I would enter, but I'm hitting about £800 on my relatively "basic" A-TACS FG loadout and I am hitting over £1000 and my "fully loaded" loadout. :D

I doubt my UKSF one will be much less when its finished same with my A-TACS AU one

 

However, my new PMC loadout (loosely based of the PMCs in Rambo (2008)) may just be under £400 (hopefully :/)

if it falls under £400 then its game

The woodland PMC is relatively cheap at only £600, I think I've found the issue is that my primary including mag is about £300 and my RAV without pouches is £65 :D

Where did you get a PLB for £25? Must be second hand I assume

 

 

Also the problem is how much people have spent and how much their stuff is worth. for instance my RAV was second have for £65 and new they're well over £100 from asia and normally sell for more than £100 second hand, I just got a good deal. Same with Juniors kit

Well my Osprey with pouches was £150.

Desert Lowa boots were £10 - grade 2.

PCS MTP kit was £40 for UBACS and combats.

Mk VII helmet with cover was £80.

Blackhawk knee pads were £20.

Dump pouch was £20.

Pistol mag pouches were £15.

Holster was £30ish, so considering it's mostly proper military grade stuff I think I got some mega bargins in there.

 

£365 for the stuff I wear. Though I've probably missed something really obvious...

 

But then there's my pistol which was £160 with 3 mags, though I don't tend to carry it these days.

 

My radio with headset and PTT which was about £55.

 

My rifle, which including batteries, chargers and especially magazines is easily pushing the £1500 mark at the moment, probably closer to £1650 after my most recent purchases and even with nothing added to it would've still been over £300.

 

That's all without even considering the additional costs of having it all posted to me.

 

I think I'd be physically incapable of putting a load-out together that I'd actually personally use for under £400.

 

It's a surprisingly difficult challenge.

 

The cheapest load-out I've ever had was when I got my first AEG, MP5 was £220, 8 mags were £50, basic hiking trousers and long sleeve top came to about £50, boots were £60 and my Viper rig was £35, so that's a load-out for £380. Jesus even that barely qualifies! My boots were reduced from £110 as well!

 

I didn't even count my eye pro or knee pads!

 

I swear this is impossible... Especially if you want to include any proper mag carrying rigs, plate carriers etc etc.

you can not enter with out photos please post photos because its mainly about looks as well as functionality

and dont forget that at the end of summer there will be a vote for each category.
