AirsoftZero000 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Does anyone know what the SCO19/SO19/AFO (that kinda thing) wear. I'm trying to recreate a realistic uniform of the stuff they use. If anyone knows anything please tell me. Links would be helpful. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted October 7, 2018 Head Moderator Share Posted October 7, 2018 Try the search tool, it has a 3 character minimum, and read through any results. You may need to try lots of terms, this is a very specialist field and not that much information here. For example "CTSFO" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've looked at a few of these but they don't really say what they wear, just where do I get boots, where do I get helmets etc. But thanks I'll have a look through some more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshOnSnow Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 I’m fairly sure they’ll be standard stuff underneath, not super expensive - helikon or pentagon perhaps. Military1st has stuff you need. fairly certain I see warrior DCS on CTSFO photos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bear in mind they’re limited on budget and they’re not kitting out for rough terrain, they’ve designed their load outs with scenarios like Paris gun attacks in mind - our cheapo viper airsoft clothes probably get more working out on a Sunday game day. They’ll have saved the big bits of their equipment budget for things like weapon optics, FLIR drones etc. I very much doubt they’d want spend £250 on a pair of trousers lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dentonboy Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 CTSFO: Grey C2R Fast vest and pouches. Grey Arc'teryx shirt and pants. Grey snood. Sig MCX carbine Glock 19? For 'regular' armed police, I have seen in Sussex that they usually wear Police badged black kit with G36s, MP7s, 417s or GLs. Assuming Glock 19s or 17s.

Thanks It really depends on which force you are trying to emulate, since each force area apart from the Met buy their uniform from a national account, they all look similar apart from the met ofcourse.

KendoKhan Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Black or Navy wicking shirt made by Double Two or Hunter Black cargo trousers with or without bloused bottoms, made by DoubleTwo Plate Carrier made by Aegis Engineering LBV made by Arktis or Aegis (depends on the force). MET CTSFO's wear BlackHawk Stike Plate carriers in Grey: Remploy Swift Responder CBRN overalls - Grey Remploy CRBN responder overalls in Black or Navy. Helmet: GS MK7 or PASGT Helmet. Belt: Standard duty belt Holsters: This depends on the officer's preference, some use drop leg some have them mounted to their vest. Boots: Personal preference, for public order police use Altberg Peacekeeper P3's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal ATO wear the same trousers issued to response bobbies, some wear or are issued the bloused dog handler trousers. CTSFO's are issued with Arc’teryx trousers and shirts in Wolf Grey.

Dentonboy Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Yeah, that is C2R and Arc'teryx in Wolf Grey. Pricey. Edgar Brothers and eBay the best places to look. Patches and badges readily available online. Emerson Fast helmets and Z-Tac headsets can be bought cheaply too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's disgraceful, I never expected that. Spending money on good quality is one thing, but that is ridiculous. I notice they were keen to omit THIS from their pretty little "how much we spent on equipment" document. Meanwhile police response times in some places are >20 minutes on priority, a big chunk of police officers are now unpaid and not allowed even to claim expenses to travel into base for shifts, the terror threat is at an all time high and officers in cities aren't even issued with the most basic bullet resistant safety gear. Boils my piss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supporters Druid799 Posted October 7, 2018 Supporters Share Posted October 7, 2018 Have to say though is there really any point to spending a hideous amount on getting Arc’teryx kit though mate ? 90% of players wouldn’t know it from TMC or viper ! Just get your self some wolf grey (or just grey) kit . and crack on .👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you know what you are wearing (and that is not Viper ). Edgarbrothers do have some Arc'teryx LEAF kit at reduced prices: https://online.edgarbrothers.com/collections/arcteryx/products/arcteryx-leaf-mens-talos-pants-wolf-sale 18 hours ago, KendoKhan said: MET CTSFO's wear BlackHawk Stike Plate carriers in Grey: This of course is a 5.11 TacTec plate carrier in Storm grey I purchased mine from Nightgear (they do 10-20% discount promotions) https://www.nightgearstore.com/en-UK/511-Tactical-TacTec-Plate-Carrier-Vest/482593948ng.htm?colour=Storm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
