[Sticky] The kit loan thread

as playing scout, i've the feeling i won't be needing my 2 man period tent! pete has a cosy fox hole picked out for me. i'll bring it along for anyone should it be needed! just post your request.

Does anyone have a spare Soviet scout oversuit they'd be willing to loan me for the event?
I would buy myself one but being unemployed and not likely to be earning again till just before the event I haven't the money spare at the moment!

Thanks!

Just to let you know that you don't actually need a scout suit - "normal" Soviet uniform is fine too.

First post updated, I have enough gear to kit someone out from head to foot!

I've a post war Russian/Czech helmet, plash rain cape thing, Russian water bottle, British puttees and an MP40 I can lend. Enough to make you pass as a Ruskie at the end of the supply chain.
Got a great coat too, but it might be the wrong time of year for that.

I have the following spare:

Soviet
Postwar M43 tunic size 42 chest
M69 uniform (tunic & trousers) 42 chest, 36 waist
Ssh40 helmet size 58/59
Passabe leather belt
4 x mosin nagant pouches
VSR based Mosin Nagant running sub 350fps plus mags (up to 7)

German
Complete Heer or SS uniform including gear in similar sizes to above. I'm not lising the lot but if you need anything just ask.
Tanaka G33/40 + 5 mags
VSR based K98 sub 350 fps plus mags (up to 7)
MP44 + 3 1/2 mags.

It's getting close folks! Anyone who needs kit, let everyone know!

Seanebabes, can the Mindham borrow the Plash so he can remain more hidden and dry whilst awaiting the chance to shoot you?

Yep, no worries... now where did I put the bright orange paint?

Chaps I'm trying to get myself a new period weapon for the game but in case I don't get anything in time I'd like to register my interest in loaning a German related weapon here.

I'm happy to use pretty much anything, however I only have K98/G43 pouches for my webbing. I have many batteries of my own that I can use with all connectors and battery types and I'm happy to bring a few bottles of gas along too should they be needed.

Thanks in advance.

Looks like Lardy could be your man for this! He has these available to loan (bend it, mend it basis!).

Tanaka G33/40 + 5 mags
VSR based K98 sub 350 fps plus mags (up to 7)

Yeah sure, take your pick!

Best to get this up early I thought! As per usual, if you have any spare kit, or kit required, post it up here! (CiA accept no liability for player to player deals struck on here!)

Anyhow, I have available, on a "bend it, mend it basis"...

Russian Telogreika, large size (44-46" chest).
Russian (post war, M69) tunic (44" chest).
Russian (post war) belt.
Russian leg wraps.
MP40 and magazines with 1 x 3 mag pouch. - Loaned to Combat Smurf.
Russian EM belt and breadbag/buttpack.
Russian messtins.
Russin veshmeshok backpack.

German "bergmutze" cap.
German "gamaschen" gaiters.
German dot44 tunic (large 44-48 chest).
German M43 "Keilhosen" trousers 34-36" waist.

Could I borrow the Russian leg wraps & breadbag please Pete.

Hi folks

I want to actually be able to walk at the end of this event so I'll be using my regular Corcoran boots for this.

I'm thinking of disguising them with leg wraps or puttees. Does anyone have something like this that I could borrow, or even have any better suggestions?

Cheers

Yep, it's yours!

Hi folks.

CiA have a pup tent up for grabs still, plus I'm personally able to offer a Tommy and an MP40 for anyone who wants it.

All on a bend it, mend it basis.

Please put me down for the pup tent Steve at the moment the only period tent I've got is 14ftx14ft so it'll be too big for this event
