Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

May be the light but the brown doesn't look red enough

Still a nice find though.

 
^^Pic's not loading, Russ :(

In that picture they look way more acceptable than those Begadi opfor objects which some on here attempted to claim were in fact a reasonable choice of apparel in which to airsoft, on the grounds that they were based on Rhodesian camouflage.

...I think we can conclusively put this issue to bed:​
Rhodesian camo = gear that may well help to conceal people in lush vegetation​
vs​
BE-X Opfor camo = gear which may well help to conceal people at a Magnum PI convention​

Tbh I can't afford to do the 'lets annoy Ian' loadout atm. Maybe once I finish the WW2 one...

 
Yeah, if you want to do it justice you'll need a P90, a MICH 2000, and a tan 6094...

Oh yeah, and a tan glock in a horizontal chest mounted serpa.

I see what you mean, its a little more red IRL but also you have to remember, especially with African stuff, is that the colours can vary a lot depending on year and manufacturer.

Also camopedia doesn't say reddish brown and from pics of it in use it doesn't look that reddish. But like I said it varies a lot depending on where and when it was made

Haha, I was partially considering some Bengadi OpFor but for the price its not worth it. Its about £35 + P&P for trousers. My Rhodies trousers were £42.25 all in!

It would be alright for a generic terrorist/merc loadout but trying to say its good because its like Rhodesian camo is a bit of a stretch

 
This is my newest loadout, it's a PROPER A-tacs shirt, flyye chest right, deluxe Fast helmet, Jack pyke glasses and some green cargo trousers from the local surplus the AEG is a jls F2000, hopefully I can replacement the AEG soon :P Sorry if the pictures are showing the wrong way up, doing this from a phone.

Yeah, those stens are still going for a oner. It's sooooooo tempting. But I'm in negotiations with a Russian bloke to get a complete all season afganka that will actually fit me properly and that's probably going to rush me one and a half... but it is the outer jacket and trousers which are for summer on there own and the quilted liners, with fur collar, plus the lot tailored, so if the deal comes together I won't feel spanked so much as wallet-shy for a while.

Shame because I could proper go for a loadout like yours, Russ, or an RM Commando one. Actually a Maquis loadout would be a lot of fun too.

 
Only been for sale in UK for like 3 days. Think we have the first ones sent out. Been waiting for these for quite a while.
