproof (I can submerge it completely and the water just beads off). The sizes tend to run a little large (that's a medium), but other then that, it's awesome, and I'd highly reccomend it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Loe Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 the black boots kill your whole set up. and your drop leg setup could use a re arrangement. damn your skinny boy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
reaper16 Posted December 13, 2008 Report Share Posted December 13, 2008 (edited) Of you untucked the pants it would look better methinks  btw when did you get so tall tcb? Edited December 13, 2008 by reaper16 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted December 14, 2008 Report Share Posted December 14, 2008 reaper, IDK it just kinda happened. I'm 6'2" right now. Â Loe, I agree that the leg rig looks like it could use some rearanging, but It's really functional right now. On the other hand, your "skinny boy" comment was well, creepy.

DapperDan Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Crunchy bunny, it would probaly look better with the coat tucked in. Â Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sarge133 Posted December 17, 2008 Report Share Posted December 17, 2008 Damn TCB you got tall. Looks good though. Â Where'd you get the ECWCS? I've been looking for one like that for awhile. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hispeed1 Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 CrunchyB, may I suggest tan boots and a deblouse? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The Crunchy Bunny Posted December 18, 2008 Report Share Posted December 18, 2008 Damn TCB you got tall. Looks good though. Where'd you get the ECWCS? I've been looking for one like that for awhile.   My local surplus store had a few on sale. $80 for the trousers, $100 for the top. I know entrygear has some, or you could order directly from the Propper Website.  HiSpeed, yeah, I hope to get some tan Belleville's or Bates for Christmas. But then again, that loadout was just to testout my gear for an upcoming MFR DA loadout, and since I didn'y have MARPAT MCCUU's yet, I decided to wear them over ACU's.

Fatal Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 The colors don't even appear to be the same, it looks much darker then the issued version. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rolling-thunder Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Well i was comparing it to the real thing.It doesn't have the wick away materials in the front top & bottom panels.It is a darker pattern.I like it though as i'm not actually trying to pass myself off as a real US serviceman{or 2 of them in my case} Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fatal Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Do you see what I see... U.S. Army 1st Sgt. Allison from Alpha Company, 2-23 Infantry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, takes cover while surveying the area in Muqdadiyah, Iraq, Dec. 19, 2007. (U.S. Army Photo/Spc.

HaVoC Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Compared to the issue one, that ACS looks absolutely TERRIBLE. Pattern is way off, sweat-wicking materials look like balls...the real one is an awesome shirt, but that just looks...ugh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Xander.P Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Do you see what I see... what that is surname is allison or that he has some pens in his pocket:) yeh the colours look way off but then again this may just be to with lighting and such and after a couple of washes im sure the darkness will fade Quote Link to post Share on other sites
