Load-Out / Loadout Picture topic

Might want to get some shoes ;)

Otherwise it looks pretty good. I don't think the face mask really takes that much away from it. Certainly a better first loadout than what I started with.

 
Yeah, I like it too, Cpn. DA. I think the vest looks a bit big on you though - is it already adjusted as tight as it gets?

Also, strictly for posing, you might try wearing what these days is called a "headover" by some companies, ie a tube of T-shirt material, in black, around your neck - it'll get too hot during skirmishes but the complete covering will look the dog's bollocks - they are pretty good instead of a scarf you might wear ordinarily too mind you.

I'd go with boots as high as you can get with those kecks tucked into them. I always recommend German Para Boots, because they are indestructible, but they're not gentle on feet that are used to trainers. You might want to check Ronnie Sunshine's on fleabay because they're having a clearance sale on Magnum Panther 8.0's.

 
Looks a bit too clean and new :D but apart from that, nice loadout!!

Magnum boots would go nicely with that!

 
Crap I knew I'd forgotten something Ed... ;)

I still have to adjust a few more straps Ian but it doesn't help that I'm 6 foot 2 and really skinny, hopefully it will be fine once I finish adjusting everything! If not ill have to take a few trips to Burger King and fatten up! Hahaha. I'm still waiting for my holster and dumb pouch to arrive, then it should be complete for the time being.

I like the idea about the head over thing aswell, I might order a buff online, I saw someone with one last time I went to a skirmish and it looks perfect for what I need it for.

I've been searching the web for hours and I defiantly like the magnum boots, the only problem is none are in stock anywhere for my size feet :(

Cheers for the feedback lads!

 
Looks neat and concise, invested in top quality eye pro, can't go wrong really.

The majority of tac gear has (historically at least) been designed for pretty huge blokes, I had the same issue for a long time when I started out. I'd advise avoiding any sort of a vest (i.e. something that doesn't hold plates and isn't a chest rig) because the original designs of those tend to stem from gear that's meant to be worn over the top of armour. Chest rigs are better for tightening down, flecktarn.co.uk sell a couple of very high quality options by BULLE which are also very affordable.

Possibly not in black, but tan and black looks pretty ballin'

I got home about 20 minutes ago, scanned through my vest and discovered 3 straps on the inside I hadn't found before. Tightened them up and it fits my perfectly now! Thanks anyway mate!

 
Good stuff. Bit of advice for future purchases anyway.

You'll have a great big locker full of stuff before you know it, don't worry.

 
Yeah far better than my first load out!

I have spent LOTS of kit in the last year trying to get it right and hoe i want it. only took me 13 months!

My first load out: Very much thrown together.

Now use Desert Lowas and Tru-spec tri colour combats.

 
Your in the same boot as me then I'm struggling to find a Size 10 set of Magnum's anywhere that's not outrageous price's!

 
Ronnie Sunshine's have 2 pairs of size 10 Magnum Panther 8.0's left - coincidence or spooky? You decide... [cue X Files Theme]

50 notes - best price I've seen for ordinary sizes brand new

I was thinking of getting some myself but my spare money is done for the time being.

Ooh I don't have any spare paper's at the Mo either :-(

 
Looking good, ZDM. Shame about the 2-tone. Have you considered making a flecktarn bag that fits exactly over your rifle's furniture and velcros tight?

 
Camo tape it. Is non permanent so does not violate VCRA. (as long as you remove it after the game)

 
He's lucky to even have a sniper!! We have to be over 18 where I play :(

Thanks for the link by the way Ian! I think I'll pick up a pair of those panthers you were talking about! Haven't found a pair so cheap anywhere!

 
More than enough space to carry all the crap I need :P

And added my patch from the Airsoft show :)

Sorry for long reply, I was thinking about buying some Flecktarn camo tape. The amount of people who said they noticed me because of that gun :(
