Making and AltHistory kit, need advice about NATO 90's/00's gear.

Hi all,

 

I'm looking for advice on a fun little impression I'm building.  It's supposed to be the uniform of an AltHistory version of a Scottish Army soldier if Scotland had gone independent at some point in the early 1900's.

 

I'm trying to imagine how Scottish military gear would have developed around the 1990's and early 2000's, like what camo and rigs might have been used, and what guns they might have used.

 

One thing I want to avoid is making it just "IRA but Scottish".  In my head, I'm thinking maybe using gear that followed Scandinavian  designs, but I'm not very knowledgebase about Scandinavian gear.

 

Honestly, I'm just spit-balling and wanted to get some ideas.
