When was he issued those? In basic? I know the National Guard still issues out their M81 BDU's and first generations M16's along with the old PASGT helmets, vests and the whole suspender system in Basic but they usually upgrade you when they deploy you.

Uhh, no they dont? They get issued all the same gear that the regular Army does, even before shipping people off to basic.
I help train recruits that haven't even shipped out to basic yet:

I'm going off what I knew from 2001 and 2002.

I should have mentioned that, back then when I said 'upgrade' they were still being issued DCU and getting Woodland Interceptors. This was long before they even had ACU's or very few did.
National Guard :buddy:
I'm joining hopefully in a few months, after my surgery.

[QUOTE=Jenkem;25788348]Oh, sorry. I assumed it was a PASGT...
I don't know why it'd have woodland camo on it, then, though.[/QUOTE]
The Canadian Army issued M1s with M81 covers from the mid 80's up until 98 when they replaced it with a Kevlar helmet with a CADPAT cover.

He had it as standard issue equipment when he was stationed in Lejeune.
I think I'm going to make a loadout based on the Sheriff from The Walking Dead. I'd want it to wear to PAX but it'd be REALLY badass to play Airsoft wearing it all and using a revolver. Just a thought, probably not going to do it. It'd be more appropriate if I actually knew anything about being an Officer of the Law.
God does anyone know where to get ACH bolts for chinstraps? For some reason the ones for my LWH don't fit (I took 'em out to do a little experimenting with my MICH) and now they won't fit. >:(
At least I'm picking up my swing arm I left at the last Op on the 21st... and also buying a woodland MARPAT cover... going to roll grunt as the feedback I've received from numerous friends/geardo's was that I can access more real deal stuff with a grunt loadout... so why not... ? :D
Content. This page needs more of it.
Yes, I will be showing my real face on this forum for the first time. Behold the glory of my barely-coherent loadout:
[img]http://img408.imageshack.us/img408/2419/003ifw.jpg[/img]
Since the last post here, I've managed to get a hold of a woodland boonie hat and some matching BDUs.
Equipment list:
1x Condor MOLLE vest of some sort (sorry, I'm a bit illiterate at some of these terms. CIRAS what?)
2x STANAG M4/M16 Mag pouches (can't remember if they're attached or separate)
2x Pistol mag pouches
3x Hi-cap STANAG magazines
2x WE Hi-Capa magazines (one CO2, one GG - hoping to get another GG mag or two)
1x Dump pouch
1x Admin pouch
1x Old, fake plastic knife from when I was a kid
1x Cheapo red dot sight (not pictured; it's on the M16 right now)
1x Propper M81 Woodland BDUs
1x Cool boonie hat
1x WileyX glasses (cool, but not shown)
1x Some old boots (not worn at the time)
1x Pair of kneepads
1x Pair of gloves
1x CA M15A4 Carbine (sportline, lawl)
1x WE P14 M1911 (CO2/GG)
I'll be flayed alive and sold in little air-tight fish packages before I remember who actually makes half of my stuff, though.
Considering I don't remember you, your face doesn't mean a lot to me. Maybe I'm just bad with names though.
Hes a new guy i think
I guess i'm not the only one here with the CA M15A4 Sportline, I guess maybe i'm the only one with a black spraypainted one that barely runs, but you all get the point.

Your loadout is streamlined, functional, not over the top tacticool, but not paintball-mask-crossdraw wearing noob either.
APPROVAL.

Which does in fact mean a lot coming from me. I'm usually kind of a dick :v:
Your vest is an OD FSBE AAV, kneepads are black Hatch Xtakk's, and your gloves seem like Oakley's but they don't seem to have the ventilation holes near the knuckles...
Anyway, mah MICH:

If you have a good eye you can spot the Gentex LWH chinstrap... ;)
And excuse the paint, the guy I bought (More like traded) it off of had a black paint job but he told me I could scrape it off so I did such.

Ah kid years. Still haven't removed that off my wall, had it since I was 9. :p
It's yellow 'cause the lighting in my room makes it so. It's more of an FDE/tan.
An assault loadout:

Why is your vest loaded so heavily to one side?
Also, sling-bag is meh.

I have a dump pouch in the mail to fill in the hole. I know the sling bag doesn't fit, I couldn't find my regular pack.
I cleared cookies and ended up on sweetie's account?
