Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

I'm currently working on converting a BDU blouse of mine into a RAID mod blouse.

My decision came as follows:

"Hey that looks pretty cool, wonder if there's any for sale."

"Nice-DAMN! That's expensive."

"Hm, I could make one, but that's not gonna happen."

"Yeah, not gonna happen..."

"Guess it's gonna happen."

So I'll post pics when done.

 
I really like this setup I have here.

(Enhanced) LBV-88 with a personal ALICE setup. A couple of notes, half the tape holding the surplus strap is original gp tape that the guy still had on it when giving it away. The buttpack is dated 69, so I reckon it has some value to it past my kit. Also although the best is slightly off-kilter to my belt, it's still incredibly comfortable when drawing from either my LBV or the belt setup.

These days I'm rocking a US Army UCP Digital Camouflage loadout.

I fancied something different and wasn't bothered by having camouflage that's basically useless, so I figured I'd wear the US Army's $5Billion mistake.

I stand out like a sore thumb, but I love the look. Haters gonna hate though, eh?

The loadout comprises:

  • US Army ACH Helmet, Issued UCP camouflage Cover and Revision Wolfspider Goggles
  • US Army Interceptor OTV protective vest system
  • US Army issue wicking combat shirt
  • US Army issue ACU combat trousers
  • US Army issue knee pads
  • Lowa desert combat boots
  • Mechanix M-Pact gloves

The camouflage actually does work quite well against the concrete buildings at my local site, but in grass I may as well wear luminous orange...

I'd say the key positive of the loadout is that the US Army put a lot of time, money and effort into making the kit comfortable. So despite the weight of the kit, it feels great to wear and isn't crazy warm either.

The sniper in the photos is my Ares Amoeba Striker AS01.

  • Ares Amoeba Striker AS01
  • Short outer barrel
  • Action Army hop unit
  • CrazyJet inner barrel
  • Bespoke Airsoft cylinder kit
  • 90 degree GAP sear
  • Ares flash hider
  • 3.5x - 10x scope
  • Maple Leaf Deception bucking
  • Maple Leaf concave nub


Photos in this post were taken by the lovely @Arwen at yesterday's game day. (Viper Strike Airsoft in Dundee.)

Yeah I don't get the haters - maybe due to only playing at one woodland site so far - you can see almost everyone easily at these ranges unless they are behind decent cover. Amazing how much mtp I see in winter. But not trying to knock that either, just would be cool to see more variety. I'm going to be sticking out like a sore thumb in this next...with drop leg mag pouches. Division ish.

Made plenty of people jump on either my team or the opposition whilst wearing Flecktarn. One mate says it's like a blur, some simply just don't see you at all especially if you're still.

Then again how many people walk into a room and don't see someone if they're sitting dead still. Movement is a big give away hence why tiny slow movements can go undetected even at very close range. Add silence and it's ninja-tastic.

Think of a Lion hunting, creep, stop, creep, stop. Before dinner knows what's happening it's dead.

 
Mm I have been looking at flektarn a lot lately. It looks like it would be great for this time of year but I haven't seen it on the field yet ?. That's it, at the relatively short ranges I play, poor movement will give you away whether you are in a ghillie suit or UCP. Also depends how you like to play or maybe the respawning rules of the game. If I was sniping then I would priotorise my camo. But with unlimited spawning I like to push forward from cover to cover. Camo won't help you there! As long as you like what you wear then all good. 

 
At this time of year with a lot of green undergrowth dead and browned the desert version holds up well; Tropentarn. It's a little harder to find as a full kit but still possible. Flecktarn is the cheapest of the two and there's plenty of it on Fleabay for pittance.

Flecktarn, DPM and tiger are great camos for the UK outdoors. ?

 
Ok here where I'm at with my gear and loadout at the moment,pencott badlands camo,helmet and face protection cover homemade by myself(god bless wonder web and shit weather) face cover wraps around the back of my neck and is secured with velcro,sort of inspired by FSB I've got my AK just waiting for some time off work again to paint it up

A variation of my lumber-tac loadout.

No chest rig or mags because arp drum. Also camo pants instead of plain colours (green or grey) because reasons.

A quick list:

Clothing:

A-tacs FG pants

H&M green/black checkered shirt

Crispi Ranger Desert GTX boots

Mechanix FastFit gloves in guccicam

Condor ball cap with a bodged gopro mount, camera is a Hero 3 Silver

Valken Sierra goggles (which for some reason didn't fog today despite the rain)

OneTigris mesh mask

Belt is my standard battle belt, basically double pistol mag pouch, WAS m4 mag pouch, dump, radio, utility.

Backpack is a Condor Tidepool with a radio pouch attached. Didn't carry a bladder, used it to store a first aid kit and spare eyepro. Really liked it, allows for great mobility and low profile :)

Gun, not pictured: ARP 9, still stock, just a t1, foregrip and battery extension unit.

Excellent spot! And yes in a way. He was raised by wild dogs in Chernobyl, hense his stunted growth and facial features. Unfortunately he is only good for knawing at the enemies ankles, as you can see in the photo before, his loyalty is useless (bloody wild dogs). I have tried riding him many times but we won't get into that. He has never taken a hit in his life which really f***s everyone off. During early stages of training I named him Horse hoping it would help, but now we just call him Dog. We love him though.

Looks like I'm a speedsofter now.

 
A kit somewhere in between speed and milsim.

It's my milsim load bearing equipment mixed with my Austrian Summer blouse, M81 trousers, cheap kneeps, Adidas Gazelles (Supplementary Mockbas), and my personally modified scrim boonie.

The gun is a VFC Avalon I've modified to be a Colt SMG.
