History Bunker shop

Hey!

Has anyone used the shop - history bunker -?

Debating whether to use them to get a uniform package as its fairly cheaper then elsewhere.

I got my Soviet M43 tunic from these guys and its superb. However, the couple pieces of (Soviet) field gear I got off of them were utter crap, frankly, replaced them ASAP. Customer service wise I'd give them top marks though, prompt, courteous responses to every email I sent them

I think I read somewhere they they make alot of the clothing but order in accessories. I Will have to look into some italian units now .

Avanti Savoia!

Avanti Savoia!

Battlefield 1 may have had something to do with it .

If i could find some French WW2 uniform, that'd be better or maybe the ol' horizon blue will do!

France is pretty cool, I always thought the MAS-36 was a pretty gun

Excellent! Another Italian. I shall look forward to seeing the comparison between Hiki and the history bunker. I was worried when I first saw your post as I looked at these guys when I first looked into Italian and their kit was grey! Completely the wrong colour, however now the stuff looks great and very similar to the hiki stuff.

Make sure you get the bustiana rater than there beret though, and it's up to you between 37 and 40 pattern, I have 37 as I like the black collars and It was used from the beginning of the war, though 40 patterb wasn't far behind.

I can dream of the day of fielding an Italian unit
Have your managed to source field equipment?
What are you doing with regards to a weapon?

Haha, fielding a unit would be good!
Its just a bit of scheming at the moment. Looking at various waring nations to find out one that grabs my attention.

As far as equipment goes, none, and weapon, mostly likely would use something captured.

Will keep you updated though

From what I've seen those on Italian reenactment forums say, the history bunker's Italian kit is to be avoided like the plague. Only seen good things about Hikishop though.

Good kit guides on this site.

Pegasus do the Folgore kit (most of it) as well... I can't remember who pointed me in the direction for that.

Not exactly cheap and I'll admit the future of Folgore use in WW2 Airsoft isn't exactly teeming.

So cool though and it's Pegasus... it's quality.

T'was me! But yeah you're right, not much call for Folgore. They did fight in tropical kit at El Alemein and elsewhere in North Africa though, so if there's another NA game there's plenty of scope for Italian infantry and Folgore. More so infantry though.

If anyone is interested in Italian gear I've got some that I'm planning to sell, i.e. uniform, belt/Ammo pouches, helmet etc.
