us loadout

[onion]

Hi guys

wanted to pick your airsoft brains on were to get a us style plate carrier

im going for a us ranger loadout , getting the m16 next week so need to get the other stuff ready

your help would be appreciated

 

[The Leprechaun!]

Guessing you want a fully modern loadout?

For starters you'l want multicam, and interceptor body armour (which you can get off flectarn.co.uk for about 50 i think, mates got one and its pretty decent) and a MICH 2000 helmet

im not after a super modern tactical look

just a fairly simple

us bdu

plate carrier

belt with pouches

black hawk drop leg holster

looking more like pasgt helmet ? like the us standard crrect me if im wrong

with a 1911 and a m16 a3

what you think

im fed up of my british dpm loadout

 

[The Leprechaun!]

Haha fair enough, so tri-cams (1990s), ACU (2000) or multicam? (present)?

And they use a mixture of PASGT and MICH helmets, think MICH ones are more 'spec ops', and in terms of plate carrier as long as you dont get something like an Osprey then you cant go wrong, but i think interceptor ones are the best (if youve seen it dont worry tue crotch, shoulder and neck guards are all removable )

Saying that, thats just the standard US Army, then youve got the Marines, spec ops etc...!

Have you considered US woodland or 'choc-chip' dessie camos? For 1996 - 2005 look.

Both look pretty nice, and aren't seen that much on the skirmish field.

If not, I second getting dessie- Tri Cams for the trousers - very nice to wear. And unlike UK woodland DPM dessi cams, they actually blend in pretty well with woodland (better than I-C-U camo and multi-sham too)

 

[The Leprechaun!]

UK woodland DPM dessi cams

Erm...? Lol wut?

And also think about ALICE webbing, similar to British PLCE, thats what they used unlike MOLLE came into existance

Hmm...I appear to be missing a sentence there....

Also Joe, don't you mean "before" not "unlike"?

 

[onion]

[Hubert]

...then go mad with the debit card

Hahaha, a classic airsofter at heart then? :lol:

Is there a specific US forces loadout from a film or game that you're trying to copy?

 

[The Leprechaun!]

Yeah meant before...

Haha the perfect airsofter who has no worries about spending lots and lots on new shiny airsofting things! :lol:

You should totally go for the 75th Ranger Bat. off Black Hawk Down!

 

[onion]

thats the look in after , us rangers .. black hawk down

 

[The Leprechaun!]

Sweet! Good lad!

Right so youl definitely want tri-cam jacket and trousers, a PASGT helmet (ive got a viper one if your interested) with choc chip cover, some form of NON molle plate carrier in US woodland, ALICE webbing in US woodland, black knee pads, some form of OD holster on an OD belt (if youve got a pistol, ie an M9 to be accurate), and if ya really want to get realistic desert boots and fast roping gloves

If theres owt you dont understand just ask

 

[onion]

how much do you want for the helmet mate , and could you send me some pictures ??

yeah cant wait to get paid im going to buy it all at once

 

[The Leprechaun!]

Its in good condition so about £15?

And sorry, using my iPhone atm since my computers broke atm, and i dont think imageshack likes iPhones (unless you know of another way?) But basically its just this:
