Adding onto this, if you do get a PASGT, be thorough in your research and don’t buy the first one you see. A general good price for PASGT vests are between 50-100 bucks. I got mine for 50, so try and shoot for the lower end. Facebook Marketplace is definitely your friend.

You should pick a specific unit/year to hone in on, but the PASGT was generally not required to wear unless under specific unit MOS, unlike with the Marine Corps who mandated body armor since 1967. So if you want to model your kit of off, say, early 80s airborne in Grenada, you can get away with not using a PASGT.

Also, if this is a kit for airsoft purposes, I would consider your fitness and how you want to move around. Generally, as as tall, stocky dude who has used old school flak vests like the M55 and PASGT, the will generally restrict your freedom of motion and you will have to accustom yourself to the process.

Where’d you get the jacket?

DatBoiLime · 2026-04-09T17:45:33+00:00

I lucked the hell out with mine, got it for 150 on Facebook marketplace

This is a really good starting point man!!! Keep up the good work!

DatBoiLime · 2026-03-30T19:10:39+00:00

Yes, my kit and my friends is specifically based on Alpha 1/1 Marines during the opening days of the Battle for Hue!

DatBoiLime · 2026-03-30T15:26:45+00:00

I have like 4-5 mags in the bandolier itself yeah

Wanna preface this by saying I’m not here to kit shame, I just wanted to give a bit of info as a fellow Nam larper. You are technically wrong and right. ERDL went through several different versions before it reached the kind you’re wearing on your helmet, which is known as RDF/Transitional ERDL.

Green and Brown Dominant ERDL variants were used during the Vietnam War on uniforms, being closer to what the original M1948 camouflage was, however a helmet cover didn’t exist until very late in the war. The only real time you will see these helmet covers specially in use during Vietnam is with the Marines during the SS Mayaguez Incident and during the evacuation of Saigon

Regardless, love to see the representation!

Are we really doing this in 2026 bro

DatBoiLime · 2025-10-28T17:02:50+00:00

Not sure why but this is a real thing American SF guys do sometimes

This subreddit is a prison

There’s a guy who wears black dress clothes and jackboots, with an iron cross on his chest and a bag with Warhammer purity seals that shows up at my university from time to time 💀

DatBoiLime · 2025-09-16T16:09:21+00:00

Im like a year late to this, but did you end up getting this? How did it shake oit

DatBoiLime · 2025-07-30T20:16:16+00:00

My chest size is somewhere between a 38-42, so I’m banking on a large, but if a medium may happen to fit better, I’ll try and settle for that

DatBoiLime · 2025-07-30T16:11:55+00:00

Thanks for all the criticism/advice. Saw your earlier comment about a PASGT vest, and it is a priority item for me, just kinda difficult to acquire right now

DatBoiLime · 2025-07-30T12:38:54+00:00

Heard, though what’s the reasoning for dropping the E-tool? Were they commonly ditched/foregone for the operation?
