Hello, I am looking for some trophies, could you help me

Still have mine. 97 to 07..

Nice combat kit! I have the same type of the kit used by the brits and I got myself a pair of Revision desert tan ballistic goggles. Instead of the webbing system, I have the waist coat with all the pouches

Tryna set my nato issue up now ,osprey 4 civilian armour

Hey man, I know a long while ago you've done some videos on the CQC MKIV Osprey, but if you could do new videos, just giving general info, and maybe showing the vest in a lot more depth than is available elsewhere? It'd be hugely appreciated :)

I believe the patch is for 27th Separate Guards Motor Rifle Brigade. Wikipedia entry has Brigade emblem which looks very similar, take a look. Name "Sevastopolskaya" is historical, the unit participated in taking of the Sevastopol from Germans in 1944. Soviets loved adding strange things to unit names.

was the owner saved or did he perish? i dont know if you can confirm. i hope he is well and healing

heard this was disliked during troop trials but they went with it anyway. should've got with TYR's stuff like the Danish army did

Sorry for disturbing i wanted an helmet but i have a dilemma Restoring to use it as a reenactor So for me the tickness of the helmet matters; like it has to feel real not like a plastic helmet Online original helmets are available but they are covered in rust.. would you say that its better to leave them? And buy a replica? Like removing rust will make the helmet lighter and weaker.. Maybe its just better to use a replica and leave the original helmet on the shelf? Or restoring only when the metal of the helmet is almost intact?

Great videos,perfect for uniform and equipment's research!

Did helmet nets see any use un Korea?

Plastique?😳 Rubba! Jman

This weapon had to be fired from the right shoulder and, because of this, the sling was fitted to the left side . Why are you fitting it on the right and why has nobody else noticed this??

Hey just so you know your videos really help people interested in osprey kit in England I hope you keep it up.

The utility strap that runs through the bottom loops of the pouches,how is it fastened at each end ?,my sons bought a set of PLCE for cadets but his doesn’t have that strap .

Blast from the past seeing this vid , got a warm fussy feeling remembering my webbing lol , good vid mate 👍

if you get any more russian helmet can you sent me one please

So...Who decided and why did they decide to put left handed sling mounts on a right hand only rifle?

Just snagged one of American Pipedream for $120 with a bunch of the pouches, thanks for the vid!

Where would one go about finding a uniform like this ?

"I" on the cover is the size helmet it's meant for. Your helmet is marked as a size "II," so while bigger, it did fit. Size III is the largest

This is Tajikistani or a other post soviet central Asian country unifrom with its original patches removed

Incredibly boring. 😰😰😰

I have a similar age McCord. 211C. It has war time OD 7 straps, and the Fixed bales were replaced during the war. So I want to keep it as is. Otherwise I'd love to put fix bales back on and od3 straps.

Also mk6 was in trials in the early 80s but wasn't fully adopted until about 85-86.

The unit patch on the left arm says "Sevestaposkaya" its just the adjective version of "Sevestapol" in feminine gender adjective. Maybe meaning sevestapolskaya mosrkaya pohotoa. (Sevestapol marines). Not some abbervieation. And the chaps name is Grachev. Otherwise interesting stuff to see mate

Unfortunately, i believe you've been 'scammed' more or less. While private purchase PASGT's do exist in the Russian forces (though, very very few), this being made in August 2022 means it'll be VERY unlikely this got into the conflict through Russia. Due to sanctions, there is no way military equipment like this could be sent to Russia from Greece. What i have seen happen (and seen a lot), is Ukrainian soldiers selling their own gear (both advertised correctly and as Russian stuff) to earn a profit since getting new gear for them usually costs less than what they ask for their stuff. This isn't a definitive 'yup, that's fake' message, rather just a message to let you know my thoughts as i have major suspicions regarding this helmet. Ofcourse, knowing who you bought it from also helps.

The second cap (ttsko) could be a fake due to the fact that Ukraine was still using this pattern up until the early 2000s and there is no point for a Russian soldier to be using a cap from the 90s when there are plenty of Chinese copies and original modern Russian caps widely available.

2 MSR not 2 MCP, inside the helmet the letter in Russian "DOTS"

How much does it cost online?! Where can I find a legit one online?!

Fairplay to the Russians on one account. Their camo blends into anything but urban environments really well.

If kukuri, how to fix it on the webbing

At 6.10. You are missing the leather "Brow Band" that fixes in with the 2 silver coloured press studs on the suspension. LS with that number is of 80's manufacture.

Nice

Very immformative cool

i have a desert dpm ospray mark 3 and its the same as urs

Tnx man, this was realy helpful 😊

The liner is from the dutch army from the sixties or seventies

I think le képi is not for Légion étrangère but Gendarmerie Mobile.

the rank is majeur/major…

got one of these for 20$ right before things went crazy in 2021 with surplus gear. no inserts but all the different add on pieces that you put the inserts in to. bought some arimid and uhmwpe sheets for really cheap, like 7$ for 4sq meters. thinking of remaking some of the inserts. plastic on top, like 5 layers, then 2-3 layrs of arimid, then 1 layer of plastic on the back, all pressed and ironed togeather. also got some level 3 uhmwpe plates for 14$ each. theyre just square back plates that are expired (late 2000s ital surpluss, not really level 3 by themselves my understanding, stops m855 greens like half the time on its own.) sent about a dozen of them to friends over in the trenches, theyre like 3.5lb each which is a crazy amount of weight savings for those guys who normally have to carry around 2x ~11lb steel plates. thats like -15lbs on the most vital kit in the trenches. think i might glue some hard comercial high traffic tiles or even sapphire watch glasses or just a layer of the highest grit size available garnet for waterjet cutters. you can get that offline for super cheap too, like 4$/lb. really like the british design. i think thats the benifit of having a small standing army, they can make changes like this quickly to their standard kit. USA is just not starting to go modular. thnks for the videos seeing what the whole kit should of included.

Always liked the EMR camo. I´ve seen also seen caps that where not as ornate like these, is that just a variation or does it have to do with the unit?

Just so you know low boots would be worn with the m44 uniform instead of the high boots

Video is great! I forgot how to do this and have written some notes to help. Thanks.

lovely poster. do you kiss your mannequin?

Sling attachment points are on the right side the rifle, they should be on the left.

I've got a osprey MK2 in woodland DPM and a Mk6 helmet only as a collector things have gotten a lot more expensive thanks too the mod giving surplus kit to Ukraine and as for army and navy shop's they have jacked up all of their prices

This video proofs how well MTP blends in on every environment. Even an living room carpet. 😂

I've got a mk 3 only i just can't seem too get the main front and back plaits for it

SD stands for Sicherheitsdienst what is Security Service. And the flower is an Edelweiss that qualities as a mountain soldier. So no link to KZ and Holocaust.
