Christian I have to call you on that the 50/50 NyCO rip and twill are hard to find. I found a great site while you were gone. Check it out. www.bdu.com


Roger that.

ISSUE-style are hard to find.  The crotch flap in the trousers is an indicator.

They can be had, but this is the first site I have seen that sells them commercially.  I said it was hard, not impossible. ;)

ive always wondered if there were others in the airsoft community that put lots of time and effort into authentic uniforms, i personally own a fully authentic vietnam combat uniform and im working on a desert storm uniform. what do you have and what are you working on in the uniform dept? describe it, or put up some pics, lets see them.

Got any pics of your Nam uni? I've been doing a film project on the subject, so I've accumulated quite of bit of the stuff over the past 3 years. I'm surprised by the amount of people interested in the subject. Have you ever checked out www.mooremilitaria.com? Trey's a great guy and his reenactments rock.


i believe you actually saw it at the game on january 6th at avra valley (i seem to remember you being there).  he has since gone fully canvas.  its pretty amazing.  (btw, i'd let sean respond, but who knows when he'll get back on the internet).


Oh, same guy, huh? OK nevermind, I've seen the gear, looks pretty good overall - personally I'm happy you got rid of the nylon.

Right now I have 3 color desert 50/50 NyCo top and pant and woodland 50/50 NyCo top and pant. I also have some old OD 100% cotton top and bottom. I'm growing out of my desert stuff so I'm getting some digital pattern BDU's. I have a black TAC Force vest which I’ll "dust" with coyote brown spray paint. I had a pair of magnums but grew out of them. Need to get me some good boots....

The MCCUs are issue, so I think these are Alpha Industries or Propper...I'd have to check.


The MCCUUs that I had were American Apparel and Propper.  I think I've seen some Atlanco MCCUUs before, too.

Geezus, Boy!  I'm tired for you!  
you need to learn how to punctuate and make separate sentences out of this stuff so we can read it a little easier I mean if you are going to say so much you need to break it up into separate sentences instead of running it all together into one long one and try not to abbreviate so much there is no hurry what you have to say isnt that important and dont be a post whore because forum rank doesnt mean sh*t if you said nothing to get it :roll:

Let thou who has not sinned cast the first stone.

Strange, you didnt use any punctuation, and it looks like one big run on.
P.S. you forgot to capitalize.

***RANT WARNING***RANT WARNING***RANT WARNING***

If you'd taken the time to check azsarge's previous posts, numbn*ts, you'd have noticed that he's at least as anal about punctuation, grammar, spelling, and capitalization as I am.  In other words, he writes GOOD ENGLISH!  Something which you, Surplus man, have yet to do even once.  What azsarge was doing was being subtle, alluding to your style of writing in the very post in which he reprimanded you for it.  Subtle, however, seems to be merely yet another five-letter word to you.  Hence the preceeding.

I like cheese...

I have the 3-color DCU and a "SPEAR II" (or so I was told by the seller) knock-off vest in "coyote brown".

Working on two sets of woodland BDUs.
