i now know your actual face vandy
and you look nothing like i imagined you to be
[QUOTE=/Vandy/;37084893]Ultimate you are the chillest and the illest. It was a pleasure to meet you today and I hope we can meet up again sometime.[/QUOTE]
Next time I can go is probably on the 25, got a trip to Seattle from 11th to 19th. Likewise to you and Kill, had a great time. My buddies that I brought enjoyed it more than the official fields: HSP and Tac city.
we need a second ifap meetup and slay codkiddies at a public field
It was really fun today despite my preference for playstyle
All of you should come to the East Coast and have some good ol' fashioned New York airsoft c:
[QUOTE=The Ultimate;37084879]Its alot bigger than the actual tab so I thought people wouldn't really consider me as an impersonator or anything.[/QUOTE]
its also in color
but uh
some people could take offense to it, which is always a big problem w/ military patches

Still, I'd side with suggesting you swap it out. A spoof patch (like a forest ranger patch) would be hilarious, but when it comes right down to it it's not about the specific design of the patch being mistaken for impersonation. It's more about respect for the unit and the people who have earned the right to display the insignia, which is really irrespective of the actual design of the patch.
IMO unit patches are okay if it helps with the impression, but i say no to rank patches unless its required for some sort of milsim purpose (if that's happened before)

Darn, I really like and respect the rangers. How about if I move it onto my vest, where they don't wear it officially?
put it somewhere, make it obvious you're not trying to impersonate. unit patches are ok, skill tabs such as the ranger tab, no so much

also the bdus from soviet army stuff covered in random spetsnaz patches
my friend bought one of their insanely overpriced POS uniforms with poorly sewn patches and then tried to justify his purchase and tell me it was cheaper than soviet propaganda.
Another way I see it is like, if you used the "no unit patch" logic, then you might as well not make an impression at all then right?
Again, I think unit patches are okay and stuff, but God help you if I see this bullshit:

I'm prob. going to get dumbed for this
but I think that if it's a generic patch like Rangers or Army, I would think it is showing support for said branches of service, like wearing a shirt or hat that says USA. I think it shows pride and gratitude, but that's just my personal opinion.
maybe

the fucking soviet army stuff flora has a spetsnaz patch on the back used by police spetsnaz, has blood type tapes which the russian army never uses and depending on which one he got it might have a vityaz patch which is a total no-go

I'm not saying kill is an elitist or anything but before we took our pictures, he told me how to put my gear on and was synching straps and adjusting this and that. I didn't know so much work went into making his pictures.
It's like I was his little russian to be, and he was teaching me the ropes and trying to make me not look like a retart.
thx kill
no I p much set you up for the photo so you look more photogenic :I

he got the one with the generic MVD patch and ODON panther
a kid running around with an ODON patch is just as bad because Vityaz merged with Rus to become a battalion in ODON so they're still elite troops
[editline]4th August 2012[/editline]
if you're doing an MVD spetsnaz loadout you should just get a generic VV MVD patch like this

hes a grown married man sadly
but russianpatches is neat
im satisfied with my morpeh patches, 10000x better than the shitty sas patches
Am I the only one who likes the smell of propane, and the gas from the gas station?
[QUOTE=The Ultimate;37086716]Am I the only one who likes the smell of propane, and the gas from the gas station?[/QUOTE]
old gas from a motorcycle that hasn't been run in 30 years and the exhaust fumes that follow
gas station gas smell is ok (but not something I'd like to huff) and propane is kinda nasty
I had to take antibiotics once that tasted like propane and it was hideous

in grade 8 one of my friends brought the propane tank he used to fill up his WE 1911 and sprayed propane all over the classroom when the teacher was gone. And they didn't even notice.
