Who's gonna be wearing bergens? I'm planning on wearing mine but was wondering if anyone else would be too.

It'd also be an excuse to make a carcano of course!

I'd be up to do Italian, I'd like to do Western Desert gear but I like the grigio verde too, a lot of it saw use in the western desert anyway.

Cheers mate, much appreciated. Really looking forward to it, I've been wanting to get to an event for ages now, it's really been too long since the l...

Could I possibly provisionally hold a place as a Commando and send payment once I have a lift sorted? If I can't come I'll let you know as soon as so ...

Just trying to sort a lift then I'll be booking on as Commando.

I might have to order a few bits from hikishop, also fingers crossed that they do a No1 Mk3 Lee Enfield.
