Got the CCU, or rather the revised version of it. However, from what I read, the difference is basically insignificant between the 2 Vera of the CCU. I kept my promise, camo anon.
>>62072103Here’s the tid bit from the 2nd version of the CCU trousers>same design as the ACU(basically the final draft for the ACU)>the hooks on the cargo pockets are black>of course, it’s 50/50 NYCO>made by American power source>have the same knee slot pockets>Velcro pockets all around>the main difference between it and the ACU is that it’s waist string is different in terms of material
>>62072149Also, I think the main difference between the second and first version of the CCU is the Velcros. The velcros for the second version is the same as the ACUs. The first version is similar to how crye do their Velcros, which is just two small blocks of it on both sides. At least for the valve pocket and the shoulder pocket for the CCU coat.
>>62072103>>62072149>>62072175https://soldiersystems.net/2022/06/30/identifying-close-combat-uniform-and-combat-uniform-prototypes/This dude also did an analysis between the 2 versions. So worth checking out if you want a more in-depth explanation for the coat at least. I can provide more pics of the trousers on here when I can.
>>62069148>Northern AustraliaRed Coats, let them fight on thier own for once. Maybe they'll do better against nonemus
>>62069148Multicam
>>62067376in america, where are the cheapest places to get good webbing in camo patterns?
>>62073532>good webbingOn spools or sewn gear?
>>62073671on spools but i really need about 10 yards for various slings and the sellers on ebay are in china or predatory pricing faggots.
>>62067384what's the standings in the poll?
>>62067384Wtf I can't vote twice? This is America!
>>62069148>>62073965
Closest to milsurp thread, is gomilitar.com legit, or fake and gay?As for camo, in my heart I love jigsaw, but M90 is more normie friendly.
found some sexy blumentarn jackets if anyone's Interested?https://universal-surplus.com/products/german-sniper-camo-jacket?_pos=1&_sid=d74c24922&_ss=r&variant=44650579329311
>>62073824so far tigerstripe, itll either be 5th 6th or 7th pattern
>>62067384Have anything really green that would blend well with summer plants and stuff? Just curious.
>>62077018you looking for an older type pattern or newer modern design? a few i had up in the poll are pretty green and effective. one of the patterns is a tropic version a ww2 german oakleaf pattern
>>62077158Honestly I'm just looking for something that might be effective in PA for hunting. Everything is green. Green grass, green trees. bright green bushes. Green on green on green. And no camo that works lol. I also think you might be able to sell some clothes just making them thin and breatheable enough for summer use while making them in such a way that it keeps ticks out. Feels like I often have to choose between the two.
>>62077212> I also think you might be able to sell some clothes just making them thin and breatheable enough for summer use while making them in such a way that it keeps ticks out. Feels like I often have to choose between the two.thats the plan, im originally from a very tropical place and i learn toward cold war/Nam aesthetics and is why im going with 100% cotton ripstop with some jungle fatigues roomy fit. BDUs will be twill and are fine for flannel type warmth
>>62077018>>62077212NTAI would recommend M90, AOR2, or CADPAT

This makes me feel good
I'd just go with a desert or olive M65, who cares
>>62069148I think the Australian Multicam gets the job done
>>62077415Would.
>>62069148>the next war will be in the PacificI heard it’s starting in 2 more weeks.
Most camo patterns look ugly to me. Woodland and some of the Flecktarn stuff looks good to me, but most of my gear is in ranger green. I live in the northeast, and it works fine most of the year, especially if I haven't wiped off any grime (mud, leaves, etc) in a while.I'm not super concerned about hiding in the woods though. If I was, I'd get a ghillie hood and pack cover. Beez Combat Systems sells some pretty cool options, especially their thermal mitigation stuff. Reducing your thermal signature is becoming a serious concern these days.
>>62079717>Beez Combat SystemsExpensive.
>>62072103>>62072149>>62072175>>62072299I FORGOT, the CCU literally has no back pockets lol.
>RED ALERT RED ALERTCamo condoms now, so nobody sees you cumming...Had to.
emergency bump
>>62067384Absolutely nobody makes normal BDUs in this.
>>62075350go militar is legit yes
>>62084311Thanks anon.
>>62084270you could find some helikon tex shit but its discountinued, UF pro also made them but not bdus, it's combat clothesmaybe Roman kurmaz would but he makes combat too, idk if he does bdus
>>62067384>tfw there's a chance we could have Duckhunter BDU's in the near futureMy dick is about to rip through my jeans.
>>62084720Discontinued, discontinued. Everything made in this pattern is trying to be ultra modern and ends up falling flat when compared to old school stuff. Even the material, it's almost always polyester (plastic) or a blend.
Are we honestly convinced that typical combat gear and uniforms benefit from a camouflage print? I feel like the vast majority of the time, someone's silhouette and movement are going to give someone away before the print on their uniform. This is made even worse with technology like thermal and night vision. Modern combat gear isn't even well-suited for blending into a soldier's surroundings to begin with, the shapes and silhouettes are all very recognizable, older-style loose fitting sniper suits and newer 3D laser-cut leaf suits are very uncommon in modern militaries, and most of them wear a bunch of blocky, high-profile battle rattle on top. I feel like there are few combat scenarios where a camo uniform provides an edge over a solid-color one. Camo uniforms may be mostly just a morale item to boost team spirit. It's just psyoping your own troops to make them think they're 'invisible' to make them less risk-adverse.Look at the Ukraine V. Russia war. Russia adopts a green-dominant pattern that at any real distance will just be seen as OD green by the human eye. Ukraine counters this by adopting a tan-dominant uniform. The point of both of these decisions is friend/foe identification, since both parties using camo ideal for the local would result in tons of friendly fire. Is it even worth the additional cost of a patterned uniform? Is the risk of friendly fire worth it? For the average unit, does it provide any benefit at all? Or is camo something that should be primarily issued and utilized by more elite units that are actually undergoing stealth-focused missions? Is giving lesser units camo just a morale boosting effect to make them feel like a unit more elite than they are?
>>62085460Are you going to cry?
>>62068021
>>62069148Singapore's camo works very well in that domain
its a god damned 4 way tie
>>62067376>>62069518>>62069565Bing chillin with ur Granny too.
>>62087497It’s like a greener MARPAT which I like more green.
>>62067447>>62067528I too fap but it’s to any digital camouflage.
Brought my CADPAT Jacket and LATPAT pants on this camping trip with my family up in the 1,000 islands.>CADPAT TW works amazingly well since I’m soo close to Canada.
>>62077158Make a gofundme already jfc, you could collab with gear brands and stack paper selling them custom fabric and I'd buy. Hire some ukranian babushka granny to sew gear.
>>62087497Would hunt coyotes in spring while wearing/10
>>62085460Tldr shut up moron
>>62067447You have no idea anon. How good is sportsman's guide? They have belgian jigsaw on sale right now for black friday (lol) but I heard from another anon that their warehouse stinks so, in result, all their surplus stink. It's a still a damn shame belgian didn't sell all their surplus when they adopted multicam.
looks like dot44 came outta nowhere folks
>>62092642for the dot44 im not sure if id do it in a BDU/TCU or start it off with a combat shirt like picrel example
