[QUOTE=felix the cat;33946827]If you want, I have an extra 7 pocket rig (the one that fits STANAGS and AK mags) from the grab bag. I'll send it to you for the cost of shipping. I have so many of these fucking things.[/QUOTE] Wow, thanks! I accept your offer.
[QUOTE=cardfan212;33951933]Wow, thanks! I accept your offer.[/QUOTE] Cool. Just PM me your address so I can figure out shipping.
[QUOTE=felix the cat;33952213]Cool. Just PM me your address so I can figure out shipping.[/QUOTE] Sent. So far, I've got that chest rig, [url=http://www.soviet-propaganda.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_23&products_id=105&zenid=44696751dbbee60d7d6149946d7cde36]flora[/url], and [url=http://www.soviet-propaganda.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=14_76&products_id=197]ushanka[/url]. Where can I go about finding a cheap SSH68 helmet? All the ones I've seen on Ebay are like $40 with $50 shipping out of Ukraine.
Not exactly Rossia but Ukrainian troops in Afghanistan are using the G36 now.

Apparently the G36s they're using in Afghanistan are only on loan from Lithuania, but there's no reason why they may not adopt it in the future. Or alternatively I could use an AKM or Tavor.
I think their police force and special forces exclusively use the tavors though unless you're going for that type of loadoit
Just released last night. Ebairsoft has replica/dummy Soviet grenades like the RGD-5 and F-1 [img]http://www.brotherprice.com/ebphoto/TMC%20Russian%20RGD-5%20fragmentation%20grenade%20Dummy%20a.jpg[/img] [url]http://www.ebairsoft.com/russian-rgd5-fragmentation-grenade-dummy-p-5365.html[/url] [img]http://www.brotherprice.com/ebphoto/TMC%20The%20Soviet%20F1%20hand%20grenade%20Dummy%20a.jpg[/img] [url]http://www.ebairsoft.com/soviet-hand-grenade-dummy-p-5364.html[/url]
Man I want the rgd-5, but it's pretty hard to justify spending $22 on a chunk of plastic. or according to them "50 % Cotton 50 % Nylon Ripstop made Plastic made "
I'd probably buy a couple if I had a rig with grenade pouches on it and wanted something to fill them up just to look more authentic. But other than that I probably wouldn't buy them.
It's a novelty to fill pouches. If I had a -complete- Russian loadout where I was at the point that I was all "Well, I got my uniform, rifle, helmet and vest.. now what?" I'd probably order a couple right that second. Same reason people spend $20 on a fake GPS unit. It's cheaper than $300 for a real one. I'm pretty sure dismantled grenades like the RGD-5 are expensive if you can even find them.
If I had money to blow and my russian loadout done I'd do it. I really wish someone would make actual airsoft grenades that look like that.
I have like 8 empty grenade pouches on my rig but I don't think I could ever justify $160 on inert nades to fill them
[QUOTE=the_killer24;34116452]I have like 8 empty grenade pouches on my rig but I don't think I could ever justify $160 on inert nades to fill them[/QUOTE] I would. But I'd also pay $700 to make progress on my Japanese loadout too.
What generally are the rules on dummy grenades? Like if you roll one into a room full of enemies, what happens?
[QUOTE=cardfan212;34116792]What generally are the rules on dummy grenades? Like if you roll one into a room full of enemies, what happens?[/QUOTE] They are mostly just for show, but in CQB, you can trick people into thinking it is real and having them move out of cover. Other times they find out it is a dummy grenade and just step all over it.
If someone purposely stepped on my dummy grenade I'd slap their shit.
dummy nades in my field have the "the moment it touches the ground, anyone within 5 feet are out" and referees usually keep watch. Also we have the, "if it goes inside a room, everyone is out" god fuck, one time, everyone in the enemy team had at least 1 dummy nade and they fucked shit up. Basically I was behind cover and the nexy thing I know, I see dummy nades of various shapes and sizes fall in my general direction they got half our team like that

[QUOTE=Taepodong-2;34117451]What happens if you hit the grenade back at them with your gun like a baseball bat?[/QUOTE] you would risk breaking your gun and the grenade while getting called out unless the nade was a tennis ball covered in duct tape (which I've seen before)
[QUOTE=Kill001;34117543]you would risk breaking your gun and the grenade while getting called out unless the nade was a tennis ball covered in duct tape (which I've seen before)[/QUOTE] That's why you do it 9th Company style with a GPMG.

Purchased 4 RGD-5s
Where the hell can I get an Afghanka uniform from.
no1 knows..
Is it an unholy sin to use MOLLE with a Russian loadout, considering MOLLE is American?
[QUOTE=_WEEGEE_;34121365]Is it an unholy sin to use MOLLE with a Russian loadout, considering MOLLE is American?[/QUOTE] Russia uses mollee
Technically parts of the russian military have started to use molle, but it's their own kind, as far as I remember.
[QUOTE=Year_of_Lurking;34121392]Technically parts of the russian military have started to use molle, but it's their own kind, as far as I remember.[/QUOTE] So, should I acquire a [url=http://www.redsoldier.com/SPLAV-Tactical-Vest-TARZAN-M33-Forest.html]SPLAV Tactical vest[/url] or a [url=http://www.airsoftgi.com/product_info.php?products_id=1104]custom MOLLE vest[/url] with $$$-killing pouches?
Definitely the splav, although personally, I dislike how it looks. The quality should be significantly higher than condor too.
[QUOTE=Year_of_Lurking;34121671]Definitely the splav, although personally, I dislike how it looks. The quality should be significantly higher than condor too.[/QUOTE] Alright. I agree, though, the camo looks a bit corny.
Personally, I think a chest rig of some sort would probably look better with whatever you're going for.
