PMC/Merc loadout

[G-Force]

Same here, using real deal photos can help when planning a loadout although I base my loadouts mainly on practacality and a bit of looks. When I wanted to go for a Greek commando (I'm half Greek) look I used this website:

Ok, have dug up some pics of me in a PMC/PSD/Merc style loadout.

First one is really for CQB, CP or Vehicle Work. (I'm the guy in the middle)

Helikon Commanders Jacket

Shemagh, Jeans and BB Cap

Lowa Elite boots

Oakley Gloves and Blackhawk knee pad

SVS Personal Body Armour (ACM Clone)

MP9 with Eotech 552 and Surefire Scout Light

Colt 1911 in Serpa holster and 2x spare 1911 mags worn on belt

WAS Go-bag with 6x MP9 mags and other essentials

This is a dead easy loadout, (minus the weapons and attachments) and can be put together for less than £100 using clone gear, ebay and whatever you've got in your cupboard. I have used it for woodland, but it works best for CQB obviously.

This next pic was taken on a Mil-sim day when I was a Merc guarding African diamond mines Although I have a rather snazzy PDW here, it would work better with an AK variant (wood based) or a very basic (Non-RIS) M4, G3, Uzi or Galil. (Could even work with MP5 or a shottie). Anyway think old-school 70s/80s weaponry and you wont go far wrong (My AKSU broke half way through the day and my son was using my AKM hence the PDW).

OD cap and tee-shirt (the more washed out the better)

WAS TMV vest

Lowa Elite boots and Oakley gloves in tan

Claw Gear trousers in Rooivalk (I believe its a pakistani camo pattern but it is used in africa too)

AK74-SU w/ 5x mags

Colt 1911 w/ 3x mags

Again another really cheap load-out to assemble. Substitute the vest for a cheapo chest rig and the trousers for any camo trousers, (for f**ks sake dont use multicam or MTP!) and dig out a load of washed out gear from your cupboards and your ready to go.

The last set of pics is my version of a high-end PMC Ops team. This is quite a dear loadout (dont ask how much the rifle costs...) and probably the most bulky. I wear it mainly for woodland (I substitute the black Helikon for either a Tan or OD one depending on the season).

Tan 5.11 Cap (with "Surprise c*** Fags" patch), Oakley Gloves and Lowa boots.

Black Helikon Sharkskin jacket

Shemagh

SOCOM Camo Claw Gear GenII trousers

Pantac RG RAV vest

Custom TM/HurricanE Sig 552 w/ 10x mags and 4x ACOG sight

TM Sig P226R w/ 5x mags

Devgru SEALS headset and Motorola radio

In truth this pretty much my standard mil-sim set up. I swap the vests and weapons around but I really like the SOCOM trousers. Most of the other BW guys also have a set, and like multicam they work in most enviroments. I tendnot to wear camo tops but in summer would swap in either a black/od polo shirt.

Hope this has given you some ideas or help. If you want any advice or have any questions just fire away

Ok here is a pic of me and some of my team mates in full PMC mode at Gunman on 29th May:

I'm 2nd from the right and my kit list is:

CYMA AKSU w/ 6x 150rd midcaps

Custom SIG P226R w/ 3 mags

Brownwater Logo Polo-shirt and Ball-cap

Genuine Arabic Scarf

Tan Oakley Gloves

Tan 5.11 Trousers

RG Pantac RAV

Tan Lowa Desert Boots

AKs FTW

Mp5...tut tut

Mp5...tut tut

Anything compact (for vehicle-borne ops) goes with this loadout so the MP5 is fine imho.

NO AK's FTW!

merc loadouts are the most simple to do, a merc will put on what ever he wants, keep it casual but practical. throw on what you feel comfortable in and be sure its durable enough to withstand you crawling though the dirt.

as its been said many of times, denim pants t-shirt and a low profile vest.

if you do a lot of airsofting id guess you have a collection of vests......what you do thrown on a random pair of trousers, then though on a plate carrier(im sure you have on) be sure it is molle then throw a few ammo pouches on......grow a beard(or draw one on if you a kid) then bish bash bosh your all done

Doesnt need to be MOLLE. Plain old body-armour (I use PACA) with a chest rig is freakin' ninja mate

They are. Two mags are taped together for speedy reloads.
