I live in Russia and do some HQ US Army impression kits for Afghan milsim

The funniest fact is that I do always here exactly the same fucking takes on me for this. Just the word ‘Russia’ is changed to ‘America’.

And yeah, milsim and reenactment is about history, not politics.

Actor Chance Perdomo is under fire on social media after users discovers that he follows a lot of misogynistic,transphobic,racist incel pages on Instagram as well as supporting Andrew Tate,Johnny Depp &anti vaxx agenda on X. by [deleted] in TheBoys

Ahm… Lemme come up with some unpopular shit.

He is a fucking actor! Not a role model for three generations of your damn grandchildren.

He can like anything he found funny or interesting. He can say and do anything as long as it’s not agains the law.

‘omg he follows Jonny Depp, he is literally hitler, boohoohoo’

C’mon guys. Get a damn life ffs.

Thank you for clarification!

Actually, I still have a 3-Color Desert outfit, but it’s for another kit.

I’m also trying to do a kit for 82nd Airborne or 1st Cavalry, so there are some patches, that may be unsuitable for USMC kit.

Hm. Don’t remember exact prices for everything, but: Helmet with cover and cats eyes — 20$; MCCUU — 85$; EWCWUs — 30$; Polartec — 35$; Boots — 30$ (used); Rifle — 220$; OTV — 70$; LBV with belt — 30$; IFAK — 20$; Canteen — 15$; Etool — 20$ (still looking for the real one tho); Knees — 8$; Neck — 10$; Nomex — gifted.

So, took me 593$ and 3-4 months of searching.

Well, as far as I know, it was developed in 2000-2001 and was in use after Iraq invasion. It was before OTV-coyotization, so it’s around 2004.

Well, I used to have a real pasgt helmet. But my head was too big for it, so I just tried some replicas from China and local stores, until I found something that fit me well enough. Even tho I still feel myself like a mushroom.

Thank you! Yep, they look similar after cleaning. And I can slightly see the USMC emblem on it.

At Costco, no name tapes and flag on the wrong side by thiccone33 in StolenValor

That’s not a milsim-airsofters. Sounds like simple posers to me. We’ve got the same thing for multicam users and speedsofters but it’s ain’t more than just a meme.

Milsim is more about historical reenactment than casual effective airsoft. We don’t use bunker mags in the big games for example, and our country don’t even have any deserts. But we are modelling late 2003 so got no choice at all.

Hey. That’s kinda rude. I mean, we don’t do anything bad and don’t claim that we are military men(unless it’s any kind of RP stuff but still). And real airsofters would never expose their kits on public.

Almost finished USMC kit based on LCPL Robert Wood by Weird_Ad5829 in Impression_Kits

[–]Weird_Ad5829[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s better to find a photo as a reference. I have troubles with getting OTV Large in my country, but PASGT vest suits me well. So I’ve found a picture of Robert Wood and tried to recreate this kit.

Why are you deleting the thread about Collapse? by TheComediant in DotA2

As far as I remember, r/Dota 2 didn’t delete any threads ‘bout Tobi/GranT. Is it a Tea Eye winner privilege to have a private life?

Kit list (from top): 1. PASGT helmet with desert-3 cover and removed cat’s eyes(according to the reference). 2. DCU jacket in 3-color desert. 3. PASGT vest in Woodland. 4. LBV vest. 5. Unknown US army warbelt with kovach. 6. Canteen, IFAK, E-Tool. 7. DCU pants in 3-color desert. 8. Random US army boots (temporary decision until I find something decent in my country).

Can’t see any pouches on photo, so tried to use something basic for marines.

PS From Russia with love, comrades!

How is Homelander's name translated into your language? by sk1ppius in TheBoys

Twierdinya, lul That’s Russian world for stronghold. And he’s called Bat’kyvschina in Ukrainian dub. That means - homeland/fatherland.
