The Kit Pic Thread

Right then.
Here's me just before a game on Sunday in the denim battledress and webbing. Before anyone says I know the webbing pouches are skewed, it's something to do with the stitching, the left pouch is sewn higher up on the webbing than the right one (it's extra's webbing from The Monuments Men, so not amazing quality).

Prepare to be amazed that Epic (if thats where you've ordered it from) have very kindly sent you a MkI pouch (the one on your right, which sits lower on the belt) - these are rather more rare than the MkII or MkIII pouches and can fetch good money for a genuine original one

Oh right - thanks - the right pouch is also the better of the two pouches at the moment (it actually stays closed). Good guess on where I bought it from - absolutely right - Epic Militaria.

Broke my number 2 rule of WW2 airsoft and went airborne. 502nd Able Co.

Hi folks!
Probably one of the better shots of me - playing at The Hill in Dundee with Team Shoot and Scoot. The MkV sten is one of Warren's...all kit is original bar the smock (The real ones stays indoors )-- attachment is not available --

Aaaand another! The Bren is a shoot and scoot ZB26 airsoft conversion. Mags done by Myself..-- attachment is not available --

Looking very nice. Is that a new barrel?

I believe the barrel has been turned down to fit the flash hider/sights on the end. Still missing it's gas plug and a few small bits but is a nice piece of work!

It certainly looks the part. How did you get the magazines to work? Is it used as a cover with the zb magazine inside?

First go with the new Soviet uniform. Having to wear my BD trousers but I'm pretending they're wool m43 breeches. Went with the puttees in the end as the jack boots didn't quite fit over the wool.-- attachment is not available --

Looks very good I'll 'try' and shoot you on Saturday now I know what I'm aiming for

I'm a pretty slow target so I'm sure you'll get me

And can't forget Andres..............

Well I almost have my SE Asia kit sorted thanks to Granger for asking the question on the large pack. Got push stud pouches and green blanco on order, though the natural tone works quite well in British 'jungle'. Kit is for Queens Royal Surrey Regiment, May 1945.

Steve.... WOW. Quite superb.

I am now preparing the WW2 room to receive a new uniform. I will be shamelessly copying this impression as it is Superb. Bravo.

Steve that is very impressive! You've inspired me to finish off my jungle green kit.

This one was photoshopped by Bob's fighting Forties facebook page https://www.facebook.com/BobsFighting40s
There was a similar photo without the photoshopping in Guns Mart which was very complimentary of Dadio's work on the Owen gun.
Now we just need a game where we can wear the JG's

My full kit - wool uniform, normally wear a denim uniform in the summer months, tends to be easier to wash. https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/v/t34.0-12/12277044_1531196750536579_1854466547_n.jpg?oh=2325c6e40efc6ffa4c86485ea8c209e2&oe=5658CED1

The cold weather made for some great pictures of gas venting from the PPS k98!
