Russe11 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Looks like I'm on Has-Mad. All my gear at present is dpm. I may have to do some shopping. Hmm, if Van can comment on the begadi opfor's suitability for HAS-MAD, I see an opportunity to troll Ian
van650 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Yeah too green, I can look at ball grenades for bulk orders but usually they are too expensive
van650 Posted December 5, 2013 Posted December 5, 2013 Russ, for HAS MAD, think civvy rebel look, don't forget your black and white shemaghs though!
Supporters jcheeseright Posted December 5, 2013 Supporters Posted December 5, 2013 roger dodger, I'm happy to pay for them, just cannot get on with the Mk5 and the event rules say only site bought pyro to be used!

Supporters NickM Posted December 5, 2013 Supporters Posted December 5, 2013 I'd love to but don't want to be a pain for the organisers, have offered and said that if someone does ask to go onto SFSG then they can swatch me. My teammates had said they were really keen but wanted to be SFSG so I booked and they didn't! Ah well I'll just have a blast and make them feel very jealous when I get back.
Russe11 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Come over to the dark side! Technically if we're wearing desert camo and they have woodland stuff, aren't we the light side?

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 6, 2013 Author Supporters Posted December 6, 2013 I could be head to toe in kit made from white christening gowns and wedding dresses, with a helmet mounted 5KW flood running off a chainsaw engine genny in a back pack and I'd still be the dark side Oops, forgot to add: +1 on ball grenades - I'm happy to pay what they cost too.

Russe11 Posted December 6, 2013 Posted December 6, 2013 Could we wear Fez's, Fez's are cool Hmm where to get a DDPM Fez from.....
Supporters NickM Posted December 8, 2013 Supporters Posted December 8, 2013 Could we wear Fez's, Fez's are cool Hmm where to get a DDPM Fez from..... Buy a cheap Fex and a cheap DDPM shirt then cover it!
Russe11 Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Buy a cheap Fex and a cheap DDPM shirt then cover it! Well originally it was a joke, but now I'm thinking I may actually do it. Possibly with some molle and velcro just for sheer silliness If we all had a go at a tacticool Fez, it might be a good way to identify each other when we get there?
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 9, 2013 Author Supporters Posted December 9, 2013 Well originally it was a joke, but now I'm thinking I may actually do it. Possibly with some molle and velcro just for sheer silliness If we all had a go at a tacticool Fez, it might be a good way to identify each other when we get there? I'm going to have a think about this over the time we have until May. The ball ache is that a fez is conical and a band of webbing isn't, so the easiest way to do it, stitch the webbing to the sides laid out as a flat piece then curl it around to form a cone will not produce horizontal molle. My sewing machine has a bit which comes off to allow stitching around sleeves etc, but I'd need to stitch @90deg to the way it was designed to be used, which is doable but such a PITA... I have a vague idea, but I just CBA to think it through right now. One thing for certain though: I'm not going to do it for free - cost yeah, but upfront! But, oh yeah, edit: I love the idea
Russe11 Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 Well I will probably be hand stitching mine, I don't have access to a sewing machine without my Mum thinking I'm nuts. People seem to like this idea though. I will try and detail my construction in the DIY thread so people can follow it. Anyone who can't sew, maybe a fez can be spray painted? I don't think Molle is compulsory, its just a bit of silliness. One problem, ideally I would like an AF-UK patch for the front. Are these out of stock, because theres no button to buy them?
Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 10, 2013 Author Supporters Posted December 10, 2013 Mothers are supposed to think we're mad, otherwise how would we know that we had changed sufficiently from the previous generation to warrant having drawn breath in the first place? There's no such thing as stability in nature: if we're not living, changing, and growing as a species, we're stagnating, dying and going extinct. Patches
Deej Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Christ Ian, that's a bit Gandhi for 0600! So I got onto HAS-MAD, in the same boat as everyone else now: looking for decent non-dpm to wear. Love the fez idea, where do I sign?

Supporters Ian_Gere Posted December 11, 2013 Author Supporters Posted December 11, 2013 Shame they're not doing ball grenades but I'll want £30's worth at those prices I expect - 8 bangs / 4 smokes. 2-3 more of us with a similar idea and that's enough for a bulk order. Hopefully they'll let us buy 50 units mixed bang and smoke for £105... Ian?
